I wanted it in the worst way, but I needed a truck, so couldn't wait for '22. But yea, if I could have held off, I would have, as I think the current version is still a problem for Ram, and after three years of the gen-5, they still haven't ironed out all of the wrinkles.

Depends how bad you want wireless carplay or android auto. Not a big deal for me so I chose not to wait.

Afraid not. Here is a video of UConnect 5 in action on a 2021 Durango.

I dont remember if it was uconnect or android auto that you have to pay monthly for after it runs out but I chose not to but my dealer still connects to my truck and emails me status reports on a regular basis. I hope there is a way to disconnect from them as I prefer to be off the grid as much as possible. anyone know if it is possible to turn that off.
