    ICBC writes off 2022 EV due to cost of battery replacement

    Not just this car. Watch youtube and tesla cam and you see a car with very little damage get totaled because the battery was touched. My wifes Mach E was hit, I added a picture so you can see the damage. That wound up being almost 9K worth of damage. The headlights on this car are $1600 each...

    Dealership turned off dashcam before service

    Both the Ram and Ford dealer I used do not touch my dash cam. The FCW save my wife from having serious damage done to her Mach-e when a guy made a illegal left turn from the right lane right in front of her. The car reacted to that and stopped the car before she could even process what was...

    Cannot get Parts

    Thanks guys for all the suggestions, and tricks. I made my trip and my family is happy and safe. My truck is not my daily driver and being on the east cost I may only have 1 more camping trip. Once the RV is put away I have all winter to figure out what the best course of action is and best...

    Cannot get Parts

    No, it was the shock. You have to remember the was no shock at all on the passenger side. SO every time that wheel hit a bump it would cause the drive wheel to lose traction kicking in the anti lock and making the whole suspension act weird. Now add the trailer and the weight it was even...

    Cannot get Parts

    I know I can drive it if it was just the truck, but I am pulling a 8000lb trailer and my family in the cab. With the trailer it was bouncing all over.

    Cannot get Parts

    It is the strike, they have over 40 repair orders all waiting for parts. I saw the stack on her desk and the line of cars/trucks and SUV in the lower lot waiting. I was able to get the truck repair with after market shocks. I feel bad for the people still waiting to get their vehicle fixed.

    Cannot get Parts

    So on Wed I was getting my truck ready for a camping trip and I notice a puddle of oil next to my rear tire. Looked under the truck and the shock is coated with oil and oil dripping from lower shock mount. Went to Autozone but they have none in stock and none in the warehouse. Called my RAM...

    Should I get a Diesel

    Tell that to the transmission, I cannot stop it from happen unless I put in "N". I use the brakes when I go downhill and the more I use them the more the truck downshifts. Its stupid, I dont need the transmission to do it for me but it extremely aggressive when its cold.

    Should I get a Diesel

    I dont know what I am going to do. The truck is back and the ticking when starting warm is gone but it still does it when the engine is cold and the trans is cause the RPM to go up due to engine braking. There is nothing I can do about that since I live on top of the hill and the entrance of my...

    Should I get a Diesel

    These are all the reasons I did not get one in the first place. I got the truck back yesterday. I talked to the tech directly and he said it was the drivers side bank, couple of the lifters were not keeping up pressure and were bleeding down. He replaced the bank and it should be good. He...

    Should I get a Diesel

    I only take it to the Ram dealer, and its the full synthetic. They dont list the manufacturer on their invoice but if its at the dealer who sold me the truck it should be the correct oil for the truck. I know its not redline but I dont want any issues from the dealer or Ram stating I did not...

    Should I get a Diesel

    Yes I know, but I did not get a diesel at first because when not towing or going to work (WFH 90%) the truck sits. What I am really asking is getting a diesel smart since the trailer I have is not real heavy and the fact wont be giving it alot of chances to regen. I guess would I be hurting the...

    Should I get a Diesel

    Hi As you may know I have a 2022 2500 with the 6.4L and 4.1 rear that pulls my Bullet 260RBS. The trailer has a gross weight of 7600lb and a measured tongue weight of 1100lb. We upgraded to the 2500 because my payload was over on my 1500. Some of you know my truck is now in the shop after...

    2019 2500 6.4L engine blown up at 95K miles?

    Just sucks, a $70K truck should not need engine repair at 10K miles. I would understand if I rode it hard and never change the oil but I dont run it hard and the oil been changed every 5K miles at the dealer. Even when I tow my camper I dont push it hard. I dont understand, I had 2 1500 (2004...

    2019 2500 6.4L engine blown up at 95K miles?

    Not sure it was the roller, truck only has 10K miles on it with 37 idle hours and 330 driving hours. It also did not make noise at operating temp and when driving, only idle and under operating temp. They made it sound like it was a collapsed lifter. Like I said once They are done and finish...
