On my '14 Laramie only the seat cooling comes on by temperature, and only on Low. The passenger seat will come on at High, which is bizarre because it will do this even if no one is sitting in it.

None of the heated options comes on automatically, not seat, not steering wheel. Which is fine, I'm OK doing my self, I just don't get why the driver's side will come on by itself and only on Low. Weird. Looks like they got it figured out by 2016.

My '21 the driver comes on low and the passenger doesn't come on at all. I wonder why they keep changing it.

I agree with @Grams , it would be nice if the settings were "sticky" through power cycles.

No fold flat floor in the rear cab on my 26
The rear floor is flat in 5th gens. What would be the purpose of a fold flat floor on a floor that's already flat?

I wish my bed was 20 inches longer (something I could have, and would have, had if I bought it new. But you can't always check every box when buying used.)

Honestly, other than the wear and tear that comes with a hard working 12 year old truck, I have nothing to complain about. It's been a great truck.

I don't understand, or this is just a difference between vehicles.
I can push the volume knob to turn off the radio, and I have a button
to turn off the screen so it goes black.

2014 Laramie.

EVIC says the radio is 'muted', not 'off'. The difference being, if it is 'off' it will not turn on automagically when you next start the truck. On this truck it does.

We had never seen that before on a vehicle, and still have not.

OK, now I understand. Although I'll have to check if mine behaves the same way, I thought it went muted and remained muted at next restart, but I'm guessing. I'll double-check a little later.

Even so I'll file this under "that's weird" but not something I don't like. :shrug:


ETA (Edited To Add): I was today-years-old when I learned the truck I've been driving for 9 years has a radio that doesn't turn off! :oops: :crazy:
