Me too. It's not documented anywhere that I could find so sussing it out is a matter of time-consuming trial and error. I was far more interested in all my music being available than working out the specific limit. I also had a mix of file types and wasn't sure which ones the system supported...

Don't do this! The UConnect system has a limit to the number of folders it can read. It's easy to exceed the limit with an ARTIST/ALBUM/TRACK structure. Even ARTIST/ALBUM-TRACK didn't work for me. The drive will work but you won't be able to see/play all of the tracks. From what I've read on the...

$400 for the whole set? Great price! I'm interested, though I'm in IA so shipping would be necessary. I'm assuming the TPMS sensors have been removed. It looks like there's a bit of scuffing on the pictured wheel; can you post pics of the others?

You aren't missing anything. I can set and manage favorites (8.4 NAV) but the notification is basically "one of your favorites is on air now" without any indication of which artist/song and no shortcut for switching channels. You have to go through the menus to get to favorites, pull up the list...

There should be options to browse by artist, album, or song. If you pick songs (i.e. everything) there should be a bit of text that says something like "track 1 of 1234."

And it sees all 8000 files? Interesting; must be a difference between the 12 and the 8.4 NAV.

Well, sometimes... The UConnect software has an undocumented limit on the number of folders it supports. I'm not sure what that limit is but it's pretty low. If you organize your music as <artist>/<album>/<track> you'll have problems with missing songs. I had better luck with <artist>/<album> -...

In my experience if I shut the door and press the button immediately the truck doesn't lock. (There's a clicking sound and the lights flash, I think, but the button stays up and the truck remains unlocked.) If I wait for about a second before pressing the button it locks. My interpretation is...

What are you trying to accomplish? If you're trying to avoid using the truck's DAC the aux input is the only way I know of because it's the only analog input I'm aware of. I doubt there are any unused ones hiding behind the head unit. Depending on the player you could connect it via USB — that...

It doesn't take much to spin the tires with the 3.92 rear end. Mine tend to slip a bit (triggering the ASD) when starting from a stop on wet roads, particularly shortly after it starts raining; i.e. before it's rained long/hard enough to wash the dirt, oil, etc. off the road. I suspect that I...

One shows an instantaneous MPG readout; the other doesn't.

That's pretty common. Cost of theft <<< cost of medical treatment/lawsuit. That's not just in case the employee gets injured, either; they could be held liable if the employee beat the hell out of the thief. The employees aren't trained for that, it's not in their job duties, and $10/hr (or...

You'd think that themes would depend on which which infotainment system you have but they seem to depend on trim level instead: Laramie or higher. As far as I know that's not actually documented anywhere, though.

...which isn't available on the Big Horn, unfortunately.

The deal is nothing special; you should definitely be able to do better. Perhaps more importantly a $68k MSRP is really high for a Laramie. You're better off starting out with a Limited (or maybe Longhorn) instead of optioning up a Laramie to match one.

Around town: Driver's window all the way down, pano sunroof fully open. Sometimes I fully open the front passenger window as well. On the highway: Side windows closed, pano sunroof open to first stop, rear window fully open. You get nice air movement with no buffeting and without getting blasted.

The infotainment system supports FLAC if you want lossless audio. I also supports AAC, WAV (I think), and maybe a few other file types. (Pedantry: CD tracks aren't really files, they're PCM-encoded audio data streams. Macs do show them as AIFF files, though.)

At least one user had a wrap applied to it. [link]

It's not clear to me whether braking was applied by the FCWS (forward collision warning system) or the ACC (adaptive cruise control) — either can brake automatically. Did the truck flash !BRAKE! on the instrument cluster and sound an alarm or just slow down? The former would be the FCWS, the...

Heh, if I stopped when the sensor panicked I'd still have my rear bumper hanging out of the garage. It didn't take long for me to get tired of the guesswork of "red alert + a few more inches." The squishy noodle works great for front to back but after a couple of instances where I got out of the...
