If it has 4 auto then it's a clutch style. They do seem to work better though. That may just be how they programmed it. Don't know if it's more durable or not. I don't think the 6.2 is any worse on fuel than the hemi. Especially now paired with the 10spd.
Ford's 4auto transfer case will also lock. In 4auto it uses clutches like the others but it mechanically locks in 4hi/4lo. I think they developed it for the Raptor, but it's in the Tremor as well. I don't know about other trim levels.
The 6.2 Chevys get slightly worse milage than the 5.7 Rams, at least from the sticker. Ram has the optional bigger tank, though, and I'm more concerned about range than MPG. I love the 6.2L in my car and don't mind it takes premium fuel, but for road trips I like to have 500-ish miles of range before needing to fuel for the flexibility of picking when/where I do so.
