Is it the wrong oil, or is it "lifetime" fluid like in the BMWs? - The point here is that I don't think it's fair to blame owners on poor maintenance for some of these things; the average consumer who buys a car and gets told by the manufacturer that they never have to change the transmission...

I don't think that the 68RFE is nearly as bad as it's been made out to be. Yes, there are some potential problems with it. But... if you aren't adding power or trying to increase pressure line commands, it should still last a while. I've been towing with mine, as intended, and it's fine. The...

Okay, thanks!

Thanks. I'm assuming that you cut out the little plastic rectangle on top of the bed frame and these go through that part and clamp on to the underside, is that right?

I popped into the forum this morning and I found this thread looking for the same thing - I want to mount a cross bed tool box on my 2500 for just a little bit of extra storage. Is there anything out there that (ideally) doesn't require cutting or drilling? I was looking at the buyer's gull...

This is interesting - I just bought a brand new 2024 (yes, it sat at the dealer a long time) Limited Longhorn and it has this, although it isn't on the build sheet, option list, or window sticker. But it's there; I discovered it when I was exploring the truck.

Nice! I just got mine this week, also pearl white, and also because my other vehicle wasn't really cutting it for what I was towing.

New member, new Ram truck, as in the title. Like others have posted, my "need" for a new truck was centered around towing. For 3 years I've been towing the family camper (30 ft) behind a 2013 Lincoln Navigator L. While technically capable, the Ford 5.4, 6R80 combo struggled on grades and the...
