I don't have one of these new Rams but saw this in another thread. There's a picture floating around here showing a cable near the top of the backside of the rear seat... on the driver's side IIRC. A few other pictures here show the seats folded down.

Interesting...

Serious question here, I promise I'm not trolling, but what parts of the country still need radar detectors? I thought I've been noticing law enforcement allowing substantial speeds above posted limits before getting involved. It seems they use to get ya for more than about 5 mph over, but 10...

A quick disclaimer: there is no standardization, or requirement, or regulation as for how manufacturers implement TPMS systems. I mean, yes, some basic things like FCC requirements and rejection of signals from other vehicles have to be there, but the nuance of how TPMS operates, behaves...

It isn't obvious that the rear-seat backs fold down; nobody would know unless you own a Ram. To the casual observer the rear-seat back is permanently fixed in place. My thought was to somehow hang a pouch on the back of the seat and use that for stashing things.

EXACTLY. My gosh. If these people need to count pennies over the span of 100,000 miles, they probably need to re-consider if they should be buying a new vehicle at all.

How about getting a charge-only USB cable. These don't have the data lines, just power.

Par for the course. Ford Legal seems to call a lot of shots, this commercial, and many nanny-state lockouts within their infotainment system that kill enjoyment and convenience. It's so bad that aftermarket hacking tools have been developed to help people defeat the dumbshit. Ford has forgotten...

Interesting, Jared. I appreciate your thoughtful approach. I wonder if Andre might bring his truck to run your loop, and vice-versa, your truck in Colorado on their loop. Might be an interesting addition for the upcoming article.

I think you pretty much got it. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but mostly the same functionality just bigger. With that said, if you use navigation for actually navigating and viewing the road ahead... the difference is HUGE. As good as the 8.4" screen is, the fact that it's permanently in...

The looks alone don't cut the mustard. Monstrosity is a word that comes to mind. The mini bowtie offset to the drivers side is the cherry on this aesthetic disaster.

Awesome. It was an acquisition a few years ago, the app existed and then Fuelly bought them. Hopefully whoever wrote the app saw a nice payday.

I half expect Chevy to come out and say we don't know a good truck when we see one :-)

Sorry Magnaflow, Borla, and Flowmaster fans. Carven nailed it... best sounding mufflers/exhaust on the market.

Chevy said the Q1 beat by Ram was because the new Silverado's weren't fully online. Wagers on what Chevy's excuse will be when Ram beats them in Q2?
