Maybe the regular cabs will be offered with a 6.4 or upgraded 6.2 hellcat motor....
I know....wishful thinking ...lol
RCSB is the only way I would go, I understand a lot of guys get theirs for work, but mines just a play toy and the single cabs just look plain sexy!
Id rather have that than the 6.4****, bring back the 6.1, even...

6.4 is known for their egg shell ring lands..lol. The 6.1 can handle more boost. Especially with a good tuner that knows what hes doing. This is stock vs stockMight I ask why? Is it parts compatibility with the 5.7?

If you are not going to run a power adder or only 5psi go for it. You can also do the drop in forged rods and pistons in the 6.4. I think the drop ins are for 25k miles and less. More miles, it would need machined iirc.That's.... Good to know. My pipe dream build was a 6.4 swapped ram. Hm. Guess the 6.1 is better, anyway. Especially after seeing that thread of the guy who actually 6.1 swapped his ram. Cool.

I'm not getting rid of mine either. I'm talking about down the road. After the truck gets old and needs to be traded in. For me, it won't happen for years and years. I have low, low mileage and the truck is well kept/cleaned/Cquartz Finest.Regardless I'm keeping my Express Hemi RC short box.
All the truck I'll ever need and it is all MINE not the banks
So, I built a rcsb with Ford, Chevy and GMC. (REMEMBER,....we're talking just rcsb trucks here.)
Compared to my '16 Ram Sport 4X4, they're cheap. When I say "cheap", I mean, not as nice as the Ram. No heated leather seats/heated steering wheels/heated outside mirrors. I also think the floors aren't even carpeted like the rcsb Ram trucks. So, in my opinion, and not because I own one, but the 4th generation Ram is the nicest rcsb out there that you can get from a dealership.
I really hope that Ram/FCA keeps the rcsb as nice as it's always been and even better!
Amen brother!!!No question Ram makes the best RCSB. My last truck I was looking for a nice crew cab, and Ford came out on top. After the disappointments I ran into with the Ford, I decided what I really wanted was a regular cab and once I started looking, it was no contest. The RCSB Sport is the only RC any brand took the time to put some distinction into. That said, I haven't seen leather seats (unless you're counting the outer trim)?
I'm sure there's a RC on the way, but I'm not surprised it's not being pushed as hard to hit the market right away as there is a smaller buyer base. Part of what makes the RC unique!
Good to hear abut the regular cabs, but that sucks they're moving back to Mexico!According to my dealership regular cab trucks will be late availibility due to the plant moving back from Mexico.
