    The Great Air Dam Debate

    In that case they could just not add it and charge us $500 anyway for the improved efficiency!

    Freaking Leather Dash Problems

    I hope so. I got one on mine for use outside but it’s normally garaged. I also got 0% ceramic tint for the windshield that block IR/UV light.

    UConnect 5 widgets

    My 23 limited has widgets for the infotainment screen and instrument cluster. Both work fine but I don’t usually use them. on my infotainment screen I usually have CarPlay up and on my instrument cluster they’re in the rotation so I can take a peek if I need to but I don’t have them up all the...

    Who sells custom orders at the invoice price?

    Mark Dodge. They’re not in Florida though but it’s west side of Louisiana- definitely drivable from Florida. In Florida you have crazy doc fees so even if you can get invoice you still get bent over on doc fees. I just got a custom order from them. 13% under MSRP which puts it a bit UNDER...

    Payload capacity for 2023 Limited

    Hmmmm….my 2023 4wd Limited came in with 1389 lbs payload….but yeah that “tow capacity“ number is meaningless.

    Autolock car when leaving with TazerDT or AlphaOBD?

    on my truck there’s an option to do that right in the Uconnect settings. You can turn auto lock on or off.

    Trailer TPMS sensors

    My truck with factory tow package came with 6 TPMS sensors….which is great. however, the rv I’m looking at purchasing already has TPMS sensors and it’s own monitoring system (I think I can connect to it via Bluetooth? Maybe it’s WiFi….not sure). The point is the tires already have TPMS...

    Adding cargo divider and/or utility rails

    Looking at the picture closely it appears that the diver sits BELOW the bed rails. My guess is the rails that come with the divider are installed into the bed rails and provide anchor points for the divider. It doesn’t just slide to any point in the bed, just the 3 positions where the divider...

    I have a video on how to use a fax machine……on Betamax

    Ext Warranty value?

    Ugh. My fax machine retired and moved to Florida in like 1995

    Ext Warranty value?

    “Insurance“ is only as good as the company that provides it. What they say they cover isn’t as important as what they actually cover and write a check for when the time comes. a lot of these third party warranty companies make their money by simply promising the moon and then closing up shop...

    Ext Warranty value?

    Maxcare also gives you a prorated refund.

    Last Year Of Classic 1500?

    For me, I’m inside the truck most of the time and the Gen 5 interior definitely wins.

    Last Year Of Classic 1500?

    Upfront maybe but what about parts and service? I haven’t looked but I wonder what the hour guide (whatever they call that book that tells you how many hours various repairs take that ships use to bill for labor) for the same repairs on DS vs DT. The hybrid system alone probably adds...

    Last Year Of Classic 1500?

    Price and big companies fleet standardization. I don’t know what company but I suspect there was a very large entity (or maybe a military?) that standardized on the gen 4 and redeploying a support system for the gen 5s was expensive and required more time (ot maybe the gen 5 wasn’t even...

    A/C seats

    They’re not A/C seats, they’re vented seats. they have a blower that blows cabin air up your butt and lower back. There’s no separate A/C or vents for the seats. the “heated” part uses electric coils to warm the seats.

    UConnect Box Update issues

    It’s behind the rear seat?? I thought it was behind the glovebox. if its behind the rear seat sounds like it’ll be easier to rip out. are you sure it’s behind the rear seat for the ‘23s?

    Refresh for 2024 models?

    HUD requires digital dash because the settings menus for the HUD are designed to be displayed on the digital dash. Without the digital dash you wouldn’t be able to set up the HUD. There may be other hardware dependencies as well but looks like the HUD can’t be had without it. Maybe you can...

    What's your favorite low-cost Amazon upgrade?

    As I keep saying, the odds of me dropping my Uconnect screen which is bolted into my dashboard is extremely remote especially considering that I would probably have to drop it on something OUTSIDE the truck to really damage it. I don’t require that level of protection. I simply wanted the...

    What's your favorite low-cost Amazon upgrade?

    I buy the coverage I want from a company that I believe will provide required service at the appropriate time. That said I do shop rates every year and end up switching every now and then. There’s no benefit to paying more than necessary. I certainly didn’t just buy the most expensive policy...
