What did you do to your Ram today???

[Insanity]

If it happens again I will report on how the weather tech car seat tray thingy works. I did scrub it 3 times before I moved onto the rest of the truck. I spent about 30 minutes just on that seat cushion that was affected.

Ordered a bunch of parts for the @SKT Customs lower grille which should be here Wednesday. The switch pro got delivered today, now I just need the switch pro mount & some heat shrink and other supplies for installation

My kid puked in my moms truck a couple weeks back. That smell is so stubborn. I had to hit it with the Bissell a couple times before it finally went away!

Buy or rent an ozone generator. It may take a few times but it will destroy the odor.

I fully intend to get a dedicated set of winters in the fall.

I've learned.

Smart man!

 

[Dogpatch]

All depends on where you live. The winters in the Midwest aren't bad enough to need dedicated snow tires on a 4wd/AWD platform. A good set of A/T or all-seasons with a snow rating will get you anywhere you need to go. Now if you live in the upper Midwest, like North Dakota or Michigan, or Canada/Alaska, I can see using dedicated snow/ice tires in winter.

Yep.
Where I live in BC, it’s hills and mountains. There’s no going downhill without a dedicated winter tire unless you don’t mind sliding uncontrollably on a decent or not making it up a hill in the winter.

Good idea, but be VERY careful using an ozone generator. We used them extensively in Restoration, however, make sure everything is dry firstly as it can create a nitric acid and don’t use it for extended periods as ozone can deteriorate things like:

• carpets, especially synthetic carpets;
• carpet padding;
• foam seat cushions;
• plastics;
• latex or rubber pads and padding;
• electrical wire coatings;

You would be probably alright with an overnight application, but keep in mind it’s a small enclosure so the application would be concentrated.
When done, turn off the ozone machine and open all doors to well ventilate the truck for a while. Do not get into the truck till well-ventilated.

Yes, certain states in the US have made them legal.

Got this email from my @RamCares case manager (personal information redacted).

There is no need to reply to this email if you are no longer having any concerns with your vehicle and your issues are resolved at this time.

We just wanted to thank you for allowing RAM Customer Care the opportunity to address your concern. If you require any further assistance and are able to get the vehicle back into the dealership and get it diagnosed, then certainly give us a call back so we may reopen your case and look into the concern further.

We also wanted to let you know that we attempt to conduct a satisfaction survey upon closure of a case; therefore, you could potentially receive a survey by email. We’d ask that you take the time to complete the survey so we’ll know how we’re doing and what improvements we can make to enhance the customer experience.

Thank you for your time, participation, patience and for being a loyal RAM customer. It has been a pleasure working with you, and all the best in the future,




Seems like they are closing my case on my leaky rear window without any further explanation.

Oh, and I fedexed out a check for 30k to buy out my lease.

Honestly, if I could justify the price on a different new brand at this point, it would already be done.

well over the weekend:
Floor plate cut and painted, bolted in. No drilling needed.




I elevated the fridge to store another case of water and other supplies. I thought about sealing the bottom of the box off but decided agaisnt it since it allows for more flexibility in storing things, and also makes it easier for me to run wires to the fridge.
I also thought about building an enclosure around the Ecoflows, but after consideration I also decided against it due to heat issues. I may, however, build another "frame" around the Ecoflow and add a top panel to act as charging station.

but all that later additions will be future boogielander's problem. for now, i need to decide whether to keep the fridge where it is and sacrifice front seat legroom (not that it matters anyways) or move the fridge back slightly and sacrifice that space between the fridge and the rear seat cushion (i use that space to store my tripods, chairs, camplights etc)

I completed a rather lengthy online survey by JD power just now. I generally don't do random surveys, but I needed to rant about the poor service experience I had at my last dealership visit.

Installed Ridetech HQ adjustable rear shocks today. I’ll be driving it tomorrow to see how they are. Should be an improvement since front and rear are now matched valving.
