1. Wish there were lights under the hood.

 

2. Wish a manual transmission option was available. A TRUE MANUAL TRANSMISSION, NOT SOME GARBAGE BUTTONS.

 

3. Wish you could permanently remove the traction / stabilitrac feature and re-engage it when you feel like it.

 

4. Wish the hood scoop option from the factory was an actual true functioning ram hood.

Thanks, I got her as basic as I could so I could add what I wanted and not be stuck with things that I didn't. The rims were an old set from a Tahoe I had a few years ago that I had laying around.

An option for covered storage compartments on the sides of the box like Dodge has for their pickups. And option of a spare tire mount in the bed.

Rear AC vents.

 

An even front end with the rear without worry of premature ball joint wear from a leveling kit.

 

My driver seat slide/click to go away.

 

Glad I don't have capless fuel. My 2010 Ford work truck has it and has constant trouble with "check fuel filler" codes.

I wish my regular cab came with...

 

storage under the center seat. (40/20/40 bench)

 

Bed lights in all four corners rather than two.

 

Aux switch bank.

 

Fog lights or atleast just the wiring.

 

Leveled with airbags in the rear.

 

Controllable rear facing camera rather than on only when in reverse.

 

More durable paint.

 

Led's all around.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver.

      Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....

      Gas Prices

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.

      Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
