Hemi 5.7
Hey guys...new to the forum as I just purchased my first ever RAM! 2017 5.7 Hemi, short bed, Ignition Orange! I am so impressed with this truck. Powerful, handles so much better than my previous ride (2015 F250 diesel) and cannot beat that awesome color!!! It's a shame the other truck makers don't make interesting trucks.

Anyway...I also really like the Uconnect system and have found an interesting feature I had not heard about before. Maybe I'm the only one who didn't know this...you guys can laugh and throw rocks as necessary :)

Has anyone else noticed that with SXM radio and favorites set, when you tune to a new station, the song almost always plays from the beginning. For a while I thought this was simply coincidence but it almost always happens...especially if tuning as a result of a favorite song or artist alert.

Anyway...I think this is pretty cool and I haven't seen it on any other SXM radios (i.e. my wife's 2017 Infiniti Q60). Just thought I'd point this out.

Comments?

Welcome to the forum Sir from Bristol Tn.
I believe the " playing from the beginning " is the default setting when you choose an artist or a particular song as a favorite.

While on SXM choose settings from the bottom menu button and scroll down Untill you see SXM setup . I think you'll find the options there ? Not positive can't remember.

Copy, thanks...I'll take a look there. Didn't realize it was something I could set (or not). Still nice to get the whole song every time you hear something you like. I appreciate the reply...take care...
