    GPS Track Recording

    I need some suggestions from the brain trust here. I've just migrated from a Jeep Gladiator to a Ram 2500. In the Gladiator I had a (alight older) Garmin DriveSmart 61 on the dashboard. It didn't get a lot of use for actual routing, but by having it mounted there I always had a map in view, and...

    New 2023 Ram 2500 Rebel

    Hah, thanks! The cash was definitely a pain point here. Buying a new vehicle in 2023 is just not a good experience. I’ve done a few small changes/mods so far. I’ll try to get them posted up soon.

    New 2023 Ram 2500 Rebel

    I've heard good things about the bags and cradles. Honestly that's probably more stable for heavy loads since the bags sit further outboard than the springs. If you choose to go with a spring swap someone on the HDRams forum already used my VIN to find the spring part numbers. Apparently the...

    New 2023 Ram 2500 Rebel

    Thanks! Honestly they're nearly the same other than suspension, so if you're not worried about what the sticker says you could always swap your springs for Rebel springs and have the same truck, but with two lockers and a disconnecting sway bar.

    New 2023 Ram 2500 Rebel

    Those reasons are exactly why I got it. The PW is awesome off-road, but can't tow or haul enough. The regular trucks are great at tow and haul, but don't have a locker, or an option for a winch from the factory.

    New 2023 Ram 2500 Rebel

    The payload sticker says 2872, putting my curb weight at 7128. The eagle is my wife's doing, but really if you stand around in the mountains of Idaho long enough you're likely to see several. It is the 6.4. The Cummins just doesn't make sense for my use case, or financially, plus the huge...

    New 2023 Ram 2500 Rebel

    Picked up my new 2500 Rebel the other day. So far I'm loving it, though the only "off pavement" it's been able to do so far was some mildly packed snow. Real off-road driving is likely a month or 2 away still here in Idaho. This truck will serve double-duty, both towing our 26' travel trailer...

    Thanks! Good question. It’s the 3.6L gas engine. The EcoDiesel isn’t available on the Mojave.

    SOLD*** 2021 Jeep Gladiator Mojave - Boise, ID

    Selling my 2021 Jeep Gladiator Mojave, in Sarge Green. It has 23,011 miles as of this afternoon, and aside from some pitting on the rear plastic fender flares from gravel (see detail photo) it's in amazing condition. The truck has never been in an accident and has had no issues so far that have...
