    6-passenger (front bench) TRX

    A bench seat from a '19-up 1500 should bolt right in, I'd think. For the shifter you'd have to make something up. Probably easiest to use one of those dreaded rotary shifters.

    Lift Types—Help Me Decide

    Thankfully, vehicles are a hobby for me these days. So my repairs don't have to be efficient, just very good. Besides, I do mostly maintenance - that way there's not much need for repairs.

    Any repairs in particular that require a 2-post? I know I do a lot of things wrong, but please don't add too much more to the list.

    Lift Types—Help Me Decide

    Maybe it doesn't do it any good, but my cheap 4-post has been outside for some six years now. Says it can't be exposed to weather, but I keep the motor (rain/snow) and the plastic fluid tank (brutal UV) covered. So far so good, even though the paint has indeed faded. And I do spray some lube on...

    Well, yeah. There's not exactly a lack of free beer or booze there.

    Stumbled into that older version at about 2 AM during SEMA one year. Fully dressed, yet quite revealing, so to speak.

    Lift Types—Help Me Decide

    Since I don't own a Biscayne, that's not a problem for me. The 4-post is always available. On the other hand, there's usually a Ram 3500 parked "in" the 2-post. But even if that spot was empty, it's so much quicker to drive up on the 4-post and hit the button than it is to get all four pads on...

    Yet I use the 4-post 10 to one compared to the 2-post. Guess I'm just backwards, as usual.

    I do. I really do.

    Or two bottle jacks.

    Not really, I think. It's no worse than doing it with the vehicle on the floor...but at a more convenient height.

    And the corresponding Dannmar will do it for a bit less money. Same company.

    200 MPH Club Taxi

    For one, there's a reason we tend to have two of everything. We rarely go to the same places or together. Also, my first car was a small 2-seater convertible. I removed the passenger seat and put a mattress of sorts and a sleeping bag in its place. That worked out quite well...as long as the...

    What car did you dislike the most?

    Not sure what I've been doing wrong, but after having had maybe 200 cars, I can't recall a single one that I disliked. It may have to do with that I never bought one that I didn't like. Even the numerous $50 winter beater cars grew on me, to the point that it was sad to take them to the junk...

    Yep, a basic 4-post would be my choice, too. Mine could even be moved around with the included wheels, if for some reason I wanted to.

    Can the Ram 1500 TRX Still Be Cool Without 702 HP? We Think So

    No, there's nothing from the factory. Guess they go for max articulation over road manners. Seems like the very softly sprung TRX squats on the right rear when stomping on it, then the torque steer from the front makes it wiggle a bit. In my case, I'm mostly trying to induce a bit of over...

    Can the Ram 1500 TRX Still Be Cool Without 702 HP? We Think So

    Do you know for a fact that they will reach 60 mph?

    Can the Ram 1500 TRX Still Be Cool Without 702 HP? We Think So

    I'm gonna have to run mine against my girlfriend's and see how it does. Put a rear sway bar on hers as she complained about it getting a bit squiggly when pushing the skinny pedal. That's something I really haven't noticed on mine. Have the bar ready to go on, but want more of a baseline first.

    Can the Ram 1500 TRX Still Be Cool Without 702 HP? We Think So

    Guess I should check if mine is stuck in valet mode. It does have some other electronic-related misbehavior going on.

    Can the Ram 1500 TRX Still Be Cool Without 702 HP? We Think So

    It's not slow, for a factory pickup. And until I get narrower tires on mine, to help with lateral stability, it'll likely stay under 105 or so. For now, 85-95 seems to be what it likes. And yes, just the other day i was thinking that 797 hp would probably be just about right...if the drive...
