    New ZF transmissions on the horizon?

    It is a very interesting time... I posted this another place after research and a similar question... I'm a gas guy also... Speaking to the 6.4 hemi and any new gas ICE (internal combustion engine) version like a souped up six banger or adapted Cummins 6.7, who knows? ZF can't sit on their...

    Ram better come out with a a FULL fifth gen HD soon

    Ram can't sell trucks right now. Now everyone is sucking for air, but Ram seems to be the hardest hit. You want a 1500, they will practically give it to you but then the interest rates will eat you alive representing a couple hundred bucks more than two years ago with 2.5 times the interest...

    Best deals Ram 3500 Hemis

    I do searches on Cargurus just for the heck of it around various Hemi Builds. I looked at Ram 3500's Hemi's to see what was out there. IF you are doing searches, I recommend doing this. One is pull up the monroney by VIN number. You can do that here...

    Overlanding budget options

    Well, sort of looking over overlanding approaches including a hard shell tent but then see that unless you spend a fortune for a closed up shell on the back that you can put the tent on, you are going to have to leave the bed wide open with all your stuff in the bed for people to oogle and...

    Leveling kits on 6.4 Hemis

    I'm considering this and was leaning toward Carli over Thuren with the coil springs and fox shocks and trackbar but then I'm like reading the Carli stuff and it seems so diesel focused that is almost seems like they don't even necessarily recommend it for anything other. Anyone with any...

    Any rumors on January Incentives for 22 trucks?

    I've been looking and have done this in previous years. Ram is really pushing incentives of various types on 22 1500's... I am looking at a 22 Hemi Longhorn that I have already gotten down from MSRP 85,600 to around 77K. I want more... It's been sitting on the lot since June as in that...

    Best "VALUE" 2500 in US at this moment (Hemi)

    I looked at this as far back as March but ended up buying one closer to me in a Laramie with a similar feature set in Idaho. It is a pretty well set up for towing (Tech/tow Package) Big Horn This has been on their lot since like January and I believe was built in December 2021 or earlier. I'm...

    Towing Roar Uphill

    Anyone else notice this...feature? This only happens when I'm going up a mountain/steep grade and only at a certain point. It may be the fan, I do not see any particular stresses occurring per the guages but at a certain point, as the grade goes up I get this "roar" that continues until you...

    Price on mine up $5,505 MSRP since early March

    I had been watching pricing since around November before pulling the trigger in early March. I just "built" mine again on the Ram website and it is up xxxxx. Mine in early March was MSRP'd at 63,600. The same unit built on the Ram site now is $69105...

    Hellcat Oil pump addressing Hemi tick lifter issues low idle problem

    This guy with an 11 year background as a high level tech having gone to their "University" thinks he has figured it out. It's not pressure as such that is the problem, but VOLUME at low pressure that is a primary cause. This is the video that explains his thesis, watch at 10 minutes to cut to...

    Console/5 passenger trend

    Being retired, and having too much time on my hands, I look at least every couple of days and have done so for a couple of years starting with 1500's. After getting a console model in my 2015, it became a requirement for me. Back in 2013 my first 1500 quad cab 3.55, 5.7, I had the bench seats...

    Dealer "Lot" Orders for 10 getting priority???

    I decided to NOT order one after reading the thread here on orders and pricing. So, being retired, I was willing to drive to pick one up. I found two dealers with 2500's I was wanting and noted they had a bunch with identical trims and items. In speaking with both dealers about potential deals I...

    Auto Ranch Ontario Oregon Great Dealership

    This dealership is awesome. NO BS, down to earth, price you see online (MSRP) less 1,000 is what you get. Sales/Finance manager is NOT a high pressure dude. Sales guy was knowledeable but not intrusive. They also do better than others on trade in by a couple K vs KBB and give you 1K if you trade...
