    Woman problem???

    Battery is cheap to try and at that age you need one anyways. One thing I have noticed on my ‘22 is that sometimes a light press on the brake pedal is not sufficient to start it. Press harder on the brake it starts right up. Sometimes it feels like I am pressing unnaturally hard vs starting...

    After a journey to the dark side I have returned to the RAMily...

    I think you are right 5-7 crew v 6-4 quad. The 6-4 crew cab is longer overall than a 5-7 crew cab

    After a journey to the dark side I have returned to the RAMily...

    Mine is 6’4 crew as well, how much bigger is the turning radius than 5’7 bed? I had the shorter bed on my 2017 and I don’t recall it being particularly maneuverable either. This week I have a rental Corolla for work. I think it Corolla could turn around inside my Ram bed. It is also getting 41...

    RE turning radius, yeah my ram is not great there. If it were any worse I’d be doing 3 pt turns leaving my driveway…

    100,000 mile maintenance (what I really need)

    $3000 thermostat… inflation must be a lot more than published CPI! My truck is probably worth $3 million by now. Anyone interested hit me up!

    4x4 with no tow hooks?

    I think you meant amber to match her gold tennis bracelet she will get for letting you buy a truck these days? tennis bracelet is rounding error option on a full size truck these days.

    4x4 with no tow hooks?

    Mine has chrome tow hooks. Totally dumb. If I ever used them they would likely get scratched. Luckily I’m one of the ones who got off road package for driving on wet grass and 4x4 for the 2 days a year it snows here. My driveway is 14 degree incline according to gauges and it will climb it with...

    String wind blew door open and now it scrapes the front when opening or closing

    ^^^ look on the hinge for evidence of it moving too, maybe you can see a nice shiny scrape to give you a hint on where it used to be.

    Can You Pump Up Your Brake Pedal?

    That is air, it should not feel stronger in the second press. I have a 5.7 but I have borrowed a buddies 6.4 2500 before and driven a few of them. That doesn’t sound normal.

    What's different about the Gen 5 versus the 4. Any complaints with the Etorque or truck in general??

    You can’t turn off eTorque. It’s integral to the truck operation. Belt driven off the crank I think. And why would you want to lug around a big battery and heavy motor with it doing nothing? The button turns off start-stop of the truck at stop lights, not eTorque. Auto stop start uses eTorque...

    Winch power

    Also beware modern truck very sensitive to battery voltage. If you are winching long I’d let the truck run while operating the winch just in case. The computer will decide if the voltage is sufficient to start the truck, not you.

    What's different about the Gen 5 versus the 4. Any complaints with the Etorque or truck in general??

    Many you tube reviews and discussions here on v4 vs 5. eTorque, in my opinion, is not worth the complexity but millions of trucks operating reliably with it. Factory brake controller integrates aesthetically with the controls and indicates on the digital gauge cluster. Functionally it’s...

    Wondering

    While we’re at it, I am used to driving BMW’s. There’s this stick looking thing on the left side of the steering wheel, it controls the wipers but it also goes up and down and I can’t seem to figure out what that is. the manual says turn signal, but the GPS signals me which way to turn on the...
