Just get one of those casette headphone adapters lolSelling my 19 4R now that I have the pristine 2000' LC (garage kept/museum piece) <- going to be a long term Aussie style build.
Gotta admit the novelty of cassette/DVD player and no AUX port has worn off quickly!Keep frequenting the www.Crutchfield.com site looking at CarPlay head units.
Thanks!
Read some theories about the Fighter Pilot in the commercial - as the HEMI 5.7 and 6.4 engines shared aircraft (code) designations internally.

Egg history too?What airplane had a Hemi engine?
To help the war effort during World War II, Chrysler supplied Hemi engines for the M47 Patton tank and the P-47 Republic Thunderbolt fighter airplane. The P-47 Rebulic Thunderbolt carried the first Hemi with a supercharger to make the engine capable in aerial combat

. What's up with the taking of the cookies? I think it's a shot at ford somehow.
You're right - MOPAR/RAM historically love hiding/foreshadowing pending releases and announcements in plain site (even visible license plate verbiage/numbers).Eagle 5.7, apache 6.4, and 6.2 hellcat all named after aircraft
What's up with the taking of the cookies? I think it's a shot at ford somehow.
That could definitely be a tell-tale clue!
Will we see any name from this list in the next few days???

Hemi coming back… is this Ram admitting that the hurricane is a bust? I believe so… several of us called this when they came out with it and the melted cats, electronics issues and brake problems didn’t help. I am glad to see the hemi coming back. Now let’s see what they do with the new TRX (doubt this announcement) but hopefully more than an rho with a hellcat engine. Either way, I am keeping my 22 TRX, especially for the bargain price you could get one back in 21 and 22.
I'm hoping for OXCART (CIA predecessor to the SR71)
.....or Have Blue (prototypes to the F-117) <- our Sienna minivan plate

After watching the video, something stood out to me. Maybe I’m just reading too much into it, but the fighter pilot is black. The Tuskegee airmen flew P-47 Thunderbolts for a while (my grandfather was one of the people who trained them). Since someone mentioned that the P-47 had the first supercharged Hemi, maybe…
But the flight helmet he’s carrying is too modern to be a throwback to WWII. So maybe not…

Where's our buddy the F-22 pilot at? I'd be curious if the flight suit is specific to a certain plane or not (or if the ad creators even meant for that to be a thing).
I saw something similar on TFL:
"Our friends at Mopar Insiders think that it is indeed pointing to Ram re-reintroducing the “HEMI” V8 engine into their truck lineup. Why? Mopar Insiders says the Ram V8 engine’s internal codename is the F-15 or Eagle. The F-15 Eagle is also a classic fighter jet. If you combine the fighter plane pilot from the teaser with this information, you can come to this conclusion."

Hmm. I think Eagle would go better with the RHO.
Like AMC Eagle. They also had I-6 engines.

So what about the splashes of yellow paint? That’s gotta mean something too. Unless there are multiple messages coming on 6/8
"Yellow Jacket"? The pilot says nice jacket and then there's that yellow.

Unless RAM addresses the software issue I will not purchase another item from them.

You could still buy a Ram 2500 to 5500. Being made in Mexico they are very well put together, and can be optioned with minimal electronics.
