    5.7 HEMI with eTorque... Worth it?

    Comor me on the mixed feelings On the one hand in traffic I loved it, Until summer kicked in (Live in Houston), and I rather burn fuel sitting and keep my AC going than not, so for the next 5-6 months its going to be deactivated everytime I get in, But when it's nice out I don't mind it...

    I know it's simple math ... But gotta like the range

    Ram Truck Sales Up 56% In June, Handily Beats Silverado:

    I don't get how they could possibly blame "ramping up capacity." There is no shortage of 2019 Chevy and GMC on the lots here

    Bad fuel mileage 5.7 hemi

    Think my truck is breaking in finally, I drive at minimum 904 miles a month just running back and forth to work and that's all highway/freeway between Houston and Corpus, it's not too far off what my 4.10 geared F150 Tremor was.
