    Upgrade uconnect?

    Very different hardware "behind the scenes" so to speak. I believe it has been done and posted about on the forum here, but it is very involved and not cheap.

    Ram Leak

    This is why, back when I bad my 2020 Limited, I took the 3rd brake light out and replaced the seal with a better one. Wouldn't have solved a back window issue, obviously, but she never leaked up to the day I traded her in for my TRX anyway. I never did like the idea of silicone/caulk/etc. on...

    2024 "Limited" having an identity crisis

    You can also just post the VIN. We can most likely look up your window sticker.

    Best Battery Money Can Buy

    I know I'm dragging this thread back from the dead a little, but just saw this response. Besides reading from multiple sources a while back about where Duracell units were made, the CCA numbers lined up more with Deka batteries than Johnson Controls (now called Clarios after they sold off their...

    Hemi to Hurricane

    Yup, the upcoming RHO will be first. Probably tailored to take on the regular Raptor and its Egoboost. Rumor mill is small displacement twin turb V8 coming in a couple years, maybe in a revised TRX, but I'm sure the Stellantis mothership in Europe will kill it. Next TRX-level power will...

    Anyone getting a 2025 with the I6 Hurricane?

    If it was a Wagoneer, it was the SO. If it was a Grand Wagoneer, it was the HO. Earlier Wagoneers had the 5.7 as an option and Grand Wagoneers had the 6.4 (from the SRT Charger/Challenger/Durango/Jeep GC) as an option. But now they are no more in the Wagoneers. I keep trying to talk the wife...

    ANTI SPIN DIF

    Back when I had a 2020 with the 3.92 LSD rear end, I used one quart, then dumped in 2 oz of friction modifier into the second quart, shaking it a bit to mix. Then put it in. Then topped off with a bit from a third quart. (All Amsoil 75w-140). Ended up adding another two ounces later due to...

    TFL Trucks - 2025 Ram 1500

    Coming from the IT world, I can almost guarantee you, its more of a case of "we don't know why our understaffed (and possibly underpaid) development team hasn't had all these issues fixed yet." Also having some background with Stellantis's IT practices in a side-ways sort of way, a large chunk...

    2025 Parts

    Good question. I'm also wondering if the console design is close enough (it looks like it from photos) that we can retrofit the dual wireless charging bit to replace the single wireless charger we have.

    4% Under Invoice on a 2025 Ram 1500 Order - (orders should open in December)

    I've read that the Longhorn trim will also have the HO. But yeah, looks like just the higher trims. Will wait for others with more connections than me to confirm.

    Programming keys

    If the keys have already been programmed once for a different box, rumor is they cannot be programmed again (reprogrammed). You'd need a brand new fob, or so I read. Soon, there won't be fobs anymore. Just apps on our smartphones (that don't work 10% of the time :ROFLMAO: ).

    Maps update failure!

    It turns out that the UConnect is very picky with compatible flash drives. I actually threw my files onto a microSD card, and then used a microSD-to-USB adapter. It kept failing and backing out of the update. I tried a different flash drive, no difference. I tried a different microSD card, no...

    Map Updates?

    Sorry, duplicate post. Will keep my response in this thread: https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/maps-update-failure.50140/page-4

    Did an upgrade.

    Just had our first major road trip (aside from the initial trek back home from purchase). Doing 80+ (interstates here have a limit of 80), averaged 12.5 MPG with a wind fighting us a bit. On the way back, averaged just a hair over 13. To compare, my 2020 Ram Limited (3.92 gears) that I traded...

    TRX Envy

    The last vehicle I saw ordered (a 2023 Jeep GC L Overland for a family member) went TBD as it was being delivered to the dealer (+/- a day or so), a couple weeks early of its estimated delivery date. I wouldn't be worried about that.

    Best Battery Money Can Buy

    Duracells are made by Deka, AKA East Penn. The smallest of the big three battery makers, if memory serves me, and they make most (if not all) of their batteries in the USA. Good choice. One of the longest warranties typically. I've heard rumblings of poor quality control this past year or so...

    TRX Envy

    Definitely a lot of abused ones out there. Another reason I bought new, at the advice of many on the TRX forums.

    TRX Envy

    Coming from a 2020 Limited with a lot of the options you're talking about, I'll play devil's advocate. 1. The TRX does have the adaptive LED projector headlights. Almost identical to the Longhorns/Limiteds. The only difference I found so far is that they use both upper and lower LEDs for turn...

    Did an upgrade.

    Still loving it. With a lot of cars, yellow would be too bold, but with a TRX, I really like it. Its definitely different. I have not played with the suspension settings a great deal yet. It absorbs some bumps that the air suspension truck would have bucked a little, and floats where the air...
