Sounds like the Ram HO is not torque limited like the GM trucks in 1st gear.

The new 2020 GMs with the 10 speed auto are also not power limited in 1st gear.

One negative is the POS NEXEN tires!

Looks like all the vibration and transmission drivability issues have been addressed.

Sounded like the DRW truck will smoke the tires into 3rd gear., who cares!

I want to lock out 1st gear starts running BobTail.

Louvers on the front and the whole revised air intake/cooling sounds great.

Sounds like they have addressed the rediculas rear tire pressures of 80psi on the 2500 for a better ride.

Hardware improvements and software improvements on the AISIN and 68RFE.

50% ride improvement on something I am more than happy with.

We will see, a 2020 may be in my future!

You did miss it. Turn your volume up and listen around 1:20 to 1:50 in the video. Jim Morrison confirms it at around 1:40 in the video, but it's pretty quiet as the mic seems far away.

Certainly impressive but still no CP4 pump for me!

Looks like Ford better de-nanny their truck.
