    $1200/mo lease payment for 60 mos

    OTD price? Residual? MF? Miles? Without context, random lease quotes mean nothing. Where's the $1200/60 month quote?

    Anyone getting a 2025 with the I6 Hurricane?

    I test drove a GW with the HO for craps and laughs and didn't notice any appreciable lag. I remember test driving a 2010 BMW 5 series that had so much lag it felt like a full second of a dead pedal every time you tried to go from a stop.

    REV vs Ramcharger - who would buy a REV?

    Electricity is about $0.145/kwh including all taxes and fees. Gasoline is all over the place, but on average around $3.40 for 87.

    Deep dive with Ram engineers on Rev/Ramcharger on March 19th + a Q&A

    Per an email I just got from the Ram Insider+ program about the event they're doing on March 19th at 2:00pm ET about the Rev and Ramcharger: "Join us as we go in-depth with our engineers, designers and other subject matter experts. Not just about features and architecture of these trucks, but...

    REV vs Ramcharger - who would buy a REV?

    I'll be interested to see actual charging performance. If the Rev can charge like the Hyundai/Kia EVs can, that stands to be a much less painful prospect than slower charging vehicles...presuming 350kw+ chargers are, ya know, actually there and actually functional. Still not the truck for me...

    REV vs Ramcharger - who would buy a REV?

    I currently have a Kia Sorento PHEV with a ~32 mile EV range. Looking at my fuel mileage over the past 12 months, I drove roughly 14.5k miles, of which ~9.5k miles were in 100% EV mode, ~2k miles were in partial EV mode (EV propulsion but the ICE on for heat), and the remaining ~3k miles were in...

    Disabling always on power in usb ports

    Yep, from the product description of the one you linked: "PLEASE NOTE: This cable is ONLY for power supply(Not support IOS system), NOT for Data transfer."

    Disabling always on power in usb ports

    USB 2.0 by itself has nothing to do with whether it can handle data. USB cables, whether 2.0 or 3.0+, can either handle power or power + data or data only. There are plenty of USB cables out there that do one but not both.

    2025 Builder is UP!

    I make a lot of money and it's genuinely not an issue, but I tend to lease though sometimes I'll buy the vehicle out at the end of the lease. Years ago, well before I made the kind of money I have now, I had two consecutive Japanese cars that turned into money pits once off warranty, to the...

    Disabling always on power in usb ports

    I just got one of these: Cable Matters 2 Pack USB On Off Switch 1 ft Support Data and Power, Short USB Extension Cable with On Off Switch (USB Power Switch) https://a.co/d/4zFEu9q. My wife's car has USB ports that never turn off, so I initially got it for her wireless AA adapter, then added it...

    2025 Builder is UP!

    Yeah, if I come back to Ram, it'll only be for the Ramcharger. Switched from my Longhorn to a PHEV SUV and PHEV is the only way forward for me right now, regardless of what type of vehicle I end up getting next year.

    2025 Builder is UP!

    Yep. Part of that disparity between our prices is that you have the hemi and ORG, while I didn't. Identically optioned Longhorns, with the exception of the engine: 2019 MSRP: $66,540 2025 MSRP: $85,370 And for craps and laughs, a Tungsten optioned out the way I'd order it: $93,640. There's a...

    2025 Builder is UP!

    I built the exact same build as my '19 Longhorn, with the caveat that it has the HO vs the Pentastar. $19k difference in MSRP between the two otherwise identically optioned trucks...
