    How much off '18 MSRPs...

    ...are y'all paying (not just seeing since we all know advertised and actual numbers usually vary)? I'm in the market for a 2500 or 3500 and they seem to be all over the place. I'm curious what you new HD owners have paid for '18s during the last few months. Thanks! TXCOMT

    Test drove an '18 Tradesman CTD...

    ...yesterday and I liked it! This particular model, with the off-road package and a 6'4" bed, drove really well on the street and freeway frontage roads. While I didn't try any burnouts, steep climbs or heavy trailers with it, I was surprised at its manners. I've read comments here about it...

    Why should I...

    ...trade my '16 Reb for a '17 Tradesman CTD with the off-road package? Well, I'm telling myself it's because we're closing on 12 acres west of Fort Worth in a couple of days and need a "farm truck" that'll haul stuff to build a barn and house! Am I whack or what? This Reb is the truck I told my...

    Need a laugh (dealer service prices)? UPDATED

    Care to see some service pricing from a Dallas-Fort Worth-area CDJR dealer? While my Reb was getting the U53 recall work done today, I asked her about swapping fluids in the t-case and diffs...here's the response I got a few hours ago, along with other "recommended" work: Front Differential...

    Deep headlight scratches...repair or replace?

    Well, the dang brick trim wouldn't move out of my Reb's way while getting in the garage the other day...got a few deep scratches in my driver's side headlight lens. Are there any products y'all have used to fill 'em in or should I look into getting a replacement? TXCOMT

    Anybody ever do this?

    This being cutting down a tube step designed to fit a 2500 for a 1500...I know there's 20 inches between 'em, but I figured a good shop could do such a cut-and-weld job pretty easily, right? I ask because I may be able to score a deal on some 2500-sized Go Rhino Dominators. I guess that only...

    So how was Mopar Fest?

    Was Sealy really sunny on Saturday like predicted? Did Moe's race Ram run down the competition? was the food from McBroom's smoker sensational? Comments and pics here, please, for those of us missed it! TXCOMT

    U74 parts are in...

    ...or so says the My Mopar app! Got the notice over the weekend, so I booked an appointment at my local Ram dealer for Wednesday. Although I've had no issues with the tailgate on my '16 Reb, I'd rather get this done than ignore it. TXCOMT

    Broadcast sheets...show 'em here!

    So just a quick explanation first...a broadcast sheet is what the assembly line folks (Warren Truck, in my '16 Rebel's case) use to help 'em build vehicles. Ever since I got my first car, a '66 Mustang coupe, I've looked for these elusive things hiding in my rides, but I never found one until...

    FINAL UPDATE: U61 recall work done, no more cruise control!

    So here I was ready to heap praise on my local Ram dealer for the quick U-61 recall service it did on my '16 Rebel, but now I must throw shade! Why? Because my cruise control doesn't seem to work! Funny, since it worked perfectly before it went in! Now, sadly, it will not engage. Has anyone...

    Should I buy this...

    ...one? Figured it'd make a good third vehicle to goof around in... https://www.auto.com/cars/ram-1500-sport-2016-3c6jr6ct3gg370729 Just kidding...I need all that backseat space my '16 Rebel offers, plus my better half would kill me if I brought Hellfire home! TXCOMT
