LoL OK, grown men handle their business in front of others who can be critical of their words and actions. Good job on taking the lead in not referencing me. Have a good one.

I don't post pics of my face in public. You'll never see it.

No, you said your DD-214 stated you were paralyzed for xx days. I then said prove it. I didn't ask for a basic training pic because it proves nothing. If you're going to bring it out in the open, at least prove your point.

I wonder if a quick call to either redline or the trans manufacturer would give some insite on the ram ZF transmission using this fluid. I would be careful how you start the conversation though.

Pre-Shave coffee, to be followed by pre-shower coffee, to be followed by Post-shower coffee, with a little on the way to work coffee, followed by a morning of coffee.

How about this anyone who insults others on here will take a vacation... period. Thousands of people in this thread but only a couple of you have to fight all the time.

PUP has proven to be better protection from a wear standpoint than Redline or Amsoil so you both are wrong anyway.

You can say the other is wrong but no need to insult each other.
Debate = good
insults = bad.

Got it?
Not trying to be a **** or anything but my previous Ram, a 2015 Laramie had nothing but PUP 5W20 from 10K to 32K(PYB from birth to 10K) changed religiously every 6K miles and had the cam /lifters fail at 32K miles. I still have some PUP I need to use up but I will definitely give Redline a try once its gone. I'm going with 4K mile oil changes until then. Maybe switching to 5W30 would have prevented it but we'll never know.

Ouch! Do you have any pictures of the damage? I’m assuming no UOA’s during the 32k? Sorry about your luck that sucks, but thankful it was still under warranty, didn’t cost you a thing did it?

I’d like your post, but that’s almost like kicking a man when he’s down.
