My 06 QC finally turned 300k miles today, after eleven+ years of daily driving. This has been an exceptionally reliable truck, and the highest mileage Viper motor that I'm aware of. On to 400!

Passed 200k on the way home from work tonight in my 06 QC. Fantastic truck. Only had two significant failures since this post: http://www.vtcoa.com/forums/f7/my-06-qc-passed-150k-yesterday-48983/ One was a totally integrated power module (TIPM) which killed off my power windows. The other...

While driving from SC to Montreal, Canada for the Formula 1 race. Been a terrific daily driver. In all those miles I've only had two significant failures - a broken valve spring around 70k miles and a bad fan motor assembly around 90k. Both fixed under extended warranty. Other than that...

I have had a continuing problem with my 06 QC of bending the factory rims. Not enough to see, but enough that the balance is off. I have two full sets of factory rims and all 8 have had the same problem. Now the balance issue is so bad that being in the truck is like riding in a paint can...

My truck has been sidelined for three weeks now due to a part my dealer can't get from Chrysler. Now they are told April 27 is earliest delivery date. I can't be without the truck that long. If anyone can help me locate the following I would be quite grateful: Part #5290438AF "Radiator Fan...

When I went to get tires last time, three of my four wheels were bent. I bought a used set on eBay, but when I had the tires balanced this week I found out that two of the four new ones are now bent. They are all bent on the inner surface, and my Dodge mechanic (who I trust implicitly) has...

August 27, 2006 2007 Dodge Ram SRT10: Overpriced, Overpowered and Proud of It By EZRA DYER "TIDAL power generators harness the energy of water flowing to and fro through a channel during each tidal cycle. What does this have to do with the Dodge Ram SRT10 Quad Cab? Well, if the principle...

Some people have asked about adding aux inputs to our radios before. This morning I installed Peripheral Electronics CHYX adapter in my truck, along with their PXP01V iPod adapter cable. The CHYX was $110 at Discount Car Stereo.com and the iPod cable was $52. I had originally wanted their...

I stumbled across this part of Dodge's site recently: http://www.goods.dodge.com/product.asp?webgroup=12&categoryID=vs_dg_srt_C They have some cool SRT-branded stuff. I ordered the keychain and the watch, which arrived today. Both very cool - especially the watch (although the instructions...

Does anyone know for sure whether the polished wheels that come on the SRT-10 are clear-coated or not? Just curious about what products are appropriate for cleaning the wheels. My usual wheel cleaner says not to use on polished wheels. I have a mag/aluminum wheel cleaner which is fine for...

Anyone know how to properly remove the overhead console for an 06? I'd like to hardwire my radar detector into the wiring in that console, but I couldn't figure out how to get the console out safely (the part with the trip computer, HomeLink buttons, reading lights, etc). There is one...

For the 06 QC, are there any adjustments on the amplifier like there would be on aftermarket equipment? I find the sub level in my truck to be low relative to the rest of the music, and turning up the bass control doesn't help since the frequency of that control must be above the crossover point...
