This is interesting. I was watching a movie on Friday night and a commercial break came on. I know, I should pay for no commercials, but I like the break sometimes to run to the bathroom. Anyway, I checked social media and saw several comments in a row about plastic control arms for 5th gen Ram trucks. I had NOT heard this one before.

So, I did some research and found an excellent article. The next day I filmed this. What’s really interesting is I put out a similar video as a short on TikTok, Instagram and Facebook on Saturday. The comments on that video are overwhelming negative. The comments on the YT video are, so far, positive. I think it was partly due to the way the video was done on the social media platforms. You have a three minute timeframe and I don’t know if I’ve quite nailed it yet delivering a good video in that short amount of time.

The funniest part of this video are all the comments about how "this will be a complete failure" and "it will never work!". I think they really didn't pay attention to the part about being done since 2019 with no issues.

I really like the people who state "one pot hole and it is done." It has been SIX years. Pretty sure, it would have hit a pothole by now. LOL
