    Lets see what you are towing.

    Definitely need to invest in some air bags. Other than that it tows with lots of power to spare. Sucks gas pretty hard when towing but that's to be expected.

    Aftermarket programmer to adjust Ger Ratio

    Are there any disadvantages to changing the gear ratio? I currently have a 2016 with the Hemi but the ratio is at 3.21, so not the best for towing. From what I can see it is the same transmission model that has the 3.91 and 3.55 ratios.

    Tire/Towing Advice

    Not familiar with what's involved in changing the gears, sounds well over my head. I need new tires regardless so if the 20's won't make a difference then my best option may just be lower profile tires. I don't do any offroading so the extra tire size isn't needed. Thanks for clearing this up...

    Tire/Towing Advice

    Hey all, I have an 04 Ram with the 5.7 Hemi, 6.5 ft box, Quad Cab 4WD. The previous owner upgrade from the 245/70/R17 stock rims/tires to 295/60/R20 rims and tires. We tow a holiday trailer and I noticed that this thing crawls up the hills unless I give it some good gas, even mediocre climbs...

    Recommendation

    Boss 6.2" CD/ DVD Bluetooth iPod In-Dash Navigation Receiver (BV9386NV) The head unit shouldn't matter though, most of the microphones/cameras are universal are they not?

    Recommendation

    Hey, just bought an aftermarket head unit and looking for a microphone and backup camera/cable. Can anyone recommend one they use in their Ram? Ideally I'd like to mount the camera in the tailgate handle. Thanks

    Uconnect System Upgrade

    Thanks for the advice, sounds like a standard head unit might be best for me. Sounds like its just as easy to use navigation on your mobile device anyways. The concept sounds really enticing but not worth it yet it sounds like.

    Uconnect System Upgrade

    Makes sense, my biggest concern about the Android unit is navigation, how does it connect? Do you need to use your phone to provide a hotspot to the HU or does it have a standalone Navigation connection?

    Uconnect System Upgrade

    Thanks for the info. So you would recommend an Android HU over a simple one like Pioneer, kenwood etc? My biggest wants out of a HU are, Steering wheel controls, bluetooth audio/phone, backup camera and Navigation.

    Uconnect System Upgrade

    Does this mean I'm also hooped for other upgrades? Ideally I would like to add steering wheel controls, can I just take the ones out of another RAM of any year and run the wiring to my after market stereo? Or is it a lot more complicated than that.

    Uconnect System Upgrade

    Hello, I just bought a 2004 Ram 1500 and looking to upgrade the radio. There is a Uconnect system available on the local buysell and am wondering if anyone has any experience upgrading to these systems? I had one in my 09 Ram and loved it. I don't have the steering wheel controls so basically...

    Liking the price of stock 20's much better. Is there a way to tell if the Speedo has been adjusted to a certain tire size?

    Tire issue

    Hey guys, first post here. I just bought a 2004 Ram 1500 and it came with 295/60R20 tires. When checking the sticker on the door and by VIN lookup its showing that the size should be 245/70/R17. My question, if I wanted to get new tires down the road can I go back to a lower tire size to...
