    First oil change

    I have 2300 miles on my 2023. I plan to get the first oil change at 5000 miles, then every 5000 after.

    USB Audio - Not remembering last song played

    When playing music from my USB drive: If I leave it playing when I shut off the truck, it will lose my spot and start over at the first song on the drive. If I remember, I can change to any other sources (FM or Sirius) and then it will remember where I left off. Is there a fix for this? Or is...

    Anyone have their key fobs stop communicating with the PCM after their battery died?

    Not in my Ram, but had that happen with a 2011 Lexus. The battery was totally dead so the key FOB didn't work, even after I jump started it. After I drove it for a few hours, the key fob worked again.

    Security system/tracker not on app?

    I've had my '23 Big Horn for around two months. I haven't seen anything in that app that is worth paying $14.99 / month. Ford gives you app usage for free, nice to have for my wife's Expedition. I'd have to think about $20 / year for that app. Definitely not $14.99 / month. Pretty disgusted...

    Granite crystal metallic thread

    I haven't kept up on the colors. Bought my '23 new about two months ago. At that time, Granite Crystal was not listed.

    Looks like it will fit. I'd contact the MFG.

    Sim Card or DCM location

    Are we talking about the wifi hot spot? Guess I assume that nobody activated that. I'm sure my kids might like it for their nintendo switch, but I'm not going to pay for that. Everyone can access the Internet on their phone anyway.

    Sim Card or DCM location

    There's a sim card? I've read many that have upgraded to larger radios. Never seen a sim card mentioned.

    Parking

    Agree with backing in unless you absolutely have a straight shot into a space. The longer the vehicle, the more backing in makes sense. I only use the camera to spot where my rear end stops. Otherwise use the mirrors or open the window and watch where my wheels are lining up. Also look for a...

    Let’s see your Dogs!

    My dad passed away Monday night, F* Cancer. We adopted his dog Shasta. She's a Samoyed. This was when she finally started to settle down and relax. I know it will take her at least a few weeks to get used to the insanity going on at our house with 2 adults, 3 kids, 2 other dogs.

    Adding OEM sunroof/panoramic roof

    Following to see if you are able to get this done and how much. I dont have it on mine, but wife has one on her Expedition. Don't think I've seen her use it once. I've opened it a couple times just because it's there. When the weather is perfect, it can be nice.

    Granite crystal metallic thread

    Also admiring those pics. Any data regarding how long those tires last? How do they handle? I could care less about noise thanks to tinnitus and hearing abuse... 🙃

    Beach driving

    One of the biggest problems we face when wheeling with people new to the hobby is that they don't want to air down enough to be helpful. I've been on the hardest trails in California (with a Jeep, not a Ram truck) where I'm aired down to 5psi (though I have beadlocks). Most other experienced...
