    Why are manufacturers still putting chrome on trucks?

    Both my trucks have been Sport models specifically because I hate chrome.

    To ceramic coat or not?

    If you understand what it can and can't do, then it's completely worth it. Don't coat a car and then think that's it, you have a magic force field, don't need to maintain it, etc.

    How to clean 2015 Ram 1500 rims

    The only thing I agree with in this post is acidic cleaners can potentially discolor and etch into clear coated wheels.

    How to clean 2015 Ram 1500 rims

    Go towards a sealant or coating rather than a wax. Dirt tends to stick to waxes a lot easier than sealants or coatings.

    How to clean 2015 Ram 1500 rims

    Correct, but for it's intended purposes make sure the wheel has clear coat, otherwise it won't last as long nor protect as well.

    Tire burnout gunk cleaning

    This is what I use, works great. Griot's Garage has a similar spray and also works very well...

    Anybody use these ceramic spray,s

    To answer your question, a regular coating will work fine on decals and PPF. You can also use PPF/vinyl specific coatings. I personally like CarPro UK3.0 and Skin.

    2018 Ram 8.4 radio, Favorites acting weird for XM

    I logged in to look for this exact issue, mine started two days ago and I'm getting exactly what you're experiencing. It beeps as if a favorite is on and when I tap favorites the list is empty saying there's no favorite on right now, however I see favorites playing when scanning XM channels...

    Kid in a candy store...

    We have one here also. I went to the grand opening not knowing what they carried, when I saw it was all CG, I walked right back out.

    Best way/products to remove clear coat scratches

    They'll need to be compounded/polished out. If they are very deep, as in you can fell them with your fingernails then they may not come out completely.

    Clear plastic on sideview mirror scratched

    You can use whatever polish you use on your paint. if they are deep then step it up to a compound and/or heavier cut pad.

    2018 Sport won't start all of a sudden

    If it wasn't still under warranty I'd definitely go and get a better battery in there

    Surface Scratches

    Go with ultimate compound or ultimate polish if it's really light scuffing. Easily done by hand with a microfiber towel (short nap side) or microfiber application pad. All can be found at Wal-Mart.

    2018 Sport won't start all of a sudden

    So I called customer care and they sent out a tow truck to tow it to the dealership. He jumped it to be sure it's the battery and it started so I drove to the dealership anyway to have it all checked out. It wouldn't start up while in the service line (lol) so they installed a new battery...

    2018 Sport won't start all of a sudden

    Thanks for the quick reply. I'm assuming it's under warranty so I'll let the dealership replace it on Monday. Do I call customer care and they come tow it or do I have to get it towed in?

    2018 Sport won't start all of a sudden

    So I just tried to remote start my truck, and instead of two blinks it did one and just sat there. I got in the truck, interior lights and stereo all work. I press the remote start and all I hear is a click and then nothing happens, no turnover or anything. It's not been driven for about 4 or...

    You won't see CG products used by top level Pro's...there's a reason for that. I don't use a single CG product myself.

    Why buy running boards

    I bought mine so I don't scrape across the seat as much getting in, causing premature wear on the leather. Also, you never know when a passenger, especially a female, will need it on the other side.

    Ceramic Coating. $$$$$$

    Bed liners are a little beyond porous, like most plastic trim. You can get away with coating trim but I really doubt coating a bedliner, especially spray on, will do much of anything.

    Ceramic Coating. $$$$$$

    You waste the coating. It needs to be applied on a smooth, non-porous surface.

    Trucks without OEM towing package

    The only reason I am considering the dealership route is so it all goes under the factory warranty, otherwise I'd definitely try and piece together a cheaper option.

    Trucks without OEM towing package

    Well I have the socket thing in my bumper already, and it seems to already be wired up for towing, just doesn't have the actual towing package stuff. It's literally just the hitch install, controller install, computer flash and parts. I'm pretty sure he's hooking it up with a discount so if...

    Trucks without OEM towing package

    So my dealership quoted me about $750 to install the class IV hitch, trailer break controller, and to flash computer. Does that sound about right?
