Looks like Dodge is coming into the compact pickup game again. Competition is good. Too bad the Hyundai Santa Cruz didn't find enough traction to stay.
I got my ‘26 AWD XLT in February 2026. I am in sales and have already put 12,000, mostly freeway miles on my truck. I know it high miles, but should I already have to replace my front tires?
Can totally haul a yard of compost. Barely noticed aside from the squat.
Only downside is I didn’t manage to use all the compost……….
Sorry in advance, but I have done everything i have read about not getting the AC to continually come on when i start the vehicle. Am I missing something? First world problem, but it really does bug me.
Never thought a truck could get such mpg!
Trying to maximize the life of the transmission I've noticed whenever I park and let off the brake the vehicle leans forward shifting the weight of the car on the transmission
I'm a cheap ass so I didn't want to drop $1300+ on a set of wheels. I got these Liquid Metal Halo wheels on sale from Discount Tire. $740 installed. My Baja Boss tires look great on them. Now a carwash. Really happy with how they turned out
I’ve got a 2026 Lariat Hybrid and filled it up myself for the first time about 102 miles ago, with roughly 45 of those miles being electric.
A couple days ago I noticed the fuel gauge was already down to around 3/4 tank, which seemed a little odd to me. For reference, I got about 485 miles out of the first full tank from the dealership. The truck had around 10 miles on it from test drives before I bought it, and they topped it off before delivery.
The fuel gauge itself I can probably explain away, but what’s really confusing me is the MTE. Right now it’s showing 277 miles, and over my last three ~10 mile trips it’s basically stayed locked at either 276 or 277. During a drive it might briefly drop to 276, then go right back to 277 and sit there.
Am I just overthinking this, and the truck is still “learning” my driving habits and recalculating range over time? Earlier on, right after I picked it up, the MTE showed around 525 miles on a full tank, and when I was nearly empty the MTE got down to around 55, so it does seem to adjust somewhat.
Just curious if anyone else noticed similar weirdness with the fuel gauge or MTE early on with their truck.
The tread pitch and angle is correct but they just look much smaller? Would yall roll with them?
Not gonna lie, all the electronics are taking some getting used to but theres a lot of cool features. Gas mileage is great as well. Just need to buy a few minor accessories and itll be even better. Oddly enough my biggest complaint is how tiny the cup holders are. lol
Pulled the trigger! Upgraded from a 2007 Corolla to a 24 Hybrid XL this week.
Swapped out that RC car antenna for a stubby antenna and added a roof spoiler to the truck. H&R lowering springs and aFe Rebel exhaust coming soon.
My son is already an owner and I’m really impressed. My only concern is towing my boat. I know already I need to upgrade to the 4k towing package. My boat weight total with trailer is between 2300 to 2500 lbs. depending on what I’m bringing. Looking for tips or advice as to model I should be looking at. Towing is not a regular event but I’ll be using it from time to time in the nicer weather. Thanks
2026 Hybrid AWD, noticed this sound after using remote start in the heat. Haven’t noticed if it does it when it’s colder out. Any ideas? Is this normal? Its VERY loud.
I recently posted about using unistrut versus L track as an alternative to the OEM cargo management system. I was planning to build something, but someone recommended the bedrails below. For $160 I figured it was with a shot. I’d spend that much making my own. I installed them this morning in my 2026 XLT hybrid, and they fit perfectly. It installs between the existing tie downs so you don’t have to remove them, comes with two moveable tie downs per side, as opposed to one with the OEM version, and they accept unistrut hardware. We’ll have to see how it holds up in a Maine winter, but so far I’m pretty impressed.

I have a 2022, 2.0L Ecoboost with 102k miles.
Recently, it began hesitating when accelerating from a stop. This is the only time it hesitates.
A few months ago, I added a Idle Start/Stop Eliminator. Has anyone else had the hesitation using an Idle Start/Stop Eliminator?
I'm spending more on gas cause I like the sound of the turbo whistling and blowing 😂🤣 turbo owners united!
Love these little trucks. Thing has some pep on its own, but throw it in sport mode she goes even better. The sound alone sold me instead of a hybrid.
Absolutely loving this little truck. All I want to do is drive!
I was curious, can anyone vouch for the fitment of 2025 parts for the 2026 model? I’m mainly wondering about things like lowering springs and exhaust systems. As, I see quite a few different options but almost none of them specify that they will work for the 2026. Is it really different from the 2025, or have these places just not updated their descriptions?
