    My new Falken Wildpeak A/T4W tires

    I just got my new Falken Wildpeak A/T4W tires mounted on my truck. Tire size LT275/70R18. They look to be a pretty awesome tire. Slightly more tire noise while driving than my factory tires but really nothing to worry about. I did get 30,000 miles out of my factory tires but it was time to...

    Help removing headlight switch bezel. Need to replace switch.

    Anyone have any help in removing the bezel (plastic tan part) around the headlight switch? Never done one and don't want to break it. My knee hit the headlight switch climbing into the truck and pushed the button through the dash. Crazy how it did that! Don't know if I can just fix the button or...

    First oil change for this 2500... went sweet! With a question too.

    I've read threads on here saying how terrible the first oil change can be. I thought about taking it to the dealer or having a local place do the first one for me. But this morning I crawled under with my oil filter wrench and tried turning the oil filter to see how tight is it. Well, it turned...

    Oil filter size and question for a 6.4 Hemi

    I just picked up a Wix 57060XP for my first synthetic oil change soon on my 6.4 Hemi. I was kind of shocked at the small size of the filter compared to my filter that I used on my 5.7 Hemi. Because it's designed for synthetic oil does it make for a smaller filter? I searched on here and many say...

    Does my truck have auto tilt mirrors in reverse?

    I've looked through all the settings and I see nothing about activating the auto tilt feature in reverse. Am I just missing where to look? There is nothing in the owner's manual about it. Maybe not a feature on the 2500's or Big Horn package? Thanks. Red

    Tinted Acoustic Windshield Glass... What exactly is this.

    I understand the acoustic part of it but the tinted part is my question. Does the front windshield come with a UVA and UVB coating to block those rays? I hope so because I was going to get that done on my own. Reading through my equipment listing (using the VIN search) is says my truck has this...

    Ram's MVP Maximum Care plan

    I'm looking to see what the Ram's MVP Maximum Care plan costs? Is there any wiggle room in the price or is it what it is? When did you start the coverage?

    Does anyone have the LED bed lighting package on their truck? Do you like it? Does it work good? It sounds good and it's only a $165 option. Looking to see what others think about it. Thanks. Red

I don't want to spend...

    Cruise control still standard equipment?

    Is cruise control (speed control?) still standard equipment in the 2500? I've been searching but I can't find it listed. There is the Adaptive Cruise Control w/Stop but that is in a safety group package and I don't want to have to purchase that. I will be ordering a 2020 2500 in the near future...
