    Hemi Update - Ordering Open

    That's a fact, Jack! lol!! :D I don't know about you, but there are (obviously) plenty of people here on this forum, and in life, that are SO keen to hear what sounds good to them that they choose to make it even louder, so they can hear it better and it sounds better to them. To me, people...

    Will the V6 run all the time?

    My guess is that if you are towing heavy, in real mountains, it very well could run all or at least most of the time. Especially if you have already run the batteries down to 50% or less or something like that. Aside from a worst-case scenario like that, it definitely SHOULD not run all the...

    key fob not needed, anyone can steal your truck!

    Or, the fob at home was close enough to let him start it, and then he never turned it off. And maybe hit Ok on the steering wheel to dismiss the "fob not present" message maybe without even noticing it. Maybe. Until OP gives more info, it's just another Internet fable.

    Hemi Update - Ordering Open

    I paid my dues with about 13 years of Hemi ownership. By modern standards, it is a gutless dog. All bark. No bite. Okay top end power, but total weaksauce in the midrange. All the ones I owned had a 3.92 rear end and still had to downshift gears (often, more than one) just to hold speed up even...

    Some want bark. Some want bite. I'll take Silent But Deadly over Not-fast But Furious.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I know my tires don't stick as well when they're not at the temp they were designed for. And the oil in my engine is not the same viscosity when it's at the temp it was intended to operate at versus a much lower temperature. Do you think the friction plates (or whatever they're called) in a...

    2025 Ram 1500 Current Owners - Discussion, Feedback, and Problems

    I have not, really. But, was actually looking at the Uconnect nav over the weekend and I think I want to give it a real try. It looked like it might actually be really nice. It looked like it might have some features that could be really handy. I need to play with it some. But, an example of...

    2025 Ram 1500 Current Owners - Discussion, Feedback, and Problems

    I used to use Waze exclusively. Then something changed and it started giving me routes that were just ... BAD. After a week or two of that I changed back to Google Maps. But now, very recently, it seems like Google may be starting to do some of that, too. I can't help wondering if it's...

    2025 Ram 1500 Current Owners - Discussion, Feedback, and Problems

    My brother was just telling me that in the last few months Apple Maps has seemed to do a better job for him than Google Maps. I just don't want to switch because of all the saved places I have in Google Maps. But, if I do try Apple Maps, I still don't see turning the HUD back on... :D

    2025 Ram 1500 Current Owners - Discussion, Feedback, and Problems

    Thanks! Now that y'all say that I think I remember reading that before. I always use Google Maps, so I have never actually seen it (turns in the IPC) myself.

    CarPlay? Displays on what? What is IPC?

    2025 Ram 1500 Current Owners - Discussion, Feedback, and Problems

    Yeah, the current speed limit shows right at the top of my instrument cluster, too. So, I barely have to look down any further than the HUD to see it there. I use CarPlay for nav, so it doesn't display in the HUD.

    To me, the HUD is the same as the passenger auxiliary display screen - a completely useless gimmick.
