Hello, I to was a Chrysler Corporation mechanic for over 30 years. I love watching your videos. You're very professional, clear on your instructions, a pleasure to watch. I must say thou I'm happy to be retired and not have to earn a living turning tools for a paycheck anymore. I do miss not rebuilding transmissions anymore, something I really enjoyed. Keep up the good work and have a good day.

I've heard similar comments from others regarding this issue too. At least Chrysler knew this shortcoming and did build in a remedy. My dealer sure never told me about it.

Thank you!! Just bought a 2014 Ram 1500 with the 8 speed/knob shifter. I always change my oil on ramps, then push the vehicle down in neutral to level, to fill it so I don't get a bogus reading. I thought I was going to have to start jacking it up, but this video gave me the answer. Great tip/secret hack. My truck doesn't have the owner's manual with it, so I would've never known about that.

Pulled up to an intersection in my F550 and one of these trucks pulling a trailer lost its transmission. I pulled up in front of them while I was getting chains hooked up, they found this video to get it out of park. Dragged them into a parking lot and made sure they had things figured out on what to do. I'm sure that they were thankful for your video.

1 - More electronic shit WE DON'T NEED 2 - The gear selector dial is in the same place as the transfer case dial on the F-150. Excellent choice, Dodge. This Ford owner accidentally moved the dial to PARK while moving when attempting to disengage 4WD. The good news is the electronics are smart enough to prevent me from buggering the transmission. I do like the newer Dodges and the 8 speed tranny works well. However I'd much prefer the gear stick be a lever.

I am about to purchase a used (new to me) 2017 Ram 1500 Laramie Crew Cab with the 8-speed transmission that has the dial selector. This will definitely be a big help because I am not the most patient person and would probably end up breaking something to try and get it out of park.

Great vid. Anyone who has ever operated a tow truck would appreciate this. Retrieving a vehicle backed into a stall with insufficient side clearance to other parked vehicles as an example. The override allows picking the vehicle up from the front and moving it far enough to load the rear wheels on to dollies. All this accomplished without having to crawl under the vehicle to remove linkage in sub zero or rainy areas. Good on MoPar for enginerring this feature and good on you for sharing this on your channel. Eenjoy your Summer in Georgia.. Best to you and yours.

Hopefully it never comes to it but learning about the features of your truck is what this is all about. Most wrecker drivers don’t know this and end up dragging it up on the roll back with the truck still in park.Thanks for watching and make sure to subscribe

I was driving one of these last month while my truck was in the body shop. Not a fan of all these electronic transmissions. That rotary knob takes some getting used to. I still prefer a column shifter or a manual.

I can understand. I only have it in my wifes Durango but all the cars we work on all day do have it. I have gotten use to it. To be honest....how many times do we really shift an automatic......3 maybe 4 times each time we drive it maybe. I personally like something to put me hands on while I'm driving a car.....in a truck it makes no real difference to me personally. Its different....I will give you that lol

On my 2019 the parking brake is electric. So how do I apply the parking brake to get to the override to put the vehicle in neutral? And maybe you can tell me how to override the damn parking break that wants to apply itself anytime I try to move the truck with the door open. Remember being able to open the door and back up? Call me old school but this nanny system is too much.
