Dealer said No for transmission fluid change.
I read through these posts. I will likely never have to change my trans fluid, even though my 6.4 2019 2500 has 32K on it. So yeah, low mileage garage queen, but even better, my trans is brand new - changed at zero cost to me under warranty. I will be 72 years old next month. I don't expect to...- StMapleBury

1500 vs 2500 for towing travel trailer (downhill)
I have driven close to 100,000 miles towing three different trailers with three tow vehicles, through mountains, etc. I went back and forth to Alaska from MN once. I have a degree in Engineering Mechanics (think modeling mechanical systems). Here is my conservative opinion developed from having...- StMapleBury

2019 2500 6.4 Hemi - Getting a New Transmission - P0733
Update: Dealer notified me the trans came in after less than two weeks. I picked the truck up this week as we were out of town. No cost. No issues. Runs perfect. Brand new transmission. It seems to shift a bit smoother and doesn’t seem to make as much noise - all subjective, I know. A nice...- StMapleBury

2019 2500 6.4 Hemi - Getting a New Transmission - P0733
Well, that was easy - for now anyway. The truck has less than 32K miles. DTC P0733 gear speed mismatch once last winter and once this summer. I couldn't get it in until today. I detailed my experience to the dealer in writing; both times I moved very slowly (less than 10 mph nearly empty load)...- StMapleBury

Howy - Looking for 2025 Ramcharger Info, Stopping by...
I read everthing Ram produced so far. It is NOT like a Prius. A Prius has a motor generator and gas engine joined via a planetary gear set. I owned one. Great car IF you understand the limitations. The Ram Charger looks like it takes the planned fully electric truck and marries a generator to...- StMapleBury

For the towing newbies...
In ‘03 I bought new a Ram 2500 4x4 QC HO TD with a 48RE. I did a few minor mods for fuel economy, otherwise left it stock sort of… I planned to drive it a long time and did. I knew the limitations of the 48RE. My plan was to always have 1/3 more truck than trailer. My trailer never exceeded 9K...- StMapleBury

Fuel Mileage while Towing
I drove over 100,000 miles with a 2003 Ram HO Cummins optimized with cold air intake, Banks exhaust, economy tune, 3 speed auto with overdrive, towing a 30 foot 8000 lb travel trailer. All manner of conditions. The 2003 Cummins was the last diesel with no emissions additions. No cat. No Def...- StMapleBury
