i’m surprised this thread has gone so long. my understanding of the consensus is: 3.92: tow often, want fast off-the-line numbers, or are planning to get big tires 3.21: lots of highway driving, or everyone else honestly some of the more recent posts are really just people trying to justify...

FWIW they're the top rated All-Terrain Truck Tire on Consumer Reports, with the Michelin LTX A/T2 a close second.

Audi has a cool video showing what adaptive headlights can do: In short, they use similar technology found in a home theater projector. Using sensors, adaptive headlights can use high beams all the time, but selectively block parts of the beam to prevent other drivers from being blinded by...

Just an FYI I think you selected "P Metric" tires in the calculator when, based on your door sticker, you should have selected regular "Metric" size. I reran the calculation, it's saying 37psi for the new tires: From tiresize.com:

First off, the 40psi in your calculator seems incorrect. Are you sure your door jam sticker doesn't indicate around 35psi for the tires? The aftermarket sway bar, LT tires, and increased tire pressure have effectively stiffened your suspension. This would cause the "slipperyness" on bumps you...

Per Tire Rack, the Dueler H/L Alenza, rated 113T & 600AA, are the 20" OEM road tires. When bought retail, the warranty is 5 Year / 65,000 miles...

Why read and understand when you can just parrot an irrelevant soundbite? From the article:

There was a similar issue with my G8. I believe the driver's seat in that car did not move as far back because of the steering wheel airbag. The thought was that the airbag became ineffective at a certain distance, so the seat was limited in travel. On the G8 some people were able to remove...

You hit the nail on the head. The best antenna for receiving FM radio signals is what's called a "quarter wave monopole antenna," about 2.5' to 3' in length. Using some electronics, you can physically shrink an antenna while keeping it at the same "electrical length." The tradeoff is range...

I would have gotten a turbo or hybrid I6 if it was available. I remember hearing rumors of an FCA I6 for a few years now, but it seems the project has fizzled out under Stellantis. It would be cool if they do decide to make it. BTW, Those talking about how the electric grid isn't ready for...

I've got an HK system in my Limited. Disconnecting the sub did wonders. My music is mostly high quality streaming via Spotify. I wish I could put some sort of passive equalizer just on the sub. Keep it wired up, but with an independent volume control, just for the subwoofer. Anyone know if...

Sounds like a scam message. I haven't heard anything. If you're in the US, you can check NHTSA.gov to see if there are any open recalls for your vehicle: https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls

Look for the "Engine Power Off Delay" setting under the "Key Off Options/Engine Off Options" menu. https://msmownerassets.z13.web.core.windows.net/assets/publications/en-us/Ram/2021/1500_DT/P117762_21_DT_OM_EN_USC_t_DIGITAL.pdf

It’s not a virus or anything like that. IIRC, the .jar files are over the air updates for Uconnect via the Sirius system. No need for alarm- this issue has been covered previously in other threads.

It's a wonder some people's arms stay attached with the size of the chips on their shoulders :rolleyes:

Do the connectors come with pins? Is a special tool required for crimping those pins on to the wires?

Awesome, great job @Upandaway420! This is something I"m excited to try out myself at some point. With this being a community port, do we know what bugs or potential bugs or other issues may be present compared to the officially supported version? I'll note that Consumer Reports rated the...
