    New shock recommendation

    I actually felt 67ish and 72ish felt pretty damn supple. 72/82 feels "Flinstonian".....yabba dabba doo.... Eff me.....airing those down quick......

    New shock recommendation

    My $0.01......I've had plenty of experience with Bilsteins my Toyota rigs and I wouldn't spend someone else's money on them. Blew up a set of $800 coilovers years ago and haven't been impressed with their longevity in their lower trims either. Then again, they are relatively short money so it...

    6.4 transmission staying too high

    For me, I don't really put many miles on this rig unless I'm towing, my 2014 has only like 43,000 miles on it, so yes it is annoying the times I take it to work 18 miles round trip or a run up to my cabin with it which is 450 round trip but.......when towing in Tow/Haul I'm usually manually...

    6.4 transmission staying too high

    This has been the consistent complaint with the 6.4 rigs. I have been dealing with this for 5 years. Tow/Haul is a little bit better as it at least gives you 2nd more often. I hear a Pedal Commander somewhat helps. I still maintain that I love everything about the truck but I would like to...

    The 6.4 HD Hemi Thread

    Those numbers are about right in my 4-5 years of driving the 6.4. Enjoy

    Traded in 2016 6.4 to new Cummins!

    I have them on mine, some days I wish I had the large towing mirrors but most of the time they are fine. I tow two trailers and I have no issues really with these mirrors. Go figure on a Longhorn Laramie the two options mine doesn't have is the sunroof (which I am fine with not having) and the...

    Took the 6.4 on a road trip

    ^^^^ This Every one of those sensors and calcs has a margin of error even before wear and tear from usage comes into play......combine that whole series of variables with +/- and you end up with some noise in your numbers. Some manufacturers do better than others with this, some probably...

    The 6.4 HD Hemi Thread

    Thanks for typing that up. I would probably be in the same boat as you, sweet rig if I didn't already a 6.4L.......but not so compelling an upgrade to make me want to start over on payments. I'll own mine real soon and with only 42K miles on a Longhorn I'll sit and enjoy this one for a while...

    Took the 6.4 on a road trip

    Bingo. Like I said....we should all be happy with 15-16mpg at best highway.

    Took the 6.4 on a road trip

    I'm still wondering why people expect more than low to mid teens from these rigs. For the life of me I really can't. There hasn't been a heavy duty/super duty rig with a gasser that was ever known for getting anything but craptastic fuel economy. Decades of established experience should set...

    Took the 6.4 on a road trip

    The truck is capable of 17s in certain cases. I normally sit solidly in the 11-13mpg range with 35s and 3.73s. Towing, I see anywhere from 9-11.5mpg. On a road trip from MA to NC, all around Asheville/Brevard for a week and then back with 4 people and 4 bikes off the back with gear under the...

    Better mpg

    I started doing this lately just so the damn thing will give me 2nd gear on slow speed 90 degree right hand turns. So sick of being stuck in 3rd at 10mph. I'll leave it out of tow/haul when it is wet, that is it. I keep threatening to get a Pedal Commander but.....

    How Many Miles on you 6.4 Hemi??????

    I'm on the low side...... ~42K on my 2014......no real issues to speak of at this point.....60% of those miles have been towing.....

    A bit of a rant

    No bueno. Can you drive it in the meantime?

    The 6.4 HD Hemi Thread

    I have a 2014 with 3.73s and 35s and tow up to ~8000lbs several times per year, and have no issues. Been doing it for 4 years now. I'll let you know the first time I say "I wish I had 4.10s". As stated before, the difference is minimal.
