Lol, it took my wife two weeks to realize the truck had exhaust on it. LMAO. all she could say when it was idling was, it sounds like a boat. hahaha

I had a Jensen in-dash in my truck for a minute. It was a pile. buttons quit working, wouldnt pop out have the time just a pain. When it worked, it worked fine, Iw as just scared to jack with it because I didnt know if it was going to work or not.

Just an fyi, the car seat shouldn't go in the middle on the rams, the cutout in the middle doesn't support the car seat all the way on the bottom, and there are no anchors for the middle part, just on the sides behind the front seats (and you can't just use the two inside ones, it would put too much stress on the sides of the child seat frame in the case of an accident). I know this sucks, because when they face backwards, your only option is to slide the passenger seat way forward, luckily my youngest just moved into a forward facing and life is good again.

I have 2 kids myself and here in FL I got the dvd player with the screen that attaches to the back of the headrest. The reason I got that is FL law says if you have some sort of tv/dvd player in your vehicle the driver CANNOT be able to see the screen. They insist it's a distraction and WILL give you a heafty ticket for it. The screens are bigger on the headrest ones anyways. By the way....load up on spongebob dvd's while you still have the money. hahahaha

I was biting my tongue from saying that, but it is very true. The backwards facing carseats are too long to fit properly in the middle position. It's not a matter of opinion, it's a fact.

From my experience with two kids, you'll want to put the baby in the passenger's side rear. Buckle it in tight!!!!!!! Then push the passenger's side seat into the car seat to hold it even tighter. I think you need to stop worrying about the truck for a while, your baby is gonna cost you more than you think!!!!!!!! Just enjoy the new addition.
