Review and First Thoughts

[Rmeads]

If possible, could you please put a level on the tip of the shark fin and measure to the ground for the total height of the truck?

Thanks and yours is a great looking truck!

I have ordered the Mopar power running boards and the Undercover flex hard tri fold tonneau. I like the carpeted underside)

Undercover Flex Hard Folding Tonneau

My garage door is 82” and my truck just makes it under so I think the height of 81.9” is accurate.

What options do you have on your truck?

I feel like all the interior upgrades with towing mirrors. I didn’t spec it so it’s how it was at dealership.

I can compare it to a 2500 Chevy ZR-2 with Duramax diesel…

It rides 50% better than the Chevy, but boy do I wish that V8 Duramax was in my RHO!

yeah I came from a lifted bronco and this rides better but not much better lol. Like was said it’s still a lifted truck

Nice info! What’s the exact procedure to do the break-in once I have my truck delivered? I am not a car guy, so I don’t know much about this procedure. Thanks!

basically not going full bore with it out of the lot. Normal driving until 500 miles. Sales guy said launch wouldn’t activate until after 500 and I’m not sure that’s accurate but I didn’t try it. I’m not a expert either so please don’t

New issue. It’s been raining and tonight my sensors were going crazy! Beeping like crazy but no cars around me. Everytime I turned it screamed at me like a car was there. Any others with this experience

Girlfriends Grand Cherokee does this constantly. Nice to see it's a Ram feature too.

Yes. Weather did have some acting up. More the lane keep assist than anything. Sometimes the blind spot detector.

Suspension. It’s like a boat going down the road. It will rock over road imperfections. If you don’t like bouncy…. But in custom mode and set suspension to sport. This will stiffen it up.

Hands free is great in traffic. Can be a little lane bouncy but it’s driving not me so I’m not bitching. Lol

Mine is in shop right now. Went out to leave and truck was dead. Like had to jump it. Check engine light came on but cleared it self later in day. Today it was dead again. Dash board lit up like Xmas tree and misfires. Had it towed in.

I’m not bitching. First of the first. Confident they’ll get it fixed. Got a gladiator as loaner so ready for my truck back now. lol.

1,100 miles on it FYI.

Love the truck though. Good price. Great deal.

Want warranty I would hit up Granger. Let me know if you need a link. Have tire and wheel options too.

Believe it’s a software issue keeping dash and/or WiFi on after leaving truck and killing battery. Heard there are two batteries each for specific purpose. Either way this seems similar to another persons issue as I described. Good luck.

Picked it back up on Saturday. Replaced both batteries.... bunch of battery codes and some random ones probably due to load test issues. So far so good as of last couple days.

DO NOT FREAK OUT. It'll be okay.

Worst part was I was in a base model gladiator for a couple days. lol.

Well, battery was dead this morning, any chance you have a copy of your service report I can show the dealership? Feel free to blackout any personal info

Yes for short bit on dash being on.

Dead again this morning. Going back to dealer tomorrow.

Nothing to really show other than replaced both batteries

So what is the root cause draining everyone’s batteries and what is the fix? Replacing batteries is not a fix.

The fix is rotating the battery’s daily, so use one while the other one is charger and then swap them.

I posted in the "DEAD BATTERY" post not long ago about ppl having the exact same issue at the beginning of the year. Apparently it had something to do with the RAM app and activating the trial subscriptions. A lot of ppl found that deleting the app helped them.

Could be the same issue and they (MOPAR) didnt update the software/firmware/whatever-ware when incorporating all the systems into the RHO. Worth a shot deleting the app and seeing if that helps.
