    Did I install LED Bulbs Wrong

    When you buy LEDs, you have to get the correct ones, some are made for projection housings and some are made for reflection housings. Some just scatter light, I always checked with headlight revaluation to see which bulb worked best with which vehicle headlight housing.

    Piston slap

    Just a question, if this issue has been going on for a few years now with the 5.7L, why hasn’t Ram fixed the problem? I have had two 1500’s now, both with the 3.6L V6 neither of them have had any issues, both times I considered the V8 but always hear about people having issues with them. Used to...

    What can / cant be upgraded in trim levels?

    I’ve learned the hard way, it’s always cheaper in the long run to purchase the upgraded model than to buy and install all of the add ons you want to have.

    A KEY question

    Whenever I have traded in a vehicle I was asked to bring in the second set of keys if not on me. But seems to me for what they charge for these trucks a dealership could provide a second set, not like they have to pay retail for them. I bought a spare key & fob for a 2014 I traded in, still...

    Stock Goodyear SRA tires replace or run 'em poll

    I live in Florida where we get these torrential rains, steamy hot roads & sandy roads. I also go to Wisconsin one or two times a year in February and August, no problems with the snow or ice while driving. So the Goodyear SRA’s have served me well.

    Do you keep a tab of how much you have spent on mods for your RAM?

    Last truck I traded in they wouldn’t give me any credit for them, said they remove them before they sell it, that way they aren’t responsible for them.

    Dealership screwed up repair is their solution ok?

    Had a girl rear end my 2014 Ram 1500, they wanted to bondoe the tailgate to repair the dent, I said no, truck was only 2 weeks old, so I got new tailgate, painted to match and labor, just over $1000. Showed up on vehicle report due to cost exceeding $1000. So that hurt my trade value.
