Really!

I haven't back over any curbs lately, but I can assure you my Ford truck wouldn't flinch to back over a curb! :B

I drive a 2011 F350 PSD SuperDuty at work and have experienced the same thing with it along with other issues I won't go into at this point. I'm on rough back roads all the time with it, and many times have thought I was going to have to use 4wd low range to get over something. Also used to own a 2009 Ram Dually with the 68rfe, and never had an issue with it in 4 years of ownership. Of course this is RV.net and you can take this with a grain of salt, but it was one of the best shifting transmissions I've owned. Never hesitated to back up or go over anything. Of course I'm biased I guess as I've only got 95k on the Ford and don't know what I'm talking about since I now own a GM truck for my personal rig..........Still driving the Ford at work though so does my experience count??

Did I hear something in the drivetrain snap on that white RAM? That didn't sound good.

And as Paul Harvey used to say "Now for the rest of the story"

Traction controll is why the rear tires were not spinning, as I mentioned before the rear tires should have been spinning since they were in gravel!

Oh BTW did anyone notice the video was on a Ford site?

Thanks for the honest post!

Oh, I am sorry. I didn't realize that it had to be on a Cummins forum for it to be an honest post.

Another Ram trying to get over a curb in 4hi. clicky Must be bogus too?

Cummins.... What say you? This is truly a pathetic display right here. We need answers asap! :B

Folks there's no torque management going on here. Those tires are not losing traction by no means on either truck.

There's something wrong with both of those trucks... Common denominator... 68RFE tranny!

:B

"Traction controll"

Spin it how you want, turn off the control and it will back over the curb with ease just like the honest Ford guy mentioning his truck will do the exact same thing.

So nice try!

Maybe you should stick to all the head gasket failure threads.

Wrong... I know how the "Traction Control" works on my truck. When you spin the tires the traction light starts blinking and power is reduced as you can feel it.

These guys never spun there wheels! But your response is very similar to the RAM exhaust break performance so the spin here has got you fogged up.

BTW... The honest Ford guy owns a RAM so I'll take that comment with a grain of salt especially on this forum.

I actually did that the other day in my Ram 2500 CTD helping a friend bove some furniture and I wasn't even in 4wd. Although I had to take off the traction control because it kept retarding the engine due to the back tires breaking loose just a little. Once I did that then it made it up no problems. I can go back to his house next week and get it on video if you want.

If one actually thinks a diesel with 800 lb-ft of torque cannot go over a curb because it does not have enough power then they are dumber than a box of rocks.

yea... I drive all winter long with "traction Control" off.. ranks right up there with ABS braking for uselessness.. traction control and ABS I guess is for people don't know enough to "drive according to the conditions".

I agree 100%. Give me a truck with manual t case, no abs, no traction control, manual hubs and the rest of the amenities of a new truck, save for the emissions, of course.... And I'd be happy.
Oh wait, that's what my 07 is except for the ABS and no free spin hubs.
I've gotten stuck more times due to traction control on the ice roads up on the North Slope, than I can count.
Whack one drift, punch it and watch the truck lose power to not spin the wheels and yer stuck!
Gotta admit stability control is pretty cool though. Can throw the truck into a slide and the computer takes over and puts you right back on course without even counter steering!

I believe that fellow needs a lesson or two or three on how to drive a 4WD pickup. This last February while attempting to cross a ice bridge in pitch black conditions at 4:00 am, my truck broke through the ice, seems sometime earlier water up stream of the bridge flooded over the original ice bridge then froze over. The layer of frozen water was about 5" thick. With all four wheels in the broken ice and about 8" of water I was able to back my truck up and out of the broken ice and water, that's 5" of ice over top of 8" of water... trick was simple... 4WD and in LOW. Because of the depth of water and the thickness of the ice above... some $1500.00 in parts later my truck and myself... tread lightly crossing ice bridges. I wish I had the old 2005 3500... with 6" of lift and 35" tires I could have made it to the other side easily.

P.S. My truck is auto 3500 4x4 with 3:42 gears and stock height with OEM size tires.

.... oh forgot to mention... I had to change my shorts as well. 😮
