    Ride Soft

    This topic has probably been discussed before, but perhaps the forum police will allow me to post about it again. What would be the easiest and cheapest way to make my 2023 Ram 1500 ride like a 1976 Cadillac? And then what would be the best way to do that? And in both cases, it retains most...

    RF can cause problems

    You need to read this all the way through; it sort of rambles. While using my laptop while sitting feet up in a recliner, it went bonkers. The screen started blinking, and the mouse pointer froze. I just happened to notice my pickup key fob was lying on the computer just below the keyboard...

    Roof lights

    Since the roof lights normally found on heavier pickups are required by federal law to give other vehicles an indication of the size of the vehicle, I wonder why the lights are not required for lifted 1500s. The basic reason for the lights is to indicate the height of the truck.

    Searching

    I have been searching for a post I know is somewhere here, because I've seen it. It's about the removal of the cover that contains the rear USB and 12-volt connections. Mine has neither. I understand the wiring is there. I use USB and rear and search only returns posts with the word rear...

    Horn wiring

    Is the fuse for the horns under the dash or hood? I would like to be able to put a very loud horn in my pickup so I can blow it at truck drivers who want to drive 1/2 a mile faster in the left lane than the truck they are trying to pass in the right lane. And take 5 miles and 10 minutes to do...

    Driving posture and pain

    This post is just an observation and a suggestion. That's all. My neck has been hurting severely. I thought it was my arthritis, and part of it might be. I could drive about 50 miles before the bumps from uneven roads and just general pavement would make the neck hurt so much that I had to...

    Aerodynamics

    Well this has been discussed before a lot I'm going to put it in a different forum just because it's somewhat different than what I've been told before. And there's also some documentation for who did it test. Take it as you want. Several professional studies have measured exactly how bed...

    V-8

    I have a 2023 e torque 5.7 v8. I was raised in the age of V8's. I drove fast then and still do sometimes and test the limits of the V8. Other than ego and some esoterics I do not understand why people still think that V8 should be produced. Other engines are just as powerful just as quick and...

    Maybe a suggestion

    Hopefully this won't get me banned. I taught school school for many years and if a student asked me a question and I replied "I already answered that go look it up", I would have been fired rather quickly. People learn in different ways and I needed to to explain in ways they best understood...

    360 camera system

    Thinking about installing aftermarket 360 camera system. 2023 Big Horn 1500. Standard mirrors. How hard to get them apart enough to install the side cameras and route the wiring? .

    Less dull display

    Is there an android program that will put a picture on my 8.4" display. I don't need maps all the time and the Ram screens are pretty dull. "

    Center 8.4" display Quit

    Well almost, it tells me to turn the switch to run or start the engine. And that is all except for a lean menu at the top and bottom. It does recognize the android app, but will not load it. Tells me to turn the ignition on when driving down the street. Is there a way to poke it or take it...

    How it's calculated

    This is sort of a "I think" post. Just asking for comments. Observing the miles per gallon indicator on the dash it changes easily. Since I have not reset the indication for several thousand miles the mpg indicated changes too much for the calculation to be total miles and total gallons used...

    Clearing Queue

    How do I clear the media queue? 2023 1500 8.4 center display. I can get the queue on the screen but can not figure out how to clear it.

    Keyed power

    Just as possible help, if not already posted. Looking at the underhood fuse box and cover. Between F36 and K09 there are a couple of skinny spade lugs. The one toward the right side of the pickup(passenger) is hot when the key is on. I do not know if it connects directly to the battery. I...

    Center Consol

    I have a 2023 Ram 1500 with the 8.4 in center console. I can get the media queue on the screen, but I can not figure out how to clear it or to clear a specific media that I don't want. Can anyone help?

    Switched Power under hood

    Head

    Has anyone installed one of the 12" aftermarket head units? Are they plug and play? Any programming? I intentionally did not specify which head unit. Looking for a range of information. Whatever experience you've had.

    Center screen position

    A lot of people don't like controls for radio and AC on the digital display. I can't blame them. However, if manufacturers would move the screen closer to the driver, maybe angle it a little so that it is easier to reach, make the controls bigger, and maybe provide sound feedback. Any...

    Cleaner display

    This has no doubt been discussed, however, I can't find it. Is there a way to clean up the center display to allow maps to be the only info besides a left side menu.
