2022 Ram Classic (Warlock)

[MikeZulu]

I can’t help with your question as I went from 2017 2500 Laramie Cummins to a 21 1500 Laramie. But Just for grins, what’s the cost of gasoline in Kuwait.

And the cost of a ram in Kuwait lol

This spec Warlock would be just about 42.8K USD new from the dealership.

Gas cost is not an issue in Kuwait yet.

(prices per liter $USD, and are regulated, subsidized, and price-ceiled by the government)

91 Octane (recommended by dealership) - $0.28
95 Octane - $0.35
98 Octane - $0.59
Deisel ('dirty' diesel not really suitable for modern cars) - $0.38
Kerosene - $0.38

Sweet truck! I like the white.

Can anyone recommend any specific rubber mats? The dealership here needs about 2 months to order one in and they're overpriced as well. Found loads of options on Amazon, wondering if anyone can recommend a specific brand.

Traded in my 2011 Wrangler Sport Unlimited. Thank you Duney, you have served me well.

Should be getting the Warlock on Saturday!

ABSOLUTELY SEXY! Congrats man!

i have ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS recommended Weathertech or Husky Weather Beaters.
honesly nothing come close to comparison. i bought a lower cost same idea one once. they worked well for a season, i put them away and the next season they were all warped and wouldnt mold back to the floor right. Husky are cheaper but Weathertech is top of the line. both amazing options.

if you have Facebook marketplace or whatever people there use to buy and sell stuff (craigslist etc.) check there. That is where i got mine. $150 Canadian for both front and back brand new. Someone got them free with his truck but doesn't like them so I lucked out.
You can also check out this and other forums classifieds or for sale posts.

We do have something similar, but it's a tiny population (just under 4 million). Finds like that are rare, and most truckers here love the Chevrolet Silverado for some odd reason (I'd say a good 75% of US trucks here are Silverados).

Decided to go with the Husky Weatherbeater mats! Thank you for the recommendation!

Also getting body protection and tinting from the dealership. The bed isn't sprayed so going to have them take care of that as well, and thinking about getting Mopar mudflaps and the bed step. Might opt for another manufacturer, didn't do any research about those yet. Need to make a decision in about 12 hours if I want it included with delivery.

Kijiji would definitely be a good choice as well for things that aren't that heavy as I have a forwarding address in Canada (US as well)

I ordered genuine mud flaps for my Express off Amazon and genuine rubber mats off US Ebay, all about a week before Xmas. They arrived in Australia on my doorstep on Xmas Eve and 27th December respectively. Including a pretty decent freight charge (on the mats) and 10% GST on import they were still less than half what the Australian dealer charges.
All you have to do is search the genuine part numbers on Ebay and Amazon and you will find them.

Thanks for the tips. And grats on your new purchases! Good Xmas/New Years gift!

Ended up getting the mud flaps, tow kit, bed spray, and bed step from Mopar. Will be installed with delivery on Thursday afternoon!

Now I have no idea how I'm going to be able to sleep...

I don't miss much about living in Qatar, but gas prices are one of the few things...Are you allowed to pump your own gas in Kuwait?

 

[Jwithing]

Wow, your 98 octane is way cheaper than I've seen 93 octane in the states for a loooong time.

Currently paying about $3.50 per gallon in the Midwest for 93 octane.

There is always free pumping service, but ofcourse you are allowed to. I personally never allow anyone to pump my cars.

The cost of 98 increased twice since covid started. As for the rest, they've been the same for around 5 years now give or take. It's not going to last long.

Just curious. Some countries, and at least one state here, don't allow you to pump your own.

That's interesting! Never knew that. I would assume it has to do with a safety issue in that particular state?

I would suppose so, although it's probably more about job creation then actual safety concerns.. A few states used to have the requirement for an attendant, but I think everybody but NJ has gotten rid of the law these days.

Congrats! I just dropped my Warlock off at the dealership to fix in a bed step, mud flaps, and spray in bed liner. Question: how long did they tell you that the liner has to cure before you can start using it? Most places I saw online say that it's fine after 24 hours. The dealership told me I shouldn't use it or clean it for a full week.

Was planning on going on a camping trip this weekend :/

 

[Dave Haddon]

Mine was a factory install. Have heard 24 hrs and you are fine.
