    Oil consumption 6.4

    What I can tell by you and your profile? You're insecure, bragging you rebuilt 5 engines by your mid 30's. (That made me lol, which means laugh out loud by the way old timer). And you ride Harley's. Which is also hilarious. You should be out riding for your brothers when one ran out of...

    Steering wheel clicking. 2019 2500

    My dealer did the same. It came back after a couple weeks and then it turned into months for a new clock spring. Sold the truck before it ever came in.

    Oil consumption 6.4

    Whiney? Go spend 40k on anything and tell me it's of no concern when it's TWO quarts low on oil. Not a half a quart. Anyway, I made the right choice. Stopped in at a buddies shop who works on late model stuff. Told him why I sold the ram. He said, well, you're not wrong. I've had a lot...

    Oh, I am one. . Especially when old timers want to tell me what I know, and how to spend my money.

    Oil consumption 6.4

    Guess I was. Sold it. Borrowing the old Ford I drove in highschool 20 years ago, while I wait for my new one to come in! Doesn't use a drop, and hasn't since day one! How bout that.

    So I just sold my new Ram

    Oh. Well I guess you can insert your excuse as to why the cam and lifters fail.

    So I just sold my new Ram

    Hmm you wonder if I change it myself.... Because I complained I couldn't find the oil at any local parts house....to change it myself....

    So I just sold my new Ram

    I build cars for a living, restoration/fabrication. Nuts and bolts turn the same on all of 'em.

    So I just sold my new Ram

    In 6 thousand miles i had my grill replaced, steering column replaced, waited 4 months on a broken clock spring, it was 2 quarts low on oil, the power window switch cluster was loose in the door panel, active noise dampeners replaced, trans was jolty when cold..... Did FCA and my dealership...

    So I just sold my new Ram

    That era dodge seems to have less problems from what I've heard, but, look at the "lifestyle" of the engine. Its towing in the mountains. That means it's revving high on a regular basis. According to that video I posted, that's the best way for these hemi's to get oil splashed on the cam...

    So I just sold my new Ram

    Also, again, 4 out of 5 friends of mine that own Chrysler products had lifter failure early in the engine life. This is not just hemi's.

    Bed step recall - dealer wants to delete

    No doubt at all, you are entitled to a partial refund.

    Bed step recall - dealer wants to delete

    I genuinely believe there's misinformation going on regarding the step. My dealership was under the impression that mine had to be removed entirely, until I called Chrysler and was told there's 2 different recall courses - one is to modify existing steps on sold trucks, and one is to remove...

    So I just sold my new Ram

    Really? I've heard more like $300-$400 every oil change - reason being there's 2 fuel filters that need to be changed every 10k miles which basically almost coincides with oil change intervals. I'd surely consider the cummins if the oil changes were that reasonable, and a long long warranty...

    So I just sold my new Ram

    I felt torn about getting rid of it honestly. I think this generation is the best looking 3/4 ton option. If I come back to Ram it will be either cummins (though I have a really hard time justifying it and maintenance is pricey) or another 6.4 if I happen to find a dealership that will give me...

    So I just sold my new Ram

    I've not read anything about a stop order. I did read they're slow on manufacturing right now due to covid though.

    So I just sold my new Ram

    Yes, the MDS was the cause without a doubt. How do I know? It would stop the second I put it in manual mode. No, the truck was not lifted, it was bone stock. Hell I only owned it 7 months. The 6.4 is 8 years old I believe. But also unchanged. Youtube uncle tony's garage where he goes...

    So I just sold my new Ram

    Hey cupcake, I restore cars/trucks for a living. I'm WELL versed in what those trucks were and weren't. They also weren't $40,000.

    So I just sold my new Ram

    The other thing was all the things you hear to solve the annoying things. MDS bothersome? Just scroll to 8th gear every time you put it in drive. Or buy a tuner. Sluggish? Buy a pedal commander. Lifters/cam aren't oiling well? Just buy this special oil and keep the rpm's above 2k and don't...

    So I just sold my new Ram

    I'm no stranger to it. But the funny thing is, this is my first new vehicle at 34 , and by FAR the most expensive I've bought. So my expectations rose as well. Sure, nothing's perfect, and my dealer was excellent in helping serve my issues. But the nickel and dime stuff was a pain, the MDS...

    I definitely would have kept the truck if I could get a lifetime power train but alas, chrysler discontinued that warranty offer.
