I don't like the sun visors. They are too short when turned to the side window. That was one thing I liked about the Ram when I was shopping. Chrysler visors have a sliding mechanism. My F150 has about a 6" gap and it always seems that the sun is coming right through it. Storage is also not very good compared to the Ram. Otherwise love it.

The headrests angle forward too much. I have to tilt the seat back more than normal to get into a comfortable position.

I believe you must do the same thing for the passenger seat.

The light does go out but takes a few minutes, This procedure is in the manual that is supplied with your vehicle. this is how i found out how to disarm it. sorry if the procedure i told is wrong, but i just did it a few days ago and am pretty sure that its right. any doubts check the manual, thats what its for.

Turn signal arm is at the 10:30 position, but I would like it at around the 9-9:30 position. Also would like the hi/low beam to be a toggle and not a push for high beam and pull for low.
I also agree with the gripe on the headrests. I'm 6'3" and neither the high or low position on the head rest works very well for me.
Other than that, the truck as been great!
