    GOOD OR BAD? FLORIDA Service department at DODGE dealership vs general mechanic

    I have not been having a good experience at any of the Dodge SERVICE DEPT at any of dealerships in Central Florida. Curious if there’s anyone who could recommend the best service department near Central Florida? Or is it in Tampa or Lakeland? Really want to leave my truck in the right hands...

    How can I get more power, as in horsepower or torque, out of a 4.7 magnum

    I have a 4.7 magnum in a 04 single cab short box that is a powerhouse for the size of the truck but I feel I can get more horse or torque out of it. Any suggestions, I do not want to "upgrade" to a hemi.

    Black oil

    I change my oil every 2500 miles, full synthetic high mileage oil filter and air filter every 10,000. My truck has about 140,000 miles on it. Every time I change my oil, it is black. I have no leaks and I look it over every 2500 miles. Any idea what would be causing this. Not effecting...

    Exhaust Manifolds

    Hey Y’all, sounds like I got a leak in my passenger exhaust manifold. I was looking at maybe upgrading both instead of just replacing. Can anyone suggest a good performance enhancing replacement? I was looking at maybe doing all Mopar but wasn’t sure if that was the best way to go about it. Thanks!

    Transmission Issues

    I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right area. I am having problems with my 2014 Ram with a 6.4 motor. I've had three transmissions put in it throughout the past two years by two separate companies, but I keep having the same issues. It keeps burning up gears and often goes into limp mode. I'm...

    Greetings, I recently acquired a 2012 Ram 1500 SLT with the beloved 5.7L Hemi. It's a beautiful truck with the crew cab and only had 37,000 miles on it when I got it. Whoever had owned it originally had made some upgrades already. They did an upgraded exhaust system (not sure which one, too...

    What to upgrade first?

    I have a 2015 Ram 1500 4x4 that I am about to lift and put 35s on. Im not looking to take it to the drag strip. But, Im curious what upgrades will give it some added power. Name what you think are the top two or three. Cold air intake? Better muffler? Chip reprogrammer? Please include brands.

    EXHAUST IN TUNNEL!!! Mopar Performance Cat-Back

    Not sure if I'm posting this in the right spot; if not Mods please relocate. No one seems to really talk about or even record the Mopar Performance Cat-Back Exhaust.

    HELP: What does this "Performance Hemi" sticker in my engine bay mean?

    Alrighty folks, I bought this truck used 5 months ago. The previous owner was a RAM mechanic who worked at the dealership I bought it from. As far as I can tell he hasn't done anything to it besides the level kit and 35's (Nitto Ridge Grapplers) - which I was stoked about because he saved me...
