What made you get the G56? Does your 13 take DEF? I gave up on underbuilt autos in TVs when I got my 97 CTD and it's been the best decision to this point. My 03 is still more truck than I need (til I retire) but I'm getting the itch for the new autos cuz they're light years ahead of the old ones. I'm also getting the itch for 4wd for off road camping so I'm resisting going near the dealers! Craig
Hi, my last 2 Ford diesels were manual transmissions and I really liked them. When we were looking around for a Ram we got really lucky and stumbled across this truck which was a fully loaded Laramie Megacab dually with the G56. As soon as I drove it I fell in love; the G56 is really easy to drive with the no throttle launch feature and is very smooth to shift.
Yes, my truck takes DEF but I really don't anticipate it to be much of an issue. The DEF tank was not full when I picked up the truck and at 1000 miles it still has 3/4 tank so it certainly does not seem to use much.
Yes I'm sure you would be very surprised if you drove one of the new ones! I went looking and, well, you see what happened to me!
