Returning to RAM....

[rraulston]

Fellas, The Gladiator has finally worn off. It has been a flawless truck, but I need more towing capacity. Stuffing a Hemi in the Jeep is 40k. Not gonna happen. So here is my dilemma: I've had 4th gen and 5th gen Ram 1500s. My 5th gen AC never got cold and my 4th gen would freeze you out. Those were my only issues. Its important in AZ where 117 degrees is not uncommon. I'm leaning 4th gen, Or should I try the 5th gen again. Only towing 7500lbs so a 5.7 is a must. 4th gens are more affordable...dunno, thoughts??

I'd go 2500. New 5th gen got I6. Older 4th with 5.7 crapshoot. Newer 5th gen with 5.7 e-torque.

2500 = 6.4

My thoughts

4 gen 2500 all the way, I would get the 6 speed so early 4 gen may be out.

SInce U talking AC, unless U get a real new 5th Gen and be stuck with E TQ BS,

4th Gen all the way ref AC. Whether gas or diesel depends upon yer needs.

All IMHO..............
