    Engine failure 42k

    If I remember correctly, I believe that there was a run of engines made that either had a bearing or journal installed incorrectly in the bottom of the block, or they had a bad supply of bearings or journals. I think these motors were built in the second half of 2014. To validate this, it...

    ecodiesel motor failure

    Look around the internet, because there are others that have had this. If memory serves me correctly there were some 2014's around June, July build dates I think, that had a defective rod or bearing, or was improperly installed. To make things worse, many of the technicians at the dealers are...

    Warm ups and Cool Downs

    Something in memory keeps telling me that the heater core is actually on it's own independent circuit separate from the turbo. I just don't remember where I saw or heard about this. Can anyone speak to this? In other words, turning on the heater full blast with the temp all the way up would...

    Time to convert?

    Great minds think alike! I too chose the granite crystal metallic for this reason, and I'm happy I did.

    Time to convert?

    Spinyata, you are at the right dealership. As you mentioned the styling, ride, comfort, etc., I too think the Rams are on top right now. So, how can you go wrong if you know you want a 1500? You could choose from either the 6 cylinder Pentastar gasser, or the EcoDiesel. I love my EcoDiesel...

    Must have option? I'm about to pull the trigger

    You know I've been thinkin about your 'Must Haves' question, and I think much has been covered. Then it popped in my head, is there something that you don't want? And actually one thing that I'm not nuts about is that I have the Laramie with the projector beams, and I remember trying out a...

    Must have option? I'm about to pull the trigger

    Not only is this my first truck and a diesel at that, but it's also the first time that we have ordered a vehicle. If you have the time, get your rig outfitted the way you want! Don't be afraid to do an order. The only thing you really need to be aware of is that you will get whatever...

    Poor ecodiesel horn... dissapointed

    Couple of things. First, I don't like the horn either. There's probably a relay involved or something that makes for the delay. Second, is that it needs a lot of pressure to engage the contacts. However, I've noticed with mine, that with use it's not as hard to engage. (And no it's not my...

    Best Wax you have used?

    No special steps. Also since our trucks are relatively new, there really isn't any oxidation yet so the sealant will take well to the clear coat. Just follow the directions... Won't last a millennium, but getting a year out of a treatment is pretty darn good.

    my intro (not a owner... yet?)

    I think you guys are in the right time to get an EcoDiesel. I truly think that all the issues that people have seen in the past have been resolved. I think the only thing that remains questionable are the DEF issues in the great frozen north, but outside of this, this is one hard truck to beat...

    Must have option? I'm about to pull the trigger

    I highly recommend getting a limited slip differential. Hopefully it has this. The Ram rubber floor mats are great. The back seat floor mat is one continuous piece that goes from one side over the hump to the other side, so if someone sits in the middle with wet or snowy boots it still...

    Best Wax you have used?

    I have stepped away from waxes. Let me explain... First let me say that if you want that deep glow & luster, nothing beats a wax with carnuba in it. On the other hand it doesn't make a great sealer - At least for me anyways. Both my vehicles are outside and not under a car porch or anything...

    Accidental gas in an Ecodiesel

    RamJo, so sorry you had to go through this! I too am a first time diesel owner and have the same fear of putting gas into the diesel tank. I keep telling myself to think 'Green'. Put green-to-green. Green hose to green filler cap. I got one of those Geno's garage magnetic green gas caps...

    Folding Bed Cover or Shell?

    For what it's worth everyone, I have put this to rest. I have chosen a SnugTop cap / shell. Very happy with it. Figured out that we want to take the dog w/us often (around town he is harnessed in to the tie downs, and for trips he will be crated). Also when we go camping with our family of...
