    2500 Black Out

    I had a '14 2500 4WD with the Black Appearance Package. I loved it, but at 7400 miles, I'd had enough.. it was bought back by chrysler as a lemon. It's probably in pieces in saltillo mx. by now. Lol.

    Which Color

    Yup. Trading a 14 with the black Appearance package. Who ever said "once you go black"....well, they weren't talking about a truck. Different color this time for sure.

    Which Color

    I have narrowed my choice down to one truck. 14, 2500 CCSB, Cummins. So, now it's down to a color. Blue streak black gold white ???

    Looking at mega cab 3500 ?

    I think you're an excellent candidate for a 1500 eco diesel. Just my .02 As far as Dave Smith motors; I've bought 3 trucks from them over the years, first was way back in '95. If you have your own financing, and no trade, they are absolutely the best deal you'll find. They have every...

    The 6.4 HD Hemi Thread

    All I did was have a Flowmaster 50 series installed. It replaced the factory muffler and left the rest stock. Loved the sound...and NO drone.

    2014 Ram 3500 Hemi 6.4 what do ya think?

    I'm currently trading my 6.4 for a cummins so I guess I'm the minority here. The 6.4 will smoke the cummins off the line no doubt, but that's expected. If it weren't for mine being a lemon I'd have kept it. The 6.4 has great power off the line, but the mpg suck, and it requires 87 octane...

    Dave is the owner/CEO. He did at one time work for chrysler.

    Badge delete is an option?

    I've saw it when I built a 14 power wagon on the ram site, but not other rams. Only on the tradesman power wagon, and only the power wagon badges as far as I know.

    Need advice on pricing

    Agreed, but checked today and my order would arrive "maybe" mid - August. Not opposed to waiting, but chrysler rep said there is now a problem with 3.0 availability and a "quality issue" he wouldn't elaborate on. Whichever I buy is 1k below invoice. So...at roughly 4k less, the cummins is...

    Need advice on pricing

    Thanks for the tip! I'll check Costco. Personally, I feel $41 and change is a good price but maybe they can beat it.

    Need advice on pricing

    A little of both. Trailering maybe 3 times a month, 8-10k lbs so im at the upper limits of the eco. Just on the fence because of the price. With nissan and GM releasing their diesels soon, not sure the ecodiesel hype will last.

    Need advice on pricing

    Long story short, I was set on ordering an ecodiesel. As built, it would have been $45k. So I stop in today, and take another look at the cummins trucks. This one is basically stripped mind you, but I can have it for $41,525 out the door (including tax/title, etc.) Also got them to throw in...

    The 6.4 HD Hemi Thread

    I dropped in a K&N a while ago. I too was never a fan of them, but figured why not. Honestly didn't see any gains power or mileage-wise.

    The 6.4 HD Hemi Thread

    I'm guessing fan clutch fully engaged. Mine was DOA from delivery and sounded like a C-130 on departure, but ALL the time.

    14 Cummins Mileage #s

    I'm assuming you have the Auto trans? Those are great numbers!
