. When trying to clear these random electronic issues, you have to leave the battery disconnected for at least two hours. I myself leave it disconnected overnight. . In addition, although sometimes the random glitch is cleared upon restart of the vehicle after battery is reconnected after...

. I'm in the same boat you are, my 2020 half-ton has 5' 7" bed. . I wish Ram had come up with the idea Ford recently patented: . Ford Patents Built-In Pickup Bed Rack With Stowaway Rails and It Sure Seems Handy .

. 1) How long did you leave the battery cable disconnected? . 2) What is the battery voltage? .

. When will it be viewable on your website, with specifications like material, weight, etc.? .

Looks nice. How easy is it to remove the rack system if need to do that temporarily?

. Not "overthinking it" at all. Just pointing out the existence of an artifact of vehicles with regenerative braking that no one else I know of had pointed out before. . It IS worth knowing about and being prepared for by drivers who have counted on engine braking when descending grades for...

. As I said ,probably not an issue for most EV towing situations, because of the large batteries, and as you point out, not all that much energy regained going downhill, but it can and does happen under certain situations, so EV drivers just need to be aware of it so they don't freak if/when it...

. I couldn't live without my Ram Boxes, or my MFT (multi-function tailgate). . I do wish Ram offered Ram Boxes on the DT trucks with 6'4" bed as well as the 5'7" bed. .

That's a great truck, good on you for keeping it maintained and keeping it in the family.

. RE: djgiron: "The real benefit is coming down the other side where you can use the weight to recharge the battery for the next pass!" . That's true, and having the ability to use "regenerative braking" (really, it's regenerative coasting) is nice in that it saves the brakes while recharging...

Norskie Rider said: "What drew me to the RAMs are two things: - Coilover rear suspension, supposedly this is the best riding truck on the market. Since it will be my daily at least half the year and I hate how traditional trucks ride, this is a big plus." . FWIW, by far the best riding Ram is...

. I was able to find the "maxspeed" overlay in Open Street Browser, which indicates that the Davis Dam test course along route 68 from Laughlin, Nevada area to Union Pass in Arizona is 65 MPH. I've never been there so I can't vouch for the accuracy of that OpenStreetMaps overlay. I believe those...

(StuartV): "...can it pull it when the battery is at minimum SOC at the start, with max load (14K #), and maintain the speed limit (up that whole grade they talk about)?" . What is your definition of "speed limit"? Per J2807, it can't fall below 40 MPH at any time, so per J2807, 40 MPH would be...

I would say call Banks. They know what they're doing, and they stand behind their products.

. Everything is a tradeoff...ICE vehicles have certain advantages over EVs, EVs have advantages over ICE, each type of hybrid has advantages and disadvantages compared to ICE and EV...we all just pay our money and make our choice. . If I can afford it, in a year or two I'll be happy to trade my...
