    Diesel or Gas?

    Hello, I have been a diesel guy for many years now. I currently own a 2011 Ram 6.7 3500 with 75K on it. I have no warranty and the truck is flawless except for only one issue. The emissions. If you get a diesel, the emissions leg on the diesel will fail at some point. I only have 75K...

    6.4 Hemi No Power high altitude

    Drove across Kansas to Rocky Mountains. Yes loss in power is noticable. However no problems pulling 7600lbs up the mountain. Yes it is slow but I feel safe. 66rfe did not heat up. Same temp. Throughout the adventure. I think this hemi produces when asked and gets the job done.

    Years to avoid/buy - 2500 for towing

    Hello I will give my .02 cents. I own both worlds in a diesel (all stock) and gas trucks. 2011 3500 longhorn and 2018 2500 6.4l gas. Both have the 3.73s. The 68rfe gets a bad rap due too tuners. Both are all stock on mine and they are pulling machines. I hear many good things on the...
