There is roughly a 1500 lb difference trailer weight wise between a 6.4 Hemi with a 4.10 and a 6.7 CTD with 3.42's per the 2018 info that I have.
What is the difference if they are both geared the same?
I doubt that the gas motor even has 3.42s available.....
And I can assure you that the diesel with 4.10s will embarrass the gas motor.
3.42's are the only option available in the 2500 & 3500 SRW CTD.
3.73 & 4.10 in the 6.4 Hemi.
6.4 Hemi 3.73 = 12,920 lbs
6.4 Hemi 4.10 = 15,920 lbs
6.7 CTD 3.42 = 17,480 lbs
There's pros & cons for each engine and for each consumer. What works for one person's needs might not be the same as another
