    Start/ stop system

    The Tazer DT Beta version 8.0.6 does more than just ESS (apparently 8.0.5 would occasionally drop the last setting of S/S in memory). I bought the unit primarily to match my tires to the speedo. So I set the following as well. Tire size changed from 31 to 34. TPMS changed to 45PSI and warning...

    Multi Function Tailgate

    I like mine a lot as well. With a bad back it makes loading/unloading bags of mulch, potting soil, salt or our recumbent trikes easier. Worth the extra money and we have not had any problems with it. I have had the truck since last November but only have 3400 miles on it.

    First Issue with my 2019 RAM 1500 - RF Hub Died!

    You're of course right if it's designed to work like that. I worked in mainframe tech for 44 years. The IBM z13 could be configured with 141 CPU's of which 15 or so were spares. The processor processed 1.6 billion instructions a second and if they encountered one of hundreds of different...

    First Issue with my 2019 RAM 1500 - RF Hub Died!

    I think it would be prudent to have a redundant backup Hub that would take over, send a message to replace the primary and give you 90 days to do it and keep reminding you weekly until you do. I plan on being out West this Spring and off road quite a bit. Hmmm I wonder what a satellite phone costs.

    Tailgate Opened driving down the road 2020

    This just happened on my 2021 Limited. Parked my truck, no "tailgate ajar light" on or any other light. Got out of the truck and locked it using the door handle button. Later in the afternoon it was still closed but in the morning it was down. It is an MFT. When I first got truck and opened it...

    2021 questions (potential new buyer)

    I tried the CPLAY2AIR Dongle in my 2021. I use the left USB port under the screen and keep the unit in the little cubby to the left. I just leave it there and my iPhone XR connects in about 15 seconds. I wait till it connects before putting it in the Qi charger.

    how is fuel tank level calculated?

    I'm only at 627 miles on my 2021 Ram. Coming home yesterday I could't figure out why my range was 167 miles but I was nearly on empty. Then it passed what I THOUGHT was the empty mark and I had a good laugh at myself. I could only see the true empty mark if I leaned forward and looked directly...

    Disappointing Incentives

    I got my ordered 2021 Ram last Monday. The rebates were $1500 for a National and Southeast something or other and $500 for financing. I only financed a minimal amount for the $500 rebate and will pay it off in the first payment. I admit I am fortunate to be in a position to buy outright...

    2021 Limited HUD and split tailgate delayed?

    Mine was ordered September 24th. No word yet and dealer said I would get an email when it goes to the inspection phase. I'm not in any hurry really, it's out of my control. Oh, I've got six of the packages listed above. 10-12 weeks puts it out to mid-December, hopefully in time for some end of...

    REAR WINDOW FRAME CRACKED

    Good to see you have some humor with what you're going through. Yea I think the extended warranty is in order too.

    REAR WINDOW FRAME CRACKED

    My ordered 2021 should arrive sometime in November. My question is: would this still happen if I never open/close the window (on past trucks I never opened it). If it doesn't matter I'll just monitor daily for the first few months.
