2014 Ram 3500 without Aisin Tranny
I can get an incredible deal on a new Ram 3500 SRW, 6.7 Cummins, but it does not have the Aisin tranny. My eventual intentions would be to tow a 16,000 lb. fiver. Would it be worth me ordering a 201...

I was under the impression that the Aisin is not a better transmission (nor worse) but rather for two different applications. The Aisin has a PTO port for use on a dump bed etc. The 68RFE does not. This is why the Aisin is typically used on the cab/chassis trucks and the 68RFE on the 2500/3500's. I see the Aisin is now an option on the 3500's but if no need for the PTO port I would think the 68RFE is every bit as good. My 2007 Ram has the 68RFE and zero problems and truck is used 80% of the time for towing.
