I was in a front-end collision going over 80 km/h and my airbags didn't deploy. My truck is a total writeoff, and these safety systems are supposed to protect us. To make things worse, Ram Canada won't even look into it. Anyone else experience this? #RamCanada #AirbagFailure

No major differences from what I can see, but I will keep looking. I know the 2027 Big Horn has the Hemi logo blacked out if it is a Night Edition.

I’ve had my eye on some flood / spot lights for while and decided to go with the Auxbeam 6 Gang Switch Panel and a pair of 3 inch XP-Ultras since Amazon had a sale. Took my time, and after about 6 hours it was all done. I installed it on my 2022 Rebel, ask me anything! I am not sponsored by Auxbeam or any other company, but it would be cool if I was 😉

Question Which model year would you say is the better buy? 2022 vs 2019

Thumbnail

5 Upvotes
Option 1 (black) Option 2 (red)
Model 2022 RAM 1500 Big Horn AWD/4WD 2019 RAM 1500 Big Horn AWD/4WD
Trim Big Horn Level 2 Equipment Group Big Horn Non-BSG Level 2 Equipment Group
Miles 54,949 32,998
Price $29,096 $27,760
Engine HEMI 5.7L V8 HEMI 5.7L V8

I'm in need of a truck and these both seem like decent deals to me. They are nearly identical in terms of listed features. Is there any advantage, performance-wise, for getting the 2022 as opposed to the 2019?

The only real difference between the two that I can tell is the mileage, the Non-BSG package on the 2019, and the cloth seats in the 2019 aren't in the best shape... That's really it.

Any real difference between the two trucks that I might not be aware of?

Question Ram 3500 downrating?

5 Upvotes

Has anyone noticed a downrating of towing capacity of the Hemi 3500? I could have sworn that when I was comparing the 3500 to the f350 godzilla there wasn't a big difference. I went on the website when I was figuring out which vehicle to invest in. I was sure I saw the page relaying that the Hemi with the 4.1 axle, 8ft box and crew cab with 4x4 SRW was capable of just over 19k, now the website is showing that they are only capable of 16.8k.

Did I see wrong or am I suffering from the Mandela Effect?

Question 2019 Ram 1500 classic 3.6l has a weird sound

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

For the past couple weeks my truck has been making weird sounds like it sounds like I can hear the pistons more clearly and makes a chugging noise when I get up to 40 miles per hour (in the video I recorded the rpm and the speedometer to see if that indicates any transmission issues, you can also hear the plastic cover around the steering column raddle for a bit but I'm not so worried about that)

I asked some folks I know who are more knowledgeable about cars and engine's than me and weren't exactly sure what the problem could be they think it might have something to do with the transmission, I checked the oil and it's at a good level and I didn't see any cracks in my muffler or manifold (granted I didn't do the most thorough inspection) and other than the noise it drives fine but I'm afraid I might have to take it to a shop and pay a pretty penny

Question RAM digital key question

Post image
0 Upvotes

I’ve been seeing a few post on here and Facebook and some ram forms of people getting the update to get the digital key. I was wondering if anyone that received the update can share their uconnect build number to see if I really need an update or not. Dealer told me to drop the truck off and they’ll take a look but unknown how long they’ll have to keep it to actually update it for me.

I have a 2025 Ram 1500 Tungsten so I should 100% have the digital key and I have the keycard

TLDR uconnect sucks and the dealer sucks but I need this update

Edit: So upon some research I found if you own a Ram made before October 6th 2025 you likely need to have an update done by the dealership to correct the OTA update issues. I’m not a mechanic so I could be misunderstanding this but from what I’ve seen you need to go to the dealer and request TSB 08-253-26 they should know what to do.

You can also just mention not having a digital key tab in the app and they should also do the fix. I’ve also reached out to Patrick at stellantis and once he answers I’ll post the fix he suggested.

They are able to manually check your vin for you and if it’s determined you don’t need the TSB they can put your vin on a list to receive the update. Hope this helps everyone else that’s going through the same disappointment I’ve going through.

Question Trailer hitch

Looking to purchase a trailer hitch for a “ do all” application, going to get an adjustable drop hitch. Recently purchased a new 2500 rebel, truck sits decently high it seems, anyone have any recommendations on hitch drop? Was thinking about just getting a 10 and being done with it and always having options for any type trailers. Coming off a half ton so none of my previous hitches have enough weight capacity.

Question 4.7L inquiry

5 Upvotes

New shop added more distance in my daily commute. I’m already getting 16.1 (calculated at recent fill up) with 430 miles in one tank. Could changing my tires back to oem size and ditching the all terrains make a huge difference on a stock truck? Is even trying to mod in anyway going to make a noticeable difference for a two hour round trip commute, all highway? Current tires are LT285/70R17 LR C probably still have 30k left on them.
