Ram TRX

I've said many times, the 6.4 in the truck pulls harder and quicker than the D. Fuel economy is better in the Cummins but not by much.

HO 6.7L Cummins has 1075 ft lbs of torque.

I'll be towing a 41' RV and not running a 1/4 mile with it. I have other stuff to handle the 1/4 mile.
 
It is optioned sweetly though.
I'd love to have a 50 gallon tank. White cars have no character , couple that with the ugly body on the new trucks and Ooofa.
 
And, it's stickered at 87 plus. Make that the 22 and bang, I'm on.

I believe that I can build and order a 2022 in July. I have been told that it will take at least 9 months to build my order. Possibly new color or two might be available for 2022.
 
To be clear, when I'm talking get up I'm talking up to speed, not necessarily quarter mile runs. My truck is the slowest thing I've ever driven, comparable to a riding mower.
The HO should make it move nicer especially with the 10speed.
 
I will likely wait for a HO 3500 with a 10 speed to show up on a lot before I order one. I want to test drive that 10 speed before pulling the trigger on an order. Cook Dodge said they will get one as soon as they are available. Plus there are 6 Dodge dealers within 20 miles of me....one of them will have a 10 speed when they hit the lots.

The 2020 I rented wasn't a speed demon by any measure, but it wasn't terrible. Definitely not the slowest vehicle I've ever driven.

Slant 6 dusters are Quicker than a Cummins RAM. I'd just like to merge in traffic without needing a mile of open road.

When I was looking I couldn't find anything decent on the lots. Cook and a few other MD dealers were the closest in proximity with HD trucks that weren't work trucks.
Here, you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a HD diesel truck.
No home depot 1500s here.

A couple of days ago, a little wise *** Millenial decided to mess with me. He ran up alongside of me at a stop light in the right lane knowing it will merge with the left lane 300 feet down the road. He had a Subarooo! So the light turned green and off we went the faster he tried to go I kept pace in my RAM 2500 Cummins, so his lane disappeared and the faster he went on the shoulder, I stayed right with him with my front bumper at his door. Next thing I know is we are doing 85 and he is still kicking up dust. Traffic light in front of me changing to yellow, so I back off, he keeps charging ahead, runs the red light going straight in the right hand turn lane.
