    Chinese looking to buy Jeep

    Marcionne did float it out there that he'd consider spinning the division off I believe. As Colonal Kurtz once said, "the horror... the horror... https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/cars/2017/08/21/great-wall-motor-jeep-fiat-chrysler-automobiles/585225001/

    Solar battery minder in cigarette lighter

    Will it work on these 4th gen trucks in a lighter plug that's always hot? My truck gets parked for at least 4 weeks at a time in a parking lot. Never bothered with it before but I have a small still in the box 2.5 watt minder sitting on a shelf. If I can just plug it in, throw the solar panel...

    Transmission Toast? 2012 Town & Country

    My wife's van, 130,000 miles. Whining, whirring and knocking coming from transmission. No sounds until I put it in drive, it'll slip and jerk changing gears. I can put it in neutral then the noise will slowly wind down. No CEL. There is no dipstick on these and there is no sign of any leaking. I...

    Rear seat cup holders, front seat floor console

    Anyone have any suggestions on some good cup holders for the back seat? I'm hoping to be doing a good bit camping with the 5er this summer. I'll have 3 kids in the back and the 2 cup holders in front of the middle seat will not suffice. The youngest one's feet and legs will be all over that...

    Moisture in Cab Clearence Lights

    There is a fair amount of moisture in 4 of the lights. I just finished washing the truck a few hours before and it rained about 6 days ago. Have any of you noticed any moisture in yours? Is it worth taking these off and sealing them myself or bringing it to the dealer to fix? Or is this nothing...

    Aisin Torque Converter Pattern

    When coasting down through the the gears without touching the brake pedal, what does the torque converter do. When does it engage/disengage. I feel a bump in the middle of 4th when letting my foot off the accelerator and just coasting and let the gears drop down. 6 to 5 is smooth, 5 to 4 is...

    Marchionne - "Merger with GM a high priority"

    Which truck line would get squashed, RAM or GMC? I guess even if RAM stayed they would just be a Chevy with a different grill and badge. http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/09/06/us-fiatchrysler-m-a-idUSKCN0R60OK20150906 Hopefully this will blow over. Again.

    Rear view camera guidance lines

    Does anyone know how to make the lines on the rear view camera stay straight? I don't like that mine curve with turning the wheel. I tried to get used to it and try to like it but just can't. My wife's 2012 Town and Country lines stay straight and, to me at least, it's a lot better that way.

    Intermittent power window fix

    My drivers window would not always work. After the truck would sit overnight the window would work a couple times. I could bang the lower part of the door around the window motor and half the time that would work. I found out through a roundabout way and after a couple different part purchases...

    3500 Auto-Level Long Term Maintenance & Life Span

    I’ve got two trucks that are on my radar. Each salesmen have both threw down some good deals and I think there is a little more to work with. One has the Auto-Level option. I like the concept, purpose and all that it is but it was never anything I was actually shopping for. I figured if one came...

    Towing sweet spot '06 w/3:73 vs '15 w/3:73

    I know the rear ends have been talked about plenty of times and have read most of the latest threads concerning it. But I'm trying to get an idea with a direct comparison to my current truck. I'm probably within 2 months of getting a '15 DRW CC LB w/Aisin. With my stock '06 2500 MC 4x4...

    8.4 Radio vs 5.0

    If all goes well I may be getting a '15 CC LB DRW 4x4 at the end of summer. So what am I not getting with the 5" radio vs the 8.4" other than nav which is no big deal and the smaller back up camera view? What iPhone integration other than phone and music. Also, what does the 7" EVIC give...

    Air Intake Tube Elbow flipped lip

    Yesterday when looking over the engine planning out my gauge installs I noticed the intake elbow hose clamp was slightly misaligned. After this caught my attention I started looking into it more and feeling all the way around it to the underside. To my horror I realized the the bottom lip was...
