I do know the TFL truck guys are so smart they tested the 6.4 Hemi in Drive mode only the entire trip. Towing 6-7k lbs. They didn't use Tow/Haul and manually select gears. It was such a flub they spoke with Chrysler afterwards and printed what is in essence a retraction. Wish they would have just repeated the prior useless test.
Chrysler made it clear the rpm used was intentional to keep folks from blowing their trucks up. If I recall, it stayed in 2nd gear and at other times hunted. As I understand it, manually selecting gears using tow/haul would have been a drastically different test. But I'm not up on all this stuff. Just passing on some internet banter. But I did see the letter Chrysler sent TFLT.
You can find the info between Chrysler and TFLT online. Just mentioning this in case you are interested in 6.4 Hemi and saw dumb and dumbers Gauntlet Run tube video. I saw it, researched it, and still want the Hemi 6.4.
