No, that's not the right screen for it - IIRC, it's under Safety or something on the 12" screen. I'll try to check at lunch time ... pretty sure I disabled it on my truck. -John

Contact your dealer and ask them to ask RAM to print you out a new one. It won't have the same "printed on" date, but should be identical otherwise. For some reason my truck came with 2 window stickers... and I have them both. I even got to peel them off their backing paper (I had always...

Only if they're smart. The Ford owners have been griping since 2015 that ACC wasn't available on their XLT trim level trucks (similar to Big Horn), but a Toyota Corolla could get it. -John

Yep - I recently found the window stickers to my previous two trucks, and I bet if I dig further, I'll find more stuff from previous vehicles. I'm pretty sure I have the digital watch Ford sent me when I bought a new 2000 Focus ZX3. -John

I'm miffed - someone at the dealership took the tag off my leather seats and discarded it :( I keep all the tags, window stickers, and other things that come with a new vehicle. -John

That's bonkers! I couldn't believe it when I was truck shopping a few months ago. Not only are GM trucks ugly, but their mother dresses them funny! What really surprised me was that Ford had it in 2015 and it took 4 years before any other truck makers joined them in offering ACC. Yup, I...

Yes yes, let the hate flow through you! No, just kidding - GM really does do a lot of commercials that are hit pieces on their competitors, when in reality they're way behind the times in most areas, and a few years later they end up copying what they "hated" before - ahem, aluminum panels...

My Kawasaki Vaquero has cruise control but no rev-matching aids. I added GPS to it (hard-wired). So I'm not 100% doing the work. :D Amen to that! When I bought my 2015 F-150, ACC was one of the things I was most interested in trying out. The dealer sent us home with it overnight so we...

A few years I would've agreed with you. With the increase in traffic in my area, and a new commute, I'll take the truck doing the lion's share of my commuting. ACC has been a stress reliever. On the weekends, and some mornings when traffic is light, I'll take over and do all the driving...

Yeah, I have owned 7 or 8 Ford products in the last 15 years, and on the first several, I didn't get any recalls. On my 2011 and 2015 F-150s, there were numerous recalls and TSBs needed to fix their poor quality. My RAM so far has 1 recall (airbags) and while the A/C isn't ice cold, it will...

Absolutely right, on all accounts! I love me some tech toys - they're great when they work. As I mentioned before, put some miles on the truck and try it out a few times in practice situations, see if it gets better. Also, get off my lawn! :D -John

For many years, that's exactly what the manufacturers did - remove spares, liners, bumpers, anything to get the magical numbers to work. Real world trucks weren't so capable. -John

Here we go again! I agree with you - one should be able to parallel park themselves. That said, I find it to be a nice feature, and use it almost daily. It helps make sure no loud, expensive noises happen, and I'm ok with that. -John

I used PA to park perpendicularly one day ... it did a 5-point turn to get into the spot. I could've done it faster myself. It's quite handy for parallel parking, though. Also, it has yet to try hitting something. My 2015 F-150 before this had PA, and it ran over the rounded curb in front of...

The Limited trucks around here (MD/DC/NVA) have been mostly odd ducks, at least as far as I'm concerned. I was looking for a specific set of options, and the only one I found within 150 miles was the truck I bought... hence why I didn't spend any time thinking about it - I just got it. -John

Pennsylvania does it too - I passed a lollygagger who was doing 5 under in the left lane, and then a statey comes up on our tail... and proceeds to pull over the lollygagger. FWIW, I was doing less than 10 over the posted speed limit. -John

Darcars is horrible. I will never give them a single cent of my money. Their reputation is the worst in the area, by a large margin. I have a few friends and acquaintances that have been there, and I am pretty sure all but one had a horrible experience. They ripped me off on a used car...

I went by my selling dealer (Criswell Gaithersburg) yesterday and mentioned the steals going on (the 15%) and the sales manager said it was only on certain trucks, that out of the ~100 they had, only ~30 qualified. Whatever. Regarding the quote above, I was shopping F-150s in 2011 and had one...

Thanks! I have downloaded the version you linked to, and noticed that its copyright is 2018, whereas the one I had was copyright 2019, but seems to have less information (like the tailgate weight limit in motion)? Odd. -John

Interesting. That page does not exist in my owner's manual, at least the one I downloaded for my 2019. -John
