    Pacbrake Oil Filter relocation kit /Oil pressure drop

    I've had mine installed for awhile now and atleast 15K miles. I don't recall a pressure drop after install and currently see 30'ish psi @ idle.

    Mpg

    Check Fuelly and site that people track real world MPG of their vehicles. Last I checked the RAM was in the 15mpg range.. my trucks lifetime (65k miles), hand calculated mpg is mid/low 15's.. and I'm mostly hwy miles.

    CV axle problems

    Same issue alot of us have.. very poor design. I bought the parts off RockAuto a month or so ago.. still haven't gotten around to fixing it yet.

    How's this for CRAZY....

    Do they do a water test when installing the new windshield? Could he have got something under the dash wet? If not, I'm not sure how Safelight could have caused the issue. My bet is the battery was otw out and his install just pushed it over the line. Interested to see what the 'fix' is...

    Gasoline - Top Tier for 2024

    Ok, thanks, I'll narrow my choices then. I run this every 5k miles or so.. maybe that has helped.

    Gasoline - Top Tier for 2024

    Guess I'm just lucky. I've been filling up at the same cluster of stations for decades and never had a fuel related issue. The cluster has a Fly'n J, Pilot, Sunoco, BP, and now there's a Super Wawa and Conoco around the corner.. for the most part, they all price match each other, so it comes...

    Highest towing capacity for the 5.7

    Don't believe the 1500 will get much better fuel mileage.. if you checkout driving test/reviews and fuel tracking sites, like Fuelly, the 1500 Hemi is getting around 15-16 mpg, empty. The window stickers lie. FWIW: my lifetime (62k miles) of mostly highway and back country road driving is...

    How many of you have a spare key on your vehicle?

    I have a spare to everything. It either came with it or I purchased a spare. Unless we're going on a trip, I leave them in the safe at home.

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

    Exactly why I haven't 'jumped' yet.

    2023 Limited Longhorn Interior Wood Trim

    Since my 19 is outside 100% of the time, I religiously use a sunshade and had the windows tinted 20% (not the windshield). I can't say I've done anything special with the wood trim.. ever couple of months I just treat it like the rest of the dash and wipe it down with whatever dash care product...

    Portable Tire Inflator

    I've got a cheap Chinesium plug-in one my mother-in-law gave me many, many years ago that I keep in the truck all the time. If I'm going on a longer trip I grab the 20v Dewalt portable pump. It'll air up 4 truck tires from 34psi - 50 psi and 6 (2 spares) trailer tires from the mid 40 psi range...

    Towing capacity

    It was sarcastic.. hence the eye roll emoji at the end. I'm well aware of the limitations of the half-ton trucks across all brands and how they come up with their 'ratings'. :cheers:

    Towing capacity

    Maybe they realized their trucks can't reach those mythical numbers with the trucks they actually build? :rolleyes:

    Hurricane direct injection

    Did they use dual injection like the Ford Ecoboosts twins or just DI? If not, it'll be just like your VW or worse.

    Let it run or turn it off?

    For a diesel I don't see it being an issue.

    Leer Canopy

    I'm not usually one for 'caps', but that looks pretty darn good!

    Tell me what you don't like about the Ram....

    I had to disable mine as well. Liked the feature, but they never went back to the original position after. They'd be slightly off..

    New truck - when do I start getting the mileage on the window sticker

    Never. I'm mostly highway, @ 57k miles, and my trucks hand calculated lifetime mpg is in the mid 15's. Even if you toss out the few thousand miles of towing it still does not break into the mid 16's. Have I had better tanks, yes.. but they are very few and far between. One trip to work I'll get...

    What would you add to make your Ram ideal for you?

    2019 Longhorn Etrq Hemi 3.92s ORP I'd add the following: - a infotainment system that actually works like it's supposed to - full screen Android Auto - console shifter - about 500lbs more legal payload, without losing the decent ride - tow mirrors that don't lose any of the function my current...
