Pet peeve, I can't stand staggered badging. Looks poorly thought out. Line it all up or don't put it on at all

My wife has already said. No dealership for me lmaohaving previously owned an 8-speed 1500 and knowing how awesome it was in that truck, this is the exact thing the 6.4l needs. my wife is going to be pissed when i take one for a test drive.

Now that I’m fixing my truck up a little more and gonna be off-roading it. Maybe she will have to get a 2509 with the 8spd. I’ll be watching the fuel mileage on those closely.I’m gonna wait for the 2020 PW. It’ll be hard to do but... I really don’t want a 1st production year model. Too damn many bugs.
I love my truck!
Blue Mule 18 Ram 2500 4x4 C/C Off Road.
I cannot wait to test drive a 6.4/8 speed/4.10 combo truck!
Just wait until they run that combo up the Ike.............you wont hear a peep from any GM guys and their 6.0’s after that happens............
And for what it’s worth, a power bump would have been nice but with the 8speed it will Likely feel like the truck got one.
I'm very curious to see the 6.4's performance on the hill myself now that it has the 8 speed. I actually hope the TFL crew gets a 3.73 gear set truck. The 6.2L Ford has set the benchmark up that hill with a load and a 3.73. Now that it has an 8 speed, if the 6.4 can't match or exceed that performance, I'm going to be somewhat disappointed. Competition in the heavy duty gas department is going to be sky high this year. Don't forget, GM will most likely be showing off their new 6.6L V8 gasser that may be backed by a 10 speed at the Chicago Auto Show in February. The 6.0 is being retired. Ford may be introducing the 7.3L in their super duty line-up in the very near future. The consumer is going to have all kinds of new choices in the next 12 months for gasser heavy duty's.
No doubt Ford and GM have better offering coming and it should be a great test. Hell, i wouldn’t think twice on buying a current 4th Gen HD if they put an 8 speed in it, it’s no secret it’s bigggest downfall is the 66RFE. Glad to see some strides being made for the masses that need more payload and hauling than a 1500 but not needing a diesel (and I’ve owned 2 6.7 CTD’s!).I'm very curious to see the 6.4's performance on the hill myself now that it has the 8 speed.

doesnt matter how fast the 6.2 will go up a hill. ford has a big problem on their hands and its called death wobble, steering wheel osilation, the shimmy, shake. not knowing when it would hit or how severe , me personally i wouldnt tooch a ford with ten foot pole. spend $70k only to have to dump a bunch of my own money on aftermarket parts correcting ford engineers mistakes. no thanks
something else i just became aware of was the door latches that dont latch properly in winter months. its 2019 and we still cant get a door latch figured out. unbelievable. some guy has to drive around with bungy cords holding the doors shut on his brandnew ford. what a shame
