    Sticky brake pedal?? Anyone ever experience?

    If you have a 2013, and the calipers have never been rebuilt or replaced, think about how many times they have cycled! Raybestos use to have on their website that rubber hoses should be replaced every 3-5 years! I don't know anybody who does that! (Including me and I can crimp my own hoses in...

    No crank no start

    How old is your battery? I had a 2016 Sport, was running errands all day, came out after stopping at a shop, no start, even with a jump box, and tried to jump it off another vehicle. Nothing! Put in a new battery and started right up.

    2016 Hemi 5.7 Noise

    I've NOT tried this yet, but I read somewhere that instead of using 0w20 oil, use a synthetic 5 w 30 oil and that is supposed to help or cure the Hemi tick. Again, I have NOT tried this, yet! The story "supposedly" is that the 5.7 Hemi has been around for over 20 years. Mopar did not re-invent...

    Owners Manual

    I do not like the electronic method either! I did find on the Ram site they do offer a printed owners manual for a "mere" $50.00! You would think that for what they are asking for these trucks, they could "splurge" and throw one in the glove box!

    Ram Boxes

    Yeah, at close to $1000 it won't be happening! NOT that important to me! But if it was supposed to be part of the truck, I'd be pushing for it. Had one on my 2016, never used it.

    Ram Boxes

    Does the 2024 Ram 1500 Limited with Ram Boxes come with the cargo divider (bed divider) as part of the Ram Box cargo management system? I just purchased a 2024 Limited with Ram Boxes and did not realize that was not with it. So far it drives a bit nicer than my 2016 Sport! Thanks in advance Jim

    Truck driven with Washer fluid in coolant.

    That will not cause any issues, I did that to mine the first time I added washer fluid, I never drained the system, I've just driven it.

    Brake's, make sure your checking the rears also.

    On my 2016, I did the rear brakes a couple 3 years ago, still have not touched the front brakes, just crossed 100K on mileage! I have new rotors and pads, but they are still in the boxes in the garage. I might make up some braided stainless lines when I change them out. So far, only 1 set of...
