First, love my truck, the big "C" on the side of it makes the truck! Not as fast as the competition, but what a nice towing rig.

I own a 2022 Laramie (without blind spot, DEF sensor and recalls for days that there is no end in sight for parts..), which is comparable in price to a 22 PSD however, (and what really gets me) what a horrible working "infotainment" system! Glitchy, changes home screen all the time, changes user profiles, goes dark, radio won't work after a phone call (cycle power), etc., says it needs to be serviced and the dealer tells you that you must wait for an over the air update to fix, which isn't out BTW. I would also be willing to bet that the PSD passive phone charger works, as we all know the ones in the Ram are just phone heaters :).

Why can you not at least fix this ignotainment system? A 5 year old Ford SYNC system as you looking extremely bad! And BTW, PUT THE SPEED LIMIT (nav system) AT THE TOP OF THE MAP, this way you can see it on a split view and not have to look at the floor to see it!

They wont change that for safety reasons but you can in alfa OBD or just keep hitting the + button for the cruise.

Did they change the speed limit position? On my '21, its on the right hand side of the screen, mid way. Easy to see.

I have tried that doesn't work

Why is it only a safety feature on a ram and not on a Silverado or an F-150 that I have owned

What age were they? My old rams never had this only my 19.
 
2022. It's a bummer. I did the test of setting it at 85 and then increasing it... didn't work. Then started from 70 and maxes out at 85...

In my suburban just last week cruised at 95 all the way to Utah...

Thats the UC5 vs the UC4. Thats a pretty silly place to have it but atleast they have signs all along the road that you can see when looking out the windshield! Lol

I don't disagree with that however, it is nice to have between signs if you miss one. I haven't seen too many rigs that don't display it near the cluster or top of NAV in the past 5 years! It seems anequated.

Yea i know what you are saying if they are going to have the display it should be at the top where its quickly visible
 
UC5 is trash compared to the competition thats for sure. Its interesting because from the research Ive done it runs on Android Automotive (not Android Auto) but its heavily modded to basically be crap. The new GM's and Fords that run on Android Automotive look fantastic.

Stock, to my knowledge, it was 6 months old when I bought it but I don't see any evidence of it being anything but stock other than all the recalls preformed.

There must have been some programming change maybe it was with Alfaobd because stock they are all locked at 85 from what i know

When did they start that? My 19 will set it higher, tested at 89 just to see.
