    What’s everyone doing to disable their MDS?

    I don't feel my MDS. I could definitely feel it in my 2016 Rebel but nothing from the PowerWagon. No change in power, throttle response or exhaust tone. I do see the ECO light coming on and off on the dash depending on engine load or throttle input

    Weak AC anyone?

    My 2022 came with a N95 cabin filter and it was very restrictive. Compared to the standard filter this thing was THICK! I've since replaced it with a reusable K&N cabin filter that i clean with every oil change just to keep the air flow flowing at its max. My 2016 Ram Rebel had great AC till i...

    Can I get service at a dealer to refresh the transmission?

    I purchased the factory Mopar filter and fluids from Amazon. Pan/filter $305 7 qts of fluid for $105. Also bought a cheap $7 bottle fluid pump. I did a quick search online for instructions and was able to knock it out in my driveway. I’m thinking in 30k miles, I’ll do a drain and fill only.

Does the trick for me and Ill do it about once or twice per oil change. I've also complained to the dealership a few of times about the...

    “Uconnect box requires service” bug hits me too.

    My 22 level 1 power wagon started getting the same message 2 months ago. I haven't brought it in yet but this is the second time it has happened. First time was actually a year ago and the dealership replaced the telematics module under warranty.

    Adding 360 cameras or just a front view

    I have the 360 cam and i find it most useful when backing into parking spaces. i can see the parking lines from the birds eye view and its pretty accurate for centering the truck. Having it makes me feel the truck is smaller then it really is. Front cam definitely more useful.

    Fox 2.5 Shocks for the Power Wagon.

    They're nothing fancy. i got everything from my local metal supply yard. The bottom plates are pre cut 6" round 1/4" thick steel plates. The walls are these decorative 6" round rings. i believe they are used for building gates. Edit: i welded the rings to the plate. then drilled and counter...
