Just thought I'd report that the air conditioning is ice cold in the 2020 Rams. So they must've fixed that issue from 2019. First humid day here in Minnesota for the year. 89 degrees & muggy as heck. I had my air on 5. Had to turn it down to 3 because I was freezing. Temp was set at 64 I think. Took only a couple minutes before I had to turn it down. That's with it sitting in the sun all day & a black truck !

Could you post your vent temperatures? Just saying your AC is ice cold, or freezing is really subjective. What is cold to you may be 50 degrees, while that sucks to me.

My 2020 was built in March. Vent temps don't go below 50 degrees without the heater core cutoff. Not fixed in 2020.

My RAM measured in the upper 30s from the vent last year... that’s “cold” by AC terms, I think. No mod done either, it came like that from the factory.

50 degrees is not cold to you? Holy hell, that is frigid!
If you live in Az or Fl then 50 f probably feels cold, ha ha. That’s when they all wear thick coats. (I just moved from Az 2 yrs ago...)

Yeah I believe that 38-40 F is the rough target for what is considered to be “good” (with the exception of 2019 RAM’s).

Without hack

Nice temperatures, that's what we are getting with the hack. Also without the Hack, we are getting different drivers side vent temperatures, 6-8 degrees warmer than the passenger side. Can check your passenger side vent right next to your screen?

So basically the same on both sides. Looks like you have properly functioning blend doors. Thanks for the feedback with pictures.

My Ram shoots snow out the vents in the summer and fire out the vents in the winter. I can also fill the cab with water and drive around in my very own hot tub.

I may be losing it...If Ram had built a cure for cancer, some folks would bellyache about it. :rolleyes:
