Thanks for that. After poking around a bit on YouTube, I came back to edit my post. The video I watched mentioned "100K". Is it 1K, or 100K? (My anti-theft alarm doesn't care that it's not there at all.) Your thoughts?

It occurs to me that the hood switch may not actually be "required". It's supposed to be a requirement for the anti-theft alarm, also, to protect the underhood area/engine compartment. BUT... the anti-theft alarm works just fine without it. The reason for the requirement for the remote start is...

This is what I bought. Work perfectly. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08RCRRC92 The description says for push button start, but that's a little bit ambiguous. My truck is pushbutton, but is not equipped with remote start. My covers are exactly as pictured.

Wow! I'm truly amazed at the disparity of issues, and non issues. I bought my truck (Bighorn 4x4 w/sport package) in June of 2019. Have ~31K on the odo, now. It spent several thousand of those miles dragging a box trailer around. The A/C is marginal, IMHO, but probably good enough to pass the...

Not me. I don't really care. I still have the rotary knob on the dash. Other people were complaining. I have heard of it being set up both ways, depending upon what car it is. Still think it could be an easy change, or even customer configurable.

My truck doesn't have a hood switch. I left that option turned off. Otherwise, the theft alarm and warning LED both work fine. Just based upon the other entries (heated seats, etc.) I'm guessing that additional hardware is also required. I added nothing to turn on the VTA.

I think I would just install Waze on my phone, and then plug it in. (Been there. Done that.) It's way more useful than my Garmon ever thought about being.

I had to replace my rear tires at ~24K. Even running them "soft" they still wore out the centers before the edges. (I towed a lot, but very seldom loaded the truck down.) I replaced them with the OEM Wildpeaks. My tire guy even had them a few bucks cheaper than Tire Rack. I never get 24K out of...

The bass-ackwards shift pattern could be made "user configurable". It's just contacts and software. Ram ought to jump on that. Bury it in the "controls" menu, along with whether or not the mirrors tilt down when you shift into reverse.

Yes. I used a different module, but still used AlfaOBD. There are fairly detailed instructions, elsewhere on the forum. (I followed them carefully. Worked great.)

I don't own a diesel, but since nobody has bothered, yet, I'll venture a guess. Your engine is probably keyed to throttle opening, and load. Taller tires will present more of a load, for a given throttle opening. Your trans will likely appear to downshift "more easily" (sooner?) than it does...

I seem to remember that the nav radios also have (or at least it's available) FCA's equivalent of OnStar. Whateverthehell it's called. It would almost have to use a cellular connection. Is there an unused antenna connector on the radio? If not, I could picture it being built into the "shark...

Okay... so my 8.4 non-nav radio has two antennas. Broadcast and XM. (Which the XM antenna would probably work for GPS, too, if I had nav. Or maybe not.) So how is this thing supposedly transmitting? And to what? I really have my doubts. And an OTA upgrade, if it even can be received, can be...

Do you have the specs handy? I have gauges. I don't know if my hoses/adapters will work on the ports, though. (Set up for 134.)

My 48 was measured to the left of the instruments, in the corner. I usually leave the thermometer in its plastic "pocket clip / sheath", and it wouldn't fit through the slats on the center vent.

Well... I have been following this situation, on and off, for a while now. I still have not talked with the dealer. But I suppose the fact that I can get 48 degrees F, at the vents, with upper 90s ambient, would indicate that I should sit down and shut up, and count my blessings. (It takes...

Sorry if this has been posted. I looked around, and ran a search, and didn't find anything. I have the 20" Falken Wildpeak tires on my 2019 Ram. I just had to replace the two rears at 25K because they were worn to the point that I wasn't comfortable driving on them anymore. (One was down to the...

I need to replace the rear tires on my 1500. (The Falken Wildpeak A/T3WA) My local tire guy can get them for like 20 bucks cheaper than Discount Tire. Yeah buddy! (Roy's Tire. Carrollton GA.)

It really started way before that. I had a friend who had a mid-70s Toyota Corolla, with a 4 speed. If you tried to down-gear to slow down, the d@mned thing would try (poorly) to rev match whatever speed and gear you were doing. When you finally got to a stop, it would idle the engine down...

It's an emissions thing. Revving it up and then dropping the throttle quickly causes all sorts of nastiness (thinking NOx, maybe?) If it slows down gradually, that puff of whatever-the-hell-it-is is eliminated.
