    "Shift to P then Desired Gear" Error

    Update #1: I took it to my local dealership and they kept it for a couple of days. I urged them to test drive it and told them that it seems to happen most when I'm at a rolling stop and then resume accelerating (i.e. a red light that just turned green as I approach it). They said they couldn't...

    "Shift to P then Desired Gear" Error

    That's what I figured too, but it's been about 6 months of this happening pretty frequently.

    "Shift to P then Desired Gear" Error

    Hey everyone. I have a 2019 Ram four-door with approx. 44k miles. I had it for about 6 months when I got this alert for the first time. I was coming to a stop light, and the truck dings at me, gives me the error code "Shift to P then Desired Gear" and shifts itself into neutral. Once I come to...

    Center console or bench seat

    I went back and forth on this. I like the bench for spacial reasons, but the console has sooooo much space. But, if I'm being honest, I went with the console for the sole reason of having my phone plugged in to USB-C without running it across from the front to the fold down seat. Guess I'm just...

    Sales Tricks while you're sitting at the desk...

    I tried hard to work do my work in advance with the internet sales team at a lot of dealerships... hoping to make my deal over e-mail/phone and then come in and finalize. But in the end, I got the best deal from working with a Salesman face to face. A lot of the internet guys I worked with were...

    Any regrets not getting 12" screen?

    I fought myself long and hard saying I "needed" a 12" screen. Only thing was I wanted a Big Horn, which makes it a hard to find item (Most 12" are in Laramies and up). Ultimately settled for a 8.4" screen and instead got some nice upgrades I wasnt originally looking for (LED Light Package, Blind...

    Can’t believe this gas hog

    These numbers are right on par with mine. Road trips I'm getting around 18, but my daily drive I'm hovering around the 14 mpg mark.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    That's a hard one. One one hand, yes the deals could (and probably will) come back sometime between now and when the 20's come in. But on the other, these beauties are being sold quickly. So the longer you wait, the less options you have. I guess it ultimately boils down to what you want. If...

    My Experience With iOS 13 Beta's Carplay

    Do you have any issues getting CarPlay to load up when you first plug it in? I normally have to plug mine in twice before it sticks.

    My Experience With iOS 13 Beta's Carplay

    Started using iOS 13 Beta about a week before I bought my Ram. While it's extremely buggy, that is expected. It is a beta after all. But, as the majority of you are still on iOS 12, I thought I'd share my initial thoughts on how the new changes work in our Rams. 1. The main menu is great for...

    CarPlay shuts down

    I have a "similar" issue with this when I first get into my truck and plug my iPhone in. When I get in and plug my phone in, it shows that carplay is available on the screen. When I push the Carplay button it goes to a screen that says "Carplay Is Loading, Please Wait", but then it just kicks...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    I've been communicating with Lindsay a bit. Haven't paid a visit as they are 3 hours away from me, but so far they've been very respectful, kind, and eager to work with me. Planning to go tomorrow. I'm waiting on a phone call to see what they can find me in a Big Horn crew cab with 12" screen...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    I went to Darcars back in 2015 when I was truck shopping- holy moly I've never seen a more a$$ backward operation. They were rude, pushy, and tried to push pricing that was higher than the sticker on the truck (I mean c'mon, really?). When I told them I'd never purchase there they completely...

    Bakflip MX4 vs Revolver X4 - Ramboxes

    Trust me, I love Retrax. and in most cases they get good reviews.... but not with Rambox. Leaking, gaps, and (to me) worst of all theres a "cracking noise" from the Ram Box rubbing upon opening. And it limits the door from opening completely. There's a fix but it involves cutting away some of...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    All- I’m working on a deal currently for a Patriot Blue Big Horn. MSRP is $53,440 but they offered it at $40,080 (from my math 25% off) Their “VIP” price, listed on their website (didn’t show up until after I submitted my contact info) is $35,890. When I asked the Sales Manager (who told me...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Thanks for the info! I already have arrangements ready with my local credit union, so I'll compare apples to apples when I get to the dealership should I decide to move forward.
