    Ride quality

    I know you meant Titan, not Tundra. But I agree that some good deals can be found with Titans. I owned an older Pathfinder for a couple years. It was a good vehicle. The 4.0 v6 had good power. But there were timing chain issues with those engines, and replacing them was pretty involved. I...

    Ride quality

    What's your reason for considering the 2500? 5th gen 1500's ride quite a bit better than the 2019 2500 I test drove a few years back. It rode fine but it wasn't great. It was a big reason I went with a 1500 back then, and have stuck with them. I don't tow often, and when I do it's a small...

    2019 ram 1500 classic

    2019 thru 2024 1500 Classics are 4th gens (DT). You should post any threads about classics in the 4th gen forum. There is no such thing as a 5th gen classic at this point in time.

    Cold air intake

    The factory intake is a CAI and it flows plenty well for a stock Hemi. You'll just be wasting your money if you buy an aftermarket one. Unless of course your reason is for looks or to free up space in the engine bay by going with an OTR style intake.

    Dash Skin

    Sorry, I wasn't sure what product you were asking about until I searched on the title of the thread (Dash Skin). I used something very similar in an old square body chevy that I bought from JC Whitney, back in the 90's. I glued that one in though. But it worked well. You couldn't tell unless...

    Stellentis firing most of their employee's

    It doesn't surprise me. Why would Stellantis pay inflated US salaries when they can hire engineers from other countries for much less. They have no loyalty to the US. After all, they are European owned.

    Sanity Check - Wheel price

    He said they are off a '23 Classic, which is a 4th gen (DS). Which would have 5 lugs.

    0-40 PUP Oil

    Well that makes a lot more sense LOL... thanks for pointing that out Rick!

    0-40 PUP Oil

    How is that a good deal. That calculates out to well over 12 bucks a quart USD.

    Headlight thoughts

    Technically illegal, yes. It's enforced less than tint laws though. In fact I can't remember the last time I heard of anyone getting in trouble for that. I don't support doing that but no one will have to worry about breaking those laws unless they're extreeeemely unlucky.

    0-40 PUP Oil

    Yeah that deal seems to be too good to be true. I would be skeptical as well.

    Headlight thoughts

    There are any number of solutions, some of which are better than others. I've found that the halogen housings on 4th gens are some of the worst headlights I've ever used. Different halogen bulbs won't make much of a difference. Possibly upgrading to LED will make them brighter, but at the...

    My pretty bad 2018 RAM 1500 Hemi experience, help/advice needed on what to do next

    Your question about a buy out has been answered. Ram isn't going to buy you out at this point. The only one who may do that is your dealership, likely in the form of a trade as @Docwagon1776 said. You're in a tough position. If you feel you've been wronged you might want to seek legal...

    Special Laramie GT seats

    My guess is that's custom. Laramie seats have leather inserts. Is that cloth? Kind of reminds me of the velour seats of the 80's and 90's. Not a fan of that look myself but the color pop is nice. Any Laramie GT's I looked at had black leather inserts.

    need a little help finding this part please and tyvm

    You should try driving over there. I spend almost two weeks in Scotland back in 2019. That drive from the car rental place to where we were staying was horrific. Didn't take long to get used to it but I never really felt comfortable with driving there. Sitting on the wrong side of the car...

    My pretty bad 2018 RAM 1500 Hemi experience, help/advice needed on what to do next

    I can understand your being unhappy with this situation. No one wants to go through this sort of thing. I'm wondering what you want them to do for you though. Manufacturer's are still seeing parts shortages. Dealerships in a lot of areas are having trouble retaining qualified technicians...

    Doesn't matter which side you need since this kit includes both sides. But if you click the link and look just above the pic you'll see a clickable link that will define which side is which, as far as the website goes.

    The Last of our Laramies (4x4 Hemis '24) for $15k-$17k off MSRP

    It's a healthy discount. It's just sad that even with the discount, the highest priced is still eight grand higher than what I paid for a Laramie in 2020 that had quite a few more options. I guess I just need to get used to the way things are now. Thanks for letting us know Anthony!

    Follow up to, Dealer said no to tranny fluid change.

    It's been a while since I've owned a vehicle with an auto trans that had a dipstick. But I seem to remember that the gradients on the dipstick were marked in pints, not quarts like an engine oil dipstick. So the low level mark meant you were 1 pint low. Or maybe I'm thinking of the power...

    Apparently they preferred the old truck. :cheers:

    Birds Keep Sh!tting on My Side Mirrors

    Sorry, but that's funny. Have you done something to make them angry? I've read that birds can be quite vindictive. Perhaps a car cover?
