Ram 1500 with 3.0 diesel
Continuing my research for a possible new(er) TV. Anyone own/towing with the Ram 1500 with the 3.0 diesel? Might be to small for my towing needs, but something to think about. Thanks,

Especially those ECO BOOST'S! They'd pass me on the flats and i'd pass them on the hills. Eventually they took there proper place behind the ED!
While I like the ED and think its a great powertrain, other than MPG the EB will pull as strong up every hill its not stronger than your ED - the numbers are out there to prove this.
I hate when people have to post nonsense like that to try an put down other drivetrains instead of posting honest and good facts about how theirs performs.
I am not bashing anything. It was meant as a slight joke. And I've been a die hard Ford guy my entire life and the ED is my first non Ford truck.
But this is based in the real world towing my camper over 4K miles last summer. Based on the HP/TQ numbers EB should have had no problem out pulling me on the hills. But I found that not to be the case.
