    Do you like your MDS?

    Since he mentioned the behavior of his 2500 and he also referenced the 6.4l Hemi, I think it's safe to assume that he's still referring to the 2500. The more torque the engine has, the more effectively it can use MDS.

    Do you like your MDS?

    MDS/Eco also won't engage under engine braking. I've seen this with steep downgrades here in Colorado. The instant economy still shows 99 MPG, but 8 cylinders pumping offer more resistance than 4.

    What's with the oil catch cans?

    I think I'll survive. :LOL: I'll take my 2 OEM connections that could leak a vacuum and leave the 5 connections for a catch can install.

    What's with the oil catch cans?

    There's fuel constantly running through the intake. If you're using a high detergent fuel (like Top Tier), how's it going to crud up? Based on a video I watched on YouTube with a high mileage Hemi, 2 ounces was collected in 3000 miles. If you figure 18mpg over 3K miles, you're looking at...

    What's with the oil catch cans?

    A few ounces of oil that would be diluted by how many gallons of gas?

    Key Fob Not Detected.....but....it's in my pocket!

    I always keep my phone in a pocket dedicated to just the phone, so I've never encountered that. I did have a problem with 2 proximity keys in the same pocket from 2 different mfrs. (although never with my Ram). My Hyundai proximity key always worked. My Mercedes Benz would get confused and...

    Do you like your MDS?

    My experience tells me that eTorque keeps MDS engaged longer and smooths the transitions. I can't think of a way that they could have made MDS any better combined with eTorque.

    Thanks for the clarification. I thought I was losing my mind. Again. ;)

    Part in glove box? Part number 68361100AC plastic cover for tailgate removal

    Does anybody read the thread before reposting the same question for the 3rd time? Inquiring minds want to know.

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    I didn't accept any configurations that didn't have the 33 gallon tank. I wanted range comparable to my previous vehicle. You can always put 26 gallons in a 33 gallon tank, but you can't put 33 gallons in a 26 gallon tank. The $445 option is sooo worth it. I appreciate the level of effort...

    Bad fuel mileage 5.7 hemi

    Mine got better at the first oil change at under 5K.

    Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank

    When I was shopping for my truck in the US, the only options were 26 and 33. The 'Classic' 1500 had an option for 23.

    Air conditioning performance

    What? 53 pages didn't get them to fix it. I'm shocked. Shocked I tell ya'! :eek: :LOL:

    Slight vibration

    Sounds like a problem with the ATMMs. They should cancel the vibration when MDS is active.

    What Fuel is everyone using?

    Yeah, we've discussed the crap out of that in what's likely multiple threads on the subject. With Costco you can usually get Premium at Mid-grade prices. My Costco has 85 Regular and 91 Premium. The "...can't find any "TOP TIER" FUEL" comment doesn't seem to be aimed specifically at 89 octane.

    What Fuel is everyone using?

    Costco being mentioned here is Top Tier. It shouldn't be difficult to find, unless you're living in the sticks. https://www.toptiergas.com/licensed-brands/

    Cabin Filter

    I had mine replaced at less than 5K. It was way dirtier than I expected. We have this fine grey dust here that seems to be everywhere.

    Mopar Ram airflow kit

    I seem to recall that when they announced it at SEMA they were claiming something like a 10 HP increase. I don't think I imagined that.

    Bad fuel mileage 5.7 hemi

    Heading into Winter gas formulations again. I'm sure there will be more folks with new trucks complaining about MPG soon.

    Would be interesting to see before and after dyno details.
