What did you do TO your RAM today?

Torklift mounts for when we find a truck camper

The trick is to make sure you move your hand out of the way ....Had them for years and NEVER broke nuting...and it saves the doors from scratches and finger grime

Then you go ahead and spend $35 on a piece of aluminum and double sided tape.

If you’re worried about scratching your paint, push the door closed with your window.

Whatever floats your boat! (Or breaks your fingers)

Its the kind of thing that you have to try to appreciate its simplicity...Im 62 and been using this problem free for many moons and trust me its WAY easier than reaching for the window( and no dirty window) or the door handle and your right it is my $35 bucks.

Well I’ll tell you what I did to my Ram today….I took the Transfarce’s that my 19 kicked off yesterday and shod the poor old 12 with them .

I’m confused…why don’t the door handles work for closing the door?

I don't get it either and I've never had worn paint or any other damage to the door from closing it

I'm a hard core "never touch my paint" guy. Only open and close using the door handle. That's literally why the door handle is there, too open and close the door. No other place should ever experience human touch or contact.

Kids can learn this as well, you only need to physically beat/inflict pain a couple times before lessons start to really stick. My kids know, never touch glass. Never food or drink aside from water in a car. Never touch a car. Feet never touch the seat in front of you. You take out what you bring in to a car.

I've had so many people tell me that these rules can't work with kids and babies, but yet the rules work fine with mine. You'll never see a food or drink stain in a car I own, nor will there be left behind items or debris.

You sound like fun to be around

I love my kiddo more than I love my truck. A few crumbs and fingerprints won’t hurt anything. I open and close the doors for her and her mom anyway.

OMG Ive found my twin! I'm as anal as you when it comes to the hands off treatment of my vehicles. I don't even want my wife using the door handles because she always opens the doors with something in her hand like keys, shopping bags etc etc...On her car its scatched in the door handle scoop and around the handle. When I had the PPF and the ceramic coating done I told the guy to do behind the door handles and make sure to PPF the door rocker panels because my wife always drags her feet across the rocker panels and scratches the #$%$ out of them. On my old Ram her rocker sills were trashed while mine was spotless

Swapped my reverse halogen bulbs for LEDs off Amazon. OEM's were not bright enough for my taste. Simple swap of the bulb, and a lot brighter. Will try to get a pic after dark sometime.

It gets better once the kids move out The shiny car disease is hard to shake once you have it.

I take care of my truck; but it’s a truck and I use it like a truck. If it gets dirty, gets some scratches, it adds character. I sure as hell am not going to worry about fingerprints on the door.
Here’s my dirty ass truck to trigger you bois.

I agree. But I do close the door by using the rubber window channel molding. I also have a 66 Mustang, and I am much more concerned about people touching it too much. Lol

You better have a ceramic coating under the dirt protecting the paint. Detailing police are silently lurking!!

I use my truck as it's intended. I keep it clean as I can, but I'm not trying to have it live in a bubble.
