    Apparant Defective Products Stampede Window Deflector by Real Truck

    For $100 I bought the Stampede flimsy plastic fake chrome window wind deflectors. They "rock" or fit unevenly when placed on the flat rubber above the doors as per the directions.

    2016 1500 Radiator Petcock

    I've watched several videos and they all show unthreading the hex head plastic petcock a few turns and radiator coolant is supposed to flow out of a round tube just below the petcock. Tried a 10mm allen wrench. Same result. Petcock unthreads about 1/4" then stops. Don't want to break it...

    Tyranny Issues 2016

    My 2016 tyranny failed at 60k. Can be hard to tell at first with slight slips often as warming up, mostly between 1, 2, and 3rd . I've found you can tell the most on cold mornings if you can start off on a somewhat downhill road, and accelerate lightly up to 30 mph. Acellerating under normal...
