As others have said, most impressive! It is refreshing to see positive posts.
My thoughts on your questions are that out of warranty costs for air suspension would be expensive and my understanding is that E-Torque is still somewhat buggy and would most likely be worthless for a towing truck.
Not to beat an already dead horse but I agree with others this is a one time TRX deal.
However who knows. Maybe they will offer a TRX shifter in an add-on package.
For me, the rotary shifter is the way to go.
I would recommend adding your truck details to your signature and your location in your profile. Helps with others being able to answer questions or make recommendations.
Totally agree with this or offer the 475 HP/TQ 6.4 in the 1500 series.
I suspect their new inline 6 turbo is going to be the high end model though. It would be easier and most likely more reliable to get 450 out of that than to extend the 5.7 to 450....and it will get better EPA rated MPG...
Like has been said, I get the nudge of the wheel and visible use in the gauge cluster.
It is not as intrusive as other makes/models. Some like that and others do not. I do wish the settings for it made a noticeable change. Even on the highest setting it does not move the wheel enough.
I'll add that this system is definitely on the side of caution. It goes off on any reflection or possibility of oncoming light source....so I rarely ever use it.
Truth is I rarely need the bright lights at all.
Why would someone lie about this? It's not like they work for Ram. :confused:
Those of us that read the forums know that a certain amount do have issues....but that does not mean it is a majority.
For the record mine has been working great since I picked it up on 11/2/2019 as far as any lag...
Can we assume the 3.92 is around 200 rpm ahead of the 3.21 from a start to whatever you reach? If so, it should be fairly easy to figure out with a dyno graph....
Another way to know I would suspect is to compare your RPMs at a certain speed. Like post your RPMs at 70 MPH and I am sure people will let you know very quickly.
Yep....but still no evidence other then personal experience. We may never know as Ram is not going to give those details and no one is going to do a scientific comparison.
What I do know just as you is my personal experience. And my truck has no problems going into ECO mode with up to e15 fuel.
Again I see your logic. However for this to be true it would be based off fuel flow solely or in addition to octane.
My point is no matter the fuel mixture the power of the engine is the same as long as the octane is the same. So ECO mode may be unaffected by the mixture.
I do not know...
^^ Glass half empty response for sure....
Glass half full would say they now have a TSB for it.
I do agree they should be more willing to fix this as the Winter months will certainly never show the issues. I suspect this next Summer will be quite busy with the fixes.
So I am totally agreeing with the energy analysis you are saying.
However, ECO mode de-activates cylinders correct? If it is nothing more than that then any combination of fuel that makes the octane needed would be identical to ECO mode.
Now if ECO mode also monitors fuel flow then I can see...
Correct.
Which should have nothing to do with ECO mode. The engine should produce the same HP/TQ no matter the content mix of the fuel as long as it is the correct octane.
