Why the he!! would FCA deny a claim on an obvious structural defect? Not very confidence inspiring...

I ordered one the end of July - order got cancelled - on backorder status through September. ETA 9/5 from an email exchange with the dealer I ordered it from. Whatever the allocation on these is - they are sure to go quick... Rick

Really weird and inconsistent results. I've also had the suspension fob button RAISE the suspension with the truck off and sitting in entry/exit. Really weird. I've just gotten in the habit of hitting the button on the console as I'm getting close to my destination, so I'll be in entry/exit...

I cancelled mine less than a month after picking up my truck, because it was WORTHLESS. More than once - I hit the "emergency button" (by accident, reaching for the interior lighting switch) - it would ring and ring - no one would pick up (good thing there wasn't an actual EMERGENCY), and you...

Lane Keeper/Assist is USELESS. In my previous '16 Honda Pilot it was almost auto-pilot. With the advances in technology since '16, all the cameras and a truck that can PARALLEL PARK ITSELF - you would think it could STAY IN A LANE. Yeah - I know - don't be distracted, pay attention to the...

WIth FOB - you can leave engine running and either lock with fob, or with button on door handle. Or shutdown and restart with remote start (which locks the doors and starts). Shutdown/remote-start is probably the SAFER of the two options - as the truck can't be "fully started" and driven off...

I can see how the lengthy sigs clutter up reading panes of the board. I have a (somewhat) lengthy one myself. Adding year/model under the avatar frame - and leaving the "link to extended sig" so someone can "dig deeper" would be a valid compromise. Also keeping in mind - aside from the...

I do some weird (and radical) changes. This time - not so radical. Went from a '16 Honda Pilot - to a '19 RAM Limited. And honestly - if they'd had at least done some "mid-generation updates" to the Pilot, I would have bought another one - but I wasn't paying $45K for "new car small". I was...

As a "postscript" (since this thread got resurrected). I did end up cutting the rails for the bed divider down (about 16"). I really only needed it to be mobile for the rear 2/3's of the bed - and it does what I need it to do. Because the original design was meant to run the entire length...

I got a (second) call from my dealer about recalls. They had called me awhile ago about both the wiper recall and the Uconnect recall (some backup camera screwup). This weeks call, they told me they were only showing the wiper recall. Asked them if the Uconnect recall was done via OTA push...

I can't dispute the experience of off-roaders - because I don't offroad myself (never have - unless you count dirt bikes in my younger days). I got "stuck" going up a gravel driveway at a friends mountainside home in NC. Her BF backed down the hill with a 4X (and offroad tires), threw a rope...

MFT ones mount to the left of the trailer hitch. The corner ones are useless if you have "the barn doors open". Hopefully, it deploys far enough to the left, to still utilize the large weathertech hitch mounted step. Like having 2 steps into the bed (for us severely altitude deprived folks)...

I think most folks would use a tow rope hooked to BOTH HOOKS - and attached to the hitch (or rear tow hooks if available) of the tow vehicle. Depends on what kind of mess you're getting dragged out of really. And if you're "assisting" (ie: on the gas) the person who's towing, then they're...

Out of INSANE CURIOSITY... Why would cargo/3rd brake LED's, interfere with keyfob being detected? I get this sometimes - but my fob is in a pocket with a large knife and other metal objects - when I jiggle it clear (still in the pocket), it starts. Weirdness... Not sure if I went DD for...

https://accessories.314allstar.com/product/ram-1500-tow-hooks-black/ "Tow Hooks are rated with a towing capacity up to 5,500 pounds or 1.5 times the vehicles GVWR (depending on vehicle). These tow hooks securely mount to the frame and are fully tested for durability and load capacity."

AMP Research is probably the OEM for MOPAR. I ordered from Athens (GA) Ram ($310 + free shipping) yesterday - got a confirmation email. When I replied enquiring lead time, was told they had to cancel my order - backordered through 9/1. Get the feeling we are NEVER GOING TO SEE THESE. An "AB...

Got "pulled" up a hill my truck couldn't make (2WD/Street Tires). I DID assist, so the hooks didn't take the full load - but they worked... Rick

Or - get a NEW COMPUTER. I think Diablo quoted me right around $1K for a computer and tuner (with canned tunes). Swap in new (unlocked) computer - flash in a tune - viola. Gotta bring the truck in for service - swap computers to factory (untouched) computer. I was thinking of doing this -...

Update: started riding the bike again - yeah, I'll keep it. Too much fun, too much cool to part with. Sold my 16' Slingshot trailer, and bought a 20' Slingshot trailer with a chock/tie-downs for the bike. Used the new trailer to drag the slingshot up to Greeneville SC for some upgrades -...

Lane Keeper/Assist that ACTUALLY WORKS! I mean, c'mon - REALLY? 4 cameras, 30 sensors and a truck that can PARALLEL PARK ITSELF - but the friggin LANE KEEPER can't keep the truck in a lane? My '16 Honda Pilot - almost was "AutoPilot" (get it - PILOT - AUTOPILOT - I KILL ME!). This thing...
