The problem I, and I think everyone else, have is that the "digital key tile" does not show up in the RAM app for me.

You didn't mention running the RAM app on your iPhone to pair it to the truck. The RAM video on using a smartphone as a key is here: It shows using the app and tapping the "digital key tile" in the app. Did you do that? Or were you able to pair it some other way?

I will be prepared next time. Also, from Amazon and Walmart, the Mobil 1 is a little less expensive than the Pennzoil. The Mobil 1 is $24.97 for a 5 quart jug. $50 for two sounds a lot better than the $75 I paid yesterday at Napa... I would be happy to use Mobil 1 or Pennzoil, so I'll go...

This is probably not news to any of y'all, but it was a pain in my @ss today. Getting an oil change on an SST HO. That's what. I have just over 5K miles on it now and wanted an oil change. I went to my local dealer, pulled into the lane with the big sign that says "Express Lane" and went in...

Right. And the details of exactly that are what I was asking about and speculating about. Like, just for example, can it pull it when the battery is at minimum SOC at the start, with max load (14K #), and maintain the speed limit (up that whole grade they talk about)? I don't think a Pentastar...

Man, sorry. I was off to the races (in my mind) this morning! Yes. The 270 HP is the peak output from the generator. So, after conversion from mechanical to electricity. That is my bad. The normal Pentastar in a RAM is spec'ed at 305 HP, I think. So, starting up that long grade, pulling 14K...

That is not the whole question, now, is it? The question is what is the efficiency of converting the mechanical rotation power out of the ICE into electricity and then converting it back into mechanical rotation? It is not JUST the efficiency of the electric motor itself. With a conventional...

Steve Jobs is "His Honor" and you're calling other people girly men?!? If you didn't buy a Chuck Norris brand cover, you can go retrieve your little peanuts off the teacup shelf and let your wife put them back in her purse now. With that cover on there, you can't even fit your Barbie Malibu...

You do realize that Power is Power, no matter what units you express it in? Kilowatts and Horsepower are just different units measuring the same thing. Power is Work done per unit of time. And Work is Force applied over a distance. Horsepower (a specific unit of Power) is equal to Torque (in...

Okay, the 2nd video gave a bit more info. Thanks for that. He said that on the long tow up that grade in CO, towing 14K#, and only running on the gas engine, it was able to pull the grade AND maintain the battery at 35% SOC. They have also said that the ICE/generator can put out 202 kW, peak...

That video didn't really give much if anything new. Not in detail. And it is 4 months old. I still don't know: - will it pull that grade that they talk about, with a 14K# load, if you start with only 35% battery charge? Or will it only do it if you start up the grade with a fully charged...

That's a fact, Jack! lol!! :D I don't know about you, but there are (obviously) plenty of people here on this forum, and in life, that are SO keen to hear what sounds good to them that they choose to make it even louder, so they can hear it better and it sounds better to them. To me, people...

My guess is that if you are towing heavy, in real mountains, it very well could run all or at least most of the time. Especially if you have already run the batteries down to 50% or less or something like that. Aside from a worst-case scenario like that, it definitely SHOULD not run all the...

Or, the fob at home was close enough to let him start it, and then he never turned it off. And maybe hit Ok on the steering wheel to dismiss the "fob not present" message maybe without even noticing it. Maybe. Until OP gives more info, it's just another Internet fable.

This.

I paid my dues with about 13 years of Hemi ownership. By modern standards, it is a gutless dog. All bark. No bite. Okay top end power, but total weaksauce in the midrange. All the ones I owned had a 3.92 rear end and still had to downshift gears (often, more than one) just to hold speed up even...

Some want bark. Some want bite. I'll take Silent But Deadly over Not-fast But Furious.

I know my tires don't stick as well when they're not at the temp they were designed for. And the oil in my engine is not the same viscosity when it's at the temp it was intended to operate at versus a much lower temperature. Do you think the friction plates (or whatever they're called) in a...

Hmm. This is all sounding so familiar...

I have not, really. But, was actually looking at the Uconnect nav over the weekend and I think I want to give it a real try. It looked like it might actually be really nice. It looked like it might have some features that could be really handy. I need to play with it some. But, an example of...
