    Power Side Step Ripped off

    Curious how the boards are getting caught in the car wash and what, design wise, might be done to prevent them getting torn off if one accidentally forgets. Not that I am going to try and test it myself :) Yeah, I know: retract them. I have gone through a few times with the boards out but...

    Looking for a good Tonneau cover

    I wanted something that wasn't black (heat rejection, potentially paint matched), easy to remove and store by myself in the truck, and secure (hard locking, no cord to coat hanger open, and cut proof), and was a no drill installation, that I could install by myself. I went with a Peragon...

    SyncUP Drive

    Mine is the 12 and I've been using the latest (iOS) Uconnect and Guardian apps without a problem. The prior Uconnect app was not reliable for remote services, and a lot of people reported issues. I have a couple of different OBD dongles here I could test (one dealer tracker, the others [not...

    SyncUP Drive

    Where did you hear this? I have a GPS gizmo plugged in to my OBD port and successfully use Uconnect remote services all the time.

    Harman Kardon too much bass

    This is exactly what I had to do to get the bass under control.

    Spare tire WARNING

    Thanks for the info on this site. Can't remember everything in the manual but I can remember this!

    Is your Dealership tracking your truck without your knowledge?

    I've never seen this coming from Uconnect/Mopar. Can you share a screen shot of what the report looks like? Mine says it's not capable.

    Updates to vehicle settings I’d like to see

    I don't think it does this, but having an auto-lock option - if you walk away with the key the truck will lock itself up. My other car does this and has trained my behavior.. I embarrassingly often forget to push the lock button or the fob.

    Uconnect remote app commands not working after a while

    The app was updated on the iTunes store about 3 days ago for me. The update now works and I get acknowledgement message back from Sirius Guardian when it does.

    Bedrug XLT

    Yes, I really like mine. Very quick/easy to install and a blessing for the knees.

    What the heck is this?!?!

    These things must be everywhere. Reading someone else's RAM-related post: https://www.ramforum.com/posts/1888120/ Removed faulty GPS Kahu unit installed by the dealer but I did not activate. Was causing battery draw. Kahu is another flavor of GPS tracker providers. Most bizarre, but...

    Should RAM ditch the knob shifter ?

    Knob is the way to go and fits right in to the design theme.

    2020 Chevrolet heavy duty pictures just released!!!

    Hmm. A unibrow. Not attractive.

    Rivian electric truck

    I wish them the best. Hopefully they'll be able to deliver on, or ahead of time and avoid the distraction of being acquired by a monster that doesn't understand what they are trying to deliver. My vehicles couldn't be farther apart on the spectrum and I think there is room for innovation...

    Uconnect remote app commands not working after a while

    I am finding that the Uconnect iPhone app does not work (and did at one time), but the Sirius Guardian app and the website does work for me.

    One option you wish you had

    I'd have gone for Ramboxes if there was an identical truck on the lot with them when I was buying. But they were unobtainium on in-stock inventory for 100s of miles.

    Uconnect remote app commands not working after a while

    I too cannot seem to get the uconnect iPhone app to now complete a remote start successfully (after working well for weeks). The mopar.com site via browser does seem to be able to correctly issue a remote start.

    Power Side Step Ripped off

    I searched the pdf Ram manuals and it looks like that warning didn't make it to the factory manuals that I could see. I'll keep mine stowed from now on.

    Power Side Step Ripped off

    Yikes - I do the same in my local car wash and have not had a problem so far. I'll now stop - did not read that in the manual but it must be there.

    What the heck is this?!?!

    If you spend the time to do a bit of googling and research, you find the 2017+ plethora of OBD-connected passive trackers put on by the dealers is just the another dealer profit center like window tint, VIN etching, paint protection, etc. But a little creepier since there is always a data push...
