Ram (Page 17)

2016 Ram Truck owners are complaining that in cold weather, their truck windows are falling off the tracks and down into their doors.

Although Ford is using the 2017 Detroit Auto Show to introduce their refreshed 2018 F150, no trucks are better represented in the Motor City than the Ram Brand trucks – which has a big section packed with different types of vehicles to draw in truck lovers of all kinds, including the Hellcat Hemi-powered Ram Rebel TRX Concept.

The owner of a brand new 2017 Ram pickup wants to know if his remote start can be programmed to add other features. Surprisingly, between the fob and UConnect App, all sorts of creature comforts are available.

The owner of a 2016 Ram Laramie is asking other members of a Ram forum for help. He says that his truck smells like an animal has died in the engine compartment. He is hoping someone can help him solve it.

There hasn’t been much said about FCA’s plans for the upcoming Detroit Auto Show, but we know that the new Ram Rebel Black will make its grand debut in the Motor City and while this package is fairly minimal – it is still one great looking truck.

It is an issue that drives just about every driver crazy. Apple forces you to download the latest operating system and your connection in your vehicle stops working. Some members of a Ram Truck forum try to get an owner back on track.

Full size trucks are the most popular vehicles in the US market and with 2016 being a big year for big trucks, we have put together a list of some of the most significant news stories of our 2016 coverage of the full size truck segment in the US – including Ford, General Motors, Nissan, Ram and Toyota.

Most vehicles have cabin air filters. For some reason, many Ram 1500s do not. They are supplied for the 2017 Ram 1500, but there is a relatively easy modification available for other Ram owners.

The NHTSA has opened a new investigation to see if the rotary shift mechanisms in the newer Ram 1500 and Dodge Durango are faulty – or if the people having issues with those vehicles just aren’t bright enough to understand how their vehicle functions.

FCA has announced the pricing for the new 2017 Ram 2500 Power Wagon and with a price starting just over $53,000 and climbing up around $57,500, the heavy duty, Hemi-powered Ram truck is priced very comparably to the 2017 Ford F150 Raptor.

While the 1950 Dodge D100 shown above doesn’t preface a future high performance model, this crate Hemi-powered rat rod pickup was among the most popular old school rides at the 2016 SEMA Show – with a crowd gathered around this patina-clad machine all week long.

A technical service bulletin was issued for 2016 Ram EcoDiesel trucks this summer but now it is extended to 2015 models.

Not all Ram Trucks were available with matching towing mirrors. A number of companies have manufactured custom blind-spot mirrors that you can add to your existing mirrors.

The Ram Brand introduced a Hellcat-powered Ram Rebel last month, but the “Hellfire” Ram 1500 from the 2016 SEMA Show is the supercharged Ram truck that we really want – looking like the perfect modern day replacement for the Dodge Ram 1500 SRT10.

The IIHS has announced the results of their new headlight ratings test for the top trucks in the US market and the Ford F150, the Ram 1500, the Chevrolet Silverado, the Toyota Tundra and the Nissan Titan all did fairly poorly in the test – making you wonder how seriously a test can be taken when almost every vehicle in a popular segment fails the test.

The new trailer for the Wolverine 3 Logan movie is out on YouTube and several Fiat Chrysler vehicles are featured. Ram Trucks are especially prominent.

We know that there is a Hellcat Hemi-powered Jeep Grand Cherokee on the way in the next year or so and we expect that it will be called the Trackhawk, but before the Ram Rebel TRX Concept we had never seen a Hellcat in anything other than a rear-drive car – leading me to believe that the Hellcat Ram Concept is intended to tease the Hellcat Jeep.

Germany is trying to outlaw all diesels by 2030. Could that type of action in the European Union take hold in America? Would they ever legislate the demise of popular trucks, like this Ecodiesel that was voted Rocky Mountain Truck of the Year in 2015?

The question just popped up today, from a guy named Glenn who is buying his first Ram truck. He wants to put a bed cover on it immediately. “I think I only need an 'entry level' cover and I have been looking at the TonnoPro Soft Tri-Fold cover. Are there any "Beware" stories about ANY covers? Things to watch out for, etc?”

Whether you are looking to dress up your Ram or just personalize it, what is the best aftermarket bumper for a 2010-2016 Ram truck? A driver asked a Ram forum about a bumper that doesn't protrude too much and got plenty of suggestions.

The American performance world was rocked yesterday when FCA introduced their new Hellcat Hemi-powered Ram Rebel TRX Concept, but in looking at the features which make this truck so special – I believe that this incredible performance truck could reach production in pretty much the same form as the image shown above.

This morning we brought you the news of the incredible new Ram Rebel TRX Concept, featuring the supercharged 6.2L Hellcat Hemi and while the collection of high resolution images didn’t include engine bay pictures – we have acquired a set of shots showing the Hellcat Hemi nestled into the engine bay of the gorgeous Ram 1500 concept.

FCA announced this morning that the incredible Ram Rebel TRX Concept will debut at the 2016 Texas State Fair with Hellcat Hemi power – although this monster performance truck doesn’t pack the same big power as the Hellcat-powered Dodge Challenger and Charger.

As the winter weather approaches, Ram truck owners are comparing notes on why they get rustproofing reapplied every year and what type works the best.

Ram Truck is rolling out new ads this week to target Spanish speaking buyers. The ads focus on hardworking people who are their own bosses. The ads will run on Telemundo and UniMas, in both the U.S. and Mexico.

Spy shots floating around the internet show that FCA is working on some sort of super-extended cab version of the Ram 1500 – presumably something like the Ram 2500 Mega Cab in half ton form.

FCA, Honda American and Land Rover NA will all be recalling vehicles to address a wiring issue with the 9-speed ZF automatic transmission after the transmission supplier itself announced a recall of a component in some 505,000 vehicles.

While there is no sign of FCA planning to build a Ram pickup with the supercharged Hellcat Hemi, a dealership in Ontario, Canada has built a Hellcat-powered pickup truck for one of their customers – complete with 707 horsepower, four wheel drive and a unique body upgrades.

There are some reports floating around the internet which suggest that the 2017 Ram 1500 will feature the supercharged 6.2L Hemi V8 and while the idea of a 707hp pickup is an alluring one – these reports of such a vehicle coming for the 2017 model year are completely unfounded nonsense made up by clickbait sites.

The Ram 1500 Rebel is the newest Moparized vehicle, joining the Dodge Challenger, the Dodge Charger, the Dodge Dart and the Chrysler 300 on the list of vehicles given the factory upgrade treatment, but as has been the case in the past – the Mopar 16 Ram will be limited to just 500 units.
