    Towing a Brinkley - offset required?

    @MarkCO1 ....I'm a new GooseBox owner. Although I did not specifically research the TCS / Companion combination everything I read pointed to a gooseneck solution. Can you clarify your statements (especially 'safer') and provide some information?

    Anyone know who makes Mopar Rollup Tonneau Covers?

    @johnmyster ....excellent recommendation! I like the mount and it seems to be reasonably priced. Thanks for taking time to post it.

    Running Board Mount - Factory

    I'm 69 and thankful for what I can still do. There are days where my wife and I thank the Lord that we got out of bed on our own without any assistance. Still doing my own oil changes on the truck, but I gave up washing our 35' fifth wheel a while ago. I run it through Blue Beacon a couple...

    Anyone know who makes Mopar Rollup Tonneau Covers?

    I have a 2024 RAM 3500 MegaCab with 6' 4" box. I'm looking for a rollup tonneau cover with velcro rails that takes up very little or no space in the bed. I currently have an Access Cover where the velcro rails extend into the truck box a couple inches on each side. Our 5th Wheel pin box...

    Towing a Brinkley - offset required?

    We only stay at facilities with hard surfaces such as concrete or asphalt. I hope to never put my 5th wheel suspension through the stress of a 90 degree turn on a hard surface. While turns like that could be necessary while boondocking (never done it), we've never had the need. When backing my...

    Oil level reads high on dipstick

    You've got one interesting brain....that's for sure.

    Oil level reads high on dipstick

    Its only right if you drained all the old oil out first.

    Oil level reads high on dipstick

    I got mine to register correctly on the dipstick with 12 quarts by jacking the rear of the truck up 2 inches. I just placed the jack under the rear hitch and lift. Was the weirdest thing, but somehow I was able to drain just a little more and that took care of the problem.

    My new ride..... '24 Mega Cab Dually.

    Sorry I missed this somehow earlier. But what ErikTheRed said above was pretty much how it went! In and out in a couple hours. ;) The days prior to us arriving in Atlanta were a little more hectic though. We negotiated back and forth for days getting all the details and pricing in place. I...

    New Truck.... Are Tire Warranties Handled Different Than Other Parts?

    The dealer called me back today and let me know that the tires would be in Wednesday and set up an appointment for me. Sounded like there was some kind of snag in ordering warranty tires. Although this took longer than I thought, I've gone to these guys for years servicing my trucks and have had...

    New Truck.... Are Tire Warranties Handled Different Than Other Parts?

    Thanks...just left another voice mail with the Service Manager pushing (respectfully) a little harder.

    New Truck.... Are Tire Warranties Handled Different Than Other Parts?

    Bought a new '24 Dually a month and a half ago while traveling through Atlanta. On the way back to Minnesota I noticed some tire vibrations and brought it to my local dealer. Truck had about 1500 miles at that point. They found 3 Nexen tires that they were unable to balance within specs and...

    If you have painted bumpers, did you have paint protection (PPF) done?

    I thought about that and checked into a couple sites that sell the film pre-cut. They rate installations from easy to very difficult. For some reason our ram bumpers are rated difficult. That along with a relatively high price for the pre-cut film steered me from trying DIY.

    Getting Rid of Exhaust Fumes in Attached Garage

    We have a 2 car garage with a standard 16' garage door. The only way my trucks have ever fit is because one of the bay's is 8 feet deeper than the other bay (where my wife's car goes). Since the truck has to be on the deeper (right) side, I can't switch sides with her. In my case, a wider...

    If you have painted bumpers, did you have paint protection (PPF) done?

    Thats exactly what I was thinking when I bought this truck. Then I find out its in the $500 range to have it covered (just the front bumper). I've owned quite a few trucks over the years and have always ordered them with chrome bumpers. I bought this one off the lot and as with most trucks now...
