It took indifference on Management's part to allow this to happen. Management that cared about the future of the car would have dismissed the excuses and told the team to find a solution. |

I don't have many miles on mine and I haven't hard warm weather since buying the car 2 months ago, so I don't have a real opinion yet. At face value I'd take them as an adequate summer performance tire? |

Hybrids are pretty awesome IMO. It's a nice middle ground till full EV adoption. I'd, honestly, prefer to buy a hybrid Camaro over a full EV just to get that great exhaust note from my V8 ICE. A win-win IMO till the infrastructure catches up to EVs, which could take years, if not decades.

But that's the beauty of it, the benefit of not being tied to charging infrastructure. Gas and go with the benefit of EV power delivery. As a truck owner that requires long distances covered in a single day, there isn't an EV that can accomplish this task currently, except this RAM.

Fall for what marketing? It's a solution that NOBODY else offers right now. A truck that can be used in full EV mode for 90% of day to day driving, but still allows you to travel or pull a trailer as far as you want without the range anxiety of an EV. Just stop and get gas...then go 5 minutes later. For larger SUVs and Trucks, hybrids are the best solution we have to drastically reduce emissions in these types of vehicles, without the "baggage" of owning an large EV SUV or truck.

Decided I didn't want to continue beating me and my new car up, bit the bullet and replaced the run flats (at 7500 miles). My only regret is not doing it sooner. The car is softer, better isolated (a massively amount better isolated) with no loss in handling. I used to come home from a day out having fun beat up and tired. Not anymore. YMMV |
