    2021 Ram 5.7 etorque water pump replacement

    Check the internet for videos. I'd be surprised if there's nothing out there on replacing the water pump.

    Etorque Sensitivity

    That was just one of many videos that are out there. There are also Mopar videos out there which say basically the same thing but I wasn't able to find them in my quick search. You're free to search on your own if you don't like that one. I get what you're saying. I misunderstood what you...

    Why Ram Brought Back the V8 Engine

    Thanks for posting that but I didn't need a video to tell me Ram brought the Hemi back because they were losing their a$$es (because they dropped it in the first place). And of course MSNBC had to push the EV narrative at the end of a video titled "Why RAM Brought Back The V-8 Engine".

    Fly and Ship to Avoid Tariff?

    Audi dropped this as well. Two years ago were going to purchase a car from Audi, fly over to pick it up at the factory in Germany, and use it for a vacation through Europe instead of renting a car. Then ship it home. I've talked to people who have done this and I thought it sounded like a...

    rust spots around antennae

    Agreed, looks like rail dust.

    Etorque Sensitivity

    It’s not just after an auto start stop cycle. For instance, if you disable stop/start the etorque motor/generator adds torque when taking off from a stop. Disabling stop/start does not disable the other features of etorque.

    This video explains it pretty well if you have 6 minutes...

    Etorque Sensitivity

    Perhaps you mis-spoke. Etorque provides no torque on engine start but does add torque on take-off. There is a lot of misinformation that's thrown around in forums. I would encourage anyone who really wants to understand how the system works to search the web for any of the dozens of...

    Etorque Sensitivity

    The system does add torque for the first half turn of the wheels according to videos that were regularly circulated when 5th gens first came out with etorque.

    Slow Hemi :(

    I mean, you’re the one who mentioned people zooming by you at stop lights. Who said anything about street racing? Freeways here have 70 mph speed limits, and are heavily patrolled. I have no problem getting to those speeds with any of the vehicles we own except for an 89 Honda Prelude 2.0Si...

    Slow Hemi :(

    🤷‍♂️Just my opinion but racing from light to light is kind of pointless. Law enforcement comes down pretty hard on that sort of thing where I live. The juice just isn't worth the squeeze. Personally, I wasn't impressed with the SO hurricane when I test drove one. Maybe I just expected too...

    Anyone interested in this idea for your keys?

    :ROFLMAO: I’m wondering about the handcuff key. :unsure:

    Hemi Update - Ordering Open

    It's not about calling attention to myself. I couldn't care less about that. It's all about hearing what sounds good to me. I'm not driving race cars here lol.

    Hemi Update - Ordering Open

    You forgot to mention the 2004 thru 2006 Pontiac GTO which was actually a rebranded Holden Monaro. I owned one and I loved it, but I always felt a little ashamed of the GTO badging it had. My brother owned a ‘66 GTO and he hated my ‘04 lol.

    Hemi Update - Ordering Open

    Haha fair enough. I guess I earned that one. I don't know you and have no reason to single you out for anything. I'm guess I'm just tired of people asking why people do or don't like something. "Why don't you like MDS?" or "why do you disable stop/start" or "why would you remove the active...

    Hemi Update - Ordering Open

    I'm curious why anyone cares why another person prefers the things they prefer? For me it's about choice. I have no plans to buy another truck anytime soon, but I like seeing a manufacturer respond to customer demand. It's in their best interest to do so, but it's amazing to me how often they...

    Oil catch can

    It would be simple enough to make draining a catch can part of the maintenance routine. The majority of people don't even do their own oil changes, so really only those who do their own maintenance would be affected. But like you I don't see them adding catch cans anytime soon for the other...

    *INCREASED REBATES* on '26 Orders w/ MARK DODGE

    Good luck getting any answers on that.

    *INCREASED REBATES* on '26 Orders w/ MARK DODGE

    Sounds like you might want to step up to a 2500 if that's the case. 6.4 Hemi with no etorque is sounding pretty good to me. My biggest issue with that is they don't offer the MFT for HD's.
