So I went to Home Depot this evening and I'm all happy because I'm doing truck stuff with my pavement princess ;-) I get my lumber loaded into the back, climb in and start her up (love the rumble - every time). Then, I notice my screen says software update in progress - 44% done. What the heck? I didn't ask for this nor did I schedule it. Well okay, this shouldn't take long. Let's see - still at 44%. Well, I'll google Ram software updates on my phone and see what I can expect. This is what I got: "The update may take up to 45 minutes. Determine the safest and most convenient time to complete the update, then follow the prompts." I wish I could have determined the most convenient time but noooo. So, let's see - still 44%. Wait - just jumped to 52%. By now, all my happiness has seeped away. Fortunately (I guess) it only took about another 10 minutes.
Since this is the first update (that I know of anyway), I hadn't given updates much thought before. Does a person generally get to 'determine the … most convenient time' to take care of it or is it usually just a surprise?
Thanks for letting my rant. I still love the truck but the software engineers....not so much ;-)
