    Gooseneck vs Bumper Pull

    A gooseneck is the superior towing option if you have the ability to get into one. I’d rather buy a used gooseneck than a brand new bumper pull, especially if you’re going to be pulling anything remotely heavy. It’s a better towing experience all around. If you don’t need to keep the bed open...

    Aisin shifts FAST, just doesn't feel "normal"

    Troll is a fairly generous moniker, even.

    Aisin shifts FAST, just doesn't feel "normal"

    There is a fairly significant chasm that exists between “hot rod” and “command an upshift at 1300rpm while traveling uphill”. I’m more than happy to live somewhere in there.

    Keep Gear Indicator on Always?

    Which devices are you using? They certainly are not all created equal.

    Safety Recall ZA3 - Transmission Dipstick ** UPDATED INFO IN 1ST POST **

    Hopefully your local dealer is staffed with someone competent in the service department. Mine wouldn’t sell me the parts, and wouldn’t perform the recall because it had been marked as complete, even though my truck still had that idiotic 15” dipstick plug. It was a great experience overall...

    Safety Recall ZA3 - Transmission Dipstick ** UPDATED INFO IN 1ST POST **

    My locking dipstick came with a new tube & grommet. Took about 8 minutes to make the swap.

    Also works with JScan…

    Aisin shifts FAST, just doesn't feel "normal"

    Factory ram transmission calibrations leave something to be desired, to say the least. Never understood chasing fuel economy numbers on trucks weighing 8,000 pounds. Trans tune is the answer.

    Automatic Regen too often

    The only way it’s making soot is by burning off. That’s gonna be a problem with any grade you decide to run. Lol

    Telescoping steering wheel?

    Humans definitely come in odd shapes and sizes. I thought me being a goofy ass giraffe who is 6’ tall, with only a 31” inseam, would make me the hard one to fit vehicle controls to

    Automatic Regen too often

    15w40 has exactly nothing to do with soot output of the engine. It’s the “wrong” spec oil, but it doesn’t affect soot levels at all. Unless the engine is horribly overfilled.

    Looking for wheel/tire advice

    240 a tire is a smokin deal. That setup looks real nice.

    Diesel "feel"

    Monitor boost level when you’re experiencing it. I wager it’s when the engine is trying to lug a gear it shouldn’t, and boost is jumping around as a result.

    Height of 2500 with Power Wagon package or Warlock

    No matter what anyone tells you, it would behoove you to measure the truck you are purchasing, if fitting it is a concern.

    Lifter Failure? Report it here!

    Its name brand swamp water. I don’t even run it in my tractor any longer.

    Lifter Failure? Report it here!

    Couldn’t pay me to run rotella, warranty or no warranty.

    Rebel 2500 cummins on-road ride as compared to Laramie/Limited (or NON PW models)?

    I run 50/45 on my empty rig. Anything higher is just excessive.

    Add me to the Archoil 6400d believers

    You are severely over estimating the competency of someone whose skill set has led them to the gas station service industry.

    Rough Country E Power boards

    A co-worker of mine has them on his Sierra. It was typical rough country (lack of) quality, and there was quite a bit of back & fourth to get them functioning as intended. They look nice I guess, but I’d have absolutely just returned them for the 2 weeks of hassle it took.

    Rebel 2500 cummins on-road ride as compared to Laramie/Limited (or NON PW models)?

    That is actually insane on a pickup. Probably rode like it had granite wheels from the Stone Age.
