    Eco mode while at idle

    Wait, you can disable MDS? How is that done?

    No power wagon 2020?

    The 2020 models don't hit the lots until Nov/Dec of this year. Online configurator may be up a month prior.

    3rd Service; 9 Months; Same Issue

    Anyone else having issues with the 6.4L Hemi and the VVT or MDS or whatever they are calling cylinder deactivation at FCA these days? Mine keeps failing. First time was 'bad gas'. Second time was 'a pinched wire'. This time they're taking the engine apart. Please tell me I'm not the only one.

    1 year 33,000 mile review of 100% stock 2018 PW

    Great write-up! I've had mine since November of last year and have 13k miles on it so far. I hunt, fish, and act as a volunteer firefighter out of it and it serves ALL my purposes. I daily drive it 30 miles to/from work every weekday. I also use it as a family hauler as it is nicer than my...

    touch up paint

    I would go for the Mopar paint. Let me know how it goes as I am in the same boat...I have some nicks and some scratches that both need to be touched up but I don't want it to look like amateur-hour if I do it myself.

    Thoughts on my new Power Wagon...

    It is my unwavering opinion that the later model Power Wagons are what trucks are meant to be. They sit high, have ample power, are capable, and have a fantastic heritage. The only thing I would change on mine would be the addition of a snorkel, which will probably happen soon. However, I do not...

    Newer 2018 PW

    Was your VIN effected by the steering drag link separation recall? May want to log into your Mopar account and check to see if you should take it in.

    New PW. Vibration at highway speed

    Mine definitely vibrates at certain speeds on the highway; it is my belief that it's a combination of the tires, ride height, and suspension setup. It certainly vibrates less than my last F250 FX4 did.

    Drag link recall

    I had the same recall repair done on my '18 PW, but the dealer did the alignment after the weld, so not sure why your aftermarket shop had an issue. However, I did notice that the steering is a bit stiffer after the work; not sure if that is a good or bad side effect of the repair.

    ram 2018 UConnect 8.4 Nav upgrade

    I believe, for the low cost of around $700, you can take your truck to the dealership and they can reprovision your radio with nav, but call first to make sure.

    First Responder / Emergency Lights

    That would be extremely helpful, thank you.

    First Responder / Emergency Lights

    Looking for suggestions on getting my '18 PW fitted with discrete/stealth lighting for firefighter response. I hear Code3 is a good brand to go with, but I would like some options. And pics if anyone has some. Basically, I want my truck to look normal in off duty hours; no visible light bars...

    My Three Step Plan For A Great Back Country Vehicle

    Step 2: go to Harbor Freight and buy a portable air compressor, heavy duty tow strap, a couple D shackles, some gloves, and a storage box for everything. Step 3: Hit the trail.

    Uconnect update issues

    Uconnect told you that you could NOT update over USB? Did you visit the Uconnect site and look at your available software by VIN?

    UConnect mobile app stinks now

    What version did you upgrade to?

    Uconnect Software Update

    Just for giggles, try disconnecting the battery for 20 minutes and then trying the radio again. This will disable the sleep mode and hopefully reset everything back to pre-flash.

    What year is BEST PW

    Not a fan of the rotary shifter though. HD trucks should have a column shifter. And some of the interior elements aren't necessary....carbon fiber in the dash? I like my '18 PW, but wish it had the LED lights.

    Radio Problems

    Or the battery for 10 minutes.

    I've never seen an eco light.

    Yes, the HDs do have VVT, though I've seen little difference when it comes to improved gas mileage.

    Uconnect 4 vs 4C w/Nav - differences?

    Head to DriveUconnect.com for a handy comparison chart, but basically 4C will get you embedded nav. Is it worth the cost when you can go with the 4 and use Android or CarPlay with nav? I would say no, and I bought an '18 with the base 4 radio and don't miss the embedded nav at all.

    Radio Issues

    Call a priest. Seriously though, what radio function is playing when you get to your truck? SXM, A/F M? Pandora or another streaming app? All the above? Are you remotely starting the vehicle first and then getting in while the radio is on?

    DriveUconnect

    Regardless of all the app name and radio branding banter, the simple answer is that, if you are still having issues with remote operations from the mobile Mopar site, then there is an issue with your radio receiving the commands. I would take it into a dealership and show them how often if fails...

    UConnect Sucks HUGE!!!

    Just as a test, have you used the Mopar mobile site to test your remote operations? My Android app, v3.3.3, sometimes does not work and in those instances I use the mobile Mopar site to ensure the connectivity is still working.
