Maybe you didn't see I said heavier than "MOST".

UH you have a 4500.

Show your 3500 ticket.

Ha , laughing at all the 8-10 speed comments when im rocking the 48RE thinking even a 5spd would be awesome....

Problem with BOTH the 4sp auto and 5sp stick is the BIG gap between gears. YA don't have that with the three 6 speeds.

Yepppppp....saw the “most” part.

Just verifying you’d fall for it.....hook, line, and sinker.

Oh yeah.....I’m only at 325*750......somewhat lesser in power than an HO 3500 DRW pickup, based on my memory.

How do you tow with so little power? I’ll bet it barely gets out of the driveway.

Waiting on the 3500 ticket. Should be more than mine!

If only I had 3.42’s........or better yet, 3.07’s like in the Challenger T/A

Is there any possibility Bosch will admit defeat with the CP4? How many years did Cummins run the VP44?

According to Bosch website. there are 60M CP4s installed in applications around the world. From what I've read, they don't like water, so good chance the superior fuel filtering system Ram and Cummins is using is major contributor to SUCCESS in our application.

I had a little itch I avoided scratching the other day... Nice new 2019 Tradesman 2500 4x4 CC SB in Patriot Blue can be had for $43K. Would have to get rid of 2014 Jeep Wrangler 2dr and just couldn't let her go.

My wifes gasser truck has 3.21s with HP8 transmission... 3.42s or 3.73s would be ok either way for a second truck, but for MAX Tow, its 4.10s or above for me. I'd like my 5500 better with 4.44s, but with Max Tow rating, 4.88s are just fine.

It's a buyers market for sure and I wouldn't hesitate to go for it if I wanted to.

Cheets, Ron

Can you still get the good discounts with 0% for 84 mo incentives?
A lot of times you get either the rebates or good financing.
Also, I’m still unsure of the CP4 pumps and looking at the 16-18 trucks but hate to pay $50k for a 3-5 year old truck when I can get a new one for not more more money.
I haven’t heard of any issues yet so I’m beginning to lean more toward a new truck.
I’m also considering a gas 6.4 or a Ford 7.3 gas. The Ford is getting some great reviews.

On the build site they are offering employee pricing on 2500/3500 pickups.
Shows 0% APR for 36 months, total incentives of $9,989 and no payments for 120 days.

I meant 5 speed auto, never offered, but to fill the 3 4 gap on the 48RE. I spend most the time towing with my hand on the shifter going between OD on / off and 3rd / 2nd , gets old fast.
