    2017 Ram 1500 Fuel tank strap issue

    Exact same thing happen today on my '17 Ram 1500 - 32 gallon tank (reside in OH snow/salt). The truck is very well taken care of. I heard a strange grinding like noise (which was the tank strap hitting the driveshaft) and the front part of the tank dropped. Luckily my buddies shop can handle...

    Approaching 200k miles

    Just a suggestion, have the lower control arm bushings checked. I have a '17 1500, 4x4, Hemi, 285k. At about 225k I experienced a row boat feeling at highway speeds, feels like you can't control the truck. Bushings were shot (see pic), replaced the lower control arms and problem solved...

    Dealer said No for transmission fluid change.

    I got the same answer back in the day. Mine is a '17 1500 5.7 and I changed it at 125k with Amsoil. I currently have 278k on it with no issues - truck is running strong except for the Hemi tick from broken manifold bolts.

    Manifold bolts breaking.

    I have a '17 Crew 5.7 and also have the exhaust manifold bolt issue. Had Endurance and they denied the claim. I currently have 230k on the truck and just put up with it. With regular maintenance I never had any other issues.

    RamBox worth getting?

    Unless you need all of the bed space all the time I will never get one without it. Waterproof, locks with the fob, built in lighting, drain port for use as a cooler. My truck is my portable office and I keep all of my field equipment in them. For me it frees up the back of the cab for people, my...

    Did a test drive in a 2020 Rebel and was... disappointed

    Sluggish..... recently viewed an article that FCA has filed a patent for an in line 6 producing 525 HP. Should be interesting...... Take the cheap route and add a Pedal Commander to decrease the lag time.
