    TransferFlow Replacement Tank for Hemi

    Maybe I missed it, but did TF indicate how much extra weight these tanks would be (with fuel) over stock? Wondering the hit to payload and how I should fit this into my calculations for future travel trailers/fifth wheels and camping gear. I've already dropped probably 100 lbs from having...

    Google is updating Android Auto to fit all screen sizes!

    I've had no issues with the assistant, but I imagine issues with that will be more and more common as Google drops the assistant in favor of Gemini, both from Assistant losing features and from Gemini struggling to pick up the slack. Only issue I've had so far is they're not kidding about...

    Are LED trailer lights the cause of Towing Light Check not working?

    I just pulled an open car hauler with all LED lights on it, and the light check from the truck worked every time. Couldn't check reverse lights since the trailer didn't have them, but everything else was perfect.

    Google is updating Android Auto to fit all screen sizes!

    I'm not sure if it impacts the TomTom nav since I don't use it and mine appears to be always in dark mode, but I noticed when I notch the dimmer switch up to the top setting (before turning on the dome lights), the dash goes to full brightness and AA switches to day mode for maps. Maybe the...

    Input on 2025 3500 6.4L

    I've only had my 2500 6.4 with 4.10's for a little over two months, but so far I like it a lot. I opted for the Hemi instead of the Cummins because my commute is 12 miles, and the gym and various stores we go to are less than 5 miles away. For the few times per year we'll be towing something...

    Google is updating Android Auto to fit all screen sizes!

    I'm sure that was in jest... but I was thinking the other day a lot of uConnect issues could be resolved if Ram/Stellantis dumped it and switched to Android Automotive (different from Android Auto). Volvo did that, and GM seems to be doing the same. I'm hoping aftermarket radio companies do it...

    Ram Trucks Facing Surge In Infotainment Screen Thefts

    If someone desires to be a thief and steal something, they don't need an internet article to tell them how to do it. They've likely figured it out all on their own or watched a YouTube video that discussed doing something that requires removal of the screen.

    Google is updating Android Auto to fit all screen sizes!

    I've never used the mute button since I've never had one in a vehicle before (came from 9 years in my Wrangler, Journey and Charger before even that), so I checked. It does not pause YouTube Music. That would be nice, but I'm used to mute buttons not doing that on other devices so I don't...

    Google is updating Android Auto to fit all screen sizes!

    https://a.co/d/aXubOwN Correct, everything functions when tapped on, so far.

    Google is updating Android Auto to fit all screen sizes!

    So far I think I have a solution to this problem that RAM refuses to fix. There is another AI android streaming box from a company called AutoSky. I have the "Lite" version of their product from Amazon that cost about $70. It works in much the same way as the other boxes do by spoofing...

    Dirty engine bay

    My engine is a bit dirtier than that. I specifically instructed the dealer to no more than rinse the salt off the body from my test drive and vacuum the seats and carpet, because dealers always wash new cars and trucks with bricks. Irritatingly, they DID wash it, and so I'll be spending a...

    Firestone Transforce AT2

    Let us know how you like them after getting some miles on them. That's what I'm looking at since I love the Continental brand (ExtremeContact summer only tires on my Special, quiet, comfortable, great traction), but it'll be a few years before I need tires on my truck. It's at 1000 miles now.

    Google is updating Android Auto to fit all screen sizes!

    Thanks! Is there anything in particular in the listing that suggests to you this one is better able to do the job of spoofing CarPlay to get fullscreen Android Auto? Is it the line stating that wired CarPlay is required? There are numerous options like that, so I'm looking around to hopefully...

    Foam strip behind sunroof glass falling?

    Does anyone have any clue what this strip of foam behind the sunroof glass is for? My shade was feeling grabby for a day or two, then yesterday I pulled the shade back and this foam strip halfway fell down. It appears to be loosely attached to a piece of the glass assembly behind the glass, but...

    Truck shopping; '24 or wait for '25

    I bought a leftover 2024 because the dealer was offering more discounts, Patriot Blue appears to not be offered for 2025, I'm not sold on the electrical architecture update reliability, and uncertainty with these moronic tariffs if I ordered one. Hemis seem to only just be coming online anyway...
