    6.4l terrible mpg

    I have a 2015, Oct 2014 build date, 2wd, 6.4 Crew Cab, Big Horn. Bone stock except for lighting upgrades. I live in the Southland, don’t play in mud, no need for 4wd. With my 3.73 gear I easily get 20 mpg highway. I must stay under 70 mph to get that number. (No, I don’t drone along at the speed...

    Lets destroy the trx

    Darwin must have taken the day off, otherwise, at the speed he was going the TRX would have dug in nose first, done about 5 endos, spit him out of the back window and landed on his body.

    2020 2500 6.4/ 3.73 Gas Mileage!

    2015 6.4 3.73 2500 with 90,000 miles on the clock. Many road trips of varying length of flat country, hills and eastern mountains. I see 20 mpg indicated from time to time. Any speed much over 70 mph eats into the mileage number. That big front end has a lot of air to push out of the way...

    Brake calipers needed - what to buy?

    I have 90K on my 2015 original brake parts. Lots of expressway driving, not much towing and I live in the saltless Southland. I’m very fortunate. When it is time for work, I’m sure I’ll go OEM parts.

    New Oil change question

    I didn’t obsess over oil change routine. (I don't do my own any more) Hot, cold, I didn’t care too much. I don’t think a couple ounces of left over oil will contaminate over a gallon of new oil and render it “old”.

    2014 6.4 Blown/Locked Up

    I was talking to an insurance adjuster for a company that sells policies that are sold at dealerships. Not the phone PIAs. I jokingly asked him when my 6.4 will blow up. He said they don’t get claims on 6.4 RAMs. I consider that good news.

    I need a new battery....

    I needed a battery for my 2015 2500/6.4. Interstate fixed me right up. We have an Interstate store nearby.

    governor removal

    I did all the go faster magic to my 2015 6.4. Now it tops out at 138 mph. My question is: Will the plug in my right rear tire stay in at that speed? (sarcasm/comedy font engaged)

    Ebay catch can

    So if a goop catcher is so good, why aren’t they OEM installed?

    who has highest mileage gas heavy duty?

    2015 6.4 82,000 miles. I just had it in for a dead O2 sensor and slight off idle misfire. I still noticed the misfire once though.

    I sense a problem.

    Understand, South Texan. I’m an old geezer and easily remember plugs, points and condenser every 7,000 miles. Technology although expensive, is magic.

    I sense a problem.

    RAM is fixed. The first sensor to come in was the wrong one. Second one was correct. Very expensive I’m thinking, but at least oem parts. Hoping for the best. The dealership looked busy. Lots of furrowed brows above masks to be seen.

    I sense a problem.

    82k 2015 6.4 check engine light. I dropped it off at the dealer, don’t judge, and it is bank one sensor one. It is taking days to get one. I did the usual online tour of the parts houses. I saw out of stocks for sensors or no listings for bank 1 sensor 1. This is the first real problem I’ve had...

    Auto-Fold Mirror Hack.

    And then there are the people who never fold their mirrors. “I don’t want to wear them out.” Not me.

    How many miles before brake job

    I have 80,000 miles on my Nov 2014 build date 2015 RAM 2500. Still original pads front and rear. Yep, lots of expressway and some towing. When I go in for my next oil change and tire rotation I’ll ask for a good look at the brakes. I have an excellent local dealer. Your mileage may vary. I...

    If you had 1k...

    A nice road trip. Plan well and I’ll bet you would be amazed by how much of the country you could see on $1,000 while enjoying your truck.

    How long does everyone let their Hemi warm up in the morning?

    I live in the southland where it doesn’t get extremely cold very often. I hop in, start up, make sure there are no warnings on the dash and take off.

    2020 1500 eTorque with terrible MPG

    Not exactly apples to apples but my truck is a 2015 2500 crew cab 6.4. I have had lots of time to watch my average mileage on the entertaining dash display. 77,000 miles. The two things that affect my average: Call me Captain Obvious. Sitting stuck in traffic (my life) and you can watch the...

    Do you take off as soon as the engine starts?

    I put it in gear and take off. I live in the south so that helps with temps. The only thing getting warm just sitting there is the engine and exhaust pipe. The trans and diff are still cold. Back in the day, I lived in cold country. My car was a 4 speed. I would back into the driveway and leave...

    Uh Oh Mobil 1

    As I recall, Mobile 1 and Ram/Dodge/Chrysler/Fiat.....whatever, had a pissing contest about paying bills. Mobile 1 retaliated by not certifying their oil for use in our engines. Tribal knowledge or truth?

    Circled Icon Sat Nav

    I have the upgrade kit from Infotainment.com. It’s been fine for several months. Just the last few days it got glitchy. This morning it seems all is well. The time is correct at least. Not sure what firmware I have and no idea how to update it. Thanks for the info.
