    Grippy cup holders making me spill my ice cream EVERYWHERE! (there is a question here too)

    I missed the part where he was actually eating in the truck. Or are you saying never put a food or beverage product in your truck regardless of how it’s packaged?

    110 Outlet

    So are you saying you plug the UPS into the 110 (allowing it to maintain a charge) then plug the device needing the 400w draw into the UPS thus letting the UPS take on the initial surge?

    Panoramic Sunroof Tilt

    Even more disappointing is you can’t adjust the shade to block the heat of the sun when vented. In my other vehicles, you can open the roof to vent and close the shade so that it is open only a couple inches. This allows the car to vent some heat while reducing the sun’s radiant heat while parked.

    Impressive Gas Mileage

    That’s some good mileage...I’m at 22.7 +/- with the V8 E torque and 10,500 miles. But that’s based on around 70% highway.

    Wireless CarPlay Dongle is Garbage

    I’ve been using the Carlinkit 2 for about 6 months with no connection problem. Only complaint is that should I have an app containing media open on the phone Carplay defaults to Carplay audio instead of the Ram’s previous media setting.

    Sunroof tint?

    Try to set the pano to tilt. Then close the shade so that it is only open 2 or 3 inches. As soon as you adjust the shade, the pano closes.

    Sunroof tint?

    Yep. That’s what I dislike. Defeats the reason for tilt IMO. Tilt to vent but more heat comes in since the shade can‘t be opened only a couple inches.

    Sunroof tint?

    I’m actually wanting to open the shade 2-3 inches with the pano tilted open. Particularly when parked. That way heat can vent without direct sunlight continuing to add more heat than if the shade were closed. Something I’ve done for 30+ years in every other vehicle I’ve owned. I’ve also found...

    Sunroof tint?

    I’m considering tinting the pano so I can tilt-open the roof to vent heat as the brain trust at Ram force the shade to fully open when set to tilt. Every other vehicle I’ve owned that had a sun roof allowed the shade to be adjusted when panel set to tilt open.

    Car Play

    Appreciate the tip. I often have my player up in background. My not be actively using it, but because it’s not closed, that may be why...

    Car Play

    I use the the carplay2air dongle with great success. However, I do wish it wouldn‘t switch from the previous music (HD radio or XM) to CarPlay music player each time you restart. There may be a setting, but I haven’t bothered to look into it...

    Folding mirrors

    I was hearing that “thump” too. But one time I had the window down, folded the mirror, and heard the same noise.

    Radio repeats when I tune to 98.1

    Mine frequently does that on the pandora stations through XM. And that’s if the station even loads. 7 out of 10 times I get messages like ’weak signal’ And the station doesn’t even play. Even on clear sunny days.

    Shouldn't I have a cargo camera?

    Would you happen to know if it is plug and play in order to get image to show on screen? Or do you need to program it in?

    Should I add this upgrade

    From what I’ve gathered from these forums, the 8.4 has greater options with regard to apps and vehicle maintenance reporting.

    Retrax PowerTraxPro MX interfers with Rambox

    Hi bjevers, when you say they are shipping out the new rails, do you mean new rubber gaskets, or new metal rails?

    I need to vent! Drunk driver hit my Parked 2021 Ram 1500 🤬

    I used an independent appraiser for an Infinity. It was about 10 years old but had so few miles and was in such good condition, insurance paid the diminished value claim. Something around $1,200.
