To add some more info here, I had the oil changed on my truck at the dealer as I was still due a free one, so I took it. I recently had back surgery for my pinched sciatic nerve so I went to the dealer. They used Valvoline premium blue 5w-40 and recommended my next oil change at 5000 miles...

Considering how much soot there is from the EGR in our oil, I think that the lube oil could use all the help it can get and use what the owners manual recommends. I prefer the Rotella T6 5w-40 with a Fleetguard stratapore filter and I change and sample my own oil. At our power plants I work...

The bigger 295 tire would not fit between the rear track bar and the back of the receiver hitch, and next to the heat shield next to the tail pipe. With the 275 stock spare there is about 1/2" clearance at best on my truck between all these parts. I did not try bleeding the air pressure off and...

The 295's fit the truck just fine, no rubbing. They do drive better than the original Firestones, steering and smoothness wise. With my experience and looking at the various tire specs, a 285/65 would fit in back but not a 285/75. As far as the rear spare, I was originally thinking about...

My 2003 went 10 years on the original set of batteries so I bought a new set of Mopar batteries from the dealer, and were reasonably priced (at the time). The replacements were still in the truck when I traded six years later and tested just fine then.

This week I went out and bought a new set of AT3's XLTs for my 2020 2500. The stock tires were LT275R70-18s. After quite a bit of thought I settled on a set of larger LT295R70-18s on the stock rims plus a new spare of the same size. The new tires ride great and are super quite and fit with...

I have a friend of mine that placed the order for a 2500 Big Horn May 5th of 2021. It has yet to be received but has been on the second train for the last two weeks. He hopes to get it by Christmas ;). Another friend ordered a 2500 Longhorn Limited in early June 2021 and it was delivered...

After reading the owners manual, with all the different doodads the truck has it's probably a good idea to get one. These are sophisticated machines. Thanks for the input from everyone! The MSRP on these trucks are about as much as I spent on my house 30 years ago. I plan to take my time...

Is there any advantage to buy an extended warranty early rather than wait a couple of years?

I'm on my 6th Ram/Dodge trucks since 1994, three of which were Cummins. I owned my 2003 3500 Cummins for 17 years and 130K miles, it never left me stranded (nor did any of the other Rams) except once when I broke a front u-joint pulling a small but heavy tractor pulling sled out of deep sand...

I agree, the original post looks like facebook material.

It was a tight squeeze, on my 2003 cummins I did not have to remove the fan. I stood on the bumper to change it and rotated the fan to the right position in between the blades. I used a combination wrench with a cheater to loosen the bolts and a short 3/8" drive socket extension or no...

On my 2003 3500 SRW QC 4x4, my first water pump started leaking at 98K in 2015. The dealer replaced it with a mopar/cummins unit. A little over two years later the new one failed with about 10k on it. I was driving out in the boonies when it failed and just happened to make it to a nearby rest...

Nebo slider flash light with strong magnetic base to the rescue! With the magnetic base you can place it anywhere you like. It has a flash light and a seperate side slide light that can stay on or blink if you like. There are two separate lights in one 8" long unit. I buy these for work and...
