Ram 2500 bighorn 2024 a/c weak

I just bought this amazing truck and I have fallen in love with it. Let out some air from the tires and it drives much better than any other 1/3 ton imho. The only issue I have is that the a/c is a little weak. Any advice on how to handle this issue? The truck is new 3k miles.

New Screen

Currently have a 2020 Warlock with the small display and I am looking to upgrade it. Is there a way to keep the volume and station dials but get the larger display?

Anybody using the mopar.com site?

Iā€™m trying to look up the installed equipment on my truck because I canā€™t remember if my truck has a block heater installed and itā€™s too cold and dark to go out and look. But the VIN lookup function on the mopar.com website isnā€™t working. Anybody else having trouble?

Fuel neck breathing hose

I have a 2018 1500 slt 5.7 litre. Every time I fuel up the pump clicks off after 4-5 dollars. I know itā€™s the neck breathing hose. My question is what should be a viable replacement? Should I seek out oem parts or should I use rubber fuel hose? Metal fuel line? Truck is out of warranty so I donā€™t have that issue. Thank you

Paint help

Hi all. My dad drives a Ram Rebel 2500 turbo diesel with the Granite Crystal Metallic black paint. Does anyone know where I can get a small spray can of the stuff? I bought a Ram rebel hotwheels truck and Iā€™d like to paint it to match his truck as a gift. I could use touch up paint pens but I donā€™t think itā€™s going to look nearly as good as an even layer from a spray can.

thanks for ur help :)

2023 Ram 1500 Headlight Upgrade Help (2nd post attempt)

Hey Everyone, I decided to buy my truck after leasing because the V8 option is no longer there. I need help deciding on a full headlight upgrade for my 2023 Ram 1500. I've been researching VLAND and Morimoto for quite some time. I seen a few other brands as well. I know with electronic upgrades there is a chance it will cause errors or may not work. I have read that VLAND is less expensive but with Morimoto, you'll get a much better upgrade thats expensive. Other brands look interesting. Yes, i am try thinking of going the most cost effective route, but want to hear other people's experiences with upgrading. I'm looking for what everyone have seen works best and probably won't void my warranty when it comes to upgrading headlights. I'm deciding to upgrade because I live in a rural area and deer make an unwelcoming appearance, which I have encountered on more than one occasion. Thanks for any advice or help.

Upgrade GPS?

Hey guys! Sorry if this has been asked already. I've got a 2021 1500 Big Horn. It's my first Ram, I've always been a GMC Sierra owner. And those upgrades were easy to find with obvious reviews. But I'm having the hardest time finding a GPS upgrade that has decent reviews! I've got the very basic touch screen. No GPS, just a factory reverse camera and radio options. I want to add GPS (Android Auto). But most of them either require a wired connection to your phone, or they don't work with the factory reverse camera so you have to buy their cheap little cube camera and mount it to your bumper. Anway, does anyone have experience in doing this upgrade? What are your thoughts? I don't care if it's the 8 inch or 12 inch screen, that doesn't matter. I just want a wireless connection that will enable me to follow my map and will work with the factory reverse camera. Why is this so difficult?! Haha

Front Driveshaft left the chat

Driving over a snowy, frozen lake to get to my fishing hut when the front driveshaft decided to snap. Luckily, I still had 2WD, and another fellow Ram owner helped us get out of the snow since 2WD wasnā€™t doing much. Bad day, but it couldā€™ve been worse.

Quick question

I bought a brand new ram in November and got t boned 3 weeks into having it. I finally got it back from the auto body shop and when I put it in reverse the camera only showed up on half of my touch screen. I could have sworn it took up the whole touch screen. Does anybody have a 2025 that can give me feedback as to if that is true or am I imagining things. Thank you

2015 Ram 2500 Crew Cab for first truck?

Hey everyone, settled into my first job and looking to upgrade my vehicle (been driving the same car since high school and college). I do a lot of fishing and hunting so I want to get a truck that has room for decoys, gear, rods, ect. I know a lot of people recommend gasoline if you are not towing, which I am not. I plan to get a boat but not sure when. Iā€™m leaning towards diesel because of the reliability of the Cummins. One Iā€™m looking at has 103k miles and Iā€™m getting a decent price. I plan on building a bed frame to fit in the bed so I can camp while fishing/hunting. Would you guys recommend this truck? Thanks yall!

Aftermarket front bumper

2018, 1500 Express, quad cab, 5.7 hemi

Some guy stopped short and I almost stopped in time. His hitch just cracked my bumper.

Are any of these Amazon aftermarket companies that sell bolt on steel bumpers any good? Iā€™d rather not spend 2k on a rough country or something. Anyone have one that they like?

Questions on replacement large format 'infotainment' systems for a 2017

I've been looking to replace my stock radio in my 2017 Big Horn with one of the newer 10 inch aftermarket versions. So far I've looked at:
Workshop 12's version:
https://workshoptwelve.com/products/dodge-ram-2014-2021
And Phoenix Automotive:
https://phoenixautomotiveinc.com/products/12-1-13-android-13-fast-boot-vertical-screen-navi-radio-for-dodge-ram-2009-2018?variant=44302581072058

The W12 looks to be a Pixel tablet with 8GB of RAM, and the PA is an android tablet customizable to 4/6/12GB of RAM. I like that W12 has an OMBII interface option. The 6GB PA is $275 cheaper (with coupon) than the W12 with 8GB.

Has anyone else done any comparisons between these two? Are there any others I should look at?

Problem with tire pressure warnings and temperature

Even though Iā€™ve lived in Ohio all of my life, which, for those that donā€™t know has variable weather, Iā€™ve never had this issue with any vehicles. When it got really cold, the last couple of weeks I got a tire low inflate warning, telling me to inflate to 39 psi. The issue is that when I do that by the time it warms up a little bit, it goes up to 42-44psi depending on the temperature. So I guess my question is do people with do rams just constantly adjust their tire pressure depending on the weather or do you wait until a certain season to do it, etc. Iā€™m just getting really damn tired of these warnings about tire pressure. I knew going into this that the computer systems were terrible because they were the same as my 22 Jeep (which did shit like turn the lights on and off when you were driving, did not let the radio work if it was below 30Ā°, would randomly turn on turn signals, fun stuff like that). Any help is really appreciated.
