I'll chime in as i've had the opportunity to tow our 6000lbs camper a few times with my 2020 Limited this year.
Towing a 6000lb boat vs a camper is NOT the same thing, not even close, they weight the same and that's where it ends. A camper is a giant box, you are pushing a ton more wind and...
Ok, so I had sent my stock files to Jay yesterday morning, i had tunes in my email by 10pm last night. I got the PCM and TCM tunes loaded into the vehicle a little bit ago and went for a drive. Very very smooth, the trans (TCM) tune is much better than stock. Truck feels a lot quicker, so I...
Don’t think I’ll actually do dyno’s this time to compare but will give you my impressions at least. I paid for a PCM and Trans tune as well.
I have a feeling FCA left a lot on the table for both.
Sure enough, Uconnect was back to normal this morning, what a stupid system though.
I flashed everything this morning with the 87 Diablo tune and a perf trans tune. Sent all the files off to Jay @ Greene, he confirmed within a few minutes he got them. So we will see when the new tunes show up!
Well looks like this happens to Uconnect whenever you disconnect the battery, so that's fun. I will check in the morning and see if my options are back. Stupid you can't reset it

Received the i3 and unlocked PCM today.
Couldn't get a 87 tune loaded at first, so did a modified stock tune. Got that loaded finally and was able to get the truck started. Just took the stock tune and disabled MDS and auto start/stop.
However Uconnect is all messed up and missing all my...
I3 should be here tomorrow and then I’ll work with Jay. Should be interesting to feel the results.
Hoping a side effect is improved gas mileage (when I’m not beating on it) as the e-torque has been terrible with about 16.5 mpg at 75mph.
I chatted with Jay a bunch on Facebook last night. Sean replied to me email this morning.
I’m waiting on my I3 to get shipped and then I will probably work with Jay. Just liked his interaction more at this point.
Did you ever get a tune from either?
I just ordered a i3+PCM and have been chatting with Jay, he's been VERY quick to respond. Planning on working with him later this week.
If you look at Fuelly the avg with etorque is about 16mpg..
Go back a couple years and it’s 18-19 solid.
So it’s pretty clear the new gen is much worse.
Here is just etorque:
For RAM you mean apparently?
Seeing as everyone can do it just fine. Granted they are slightly smaller V8’s but still getting 20mpg easy.
Hell I’d be happy with 18, but 16? My 6.2L Raptor could do 15 on the highway. That’s a heavier truck, 35” tires and lifted.
So if a 6000lb 6.2L Raptor...
It’s clearly e-torque for the most part so a new ECU flash I’m sure would handle it just fine. FCA might not care though.
So maybe I’ll look into an aftermarket tune personally.
My loaded Limited e-torque is getting 17mpg doing 75mph, it’s terrible. 12ish around town.
I owned 3 F150’s and they all got better. My last 2018 King Ranch got 20-22mpg doing 80mph.
Bought the RAM for the interior but the mileage is horrible.
Yes it’s a truck but there is absolutely no...
I thought the Borla S-type droned bad for sure on my 2020, one of the things i didn't like. I'm not stranger to loud exhausts, i have them on everything and my motorcycles.
