Radio station switch
A funny thing happened on my way to the dealer to get a bed liner put in yesterday. I was driving down the highway listening to the game on AM and all of a sudden the station on the radio changed all by itself! I thought someone on the control booth hit the wrong button until I looked at the radio and noticed the station number changed. This happened twice in about 4-5 min. Anyone else have this happen or am I reliving the 60's? If this is the worst I can come up with I still am lovin' my 350. This truck rocks!!

There seems to be an Alien spacecraft flying around the country doing that, it has been reported in many areas…. found out (CNN of course) that is it was a bunch of teenage aliens, go figure kids having fun…. better than the bag of alien stuff on fire on your porch

Seemed to switch to "all Elvis" stations......Come to think of it I did glimpse a flying sparkley rhinestone guitar shaped craft off to the west. Elvis must still be "in the building"

It is weird that yours did that, honestly could not figure out how or why it would either.
I have never heard or read of it before.

Well he is in Ohio's highest point, makes it that much easier for the aliens to do things like that.....they may be trying to make him afriad of his truck so they can take it for their own....might get some tin foil and wrap your radio so they cant do that any more.....but be careful....if you do that and make them madd you could be next....lol.

Probably doesn't relate to this but on my SUV with steering wheel controls I was having the same problem until I realized that it always seemed to happen when making turns or maneuvering in a parking lot. I was using one hand to turn by placing palm on steering wheel. As I would rotate steering wheel edge of hand would brush switch. Doesn't take much pressure to change station. Now place hand in different location and problem solved.
