Which is the best 1/2 ton work Truck on Youtube- Ford Vs Chevy Vs Dodge Ram
What happens here
The driver of the Ram, initially concerned about the rotary shifter, attempts to 'throw it into reverse' while driving forward, but the truck's safety features prevent this. It indicates that the 'vehicle speed is too high to shift to R.' The same test is done for 'park' while driving, resulting in the message 'too high to shift to P.' This demonstrates that the shifter has built-in safeguards to prevent accidental engagement of inappropriate gears while in motion, automatically flashing the gear selected until the vehicle slows down or stops. The 4WD system on the Ram is activated with a push-button, allowing for on-the-fly shifting from 2WD to 4WD auto or lock, but not 4WD low (which requires stopping).
Goal: Test the shifter's safety features and the 4WD system.
