The NEW 5.7L HEMI with eTorque

[devildodge]

I am not sure, correct me if I am wrong, but no one has driven one outside of FCA correct. None of the reviewers got one and I think very few were ever even displayed, if any.

I am very interested to see what and how it improves the time tested 5.7l Hemi.

I however am probably going to wait to see the HDs and see what else the Rebel sub brand will offer before I commit...but if a Rebel shows up on a lot near me, even without the 6'4" bed being offered on the crew...it will be hard not to jump in and screw waiting.

We have one member who has a ship date of 5/31 and I think he has eTorque.

Keep us posted on the eTorque, guys. I chickened out on it fearing it's complexity. Going for the air suspension was difficult enough on me lol. Hope they serve everyone well!

I have the air suspension on my 2015 and it is one of the best features of my truck. The ride is incredible. No way I would get the 2019 without it!

Good to hear, hopefully we will get to see some E-Torque reviews soon.

Very good news, as my dealer wasn't overly thrilled that I wanted to wait to drive an E-torque before ordering a standard Hemi or buying one of theirs. Told them I'd be kicking myself in the *** terribly if the E-T is the real deal, but again, it may just be a gimmick, used mainly for start-stop.

They did a quick nationwide search and there no E-T trucks on the lots in the nation and they b.s'd me that their rep said it may be into 2019 before they are in production, as Ram is #3 in the world and has the opportunity to be #1 and they won't put out anything that isn't perfect...

I have confirmation within the plant they were not building any etorque trucks yet. As of yesterday.

That was me. They still have a ship date of 31 May. Odd thing though, last week I was told it was in D1 status and today they tell me it is in D. They can regress!?!?

No, I dont believe so. If you talking to the online chat a lot of the times they go off of old notes instead of getting a new actual update. I normally with the online chat say something like, "Please give me an update once case number or vin # *******. Please dont read the case notes and provide me with an actual new updated status. Thanks!" '

That seems to work because I was getting codes that where regressed until I called them out on it and they apologized and went on and got me an updated code.
