I sure have bought a lot of RAMs for a self-professed Chevy guy.

Well, two RAMs.  And a self-professed Chevy guy in high school, which was decades ago, but in my head I still think "Oh, I'm a Chevy guy" despite not knowing anything about brand distinctives as I (thought I) did in school. 

you're a Chevy guy

Got a new truck over the holidays.  After 17 years with the last car, it was just time. 

This thing has something called eTorque which I don't understand, need to read about it, but I gather it has something to do how the RPMs mysteriously go to 0 when I come to a full stop.  Can't hear the engine when I stop, either.  I don't mind telling you, I don't understand how a truck is running if the RPMs are 0 and I can't hear the engine.

Took a little getting used to, because the acceleration is not immediately there when my foot moves from the brake to the acceleration pedal.  It takes a split second for the engine to come back "on" and then the gas pedal means something. 

Well after ~4 years of driving it I think Dad's Chevrolet has a bad transmission.  I took it over around '21, drove it off/on for a bit and then started driving it permanently around the end of the year.  Had about ~30K on it when I started, sitting at about 110K now.  It's overall been a good truck, had to fix the A/C and radiator this last summer, dropped about $4K combined on that.  Radio has been flaky for awhile.  I can't sell it, because it's Dad's truck and there's too many complications, so I'm giving it back to Mom and let Brother 1 and 2 fight it out over it.
