Topic pretty much says it all. In my 2019 GMC used an iPod for music, iPods are dead. Can one of the new MP3 players work with the 2026 RAM 1500 info system?

Dunno, U got that fancy U Conn 5. Go out and try and let us know. You may want to, if U have not, download your manual for the truck. I would bet there is also an additional supplemental manual for the U Conn 5 system. There are screens and sub screens for operations of the U Conn 5 to include devices attached.

If you have some USB inputs, either on the dash or in the center console, load up some MP3 files on a USB stick and give them a try.

My 2024 Ram 2500 will play the most commonly used file types including MP3, FLAC, AAC & WMA.
