Watched the video. WOW, I sure wouldn't want someone to watch this video that you were trying to convince that's the best HotShot Truck to buy.
He kept saying he was almost to his MAX weight??? 25,720# combined, I sure don't think so!
Kept saying how great the trans stayed in the gear it should be, but then it didn't and he couldn't understand what was wrong.
Says the RAM was horrible in 6th same road, what was he towing with 3.42's or 4.10's??? I tow at 60 in 6th at 1,750 a perfect rpm. 4th is 2,700 at 60 and 5th is somewhere i n the middle 2,200-2,300?
So here is a guy that is constantly saying the EB is not very good and the RAM holds great in any gear.
Something that annoys me is he seems to be a left lane HOG.
He said "10th is for over 70" then next thing he is in 10th at 55-60 and doesn't understand why. Trans on cruise set to 55 would drop to 45 before dropping a gear.
Getting 11.4 towing a VERY low profile nicely covered trailer with a combined weight of 26k is NOT anything to brag about. It's right about where it should be with that type of load, road conditions and speed he was towing at.
Put him in a 2020 RAM with the AISIN 6 speed and 4.10's. Now let's be honest what would he be saying on the same exact conditions?
