Hello, all. I just purchased a beautiful 2022 Ram 1500 Longhorn limited edition with the 5.7 hemi and absolutely love it. Besides the fact that it has MDS. That worries me, as most “eco” features ironically suck the life out of the vehicles. Besides running in tow/haul mode or in 8th gear all the time to avoid activating eco mode, is there ANY way to deactivate it via coding? Or any must do recommendations? I used to have a Benz and with a data link cable and a laptop I had someone remotely code the car to activate some cool things but also deactivate eco mode. Sorry if all these questions have been answered in other posts but I’m so new to this truck I’d rather just start here.

no, a tune would be required.
I thought I either read or watched something about deactivating it, but I'm new here as well so my knowledge is minimal.
I'm sure ramhouston knows more than I do. I could've watched and heard what I wanted to hear which happens sometimes.
I typically save stuff like that so I'll check and see just in case...
Maybe it's just 2019 models that this works on? go to 2:10 ish and he does exactly what I thought I heard.
Correct me if I'm wrong I don't want to give out bad information.

that exhaust system fits 2019-2024. nothing changed between those years.
I don't think you understood me or I don't understand you???? I have no clue and it doesn't matter what is which.
What did you hear at 2:10 ish? Anything about turning off the MDS? That was the only point I was working with.
He talks about how to do it. Whether it's correct I don't know so I was ask you that question. I guess I could try on mine...

this is what he was talking about in the video...
I'm doing my best to help with this. I have no idea at all and I've made myself clear that I don't know.
You are asking me the same questions that I've been asking. Someone asked about turning MDS off I came up with information I heard.
Pressing a certain sequence of buttons turn the tow/haul on and off?
Seems odd to me and I don't care anymore. I wont make this mistake again
