    33” tire reprogram?

    Even worn vs new makes a big difference. Closest you'll get is using the tire manufacturers rotations per mile

    33” tire reprogram?

    In a bfg all terrain the difference between the two 265/70-17 and a 33 12.50 -17 is roughly ,8 inch height and revs per mile is 657 vs 640 a roughly 2.5% difference. So at 100 mph you'd actually be just shy of 103 on the 33s. Not enough to be concerned, but as said there are ways to change if...

    33” tire reprogram?

    What size did your truck come with? The 275 60 20 is a 33 and the 275 55 20 is a 32. It looks like your truck is a classic so if it came with the 20" wheels it came with 33s. A lot of 33x12.50 tires are closer to 32.5 though so either way you're probably not far off as is.

    Truck got broken into!

    When I was younger and poorer I lived in a bad neighborhood. Car was broken into monthly if not bi-weekly. I just left the doors unlocked to prevent yet another insurance claim. Too bad they still broke the window or went in through the sunroof most of the time, but that was easier to fix then...

    Key FOB - Proximity?

    I find mine opens half of the time with the key in my pocket to auto unlock the door for me unless my hands are full in the rain. Then I have to dig through my pockets and use the unlock button on the fob what feels like every time.

    Diamondback bed cover or Roll N Lock?

    Unless you plan to load stuff on top of the cover I'd go rollnlock. Just so easy to acess the whole bed. You do lose a bit of space up front due to the box that contains it rolled, but still a decent amount of space below it at the front of the bed and a bit of taper on the back of it to get...

    Any interest for paddle shifters? ( 8 speed )

    I actually find the up/down on the column easier than dislocating my thumb to reach the ones on the front of the steering wheel.

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

    To me the most desireable part of the factory trailer brake is you don't bang your knee against it

    DEF additive

    We run a lot of def through the fleet. Most of the issues we've had are with the pumps and heaters on the system. As long as it isn't expired and you keep the nozzle clean and dust off anything that might fall in before you open the cap then clogs shouldn't happen from anything but freezing. We...

    Hard to find because most people know it'll do more harm than good. If it does any good at all.

    What percentage of 5.7 hemis get the costly 'tick'

    No, I don't

    What percentage of 5.7 hemis get the costly 'tick'

    I haven't changed a thing drivetrain wise from stock so yes.

    What percentage of 5.7 hemis get the costly 'tick'

    I have to think exhaust manifold tick gets a quarter of the hemis given enough miles. I'm 2 for 2. Sucks they just replace the bolts and gasket and crank it back down under warranty nowadays unless it cracks.

    Word of warning that the dash speakers at 4ohms may be a bit too much. Most guys opt to add a resistor to the dash speakers to cut a few db and keep them more in line with the door speaker volume.

    Slowest-selling vehicle in America is the Dodge Ram 2500 truck

    When I bought my last 2 rams they were a lot cheaper than equivalent fords and gms. I Think last time it was 14k range difference on the half tons and 11k the time before, which is honestly the only reason I stayed ram after major reliability issues on my first ram a 3rd gen diesel. I just...

    Be careful!

    Or just get a paint marker and write coolant on the coolant cap in red or some other high vis colour

    1 gal. Of gasoline in 28 gal diesel performance increase.

    Wonder if this would work for diesel drag racing. Might be worth extra rebuilds for extra win lights if in a single power adder class. if you have the money. Everyday use I say this sounds like a terrible idea.

    Adding Bed Weight for Winter Driving

    I don't add weight when at home in the snow and never a problem, but the tonneau adds a bit of weight so I suppose I did add a little. Rollnlock is pretty heavy. Long trips for work all my tools add to easy 600lbs,but I don't find it helps traction.

    Adding Bed Weight for Winter Driving

    It's for weight down low so you don't roll it on slopes.especially if it has a loader bucket and or backhoe attachment that puts weight up high making it easy to roll. Also good in the rear tires for ballast on loaders to make it more stable with heavier loads up front. Usually not needed if...
