    Does anyone actually pay for UConnect?

    I like having the remote start (via phone app) in the winter. Yes the key fob works if you are close to the truck, and can see if it actually worked. The app is nice because of the validation that the truck actually started. My 1 year trial just ended, however I was not pleased about...

    MFT issue...

    Mine does this also, truck is a year old now. I've just learned to shut the gate firmly.

    Throttle controllers...

    yeap, I have one. You can't make changes while moving. You have to come to a stop.

    New 12" Uconnect Software Version 19.33.11? New Update 19.43.1a

    Awesome, thanks. So which model do I want? There are a bunch on Amz. *edit- looks to be all the same model, just which cars the unit is "certified" to work on.

    New 12" Uconnect Software Version 19.33.11? New Update 19.43.1a

    Interesting. I've not heard of this CarPlay2Air device before now. I guess I've been living under a Covid rock or something. Question- quick interwebs search finds LOTS and LOTS of terrible reviews. Are you guys 100% pleased with this device? Any short comings when using it in the Ram? thanks!

    Throttle controllers...

    Update to the comments above- the pedal monster reverse safety feature DOES NOT work with my 2020. It just says feature disabled. When you run thorugh the setup procedure there is no selection for the 2019-20 Ram 1500. Only the HDs. Bummer. I have mine set pretty mild, only #3 or #4 on the...

    Throttle controllers...

    It does make the truck feel more responsive in most situations, just not right off the line. I'm not an expert, but I seriously doubt that is correct above (no offense). The computer/ECU is what controls the throttle body, not the pedal itself. The pedal assembly is just a rheostat resistance...

    Throttle controllers...

    Update on the pedal monster: One of the behaviors of the "dead pedal or sponge pedal" is when you initially press the gas to get moving from a stop. There is a delay before the engine responds to the throttle....prob a 1/2 second or so. That is what I would like these throttle...

    Throttle controllers...

    No, just decided I didn't want any reliability or safety issues and returned it.

    Installed the Banks Pedal Monster. Seems to work well. I had a Sprint Booster in the past, so it works the same as far as increased pedal response. I do like the bluetooth interface/app rather than the wired fob the SB had. The fail-safe feature is the main reason I opted for this one.

    I just ordered a Banks Pedal Monster. I'll report my opinion once installed.

    Anyone wish they had NOT ordered Ramboxes?

    agree with all above!
