    What DON'T you like about your RAM?

    Mines a 2014 express. Pretty simple, the way I like it with just a couple add ons. Crew cab, 4x4, 20in wheels, cold weather and tow packages. I bought it used in 2016 with 4500mi on it. Now have 82,000mi. No issues to speak of. To the things I don't like.......the headlights are terrible...

    Oil Change Interval

    Every 5k miles....no later. A quality oil and filter every 5k is just hedging the odds in your favor. Just my opinion. I tend to do maintenance on the early side of the schedule.

    Factory paint/Corrosion warranty

    My 2014 did the same thing in the same spot. The rear bumper is made of tinfoil and the ends vibrate pretty bad over bumps, mine do anyway. Paint doesn't have much flexibility so it chips off. The paint just above my radio antenna mount is cracked from the antenna whipping in the wind pulling...

    Dealership Nightmares

    I'm sorry....I'm not a professional mechanic, I did work for a number of years in my younger days ,for a small ,private repair shop where I learned a great deal about car mechanics. Ok, # 1...buying anything used IMHO with more then 70,000mi on it is a complete waste of money unless it's being...

    Whelp, I have a water leak

    Check your third brake light. Notorious for leaking. They loosen up, the gasket, if you want to call it that, rots and falls apart. Happened to me. Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk

    Plugs under dash

    From what I've read, all models use the same harness. So you have all the connections for all the options you can get regardless of what options came on your truck. So those plugs could be for any options you don't have. The best thing is you go buy the options you want and install them...

    Issues on startup

    Might be time for a new battery. These trucks do strange things with a weak battery. Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk

    Rear tires wearing quickly!

    This^^^...... pressures to high. Your wearing the center tread away. Try lowering it by 5psi and keep track of the wear pattern. If there's no change, lower it another 5psi and keep track of the wear pattern until it's even all the way across. Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk

    Used to love my Ram...now...I dunno..

    My grandfather was a master machinist who worked for Republic Aviation here on Long Island. He was also a marine diesel mechanic and expert at vacuum tube radio and television repair. Most of what I know I was taught by him. He'd tell me " if you drive it, fly it, ride it; know how to fix it". I...

    Used to love my Ram...now...I dunno..

    I kinda went down the "apples to oranges" path but, when you bought a car back in golden days, you were fully aware and fully expected to do maintenance on it. It was part of owning a car. Every 10-15000 miles you did a tune up. I remember helping my grandfather do it as a kid. I don't ever...

    You can leave the truck running and locked, if you're truck has keyed entry on the drivers door. Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk

    Small slide lock on face of key fob where it attaches to your key ring. Slide it over , remove fob from emergency key. Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk

    Used to love my Ram...now...I dunno..

    We expect 200K because when you pay 65-90k for a truck you damn well expect to get AT LEAST 200k miles out of it with normal maintenance. We relate cost with build quality, unfortunately the manufacturers don't. Profits over pride in their products. Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk
