    Wifey has a 3.0 straight six Turbo in her Volvo. Even with just 300hp pulling 4200lbs, its a very strong engine. So this new powerplant sounds superb.

    What is the estimated longevity of the Pentastar V6?

    E torque batteries will be out there being reconditioned just like all other batteries in hybrid vehicles. As for towing with the 3.6, remember, towing capacity reduces as weight inside the vehicle increases. So start with the weight inside the truck to calculate safe max trailer load.

    Phone not connecting on Bluetooth

    Rear end choices

    I was thinking that most dealers got 3.55 rear end with the 3.6....But one locally has gone for the 3.21 or forgotten to hit the 3.55 button... Surely that has to be the runt combination of the litter.....

    More Horsepower?

    The adoption of the 8 speed ZF was a brilliant move by FCA, it improved economy, giving them a leg to stand on without engine replacement.

    It bugs me no end that you can buy a $25k Honda/Toyota/etc with Adaptive cruise included but the big three are milking it for mega bucks. Correction Big 2. GM doesn't know how to offer it on the Silverado. Ford charges $750 on the F150....C'mon Ram. Get with the program.

    Frontier is a Tacoma sized truck. Thank god Nissan rounded it up and are replacing it. There is truly a moment when vehicles need to be put out to pasture but the frontier was ready for the slaughter house long ago.
