    Looking for advice/opinion on buying a truck

    Well, I'm a Longhorn guy myself and on my third one (had 2013 - 2017 - 2020 model years) ... Like you, I too was a GM guy for years but when I saw the Longhorn model back in 2013 I knew that's what I was going to buy ... In my 2017, I had an issue with the fuel pump shorting out but it was...

    Do you have electric brakes on your trailer, and was it hooked up when you tried to recreate the problem ?? I'm not an expert on vehicle wiring by any means, but that could be the common denominator ...

    My new RAM

    The exact same color scheme and features as my 2020 Laramie Longhorn ... The only difference I see is you have the suede seat inserts, and the top part of my steering wheel is wood ... I love the color scheme and the multi-function tailgate ... ENJOY ...

    What do you call a completely dead 2020 with 18k?

    Had a similar thing happen to my 2013 RAM Longhorn ... After two dealerships looking at it, it turned out the battery was done ... This was just two weeks after I bought the truck new ... Dealer replaced the battery and it was fine for about a month and the low battery alert started coming on...

    Looks like I'm never buying RAM again...

    I just read an article a couple of days ago about the new Hurricane inline six they are going to put in the RAM ... There is a standard version and a High Output version ... The HO version mileage is a bit worse than the 5.7 Hemi and the standard version is only slightly better or the same...

    4-Corner Air Suspension

    I have had three RAM Longhorns (2013 - 2017 - 2020) and all had air suspension ... I never had any issues with any of them and I live in Canada ... I admit most of my driving is around the city and highway, and my theory is, those who go off-roading are the ones who have the majority of problems...

    Uconnect fees

    I have navigation on my 2020 Longhorn and it works fine ... Never heard of a $600 activation fee and I do not use the Uconnect app ... If my Nav system stops working I always have my iPhone for backup ...

    2025 Ram Rebel Air Suspension

    I'm on my third RAM Longhorn and all 3 had air suspension, and I have not had any problems with any of them, and I'm up here in Canada ... I can't say for sure but those who have had problems might be the ones who do some off-roading ... My driving is mainly around town or the highway ...

    Battery Replacement Coming Soon

    I put a NorthStar AGM in my 2013 RAM when the OEM battery died in just a few weeks of ownership (truck was bought new) ... I later traded my 2013 for a new 2017 and had the dealership take the OEM battery out of the new truck and put the Northstar in ... That battery lasted another 3 years and...

    Air suspension vs. no- major difference on 2021 1500?

    I've had three RAM Longhorns all with air suspension and never had a problem with any of them ... I've seen a lot of comments on here about problems in cold weather but I have had no issues, and I'm in Canada ... I use my truck mainly for city and highway driving and I did have a boat at one...

    Are dealer oil changes required for warranty?

    Not sure ... The only difference between the two grades is the pour rate ... -63 degrees F for 0W20 and -57 degrees F for the 5W20 ... The engine flow would be a bit quicker with the 0W20 in colder climates such as the northern U.S and Canada ... I think the 0W20 recommendation just came out for...

    Are dealer oil changes required for warranty?

    In one of your previous comments you stated ... " it's a little confusing when I google dexos it seems like some kind of GM standard or is it an additive?" when referring to what a mechanic said to you ... I thought you were looking for info on the "dexos" blend, ergo I posted the explanation...

    Are dealer oil changes required for warranty?

    I'm familiar with DEXOS ... It is a blend that General Motors recommends in their 2011 and up vehicles ... This article can explain it ...

    Tailgate ajar

    I have the multi-function tailgate as well and the trick is to keep an eye on the third brake light ... If it stays on after you close the gate it will show ajar on the dash ... Just try again until the brake light goes out and you're good to go ...

    Why 22" Wheels?

    I bought my 2020 Laramie Longhorn new and it came with the optioned 22-inch tires ... I find they ride just fine but then again, I also have the air suspension that might make the difference ... I had 20-inch on my previous two RAM's which also had the air suspension as well and I haven't...

    Last Ram I will ever purchase

    I received a letter from FCA Stellantis indicating the third brake light warranty extension ... I assume every owner would have received it ... But it appears in your case, you did not ... Here is the letter I received ... I blacked out my VIN, name and address for privacy, security reasons ...

    Looking for a winter tire or are the Pirelli Scorpion Verde sufficient

    Like Barr0208 stated try an ALL WEATHER tire ... I ran them on two of my RAM's and never had a problem with the snow up here in Canada ... I used Cooper's but other manufacturers also make them ... Then you don't have to worry about semi-annual changeovers ... I put a set of all-weather BF...
