    EOT's and ECT's....

    Thanx, and no worries, maybe it's just not that big of a deal in the Ram world lol. My new Cummins seems to run higher empty oil temps then my old powerstroke, by around 10°

    Do I need a bigger drop shank...

    I keep looking at the gen y setup and I may just have to go get one, I love the idea of the torsion springs to help soften the harshness of our beautiful NYS roads lol

    2019 6.7 68rfe Bully Dog

    I'm kinda curious too, I have one that I removed from my powerstroke when I traded it in on my new 2500, but I'm scared to death that installing it will screw with my warranty...... I used the tow tune 99% of the time and it was a nice noticable difference in power and economy. I did hit the...

    Do I need a bigger drop shank...

    Pulled our toy hauler out of storage a few days ago to get ready for camping season, and when hooked to the new tow pig the camper appears to be completely level before adding air or putting my WD bars on, the camper did squat the coils about 2 inches which pleasantly surprised me. The camper is...

    EOT's and ECT's....

    I watched them like a hawk in my old 6.0 powerstroke. The differences on my Ford when not towing were typically less than 12° between the two, but could vary 30° when towing, oil temps would tickle 240° on long grades, coolant would max out around 225°, but would drop like a stone once the climb...

So I picked this up today and OMG is it nice so smooth and drives so effortlessly.... 21 off-road sport with the Cummins...

    I've got a local dealer bringing me in a l lower mileage 19 3500 SRW SO Cummins, should be able to test drive it today..... We'll see, I'm still not entirely convinced I need a diesel for my scenario but this one's in my budget....

    2019 3500 Cummins questions..

    thank you both! is there an easy way to tell if the recall has been taken care of.... i'm assuming it affects all 19 and 20 models?

    2019 3500 Cummins questions..

    howdy all...my local dealer is bringing in a 2019 3500 CCSB SRW for me with 40k miles to check out. I know there are complaints about the fuel pump, are they that bad... should i run lol, is there anything i should specifically look at or check out before possibly pulling the trigger, it's got...

    I plan on buying something in the next couple of months.... And I'm willing to travel some, I'd drive 6-8 hours for the right deal/truck

    Yeah I don't feel I need the Cummins, but I definitely won't turn my back on one if the price is right This was my toy hauler back in the day, 92 E150 with the ol 351 in it lol

    Help a new wanna be Ram owner out please...

    I haven't had any major issues with my 6.0, I've had to replace injector O rings and a few injectors other than that it's been pretty trouble free, has never left me stranded.... Can complain about it at all

    Help a new wanna be Ram owner out please...

    That's a terrible tow rating... You have the power wagon or what.... Why so low? If I go ¾ ton it's absolutely gonna be a gasser so I don't completely blow through the payload rating lol (any 5er toy hauler we've looked at has been 2800-3100lb pin weight and 17k gvwr) But I'm really hoping to...

    Help a new wanna be Ram owner out please...

    No exhaust brake on my 6.0, but the trans does a great job grade shifting in tow/haul mode..... one good thing with us running with a toy hauler is i can really move weight around to help with pin/tongue weight and that's the main reason i'm still even remotely considering a 3/4 ton.....

    Help a new wanna be Ram owner out please...

    I have absolutely considered the new 7.3 and the new powerstrokes, but this is a Ram forum and i'm not looking for pissing matches lol.... but like i said in my original post i really like the Ram interiors and the Rams seem to be much more plentiful around me

    Help a new wanna be Ram owner out please...

    Yeah sorry for being aimless, but that's kinda where I'm at too, every time I think I know I second guess myself lol.... I agree, I keep getting drawn back to the diesel segment, but the new diesels kinda scare me with all the computer controlled crap and they're nearly impossible for someone...
