Yes, the Eco light on the 5th gens will come on in MDS mode. If you haven't already, you can turn on that light in the Uconnect screen options.
While you are at it, you should also turn on your "Current Gear" option in the gauge menu settings, which is off by default. This is a nice little feature that shows you what gear your truck is in currently.

some level 1 or A equipment group do not have this option. you have to set it manually every time you put the truck into drive

Wow, that's interesting, how do you turn the current gear indicator on with that system? You have to fiddle through the menus as well?

Isn't that the gear limit?
The current gear is another indicator that would be to the left of that one on the gauge that shows your current gear. Or did they combine that version?

that is all i get otherwise it just states "D"
small 3.5 cluster dash does not have a lot of room
I think you might be confusing this a little. They all have the option to turn the ECO light on or off, which has no effect on MDS operation. It just enables/disables the indicator. To disable MDS you have to use the gear limit switches all Hemi equipped 5th gens.
Edit: I guess I can't speak to the small gauge cluster display or small uconnect screens, since I haven't used them.
