    Diesel in low range steep grade E brake question

    Today we took the truck up and down Mt Washington (NH). Going down in first gear tow/haul with the E brake on wasn’t keeping the truck slow enough without leaning on the brakes. So I put it in 4 wheel low and 3 rd gear was just about the right speed without hitting the brakes. But a few times...

    How to adjust tailgate latch?

    I had the tailgate recall done but after a month it’s much worse that before. Sometimes I can’t get the tailgate open. I lock/ unlock several times and push in while I’m triggering the handle. Sometimes that works sometimes not. I’m on a summer long Rv trip towing my TT and the local to me...

    Wrong time shown in display

    2021 2500 Bighorn. Display shows central time when I first start the truck. After about 2 minutes it finally changes to Eastern time. We were in the Central time zone a few weeks ago, but it was working fine then and also when we were in Mountain time zone. I can't find anywhere to change it...

    2021 2500 Bighorn Radio didn't shut off

    2021 2500 Bighorn. Today the radio did not shut off when I opened the driver's door. Or when I tried using the volume button. Radio stayed on for 10-15 minutes. Tried starting and shutting down several times but it was in a funky mood and wouldn't shut off. Got frustrated since i just towed my...

    Found a key fob in my truck

    This morning a passenger found a key fob in my truck stuck between the console and passenger's seat. I bought the truck in February so it's been there since then. Funny how we never saw it before and we have over 8K miles on the truck. Tag says it's from a 21 1500black tradesman. I emailed a...

    Sorry but I'm leaving

    Only because I just bought a 2021 2500 Bighorn crew cab with the Cummins. Will be known as "Sarge" since it's olive green pearl. The 17 pulled our TT fine but it was pretty overloaded for week long trips and this summer were planning to travel all summer hauling the TT out west. Generator, solar...

    Spare tire winch question

    Don't like the temporary spare because I'm going to be towing a travel trailer soon. So I got some new (other than SRA) tires today. 3 weeks ago I got a brand new SRA under the road hazard warrantee. So I scored a 20 inch chrome rim and had that SRA mounted to be my spare. Almost the same...

    Rim fit question

    Will 20 inch rims from a challenger etc fit a 2017 Ram bighorn? Are they the same width? Is the bolt pattern the same? They look the same in the picture of the ad I’m chasing. Looking for a spare that I can put a real tire on for a spare instead of the Mickey Mouse stock spare. Thanks
