I also found the absent work grade vinyl, as others have pointed out on the fast lane truck video it does show a vinyl seat for the interior info with a red tag, who knows what is on the tag now, you would think they would have kept the premium work grade over the HD vinyl and promoted it. I do...

Went to my local dealer and were building up new 2019 3500's, to my surprise no work grade vinyl listed for fleet, retail or cab and chassis. One vinyl choice, not two as in the past and it is listed as HD vinyl as was the standard vinyl on the gen 4, maybe it is a late option or it may have...

All we had in the 1970's was vinyl, grain trucks, tractors, K20 Scottsdale chevys to pull 5th wheel trailers, never got a rash from it, though I would put cloth covers on it for Minnesota cold and heat, wash the covers as needed, seats are really comfy, thought they would have been alot firmer...

Just a little more Aisin info, if you are looking for one the easy way to tell is both the engine and transmission oil dipsticks are on the drivers side and non Aisins are on the passenger side for the transmission dipstick, The chart also has some interesting info on max. trailer weight...

I know much of this information is well known to our members, just my humble findings. As a former owner of 4 Cummins (two duallys) of different generations, the last 2015 3500 crew cab, SRW, 6'4", Aisin, and a recent 2018 g56 same configuration, I know many may be thinking why?, I seldom pull...

My new 2018 3500 g56 came in! Went with the cheap Tradesman black sport look (black and no chrome package) work grade vinyl, vinyl floor, snow chief, dual alt., 5th wheel package, vsim, CD player to get the extra storage, Ion polished 171's going on it as well as oem power wagon/off road...

I like the red one!, three pedals and two sticks!, Wish the 3500's optioned the off road package, here in MN. I have non -commercial lic. plates (one ton only) $122 a year, 2500's they are treated as passenger vehicles $750 a year, (based on vehicle base price).

I don't know if I would chance it that late, I'm leaning towards ordering the end of Sept., might not see a 2019 gen 4, and that close to build out options and colors might be limited.

No, the transmission has been flawless, but let me explain. I ordered my current truck in the fall of 2014, 3500. 4x4 crew cab, 6.4 box, SRW, Cummins/Aisin, Snow chief. Back then the Aisin was the transmission to have, many dealers stocked SRW and duallys with this heavy duty transmission...

Yes they do, mine has the Uconnect 5.0 with the screen in the radio face, and I do believe the 3.0 radio has it in the inside rear view mirror.

My truck of choice is a Tradesman, 2015, 6.7 Aisin, 6.4 crew 3500 srw, it spends it days doing chores on the farm, and off time in a unheated pole barn with barn cats sleeping on the roof, (yes, real farm truck). I did order this truck with carpet and cloth seating, (by the urging of my dealer...

I do have additional information, my salesman talked to the Ram regional rep for the upper midwest on July 3rd, many questions later, many questions remain, he did confirm the 2018 gen 4 HD will be built through Dec. 2018, The new HD's will be introduced in Jan 2019 with orders taken soon...

Trucks have come along way from shifting old pickups from the 60's with the muncie sm465 (non syncro first gear) , many medium duty farm trucks and semis. Many today assume the dual mass flywheel is the 660 lb ft. rating limit on the new trucks and I'm sure it is at it's limit, but in the...

Thanks, my dealer has talked to two Ram reps with different answers, one with 2019 will be out as a gen 4 with minimal changes, the other one said 2018 gen 4 build out to Jan 2019, and the brand new truck going forward.

So the order banks opening in Nov. will be for the 2019 gen 4 trucks, intro of the new 2020's in Jan. 2019 at the Detroit auto show. with ordering for them at a later date? (I would like to order a gen 4 g56 and get the last year of it, just want to make sure I dont miss out if I should order a...

I did some research on fleet manager sites they show the last orders for 2018 HD as the second week of Oct, and the middle of Nov for the order banks opening up for the new trucks with production starting 1/2/19, Strange they would not have kept building the gen 4 trucks without any production...

As reported the new HD trucks are coming out as brand new 2020 models , just curious are the gen 4 HD trucks done as of the 2018 model year and no 2019's?, or are some trims coming back as classics HD, like the gen 4 1500?
