These auctions, for the last year, are reflecting the jump in value in the used vehicle market, closing $5K-$10K higher than they were two years ago.
That's wild. Not surprising just wild.

FS: 2018 Ram Power Wagon w/75k Miles - $43k

I will add more pictures of interior and exterior the weekend of 7/2. A Las Vegas truck since new (zero rust), religiously maintained, with all fluids changed in the last 10k miles (brake, power steering, diffs, transmission, transfer case). This truck has been well loved and has pin striping and a ...

Re: Battery time

I'll be honest, I usually like to upgrade the battery but my stock battery in my 2018 wagon is still going strong after 3 years and 50k miles.

In the Las Vegas desert I usually only get 2 years out of batteries.

When it fails, I'm going to replace it with the exact same battery.

Re: Going without TPMS Sensors

My tpms saved me fender when I had a fast leak on the highway. If my tpms didn't start yelling at me, it probably would have shreaded the tire into my fender before I noticed (been there done that in a different truck).

But to each there own.

Re: Poll: Ram TRX vs Supercharged PW w/thuren king 37s

I wonder how much of a difference a supercharger would make on these 8klb pigs? Especially with heavy 37" tires. I feel like we would need at least 150+hp and 150+tq to make a noticeable difference.

Does anyone want to volunteer as tribute for next year's PWIM? 😁

I've got the DR650 dual channel and it works well for me. Not so much for the action cam stuff but the price of mind.

I'm a big fan of there dashcams and will probably get the 900 series in my next vehicle.

Good info about the cloud feature.
