    New Ram orders, when, where and share what you know

    Hey guys are the waits for new Ram builds just as bad as Ford? I ordered a new Ford back in December. Probably won’t have it until July or August. Thinking about ordering a Ram and taking which shows up first. And selling the other.

    2023 Gas 3/4 ton

    I have already had a 6.4 6 speed. I liked it. But the 7.3 Ford has much better specs. The 10 speed with 4:30’s vs 8 speed with 4:10’s being a big one. I put 4:88’s in my 6 speed to get it to pull decent. I would like to stay with Ram but the power isn’t up with Ford.

    6.4L Hemi vs 7.3L Ford Gasser-either in a Dually

    My 6.4 6 speed with 4:88 handled 13k easily. Except for MPG lol I’m sure the 6.4 8 speed would be ok with 14k maybe get by with a 15k load. 20k? No freaking way. Buy a diesel.

    2014 Ram 3500 6.7 should I buy?

    I just sold my 2018 Ram 2500 Tradesman 6.4 only put 15,000 miles on it. Never one issue. I’m now looking at a 2014 3500 SLT 6.7 single wheel with 80,000 miles. Anything to be concerned about? Should I avoid this year? A thing I should look for?

    Anyone selling their truck in this crazy market?

    Nada had 47k /50k private party. I never buy or sale anything because a book says what it’s worth. But I do use it as references. I have shopped around allot and I can’t find anything near my condition for the price. Luckily it’s paid for so whatever happens happens. but the wife is looking at...

    On the fence on which gears to go with

    You couldn’t be more wrong. Funny thing is you comment how much more you like your truck after you changed gears. 6.4 6speed. Stock tires. Need 4:56 6.4 6speed 34” tires. 4:56 or 4:88 depends on how much unloaded freeway driving you do. 6.4 6speed 35” tires 4:88 6.4 6speed 37”. (You bought...

    2018 RAM 2500 4x4 Tradesman - Shocks, gas mileage

    The 6.4 is built to tow. Your truck weighs allot more than a 1500. No one should be surprised at the poor fuel economy on a 7,000lb truck with a gas engine. If you want better fuel economy buy a diesel at a significantly higher cost. you think the fuel economy is bad wait until you pull 12k...

    The labor charge usually goes up because they make money on the parts as well.

    2018 RAM 2500 4x4 Tradesman - Shocks, gas mileage

    These are factory shocks on the off-road package. If you have a level kit it will look like the round disk above the spring also pictured here.

    where did you get your gears?

    If your going to do the install yourself that’s a good idea. But if you are a shop and a customer brings in his own parts that don’t always go very well. Kinda like taking your own eggs to Denny’s for them to cook.

    Decision time 4:56 or 4:88

    It’s not going to help you keep the RPM down much at all. You may be able to do a gear higher up the hills and 5-10mph faster. But the 6.4 has to scream to do anything. The gears will help you get rolling that 1-2 shift sucks. The gears help that. You will be able to hold a gear higher on...
