eTorque...how are you liking it?

[Shaggy]

Going to be picking up a V8 eTorque this week and just wanted to hear what you all thought about it? Any issues with it or has it been a dream?

I am sure you will hear a lot of different opinions on the etorque. My truck is a 21 Bighorn with the V6, and I have nothing bad to say about the etorque. I have about 9k miles on my truck.

I have talked to a few that had either gen unit failures, 48V battery failures, or control unit failures. Is it an epidemic? No, but to me personally it is needless complexity, and additional failure points. YMMV. I hope yours is 100% trouble free.

They are fine, enjoy you new truck

I've got a little over 8k on my '22 Hemi Laramie. No issues at all with the eTourque so far.
Enjoy your new truck.

Nice! Ended up pick up today.

Nice looking truck. I never had any issues with either truck I owned with etorque/hemi engine. Most of the issues seem to affect earlier model year 5th gens. My daughter had to have the 48v battery replaced on her 2019 Rebel within the first month of owning it (she bought it new). Given the choice I'd rather not have it, but since that's not an option for 2023 and 2024 models it's not a deal breaker for me.

Knock on wood, 34,800 miles on my 2021 V6 and no problems.
