Lots of people comment on the amount of shifting these trucks do with the Pentastar engine. I think the 8 spd ZF transmission is part of what makes them so nice. The space between the upper gears is small so there isn't a giant increase in RPMs between gears. Mine has the 3.55 rearend because...

I have copied below my Post from the Ecodiesel forum regarding a tow I did with my Pentastar Today I did a 320 mile round trip with my new 2020 Ram Longhorn with a PEntastar engine. 1000 miles on truck when I started and Blizzak snow tires all around. Half was with an empty tandem trailer that...

So far I am averaging just over 21 mpg with my Northern Wisconsin wintertime driving in my 4x4 3.55 Longhorn Pentastar. Just over 2000 miles on it now. Very happy with the engine/transmission combo. Most of my driving is 50-60 mph on 55mph speed limit rural highways. I do have Blizzaks on it...

yes he did but his subsequent call and my later post says none of the newer trucks have it.

I got a return call from the U-connect fellow and the news is not good. He said the initial 12" systems had the trip computer and it had some problems. He claimed they tried to fix it with no luck and decided to abandon the trip computer for the 12" display. We had a long discussion and he...

a short update. After a long painful process I will not get into today I finally talked to someone knowledgeable at U-connect. We could actually communicate, he understood what I was saying, Iwas able to send him emails with pictures of my screen as I posted above. He confirmed that all the...

Well the Customer care folks called this morning as they promised. Unfortunately the lady that called couldn't help with the roblem. She just wanted to 1-be sure she understood the problem, 2-confirm I should have a trip computer that works on my system and 3-pass this onto an expert once she...

Today I got an email from FCA saying it is best to deal with this on the phone to resolve the issue and they asked for a time and date this week and they would call me. I am expecting their call about 1000CST Tuesday. WE'll see what they say.

Thanks for all the replies. In summary it confirms that at least on the 2019s it was there on the 12" system and that the procedure from the manual is how those of you that have used it are getting there so it seems I am using the correct procedure. I wrote an email to Ram/Mopar/FCA customer...

Well that is good news. It means the system can do it. I just have to figure out what I am doing wrong or what is wrong with my system. It worked fine on my 2014 with the 8" screen. Can you tell me the steps you use to get to it please?

yup and still nothing.

My 2020 1500 Longhorn with the 12" Uconnect system seems to have no Trip computer. When I follow the manuals instructions and push the info button I only get 3 choices, Traffic, Contry/State and GPS. I do not get the 4th choice of Trip Computer as the manual shows. I have posted 3 pics below...

If you have access to specific fuel consumption curves for the Ecodiesel, Pentastar and Hemi please post them. I have unsuccessfully searchd to find them. I am awaiting delivery of a new Longhorn 4x4 Pentastar air suspension 5'7" Rambox to replace my current 2014 Ecodiesel Longhorn 6'4"...

In October I did a deal to trade my 2014 Longhorn 4x4 Ecodiesel 6'4" regular box 3.55 for a 2020 Longhorn Pentastar 4x4 5'7 rambox 3.55. It is a special order and has now shipped. The Ecodiesel was a great ride but had numerous trips to the dealer but never left me stranded and it averaged...

My 2018 Pacifica Pentastar specifies 0w20 oil. It now has 30,000 miles on it. I am stil awaiting my PEntastar Longhorn 4wd pickup. It is a lovely engine and the0w20 is a proven oil for the Pentastar engine but use a full synthetic.

I very much like the access rollup. Got my first one for my then new 2000 Dodge. It was outside its whole life in Northern Wisconsin and it was still nice when I got rid of the truck in June 2014 for my new ecodiesel Longhorn. Got an Access rollup for it too. VEry durable, fit well. QUick...

ANyone have any insight on what kind of price I should be able to negotiate to on a new special order 2020 Laramie Longhorn 4x4? Best I have been able to do so far is dealer invoice minus all but $100 of the dealer holdback. AS usual for this time of year there seems to be no incentives at the...

I had a 2020 Longhorn 4x4 built by two different dealers 3 weeks ago. Negotiated and was ready to buy but also wanted to add the split tailgate. They could not order a Pentastar on any 2020 Ram 1500 a week ago Friday. Nor could they yet order the split tailgate. They said they expected more...
