0-60 time shocker.

sellin them ripps coil packs yo. LOL

LOL.....this a public forum. You act like you are new to social media.

You posted VERY questionable data and got called on it.

If any of the V8 or diesel owners posted something like that everyone would have asked the same questions regardless of engine type. I don't think we were hating just questioning the data.

Look... I'm just trying to sup up my V6 and take your daughter on a date... that's it, okay?

I don't have a daughter and if I did she would be too young and too smart to go out with a guy like you.

 

[Smerberj]

So I decided to try a different app to record my 0-60 times and the best I'm seeing is 6.4. Average is 6.6.

You're watching.... because you know you won't keep up to us in that poky little diesel so why bother trying

I’m watching because it’s funny seeing boomers argue with the Ram equivalent of Tacoma bro’s. I didn’t buy a truck for speed. I have a Mercedes for that. Also, I’ll beat you in range any day. Cringe

when i wanna go fast i hop on the Ducati... it's still fun to romp around and spin some tires in the truck though

Boomer? Thanks for adding 30 years to my life. I've also gotten 23 - 25 MPG on all freeway, so ... yeah you may beat me in range but I won't complain either.

I actually have nothing against the ED and would have considered one if they were offered when I was buying my truck. Maybe next time, though I doubt it since I hear a 2500 calling my name too.

"But what do the numbers say? In our tests, the prudent V-6 Ram hit 60 mph in 8.5 seconds. As you may expect, that's a little slower than the Ram V-8s we've tested. Featured in a previous First Test, the 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie 4x4 Crew Cab with a V-8 and without eTorque hit the mark in 6.1 seconds. A similar Long Horn 4x4 Crew Cab V-8, also without eTorque, came in at 6.3 seconds. A top-of-the-line Limited Crew Cab 4x4 V-8, the heaviest, managed 6.5 seconds with eTorque (the latter two trucks were tested at the same time as our six-cylinder eTorque tester).

The 2019 Ram with a V-6 is also slower than a rear-drive 2013 Ram 1500 Big Horn V-6 we tested. That truck made the same exact standard horsepower and torque as the new V-6, but it managed the 0-60 run in 7.4 seconds."

-Motor Trend referencing the test of a 5th Gen Ram V6 with eTorque.

MotorTrend is a joke for performance numbers. Take them with a grain of salt

My 2020 Built to Serve 4wd 5.7 non-etorque ran 6.3 0-60 using TazerDT timer with just the Borla ATAK exhaust. Have ran a best of 6.05 0-60 after adding the Vararam intake

I wasn't referring directly to you, hence the plural, rather in regards to others throughout the forum.

Their claims aren't too far off since most 0-60 second sites have the V6 Ram in the high 7 to low 8 second range. It will all come down to the weight of the truck from options, cab configurations, etc....

For clarification I have a 2wd, my trucks weight is probably in the ballpark of 4,800 pounds. I see the heaviest these trucks get is 5,374 pounds. New 0-60 time app I'm using is showing 6.4 best, 6.6 average.

These trucks can be almost 6,000lbs. Your truck weighs much more than 4,8000lbs. A Dodge charger weighs 4800lbs almost.

Just post your door sticker. Also I don't trust any measurement from an app on a phone to that degree of accuracy (10'ths of a second).

 

[J-Cooz]

My truck weighs 5883lbs based off door sticker and that lines up with what I've seen at the scales at the dump.

Theres no chance there's a truck that weighs 4800lbs.

 

[Scram1500]

Transfer case, front drive shaft, front diff, and axles weigh quite a bit. I'd bet a V6 2x4 Tradesman is probably under 5000 lbs

It is. It's like 4,906 LBs.

Last I looked, my door sticker didn't have the weight of my vehicle, just my payload and tire ratings.
