If they asked in the voting category about "least favorite" the shift limiting thing would be mine. I wish it were a true thumb shifter. That's one thing I miss about my Titan - the ability to instantly select and hold any gear I want, which is pretty useful here in the mountains. On the other hand, the Ram has a lot more gears so it's a little easier for the truck to find one that works a little more seamlessly than the Titan (5 speed).

You think I can modify my RAM and install the paddle shifters back? LOL I will miss those myself.

In Ram terminology, the gear range buttons are referred to as the Transmission Range Select (TRS) buttons. They are on the lower right side of the steering wheel and have + and - symbols on them.
