    Towing with new 6.4L

    Good advice, I tried PB Blaster but it stung like all hell. :D:D:D

    Towing with new 6.4L

    I haven't been using my bed step much because it hurts my knee more to extend and contract it, it is really stiff even though I've tried pressure washing and then white grease on the hinge points. I love it in theory just wished it moved easier.

    Happy looking pups! Why the step ladder?

    Call Me Crazy

    Gas or diesel? There's been many times I wish I had a mega cab. Then when plowing or parking I remember that part of the reason I chose my Ram is it was quite a bit shorter than GM or Ford 2500's.

    SHORT TRIPPING WITH NEW 2025 6.7 EMISSIONS SYSTEM

    I get it that, if he is correct, sellers will be able to market the products without risk of prosecution. But how does that help someone in a state that needs to pass emissions for inspection? Here in NH they have gotten rid of inspections so it wouldn't be an issue (for now anyway) but in...

    Cheapest option to soften the ride?

    Look for a gel or memory foam pad to put under your butt. I know this isn't a truck ride softening mod, but you might be surprised how much relief a soft cushioning seat pad would provide.

    2025 Ram 5500 Parked! Update

    Oh my ..... What part in the entire world today can't be shipped in within 3 days max? This is maddening and it's not me that's waiting for the truck.

    2025 Ram 5500 Parked! Update

    I think the following ... if someone above the dealer with a bit of clout decided to fix this, there HAS to be a sensor available somewhere that could be overnite shipped in, installed the next day, and a call to Mr. HDFarmer saying "sorry for your trouble, your truck is fixed and ready to be...

    2025 Ram 5500 Parked! Update

    It certainly is a customer service failure. They need to put a human from "above" the dealership on your case and get it solved.

    Steering wheel controls stop working

    Same fix as me, about 13 months trouble free since clock spring was replaced for the 2nd time. Seems like there isn't a single definitive cause of the problem, a few of us have had it fixed with a clock spring, others fuses or wiring, a few people have had all new steering wheels. Crazy...

    TuXedo X15

    I like the Truxedo products. Not meaning anyone should spend more than they feel like spending, I get it that from a price/quality standpoint you may do fine with a cheaper product. From talking to a few friends over the years I get the impression that here in the NH climate a cheaper product...

    Did i get scammed

    I think you'd be surprised not only by how much good quality stuff there is, from reviewed and verified sellers, but also how much actual OEM and direct from manufacturer stuff you can source. I definitely try to support local stores, hardware and even Best Buy because I realize how much Amazon...

    DRW to SRW Swap: Options for the Rear End

    Agree, I was surprised that wasn't a bigger number. When I think about the fiddling and possible custom parts you'd be looking at to modify your axle, I can't see any option besides a junkyard axle being a better option than this new one from a time and money standpoint. And like Johnmyster...

    Increasing idle.

    And just for another data point ... after a half hour drive, now 21 degrees F, I had 33 psi idle pressure.

    Increasing idle.

    This morning it was 1 degree F when I left my house, so definitely remote started. I don't run it for 20 minutes or anything like that, more like 5 minutes, enough to have it beginning to warm up and the idle settled down before I get in and shift. This picture was after a half hour drive...
