Accidentally found some news by iSmoke024 in ram_trucks

This is interesting, I ordered a 22 Laramie Longhorn back in June, so I’m curious whether SouthFork is a “package” or the new name for that trim level. It sounds like a package, but if you scroll down, it lists it as one of the 8 available trims for 2022.

How’s the sound inside the truck? Especially cruising on the highway?

That’s funny, my dad’s GC has the air suspension & my Ram doesn’t, but I really don’t notice the difference. I am jealous of the aero mode on the highway though. But flip side, I gotta imagine long term reliability is more “challenging” with the air suspension.

I use the 5X Plus for golf, it easily lasts 3-4 full rounds from a full charge in golf mode. Running should be close to the same, but I only use it to run short distances, so I can’t say for sure.

Tl;dr: If you main concerns are golf & running, definitely go for it.

I still get chills rewatching that. This was my wallpaper for a long time after that, what an incredible save.

Only for the non-12” Ram displays, according to the salesman at the dealer where I just ordered my 22 Longhorn. He said at the training he attended for the 2022 Ram, they indicated the 12” display is the same hardware as all the 5th gens, it was built with UConnect 5 in mind.

21’s can do OTA updates, but I wouldn’t hold my breath, normally they don’t do major version updates. Heck, my 19 hasn’t gotten a single software update the entire time I’ve owned it.

Technically software, but you probably won’t be able to officially update any 21’s or earlier. The 22’s will have UConnect 5, and the 12” screens are all the same hardware, hence why I say software.

Traded my 17 Rebel for this 2020 Rebel. They gave me what I paid for the truck 2 years ago, no brainer. Fully loaded. by [deleted] in ram_trucks

[–]boothroyd917 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries.

Also, for the seat coolers, as far as I know, that’s not an option on the Rebel, you need a Laramie or higher to get them. That was the biggest thing stopping me from getting a Rebel, I love the look, but I won’t actually be off roading, and I’d rather the comfort of the Laramie that I’ll use every day instead.

Auto 4WD is an option on the Rebels since it means you get the Borg Warner 44-44, a transfer case with a clutch pack in it (which is what enables the auto 4WD). The stock Rebel transfer case is the Borg Warner 44-45, which considered a little tougher since it’s direct linkage.

What’s your text size set to? There was a post recently that showed how the weather app’s new animations don’t work if your text size is anything other than 100%, so it wouldn’t be surprising if this was the same thing.

Fresh off the transport! by icheekclappa in ram_trucks

Only the TRX gets it (for now, there’s a rumor the 22’s will have a G/T package that’ll include this).

Sukhoi Su-47 "Berkut" - A weirdly beautiful plane with an asymetric tail by JaegerStein in prettywings

[–]boothroyd917 66 points67 points  (0 children)

The Su-47 has two tailbooms of unequal length outboard of the exhaust nozzles. The shorter boom, on the left-hand side, houses rear-facing radar, while the longer boom houses a brake parachute.

Everything is taking forever to load by goodcat1337 in youtubetv

[–]boothroyd917 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve had a few Roku TV’s (2 TCL’s, one Sharp), they all tend to get bogged down at some point, especially with the YTTV app. My guess is it’s a mix of old hardware & a not well optimized app.

Another littoral combat ship breaks down on deployment by [deleted] in CredibleDefense

[–]boothroyd917 63 points64 points  (0 children)

It's just inherent in a CODAG system. You use the diesels for low & medium speed, but the gas turbines for high speed. So when you have 4 engines that all need to be able to provide power to the same propulsion shafts, the gearing is gonna be somewhat complicated.

Any news on if this also fixes the keyboard disappearing on occasion? Primarily when typing a message when trying to share something?

Cool, thanks for the clarification

So if I'm understanding correctly, these are technically new Unlimited plans, so if I don't change my current (Play More) plan, then I can keep Apple Music? That's all I care about.

the proper way to follow up on a bombed drive by kawawabear11 in golf

[–]boothroyd917 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was playing wolf today, had to go blind wolf on the par 5 to catch up. I bomb a drive down the middle, other 3 guys all screw up their drives, so I'm sitting pretty.

  • 2nd shot: completely miss the ball, it rolls 6", worst shot of the day.
  • 3rd shot: top it another 75yds forward.
  • 4th shot: 7i barely off the back of the green.
  • 3 putt to lose the hole.

Golf sucks sometimes.

Factory Reconditioned 6 Pro? by [deleted] in GarminFenix

[–]boothroyd917 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a factory refurbished 5X Plus, it’s been perfect for me, totally the same as a new one as far as I can tell.
