How could you tell if it was a 2013 Ram 2500HD? Just curious.

Or which transmission it had. You lose 20 ponies with the 68 and 35 with the hand shaker. Torque goes from 850 down to 800 with the 68 and 660 with the hand shaker. Just me but my days of rolling the gears is gone with that much of a power loss :M
Jim is there any noticeable body difference between the 12 and 13?

Well besides the Antenna location :W

Sorry for the late response as I don't see this thread on my home PC :R

The headlights was the indicator it was a '13 model and the truck had an auto tranny. Later down the road a bit I pulled into a Shell station to fill up and the (young) guy pulled in to talk. His new truck had ~2,500 miles and he's gettign around 16 mpg mixed driving and enjoying his new truck.

This is actually the second time at this particular intersection(the first being an '90's Dodge cummins truck and I'm in my 05 Super Duty 6.0 psd) that I had to step up to the plate. :B

It wasn't too long ago that a retired couple in their Super Duty 7.3 psd challenged me and I dusted him too. :B
