Exhaust manifolds backordered and heat shields "Impossible" to get?
I had a manifold, driver side mirror, and fuel tank issue, all covered under warranty on my '19. My preferred dealer is rural, and I did not buy the truck from them (they have limited used inventory because, well, who doesn't...and the one I needed they just didn't have. It took a total of 9...- Reaver

Will I regret not getting the V8 even if I don’t tow? Debating which truck to get…
It's possible, especially if you live in a mountainous area. The 6 has to work much harder than the 8 climbing mountains. I had the *same* calculated mileage between a Nissan Frontier with a 4.0 V6 and a Cadillac Escalade EXT with the 6.0L V8. The Frontier had to work damn hard to clear some...- Reaver

RamBox worth getting?
Ordered them specifically for my 2013 Ram because it was my towing/camping rig. LOVED having them. I have a utility trailer for hauling stone, mulch, etc so the truck was mostly for towing and hauling firewood. One side of the bed held a couple camping chairs, an axe, jumper cables, a tarp, a...- Reaver

3.21 vs 3.92 Gear Ratio...will not be towing much.
Bottom line: in a 4x4 crew cab short bed: 3.21 gear ratio gives you a towing capacity of 8,220 lbs 3.92 gear ratio gives you a towing capacity of 11,320 lbs If you're towing less than 8,220 on a regular basis and want the best gas mileage, get the 3.21 ratio. They are the standard ratio and...- Reaver

Heating and the 3-way valve
Thanks for the info...that's about the only mention about the valve that I'd found when I started digging into it. There's a few links on where to get it and how to change it, but almost no mention about the failure modes...what happens when it quits working? It's funny that no one seems to... -

Heating and the 3-way valve
I recently noticed my '13 Ram Bighorn (5.7L with the 8 speed transmission) wasn't blowing much more than luke warm heat. It got to be noticeable once temperatures got down to freezing temperatures and below. This is the conventional manual heating system by the way, not auto climate. I... -

DO YOU HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOUR DEALERSHIP
I can give a big thumbs-up to Kuntz Motors in Mahaffey, PA. It's a small dealership the middle-of-nowhere central PA, but they are straight-shooters on both the sales AND service ends. I can't say enough good about them, and I'm hard to impress when it comes to dealerships. I'd rather have a...- Reaver

RAM Mount w/ adhesive for the cell phone?
I have an adhesive RAM Mount just like you're looking at. The adhesive is fine...mine's been on there over 2 years and is still stuck solid. The bezel itself is a little flimsy and will flex a bit over bumpy terrain (bumpy terrain as in any Pennsylvania road). If I put the ram mount on and...- Reaver

LockPick for 2013. Anyone tried it?
They claim it will work. I inquired about a week ago and got this email in response: The C8 v.2 is still in pre-production; HOWEVER, Great News! The 2013-14 Ram with the NEWER all-touchscreen 8.4” Media Center Radio is completely compatible with the CHR558 v.2 LockPick and is AVAILABLE NOW...- Reaver
