    Looking into a better stereo system.. need advice

    Hi, sorry.. been a rough week or two. Thanks for the reply. Update: Decided I had enough with the Dodge and am going to get rid of it.. heh I have loved Dodge in the past, but one too many issues. Will post about it in a new thread as it is not really about this, but wanted to say thanks. Russ

    Looking into a better stereo system.. need advice

    Hey guys, So, the stock stereo system is.. well, lacking.. heh I was debating upgrading it, but so much ties into it, worried I will lose some functionality. Anyone have a good recommendation, or possible models etc to avoid? I went to Crutchfield and I saw the Pioneer that I had added to my...

    2018 Ram keeps stalling/dying

    It is okay, I took the truck to them and they are looking at it. I explained to them that I do not expect them to magically fix it. I suspect they may tell me "they did not find anything"... that is fine, so long as we eventually fix it. Not finding anything just means it will happen again. So...

    2018 Ram keeps stalling/dying

    I hear ya, and if this were not under warranty, I would do a lot of that. What I do not want to do is fiddle with something then get into a "you messed it up so..." discussion. So long as it is under warranty, not "breaking the seal" on anything. That being said, now that I know it is not...

    2018 Ram keeps stalling/dying

    I do have a fob. I only have... 3 other keys on it? Should not be an issue, but I will look at it just in case, thanks! Also, along the same lines, I have had the cruise control just shut off at random times. Again, I thought I had touched something or whatever.. but, it is now seeming as if...

    2018 Ram keeps stalling/dying

    Hi guys, So, I thought it was my imagination. I thought it was my knee hitting the keys and accidentally turning the truck off. I just turned a corner in downtown Austin, on my way to work, and the truck just flat out died right there, mid turn. My knee was nowhere near the keys and I did not...

    3rd party Center Console 2018 RAM

    Hello all! So, the cup holders in my 2018 RAM 1500 are plain silly. I hate that I have to reach over to get my drink on the passenger side. Anyone else annoying with them? Is there a good solid choice for swapping them out with a better design? Thanks! Russ

    Leer vs A.R.E. ?

    I just ordered an A.R.E. top and it came with everything you discussed except I opted to not get the headliner due to pet hair. I debated it, but decided to get some non-skid and paint match the spray in bed-liner then paint the cap interior to match. Other than that, I got a V-Series with the...

    Rear defrost

    Well, like I said, don't need it, just was unaware a truck with every bell and whistle known to man did not have it, but had a button that the owner's manual said was for it. So... Nothing to see here.... R

    Rear defrost

    Well, the salesman came over last night and delivered the check for the truck cap. I am not sure if the rear frost will be needed as I will have a cap on the back in a month but the point I made to him, over and over, is the fact that every time I drove the truck, there was a new "surprise!" and...

    Rear defrost

    Holy cow, I just ripped into the salesguy. I left a message for the Sales Manager. I was told he was in a meeting. Less than 3 minutes later, I get a call from the Sales Guy. I was like, "'Y', are you 'X'? Did I call you? Did I leave a message for you? No, I left a message for 'X'. YOU are the...

    Rear defrost

    Yea, I emailed the sales person this morning to let me know when they have the check cut they owe me and I'll swing by and give him the key to the other truck that he left in my truck......no reply.. heh. Maybe I should just mail it to Chrysler saying "here ya go!" lol

    Rear defrost

    I know, I saw another thread that spoke about this, but did not want to revive a 3-5 month old thread. Just had the chance to use my "Rear defrost" today on the way to work and.......no rear defrost. Service department tells me that a sliding window cannot have a rear defrost. I did not argue...

    A little whining, so I can get it off my chest.. lol

    Well, I guess I got what I needed, a really good deal. Beyond that, I am told they have a few good folks in the service department. I do not blame them as I have never met them. It is what it is, and I am glad I got it off my chest. For now, waiting on them to let me know I can pick up the...

    Leer vs A.R.E. ?

    And I totally get and appreciate that. To me, I think both look awesome heh. I think "cheaper" may not be the right word, different would probably be better, since the other windows look more like a SUV, but I own a truck and so, well.. I wanted it to not only be cost efficient, but also look...

    Leer vs A.R.E. ?

    I can respect that. Different people, different experiences.. heh. We will see how it is. I mean, don't have anything now, so something is an improvement imo. I just know I want my dogs to have a safe place to travel, and preserve my interior ;) I am sure it will be fine either way, but you are...

    What to do first.... heh

    Welp.. I sat in my wife's 2008 car with BOSE speakers and a Pioneer stereo and I could blast my iphone.. but, I cranked the new Ram and.. was not that impressed.. heh.. but... I have a little cash.. not a lot, so... what all did you do to your 2018 Ram Crew to beef up the sound? Don't need to...

    Leer vs A.R.E. ?

    Eh... I opted for a V series. Someone made a great point of the fact that the replacement windows on the Z were high.. heh.. and the Z was a lot higher cost :p.. but, the Z is really nice, and that deal you got must have been sweet :) I am told the keyless fob will not work with the V series :( R

    A little whining, so I can get it off my chest.. lol

    Okay.. so.. going to throw this out there as, frankly, I think it is time to move on and close the book on this dealership, but I need to get all this off my chest, so.. heh. I am new to this forum, and sorry if my first posts are negative, I have been so so so spoiled with my last truck and...
