    2026 HEMI or Hurricane?

    I can't see a I4 or V6 in a truck..maybe an in-line diesel. I've owned numerous trucks 1/2 & 3/4 tons all with V8's. This is my first Ram V8 and while I'm not wild about the e-Torque I think its' superior to the 2020 F150 5.0 I traded. The Ford had cam phaser issues at 32K, repaired under...

    Ram CEO Claims That 1500 Customers Prefer the HEMI V8 Over the Hurricane I6

    the only thing it says is that some people want a V8 in their truck & those engines are tried and true. A V6 or 4cyl truck engine with turbos don't appeal to some truck owners - and it's a truck.

    Ram CEO Claims That 1500 Customers Prefer the HEMI V8 Over the Hurricane I6

    Well, the reliability of the Ford & GM trucks speak for themselves. Valvetrain issues, cam phaser failures & 10 speed transmissions that slip & slide like the Powerglide transmissions of yesteryear. All they make is junk and refuse to stand behind their vehicle, so if you have one of those...

    Ram CEO Claims That 1500 Customers Prefer the HEMI V8 Over the Hurricane I6

    I can tell you, in my case I did the research after coming off of a new 2013 F150 5.0 V8 and made a major mistake raplacing it with a 2020 F150 5.0. The '13 was bulletproof and got good mileage. The '20 got just as good mileage but at 35K Ford was in the engine replacing the cam phasers, timing...

    Ram CEO Claims That 1500 Customers Prefer the HEMI V8 Over the Hurricane I6

    I can tell you that CARB (the invention of failed policies in California) is a joke. This is the same agency that MANDATED the NOX device for vehicle way-back in the day. I had a Pontiac Catalina 400 V8 which got consistent 17mpg combo driving (if you kept your foot out of it). As soon as that...

    5W-20 VS 0W-20...?

    There is a lot of discussion about oil brands and which weight oil is the best. I've done a lot of research particularly regarding the oil weight and it's all pretty confusing. What I can tell you is that with all the valvetrain & cam phaser (particularly on the Ford Coyote engine) issues there...

    Ram CEO Claims That 1500 Customers Prefer the HEMI V8 Over the Hurricane I6

    True...but, this emissions business has gone way too far and CARB is a Commiefornia concept and NOTHING worth having comes from Cali's AQMD or CARB it's the tail wagging the dog. Remember that the Big 3 had perfected small block V8 that got pretty good mileage. Then Cali came along with the...

    2026 HEMI or Hurricane?

    I doubt that the Hemi/Hurricane debate will be settled soon...this is about EPA garbage,thus e-Torque appears. My 2026 Hemi with it isn't getting the same mileage I got with a 2020 F150 Supercrew 4x4 5.0. But that Ford has issues of its own, slippery 10spd trans & cam phaser issues at 30K, so...

    Jumped in here to get more info about the Ram trucks. I've had Titans, Chevys and more recently 2013 & 2020 Ford F150 Super Crew 4x4 5.0's. In 2020 the tech at Ford told me to stick with the 2013 because the new 10spd trans was problematic. I didn't listen. That 10spd shifted like my old '62...
