    Pentastar vs Hemi, which should you choose?

    Lots of good info here. I'm in the same boat as you were. I traded my 18 Ecodiesel Ram Laramie for a 21 Accord Touring 2.0T. I don't miss the gen 2 Ecodiesel...but I do miss the rest of the truck. I agree with your Accord review. I can't find a comfortable seating position. I hate that I can't...

    I'm new to all this and I searched the thread before asking but all I'm looking to do right now is clear a check engine light on my 2018 1500. I have the bypass cable, OBD MX, and app. Just wanting to know what to do in the app. Thanks for any help!

    Diesel Fuel additives and filler neck frustration

    I keep a longneck funnel in a plastic bag in my rambox. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00RBWX7HS/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_i_WC7LDbTW4TNHF I get what you're saying about not putting it in the cab. My whole rambox smells like chemicals.

    Chrome Fuel Door & More Maybe a little Cheesy?

    Which door did you go with? I'm having a tough time finding one for my EcoDiesel.

    Chrome Fuel Door & More Maybe a little Cheesy?

    Not any cheesier than guys who black everything out. But I agree with the post above, the window deflectors are a bit much.

    Telescoping steering wheel

    Wait I thought the 19s had a tilt/telescoping wheel? I was upset to find out my 18 doesn't telescope. I guess I overlooked that on the test drive. I just assumed it did.

    To buy a new truck or not?

    That 2019 is going to feel like a spaceship compared to your 2004.

    help me choose: headlights - fender flairs

    The flares since you have the wheels spaced out already.

    Looking to change factory speakers

    I installed Infinity Reference speakers in mine. The 9632ix's are a nice 2-way speaker (6x9) and come with spacers. Or bump up to the 9633ix which are 3-ways. The 3032cfx are the 3.5"s for the dash. I didn't use resistors or bass blockers.

    Can't listen to texts since wife added her iphone ?!?!?!

    - Have you restarted your phone in awhile? - Maybe you received an Android update recently that affected the Bluetooth version. - Not saying this is your problem, but when I got my 2018, I had to adjust my phone's Bluetooth protocol through the developer settings. On your Android, go to...

    A trunk for my Ram

    It looks very well-made. But I'm not digging the design. You've essentially got no easy access to the rest of the bed.

    Alpine audio speaker upgrade ?

    Oh no no not at all. I thought it was just like any other badge; light adhesive backing able to be warmed up and peeled. It stuck to the black plastic piece so well that I started destroying that. So I ripped that out too. Now I have 3 small holes where my Alpine badge used to be (from the...

    Alpine audio speaker upgrade ?

    I just used a utility knife. But I did this all with the trim piece removed from the truck.

    Alpine audio speaker upgrade ?

    The badge is glued to a black plastic piece with three "pegs" that snap into the trim piece. It would be very difficult to peel off the badge without bending it. I should have just lived with it being off-center.

    Alpine audio speaker upgrade ?

    Reviving this thread. I have the Alpine 9 speaker system in my 2018 and want to replace all the speakers. So far I have replaced all three dash speakers with Infinity Reference 3032cfx 3.5". So far, sounds good. My next step is to replace the rear doors with infinity reference 9633ix 6x9 3-ways...

    Subwoofer swap, and TPMS changes COMPLETE!

    Just curious, do you have the factory Alpine system? I'd like a cleaner bass sound and this seems like a cheap upgrade. Also what's your music source; Bluetooth, iPod, or USB?

    Window Tint 5% All Around 50% Windshield

    Looks great but I'd be blind as a bat on country roads at night (no other lights besides the headlights)

    Bronze Rims on Granite Crystal Metallic

    For the OP, I like the bronze wheels so long as there is no chrome on the truck. Otherwise the bronze and the chrome clash.

    Not sure about these

    Yep get them color matched and they'll look great

    Ford owner thinking about a Ram, tips?

    If I didn't have the Ecodiesel I would have got the Pentastar v6. Especially since I also use mine as a commuter. I've never had the engine in a Ram but I had it in a Durango. It was more than adequate for around town and highway cruising.

    Tradesman, basic yet good platform to build upon ?

    I wish they made a luxury interior (power everything, sound system, leather, etc) with a basic exterior. I love my Laramie's interior but could easily do without big wheels and all the chrome.

    Buying a 2016 RAM 1500 Diesel. Good idea?

    I love mine, but bought it new and now have 11k miles on it. I've learned to check the coolant overflow reservoir under the hood. If it is low, there is probably a leak through the EGR cooler. If it is anything but purple there is possible soot leaking in there from, again, the EGR cooler. As...
