Gauge cluster information center

[kcv67]

Do all of the models have the same gauge cluster information center. I am starting to shop for a new truck. I do not need all the bells and whistles I just want to be able to monitor as much as possible from factory gauges.

I do not think so.. I know the format is not the same, not sure how much info is really available on the Tradesman models.

My 2013 SLT only has the sped o, Tac, Fuel, and Def gauges, through the digital display you can call up engine temp, oil temp and pressure, transmission temp, Boost, Engine Break, Volts, Tire pressure, Fuel Econ, Oil life left, and fuel filter life left and I'm sure that I'm missing a few other functions. The higher trim levels offer more actual gauges (oil and Temp) but they all will display about the same info.

No, the ST, Bighorn(I believe) and Tradesman have a smaller centre screen in the instrument cluster. I do believe they can still show all the same information, just not as much of it at once and not a bunch of it in a customizable manner that will always be there on the outer edges like the Laramie and Longhorns instrument cluster shows.

You might want to look at an Edge Insight (or other OBDII reader) which can give you another 8 gauges for a few hundred dollars, whichever model truck you buy.

I have a Bighorn and it looks like the one pictured for a Laramie, but my gauges are a little different cause mines a diesel, not gas like what's pictured.

Yeah, I have the basic gauge. It is still very informative. I can name 4 trailers. And set different brake control settings. But I have to choose between boat, cargo, dump, & car. I can't personalize it as much as the fancy ones.
Still gives plenty of info.

I saw on another forum, a guy swapped the basic gauge set out with a Laramie cluster and he said it was a direct fit plug in. He got his from a another forum member. you might want to check the local junk yards for the upgraded gauges. Find one that will let you roam the yard.
