    New Software Update Wireless CarPlay?

    Sorry Man, I ain't gonna lie - I don't use it. I have a USB Thumb Drive for all my tunes. Good idea taking a pic of the screen - I keep looking for a Post-It pad and a pen, since I'm relatively new to smart phones (duh...).

    Alpine 9 Speaker System, Adding A Subwoofer.....

    No worries, Man! I like your inventory there. I had some 6x9 Infinity Kappas in my 2012 along with a powered MTX Thunderform (2 10" Terminators) - LOVED that system... and miss it badly, too. My '97 had a similar recipe, but its Thunderform wasn't powered, so I drove it with an MTX...

    Novice Ceramic coating question

    The only PPF I've seen on vehicles here in West Texas has yellowed over time (you can immediately spot the transition on a white car after a few years). Having said that (and not having a white car), I've been considering a nose & mirrors treatment for mine, but I don't know that I want to be...

    New Software Update Wireless CarPlay?

    Mine hit me up yesterday morning, and thankfully so. When I first fired it up to head to work after driving back and forth to OKC over the weekend, I could hear not only a tune playing from USB1, but also some ‘morning team radio guys’ talking about the Olympics and whatever else (I could...

    Alpine 9 Speaker System, Adding A Subwoofer.....

    Nice! So you basically juiced up all the heavy hitters with the Fosgate 5-Channel, and the Amp-Pro's bass knob lets you fill-it-in or back-it-off as needed? That's pretty awesome, I must say - I like Fosgate stuff, too (I had some 10" Punches in my blue '85 Nissan 4x4 a LONG time ago)! Is the...

    Blackout Limited grill part #

    On a somewhat related note: my '21 Longhorn has the chrome surround with horizontal chrome slats, of which I'm not a big fan (almost sliced open my fingers cleaning a similar grille on my 2012 Lonestar, so I switched that one over to black honeycomb - much better, IMHO). To be honest, I was...

    Side window vent visors

    I've had my Weather Tech in-channels for about 3 weeks now as well, and it's been in the 100s for the most part. So far, so good - they seem just fine although I was a little surprised as they move slightly (just a few millimeters) when dropping and/or raising the windows. I guess that's the...

    BedRug Classic with Hardtop

    Sounds like a solid plan to me. Good luck with it!

    Trailer Brake Switch Removal

    Not sure where to put this (Drivetrain, Interior, Audio, etc.), so here it is. Has anybody ever removed their trailer brake switch? If so, what are the issues/drawbacks? Will the BCM get mad and throw a code (or worse)? I bought the truck 'pre-owned' and it's equipped with the towing...

    BedRug Classic with Hardtop

    A good friend of mine has a '19 Raptor with a spray-in liner, and went with a 'painted-to-match' SnugTop & Bed Rug (complete kit). It's pretty sweet, I must say. I don't think you'll be disappointed in the least.

    Frisco, TX Dodge dealer

    Wow. Sounds they had the same 'sales orientation & indoctrination team' visit them during initial stand-up as the All-American 'Awfulplex' in San Angelo... with the exception of our Service Dept being comprised of a bunch of redneck hacks that seem to only know how to make things worse - I...

    Anyone remove the buckle from back of Longhorn seats?

    I like my truck, but I got the Limited Longhorn because my wife found the truck and thought the saddle colored leather interior wouldn't get as hot as the black leather of the Limited Sport (similarly equipped) I was looking at. I ain't gonna lie: all of the tiny-tot cap-gun engraving...

    Kicker CS Upgrade

    It's hard to pick between Infinitys and JBLs - both are top-quality.

    TRX $91,000!

    'Envy' is such an ugly little monster, and usually the root of such comments (especially when rolling around in pretty much the same vehicle with maybe fewer accoutrements). I've always felt that a proper 4x4 truck should at least be taller than its driver... and I'm 6'5", so... But as far...

    TRX $91,000!

    When I'd gone to the local stealership with the '21 Black Widow listed for $59,505, I saw that price online and had printed listings from AutoTrader.com, CarGurus.com, and even their own website! When I asked the salesman why they were letting it go for just $60K, he said, "Oh no - it's $85K."...

    Does Your Truck Have A Name???

    Only one of my favorite all-time movies. Except for some cheesy early-'80s references and the horrible special effects for the F-16s, that movie is solid and still holds up (IMHO). The TV series however... not so much.

    Does Your Truck Have A Name???

    My wife calls mine "Clifford." Guess why ("the Big Red Dodge"). (funny... it doesn't say 'Dodge' anywhere on it, though) LOL!

    TRX $91,000!

    I balked on a Black Widow for $85K (which was actually a good deal, considering the prices seen elsewhere around the country). I got my Limited Longhorn fairly cheap at around $50K ($64K, minus my 2012 Lonestar trade-in for $14K) so I guess I'm not freaking out too much about it. It's just...

    TRX baby brother

    That's kind of what I'm doing with my Limited Longhorn - leveled with 35s, and it should wind up looking much like a Black Widow (just not 7" taller). Good lookin' Baby Rex - Nice Job!! (y)

    Android Auto and UConnect lag

    Another Update: So, Saturday afternoon I hop in the truck and decide not to plug-in the phone (haven't gotten the 'charging only' cable yet... should've gotten one while I was in Best Buy that day, now that I think about it... dang it!). I was expecting it to pair up to UConnect via...
