    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I am fairly certain this is only on the models with the reclining rear seats. My Laramie has this and I store my jumper cables back there.

    Wireless CarPlay Adapter Question

    Well, I had my AAWireless working perfectly for about a week. Then I installed the latest firmware yesterday and now it doesn't work worth $#!?. Does anyone know how to revert back to a previous firmware. With the latest one it will only connect half the time, but even when it does it "loses the...

    AAWireless Review

    Well, I had mine working well for about a week. Then I installed the latest firmware and now it doesn't work worth $#!?. Does anyone know how to revert back to a previous firmware. With the latest one it will only connect half the time, but even when it does it "loses the connection" a few...

    Wireless CarPlay Adapter Question

    Sure, here you go. There really isn't much to see though. All of the cables and the AAWireless adapter are hidden behind the radio. The cable for the mount goes behind the radio and is plugged in to the outlet above the radio. The adapter is plugged into one of the USB ports below the radio...

    Wireless CarPlay Adapter Question

    I use the Course Motorsports MagSafe phone mount. I purchased magsafe rings from Amazon and glued one to the back of my phone case so I have wireless charging now. Works great. If you were to go this route, just know that it will work best with a thin phone case, not only does it not charge as...

    Billet Silver Limited - Chrome Bumper or Painted

    I actually am not a big fan of the paint matched bumpers. IMO it cheapens the look of the truck. Just looks like cheap plastic parts to me. I think paint matched is a sportier look and chromed is a more Luxury look. Just my opinion (which has changed over the years).

    Leveling kits

    I tow my TT fairly often and had the same concerns about excess squat when loaded. That is why I did a 3" front/2" rear level. This left me with ~1" of rake. I also added the Airlift 1000HD helper bags to remove more squat when towing. This setup has worked really well for me so far, and the...

    Tailgate ajar light

    If it is listed on your build sheet, I would bet you have the switch. My '21 Laramie was the same, but was able to enable with AlfoOBD.

    "GPS signal lost"

    My 12" w/NAV has been doing the same for the last week whether my phone is connected or not.

    3 inch leveling kit

    I agree with @397STROKER on this one. I have the same leveling kit on my 2021 Laramie. I originally did not install the UCA's but the shop was not able to get the alignment done properly because of the terrible angles. A couple weeks later, I installed the RC 3-3.5" UCA's and had the alignment...

    Wireless CarPlay Adapter Question

    Looks like the app has seen some updates since I last used it. It looked completely different. I re-enabled the start/stop feature and selected UConnect and it seems to be working so far. The only annoying thing now is that it will not automatically connect to AA, instead I have to "allow" the...

    Wireless CarPlay Adapter Question

    Thanks, I will have to try again. I have the Samsung S21 Ultra 5G, but haven't been able to get it working. Maybe they have updated things since I last tried.

    Wireless CarPlay Adapter Question

    Do you mind posting what settings you have that got it to work?

    Wireless CarPlay Adapter Question

    I do not have an answer for you, however everything I have seen about the MA1 states that it does not have the issue. AAWireless is supposed to have a feature that stops the device from connecting after the UConnect system turns off (start/stop), but it has never worked for me.

    Wireless CarPlay Adapter Question

    The USB ports DO eventually shut off, IME. It seems to vary a bit, but it is ~1hr. Mine seems to be a bit longer, but they do eventually turn off. I simply plug my adapter in ONLY when I will be using it, which only happens on longer trips, or if I want to use my phones GPS navigation (I prefer...

    Pedal commander or not. ????

    I do not have a Pedal Commander, but a JMS PedalMAX Terrain. I chose the PedalMAX, because it is a simple knob, can be set and then removed, and is capable of being set anywhere from 50% below stock to 100% over stock. I didn't like the big control box of the Pedal Commander or the more...

    Tailgate ajar light

    My 2021 Laramie did not have it and I lost ~$2000 of ammo because of the tailgate not getting latched completely. I enabled it using AlfaOBD after that incident. That will NOT happen to me again. My understanding is that RAM only activates it with certain options (mostly having nothing to do...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I passed the 20k mark in just under 1yr of ownership, got the oil chaged (every 5k), and tires rotated (also every 5k).
