Where was I lying? :h
You specifically said their was no demand for our trucks and I said that was false and that there is demand(even though it small) with proof. How is that lying?
Robert, what is the population of Australia?
How many American trucks were sold in Australia?
Shiner, there you go, "No demand" for American trucks in Australia. What don't you understand about the number?
A dually with 4:10 gears that can pull a house over would benefit from having one more over drive ratio for running bobtail. It does not need a lower gear than 1st gear, and the ability of lock out 1st when not towing would be good, creating 2nd gear starts.
The SRW RAMs with the Aisin have a small issue between 2nd and 3rd gear towing heavy, however I am not sure it is worthy of a transmission redo.
Based on final gear ratios, that is the combination of rear ratio and the transmission gear ratio in use, does it really matter if you stay with a low rear ratio and add another top gear in the tranny or use the high rear ratio and add another gear below 1st?
In long haul trucks we have seen the gear count come down, not go up as the diesels got broader power curves.
Now my 13 speed Road Range behind a 350 hp 8V71 that you drove between 1900-2200 RPMs needed all those gears to keep it in that narrow power band.
Like pointed out earlier the Hemi RAM which current has issues with gear ratios will benefit from more gears.
