    My bad. I just looked at the avatar which is a capital T in a green circle. yours is the same as the one for member TimW73. That is what happens when you use your phone instead of a computer with a bigger screen.

    I traded my 2500 for a 2021 Ram 1500 Bighorn. the first thing I ordered for the 1500 was another set set of Morimoto XB Hybrids (and some AMP steps). That should tell you how much I like those lights. By the way, what is your MOS? I am a retired 915E (made it to W4)...........the military...

    DIC MPG calibration

    I upgraded my 2020 Tradesman 6.7L from the 3' DIC to a cluster with the 7" DIC.. Prior to upgrqading my MPG readout was pretty much spot on (+/- 1 at the most), now it is of by a bout +4 MPGs. I thought all that infor came from the ECM but that most likeley not the case since I didn't make any...

    I bought a set Morimoto XB Hybrid headlights. I don't really care about the LED turn signals and definitely not worth the upcharge to me. The lights are great, very bright with a sharp cutoff line, just make sure they are adjusted correctly. Compared to the ones on my 4th Gen truck they were...

    More Semiconductor Shortages Forces Ram To Revise Some Packages For Heavy Duty Trucks!

    I get what you saying about the worker shortage. What I don't understand is why we have a shortage??? Wages are up, plenty jobs are out there and, from what I understand, most hand outs have ended. I wish I would have had those employment opportunities when I moved to the US in 1985.

    We can't have it both ways, made in the US and cheap labor doesn't go together. I still think it's better to make stuff here at home, support our workforce and don't depend on other countries (especially if we are not on the best terms).

    At least they passed a bi-partisan bill to develop and manufacture the chips in the US now. Sometimes there are miracles happening in Washington.

    LED Bulbs

    I have a 2020 2500 Tradesman. I replaced the front headlights with Morimotos and would like to have LEDs in the back. I do not like the look of the Alfrex taillights and OEM cost a small fortune. Did anybody just install quality LED bulbs into the base model taillight housing, or will I get...

    Improper use of gear limit

    Don't worry about any damage. Look at the bright side......I bet your DPF is squeaky clean after that drive.

    Mods so far

    I bought a 2020 2500 Tradesman 6.7L in February, pretty much had to take what I could find at the time. My truck came with Level 2, Uconnect 8.4, spray-in bedliner, cab lights, chrome package, tow package and anti-spin differential. I have since added the following: Amp power steps, Mopar bed...

    WTB: Oem aluminum wheels for 2020 Ram 2500

    Looking to buy 4 aluminum wheels for my 2020 Ram 2500. Would prefer the style shown in the attached photo but will consider other OEM styles as long as they are not black wheels.. Either 18" or 20", with lug nuts included. No wheels with curb rash or other damage. I live in central Missouri...

    FS - 2019+ RAM HD 2500 - 5500 5-Button Smart Key

    interested, but what do you mean by the BCM has to be modified to make this work?

    I looked in the classified section for some used OEM LEDs but didn’t find anything. Almost ordered a set of new ones when I seen the Morimoto XB Hybrid LEDS. They are brighter than the OEM LEDs and cheaper and come with a 5-year warranty. I had Morimoto XBs on 2016 Ram and they were great.

    Just love it when somebody recognizes what's in my signature. I was actually lucky enough to wear the Rising Eagle before they made all of us branch officers. Now I enjoy the retired lifestyle.
