I also wonder if the Toyota’s also stay on the road a bit longer due to reputation and resale price? You’re more likely to pay to fix a truck that you think is going to keep being reliable(ie: once you fix this one thing). If the resale of an old Toyota is say $5000 but the same year of Ford is...

It was interesting what Tim mentioned in the video that the RAM data includes the bad tranny years before the ZF and some other engine problems they used to have. I found it interesting that for the big 3 the lifespan was within 1.1 years for lifespan. A lot of the statistics for quality and...

Lol, I’m older… I do use google commands in android auto. Very handy sometimes.

I hadn’t tried it until you mentioned it on your podcast. You’re right… works pretty well. Nice for turning off the seat heater for me … 3 heat levels. I had wondered what I could do with the built in voice commands. I had been to lazy to explore them before…sigh

Ha!!! I like that one!

Hey Tim I posted this in your RHO for Tim. Try these commands (I use hey ram for my wake word). Say Hey Ram, turn on driver’s heated seat Or Hey Ram, turn off driver’s heated seat. Or Hey Ram, turn on heated steering wheel Etc. Let me know if it works… just worked on my 2023

Hey Tim, Just watching your pod cast about the ram 1500 with c-Tech. Re: voice commands Turn on your wake word in your truck (like hey Ram). Say Hey Ram, Turn on Driver’s heated seat Or Hey Ram, Turn on heated steering wheel. You can also turn completely off with one command as well.

Someone will have one for the RHO soon I’m sure.

Hey Tim, I wonder if some better under seat storage would be handy for you. For my 2023 I picked up the weather tech under seat storage for the rear seat. We all want to carry more crap in our trucks…lol.. but you don’t see it with the seat down. The good part is, one clip and it comes out if...

I use those storage bins for tools, gloves, etc. It’s very handy that the whole basin lifts out so you can clean it out or pour any water out of it from ice leakage.

That’s too funny. You mean to say a self proclaimed expert isn’t always right? I won’t be able to believe anything said at a bar again (Including what I say).

I understand the reasons for needing mid grade or premium… but I’d rather they all ran on regular fuel as well. My hemi is supposed to run on regular or mid grade… mid grade being recommended (to get max performance). I usually use mid grade but I’ve run regular on occasion when the price goes...

Great video Tim. I’m surprised that they don’t give you an option for regular cruise. I’m in an area where the sensors get covered by ice and slush a lot… That being said, old school wisdom was don’t use cruise in any conditions where it can get slippery. I’ve been in a vehicle twice when...

Good video. Mine is a 2023.. it does bind up on tight turns in 4hi. I think with my steep incline, 90 degree turn, loose gravel, pulling a boat of significant weight makes it work too hard on 4hi. If I put it in 4 low it’s much better. As I had suspected the old 48-12 transfer case with the 392...

That makes sense from my observations.Thanks for the clarification. I noticed a difference when I bring my boat up to my cottage. From the launch I have to make a 90degree turn and climb a sharp incline on a loose gravel driveway. I could use 4hi with the old truck and transfer case. With the...

I do miss my tear it up 2wd mode from my old truck…lol. I’m looking forward to your content on this truck… Unfortunately, it breaks my rule of not buying a truck if it doesn’t fit it my garage… that extra 6” width wouldn’t fit through my garage door(I’d probably be too cheap to pony up the...

Hey Tim, very nice truck I’m jealous. As I understand it 4wd auto runs in RWD mode until it detects slippage then it sends power to the front wheels. I like it for mixed conditions so you are still good on dry pavement as well. I get a lot of mixed conditions in my area in the winter. I have...

That’s a long time at a hotel. Find some attractions to hit in Dallas. Someone suggested a distillery tour…that sounds promising. The truck looks Badass.

Sweet Ride Tim!! It looks badass!

I had the software recall for my 2023 Ram for the stability control issue. I never noticed anything. The update took little time. I guess I agree with Dusdaddy it depends what the recall is for… if it’s to replace my engine I may be more concerned lol. I have heard of people having to bring...
