    Need help with sound when we vonnect our android

    Not a fan of electronics in vehicles so when we ordered our '21 Ram 3500 we bought the minimum to get adaptive cruise. We have just started playing with attaching our galaxy phones (a5 / a13) to have google maps come up on our 8 inch monitor. The problem is that the voice comes out REALLY...

    Tow mode or not ?

    Thanks all. I should mention that i downsized from a cat 3126b with a lot less torque / hp and a much heavier truck. My initial thought was tow mode in the hills and normal otherwise but lower rpm does not necessarily mean better mileage. Still adjusting to all this new tech.. :)

    Tow mode or not ?

    Hi, I have a '22 3500 w/the aisin trans w/tow package. I pull a 12K 5th wheel. Hauled my 5th on a 10 hour trip last week. Cannot decide if I should be using tow mode or not. It seems to rev about 500 rpm higher in tow mode but I don't see or feel much of a difference other than that. My...

    Overloaded. keep your speed at 65. Biy air bags for the rear, go to 10 ply tires , load level hitch with a sway bar. safe travels.

    In Canada,, you can only get adaptive cruse in the ford if you got to platinum..read over 100k and you cannot get rear air bags..and Ferds are rougher..and my wife says "fugly". We really like our 3500 HO. . We downsized from a sport chassis .. so *any* pick up seat sucks. And the turning...

    Unstable Towing with our 1500

    I used to pull a 25 floor hybrid..and I had done a bunch of stuff.. including going up to 10 ply tires..that I felt I was akways on the cusp of being under trucked and in the wind, I was. There is a lot of sail space on your trailer. You can fiddle and do a bunch of stuff to your truck but I...

    Delivery Delays on New Trucks

    I have had my Vin for about 6 plus weeks for my 3500 HO. So I am into my 4th month now. Dealer says truck is built with the exception of chips.. thank goodness we are not in a panic... I am thinking that we are in too far with covid for that to be used as a. excuse..

    Air compressor for rear air bags ..can I?

    Taking delivery (sometime I hope) on a '21 3500 HO with rear air bags.. Can I tap into the air system and use it as an general air compressor or does this have a short or small duty cycle. I am downsizing from a class 5 frtliner. Thanks.
