Hello,
I ordered a 2021 Limited and was told the eTorque option was only $200 more down from the $1995 from last year. While curious not concerned as I had a signed deal. Well looking at another tread here it was there that NADA & Cars.com had the packages and pricing for the 2021's. it was on Cars.com that i discovered that the "Regular" 5.7 Hemi is now the base engine on the Limited's and only options are 5.7 eTorque & 3.0 Diesel. Of couse the base price of the Limited went up almost $2500 so I gues thats why.

Probably because it's such a heavy truck it would be an absolute dog with the 3.6L

For a top of the line model I can't imagine many people want the 3.6 the economy isn't much better, and again if you are spending 60 grand on a truck, why not at least have a Hemi... Makes sense, Can't imagine they have many limited with 3.6's

Didn't know this was even a choice. Have a Pentastar in my Wrangler and wish that thing had more power... Cannot imagine it in a limited that is even heavier than my Bighorn with all that chrome and shiny things.

I've got it in my loaded Longhorn...this was my first truck and I've been kicking myself about it ever since. I'll be upgrading to a 2500 next year, but if I were able to go back and pick a different engine, my preference order would go 3.0>5.7>>>>>>3.6.

More surprising that anyone is buying a Limited with a 3.6...

The only real advantage is payload capacity

Not True. My close friend has a Longhorn with the 3.6. And if you go to Ramtrucks.com and use "Build & Price" on the 20's you will find them not only available but on the Limited the Base Motor.

I thought .com was the States site I’ll look again on Ramtrucks.ca

Yep , in Canada the Sport , Rebel , Laramie , Longhorn and Limited only have 3 options 5.7 w/o etorque, 5.7 w/etorque and the 3.0 diesel. We can only get the 3.6 in a Tradesman and Bighorn .

sorry I didn't notice you were from Canada. Did not know there was a difference. although that makes sense sine you have a sport trim there and we do not. Are the 2021's showing on Canada's site. They were up here for about 4 days then disparaged.
