8 Speed Auto for HD trucks
Apparently, ZF is making an 8 Speed HD trans that can handle 1000 lb-ft. 2020 release date. I see it as the next trans in the Ram 2500 and 3500s. LINK

So again, RAM/Cummins is working on a new setup that moves all smog treatment post engine. So it appears that mileage will be similar to a deleted truck right from the manufacture. And we all hear above the mileage deleted vehicle get. BIL 2008 RAM 2x4 gets over 25 MPG on the highway. 14 to 14.5 towing a 37' 5th wheel.
Money spent for this seems to return better bang for the buck than what more expensive 8 and 10 speed trannies will provide.
