    2018 Ram 1500 Eco diesel

    Google GDE (green diesel engineering) it gives you some extra hp and torgue without changing anything else on truck. Most important it electronically shuts off egr . So it will not soot up intake it helps in turbo lag. It also offers other options as high idle, turbo brake

    2018 Problems??

    I have a 2016 if your towing I would recommend the 3.92 gears if your pulling around 6000lbs. Sure this truck is rated for more but I think you should never max out your towing ratings in any truck. I would not go over the 75% rating of this truck. I pull around 6000lbs and I feel comfortable...

    Tow haul mode

    If I drive the eco in the city, I tend to use the tow haul mode. I find it more responsive, little higher rpms, and a little more fuel. But I have never had a dpf filter full yet. I have a Gde tune and 30000 miles in eco is this normal?
