    Where do I order the Multi Function Tailgate on the Build and Price

    After looking into this you are correct on the tail gate, I would think this option would be more sellable in the work truck models, but my Ram is not a work truck, I'm just and old 78 year old guy who would like to reach into the bed and not have to lift everything over the tailgate. I guess...

    Where do I order the Multi Function Tailgate on the Build and Price

    I was thinking of ordering a new 2024 Ram 1500 4x4 Lone Star Edition to replace my 2019 Ram with equal options. Main things I wanted was the Night Edition Package and the Multi Function Tailgate. I can not find on the Build and Price forum online where do you check off the tailgate option. I'm...

    Is the 2025 "Refresh" going to be enough to boost sales?

    I agree with you, sales are down on just about everything you buy today, the bad part of this is it's going to just get worse and if you expect prices to go down, its not going to. The manufactures can even offer some good incentives for new buyers, but I feel it's still not going to be enough...

    Electric cars risk becoming uninsurable

    Thanks for the post, I don't know that I will ever be sold on EV's just for so many reasons, probably the biggest reason is I'm 78 and too old to plug it in and wait for it to charge.

    Best rubber mat for slip in liner

    I use the Tractor Supply Stall Mat and I have used it over 20 years and never wore one out yet. Cost is around $40.00, I think it is almost 3/4" thick, yes it will need to be cut, I use a box knife. It is very heavy and will not blowout, or move around in the bed. It has a texture that will not...

    Looking to buy my first Ram in 2024

    My 2019 Ram 1500 4x4 5.7 Hemi has had none of these problems (28,000 miles), in fact it's the best vehicle I have ever owned and finding it hard to get a new one when the 2024's come out. If you read on just about any forum out there every product has problems and the ones who complain the...

    QUICK LOOK: 2024 Ram 1500 Limited Night Edition

    I like the Night Edition option and as much as I like white I would probably what it in a different color. For me white and chrome go together, but the black features do look better with colors like Red, Black, and Silvers.

    CAUGHT: 2025 Ram 1500 with Hurricane Twin-Turbo Power!

    I'd like to see more Grand Waggoneers with this engine on YouTube in both HP engines. I hate to give up my Ram with the 5.7, but I think I could be persuaded to change with good results on testing over the next six months or so. Since its probably going to be the future engine for the Ram 1500...

    UAW VP Says Stellantis Has Threaten To Move Ram 1500 Production To Mexico

    Move it to the Texas, or Tennessee where everything else is going. No need to go the Mexico where they are not helping with us on Drug Running, Inigrant control, and just about everything else that does not help our country.

    Would You Pay $107K for this TRX?

    When I can get a 2023 Lone Star edition for under $60,000 and that would be RAM 4x4 5.7 with option 2 equipment, Night Edition, why would I want to pay more.

    An Engineer's Ultimate Guide To 3.21 VS 3.92 Axle Ratio

    I spoke on this sometime ago and I was towing a 23 foot Oliver travel trailer with my RAM 1500 5.7 4x4 with a 3:21 rear axle and the stock 26 gal tank. If I replace my 2019 RAM with a new one in 2024 I will get the same combination on my new truck, why, because it works.

    If the 5.7 Hemi goes away in 2024, I'm out of the RAM

    I know it's not written in stone as of yet, but many YouTube videos are being produced on the new Straight 6 Hurrican engine and saying it could replace the 5.7 and 6.4 Hemi V8's. Probably true it can have more HP and Torque and work for many, but for me it's all about the V8 sound and for me...

    First Tow Impression: 5200+# Travel Trailer

    We tow our new Oliver TT, weight around 5400 lbs. loaded and a hitch weight around 500 lbs. When we first got it we pulled it with no WDH and the trailer pulled just fine, but did go with the Anderson WDH as the trailer weight ratings were just slightly over the Ram's weight limits. We get...
