What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

[KahneFan]

How was the install 1-10 difficulty?

I'm about a 4 installer, and it was about a 6 for me, so maybe a 2 or 3 with some skill

Can this front cam be installed with an RA2 5.0 Radio?

That's what I have. But it really doesn't matter which radio you have since (the way I installed it), it's independent of any truck systems (other than power).

I want this so bad !

Does it automatically activate @ a slow speed or do you have to turn it on ?

(the way I set it up) No, it operates on a simple toggle switch and I can toggle it on/off anytime I want to use it.

Sorry for all the Qs , you got me excited !

(see above for answers)

Someone suggested I use the lockpick set to integrate it into my factory system, but using this method I was completed for about $60, and if you figure the lockpick would still need the $21 camera, this system cost me $39 compared to??? for a lockpick system. Plus, as I stated, it's independent of my truck's system, so I can use it whenever I want - or not use it when I want. For me personally, I don't see the need for "automatic" slow speed on. If I'm pulling up to a stoplight, I probably know what's in front of me. However, if I'm cruising through some brush and want to see, I can flip the camera on (at any speed).

Well this week is the train horn install. But it calls for tapping into the stock horn, positive wire. Anyone know which wire that is leading from the horn itself? Ive got a 50/50 shot but if someone knows, that'd be great.
Thanks

I agree 100% on from the price point. For anyone that does consider the lockpick, the automatic slow speed on is ANNOYING. I'ts on when ever you at a redlight, drive through, driving through a neighborhood, stop signs, ect. You can shut it off and the system comes with a remote to turn on the front camera when you need it.

Received my OEM style replacement grille ($70 on Amazon). Going to test fit it before I color match it. The less chrome the better...

Got a recall letter for the steering harness, air bag thing. Anyone else have this done?

Took my 2015 1500 Bighorn CC to on a family trip to Colorado from Minnesota and back. 3350 miles, ~2200 or so on interstate, ~800 in and around the front range, ~350 in mtns paved and forest roads. 18.5 mpg hand calculated, 18.8 mpg on EVIC.

8 speed w/ 3.21 and Hemi worked flawlessly. 90mph is 2,000 RPM--nice for cruising!

Train horn install was a success. Anyone with questions about an install I'll be willing to help.. I learned a good amount installing this myself. Took two days, but well worth it when driving through the streets of South Florida. Pics coming soon.

I did the steering wheel recall myself and just got my buddy at the dealer to write it off as complete.

Hmm, ok. Trying to decide if I even want to take it in.

Went on a little bit of a fun adventure today, had to drop off some empty sand bags at the paintball field but it had rained recently. Didn't use 4WD, just 2WD, but still fun going through the puddles!

 

[TheFactor]

Oh man that trail was screaming for some 4wd love

 

[Limeybastard]

continued the gayness parade with more ****** mods. Added some grey vinyl to the spokes of my sport rims.

The devil sure makes work for idle and empty wallets in ones garage late at nights.

Wasn't bad enough to need 4WD, plus it was fun with 2WD and throwing up huge sheets of water.

Took it to the dealership. Three recalls corrected, took 8 hours, and they broke my CB antenna washing it. Luckily it wasn't a good antenna and they replaced it. Tomorrow she's got a glass appointment.

But with 4WD you'd throw twice as much which = twice the fun

I've seen these once before. Doesn't look too bad on the wheel. What's your thoughts on them? Like 'em? Wish they were better? Worth the money?
