    7.0 Cluster availability on a 2026 3500 Bighorn?

    if you can find the dealer order guide online .. it will show whether or not its avaiable stand-alone. I was able to order the 7.0 cluster in my 2023 as a stand-alone option for $75 ... not sure if Ram still allows that without adding a package.

    Thread on Power Sliding Rear Window Connector in Overhead Console

    That’s because you can have heated mirrors without a rear slider. To enable my heated mirrors I have to press the rear window defogger button. I don’t have a slider or rear defogger but have a rear defogger button.

    Thread on Power Sliding Rear Window Connector in Overhead Console

    Thread on Power Sliding Rear Window Connector in Overhead Console

    I added the Deluxe overhead console to my Tradesman that included rear window switch. If I recall all the wiring was in my harness for rear window even though mine has solid rear window. I too would only replace it with a slider if my solid rear window broke. RAM used to have rear slider as...

    Spotted '25 powerwagon. *edit* rebel

    Crazy .. I do see on the 2025 order Guide you do seem to have to order the PW LEVEL 1 Package to get a winch .. The Tradesman PW package is still $7995 and still incudes the winch .
