They did say at 3:11 in the 3500 video the Ram required three brake applications.

That was because they did not put the Ram in Auto mode. If they did, then it would have automatically downshifted to maintain speed just like the Ford and GM did. The Rams have two modes for its exhaust brake. Full mode for those who like to manually gear down and Auto mode for those that like the computer to do everything.

Where in the 3500 video did you determine the Ram was not in auto mode? At 2:54 Nathan stated they were not manually shifting the Ram.


As for the Ford they did not state how many braking events there were.
