2017 ram 1500 5.7

Is 124k a lot for a hemi? I honestly don't know. I'm going to trade it in. Kept up with regular maintenance and everything. I owe 14 on it. Is it worth it to argue to pay off and then some? Any advice would be appreciated

First truck, second vehicle (I'm 19 in Canada)

Bought this 2013 1500 ST (3.6L) about a month ago for under $10,000. All it needed was an oil change. Had about 248,000 kilometers when I bought it, but I have been driving it for about a month and a half now.

I'm really enjoying it so far: good gas mileage for a full size truck, and a pretty decent amount of get up and go.

What’s your guys opinion on 4th and 5th Gen? People who own and have put at least 10k-15 miles

Debating on upgrading, but I want to know the Pros and Cons to them. Well we all have an idea of the pros, but you get my point. What should I be worried about? I know they have electrical issues at times. What’s the best test to you? How do you feel about the E-Torque? I’m a hemi owner and skeptical on going that route. Looking at 4x4 V8 1500 Be brutally honest! And if you have alternative truck brands , let me know your insight! ( I still think ram is the best. Just an opinion) Thanks in advance 🤙🏽

RF hub fried again

I got a 2019 limited and woke up to a great surprise. The truck not responding to the key fob…after it rained all night. This is the 2nd time it’s happened in about 8 months or so. I love the truck and don’t want to get rid of it but not sure what else to do with it. Any advice on how to avoid or should I just drive it off a cliff..nvm can’t do that

Are the side mirror cameras supposed to point straight down?

I have a 2024 limited with the surround view. When I press the left or right mirror view it's just a view of literally the ground below the mirror. No use whatsoever. Am I missing something? I have other vehicles with this function that show the wheel to show distance to a curb or the side of the vehicle.

2003 Ram 2500 Rear Door Power Locks not working.

I have a 2003 Ram 2500 Quad Cab and recently the rear door locks stopped working. They work manually but no longer work from the key fob or the switch on the driver door. The front door locks and all windows work just fine. Any ideas what might be wrong? Are there any fuses I can check?

Thanks!

Identify Noise

Can anyone identify this noise from the back end? It gets louder with acceleration and quieter when I take my foot off the gas. It’s driving me crazy. 2014 Ram 1500

2014 ram 1500 sport with Uconnect

So for some reason, I keep getting the Uconnect “start up sound” playing for the last 20 minutes on repeat.

It doesn’t matter when. Can not turn it off. It will play below my music, or even when my truck is shut off.

I’ve factory reset my Uconnect and it’s still going while the vehicle is off. Not sure what to do anymore.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Dealer wants to do $1500 in recommended service during oil change.

Pretty sure they're full of it but here goes. It's a '21 Ram 1500 with the eTorque 5.7 with 50,000 miles on it. Dropped it off this morning for an oil change and a tire rotation. Service guy texts me and tell me they are suggesting I pay $1500 worth "for recommended services/preventative maintenance/repairs". I asked what they were and here's what the sent me: F+R caliper slide service, brake fluid flush, driveline service, fuel system service and PCV valve replacement. I hope someone in reddit land is a tech for Ram and can confirm my suspicion that they're trying to scam me out of $1500. BTW none of that is mentioned in the manual at 50,000 miles. Some of it isn't mentioned at all.

Thanks in advance!

3rd Gen fuel leak update

Fixed the fuel leak in the process a vacuum line snapped in half. Any one know what the vacuum line is for besides sucking air and making the pump run nonstop.

Bubbling sound when idle?

Recently I’ve noticed a bubbling sound coming from the front end when I’m sitting idle or driving slow in a parking lot. Sounds like liquid bubbling. Not sure if it getting cold out has something to do with it.

Any idea what this is and if it’s ok?

OEM Rock Rails

So I just got a bangin’ deal on some OEM rock rails, new take offs ($200). The issue I’m having is finding a hardware kit for them…or what one even looks like. Dealer called for me and they don’t sell the kit separately. There isn’t a photo online that I have found that shows what the hardware looks like and the dealers around here don’t have a Ram on their lot with them fitted. Could someone take a photo of the underside of their rails so I can see what I should be looking for? I’d assume it’s more than just some bolts through the pinch welds.

Loading 6' Round Tables

Super nervous, later on I will be picking up Eight 6 ft. Round banquet tables in my 2500. I plan on standing the tables up horizontally against the cab. This way, the tables will take up the entire width of the truck bed like in the attached picture. Except the tables in the picture are 5ft rounds, and I have 8 of them. Any advice? Anybody load 6ft rounds before?

Anyone else have this issue fueling?

I have a 2020 ram 1500 and fuel up at gas stations that have the little tongue you could put down on the pump so it fuels when you could sit in the car but I don’t know why after about five seconds it clicks off. I don’t know if it’s because where the nozzle goes is so tight and the truck stops it from fueling so fast or what? But it’s annoying, especially when it gets cold out and I want to sit in the truck any ideas?

Is dealership ripping me off for service or is it a coincidence?

I have a 2020 1500. I took it in to the dealership for warranty work on my manifolds. They text me saying that they had to jump my truck twice and is now on a charger. They want to replace the battery for 350 altogether. I haven’t had a problem with starting my truck ever. Then I drop it off, boom, dead battery.

Is that suspicious or is it just a complete coincidence?

Edit: I told them I’ll jump it when I pick it up and put in a battery myself, guess what was holding a charge and starting again? Maybe still a coincidence or someone didn’t check something.

Thank you for all the advice.

Infotainment swap

Has anyone ever gone from the 12" to the 8.4" screen. Is this possible? 2019 Longhorn. Like the 12" screen but it can be annoying and I prefer physical buttons (for heated and cooled seats). Is this even possible to do?
