    High oil temps while towing

    Okay, since you asked nicely, I will.

    High oil temps while towing

    For whatever reason, it looks like TRXs and Durangos run much higher oil temps than Challengers do. I'm made a cover for the cooler on my Challenger to be able to get it up to temp.

    What did you do to your Hellcat today?

    That's an equalizing feature, giving you the same amount of oxygen as I get up here with a clean filter - where the filters stay clean.

    Which Rumble Bee?

    Somebody mentioned a $18K discount at Mark Dodge, but that sure sounds like an RHO price, not something with a V8.

    Which Rumble Bee?

    That sure doesn't sound logical, vortecd. If one is good, two (or more) must be better yet - be it in car, pickup, or SUV form.

    Which Rumble Bee?

    Yeah, I also wish they would come without a back seat. And consequently with the proper amount of doors. Several ways around paying an ADM. In my case it'll be either through my favorite dealer or Mark Dodge. Which one gets the order depends on how much below MSRP I'm offered.

    2027 Ram 1500 Rumble Bee Muscle Trucks Launch All-new Pickup Performance Subsegment

    Got my Durango on 10-1, just broke 1,000 miles on it. And that's my "daily driver".

    2027 Ram 1500 Rumble Bee Muscle Trucks Launch All-new Pickup Performance Subsegment

    Good point. My current 2-door to taxi ratio isn't the best. But at least the 2-doors are still in the lead.

    2027 Ram 1500 Rumble Bee Muscle Trucks Launch All-new Pickup Performance Subsegment

    Unfortunately that pricing would make it very tempting to keep the TRX and add a Rumble Bee. A winter and a summer version if you will. But if there's one thing I really don't need it's another vehicle that doesn't get driven.

    2027 Ram 1500 Rumble Bee Muscle Trucks Launch All-new Pickup Performance Subsegment

    I dunno. All my '17 3500 does is pull trailers, that's what I bought it for. Except for the break-in period I can count on one hand how many times it wasn't pulling something. I have other vehicles to drive when not towing. And a girlfriend that does more than cook dinner.

    2027 Ram 1500 Rumble Bee Muscle Trucks Launch All-new Pickup Performance Subsegment

    I'll be glad to get back into a Quad Cab again. After all, I get reminded every day that a TRX with its micro bed is only 26 inches shorter than a Ram 3500 crew cab longbed. They're parked next to each other so hard to ignore. Meanwhile, I really like it when a more powerful version looks the...

    What did you do to your Hellcat today?

    Nope. Back when we still had actual winters they would happily ruin perfectly nice and clean roads with hardpacked snow into a slushy and corrosive mess. Better yet, they would spread that shit, then go by with the plows. That's logic so flawed you'd swear it's from the east coast.

    What did you do to your Hellcat today?

    Oddly enough, our local small mountain of "red shit" (cinder and salt) is still mostly intact. And has been for two years since we haven't had any winter lately.

    BOYCOTT all Stellantis vehicles. This is too much.

    You wouldn't have to plow as much if you had a TRX. They're good for up to 23 inches of snow I've found...and not just the light fluffy stuff.

    BOYCOTT all Stellantis vehicles. This is too much.

    Well worth it, compared to not much less for the RHO version. Or even a well optioned regular 1500. Besides, a few dealers will happily take about $10 K off of MSRP...while some will likely add ADM instead.

    BOYCOTT all Stellantis vehicles. This is too much.

    I know you don't like the Durango, but love 1500s. So what's wrong with a 1500 that has 702 hp?

    What did you do to your Hellcat today?

    On Challengers, Chargers, and Durangos, those posts work just fine for a maintainer or solar charger. Where it can get tricky is when connecting directly to the battery. On Ram 3500s it works well, on TRXs it doesn't. Took me a while to figure it out, but bypassing the battery sensor can be a...

    What did you do to your Hellcat today?

    Other than reading about people that have had batteries ruined by those maintainers, no I have no data/evidence. But even if they were flawless, they don't have desulfation. To me that's almost as important as having a quality maintainer in the first place. I already mentioned their sledge...

    What did you do to your Hellcat today?

    In all fairness, their sledge hammers are both cheap and dependable. I have quite a few of those.

    What did you do to your Hellcat today?

    I know, I know. It's not that yours don't work for you, but for one, they don't work as well as a good maintainer does. More importantly, to me anything electrical from HF is scary, and I have several smoked angle grinders to back that statement up. I do have multimeters from HF, but they...
