Sorry, but have to agree with him. Global warming is a far off risk of uncertain magnitude. I'm not sure what part you disagree with. I know a number of college professors in the science field that Feel that the whole global warming thing is jumping to conclusions way too quickly. One chap rattled off several examples of various environmental spikes in conditions that had little to no long term effect.

Lack of power by tacowoody

I had a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 with a 5.2 V8 and it seemed very underpowered. I don't think the truck was too heavy. The engine was just weak. Sometimes while the truck was in idle it would start shaking as though it was going to stall. And going up grades would cause it to lose power and backfire.I hated that.I can say my truck never stranded me anywhere and I had good times going to Yosemite,hunting in the Sierras, and various other places. I did like it's tow package combo of oil cooler,tranny cooler,heavy duty radiator, and heavy duty alternator. It was a good truck but lacked power for the amount of gas it was guzzling. Instead I bought an 06 Tacoma Double cab which fulfills all my needs and comfort.

Where to look for rear end ratio on 06 RAM 3500 by titanium29

Where can I find what the rear end ratio on my 06 mega cab cummins is? I see a 4:10 is available, but don't see a reference to it on the original window sticker. It is it not specifically listed as an option, does that tell me it is NOT the 4:10?

It was a cost option ($44), so it should appear on the sticker. You can also check in your glovebox - there is a decal that lists the option codes. "DMF" is the code for 4.10 diff.

Excellent. Thanks. The owner's manual was anything but clear on this. While I am on the drivetrain - the '06 HD's have a new transmission. Is this new tranny a. worth it's weight in steel, and is it, as I am getting bits and pieces of, made in Japan by "Aisin" or the like? I had concerns buying the truck due to known tranny issues, but my dealer says the whole issue has been resolved with the new ones.

The 06 trannies are still the same as the 05s. The new automatics are for the 07s. The Japanese-made Aisin 6-speed automatic is used in the new chassis-cab models only. In January, there will be a Mopar-built 6-speed automatic for the pickups. Both these 6-speed autos are for the new 6.7L Cummins diesel only. The Hemi keeps its existing transmissions for 07.

The 545RFE used on 4.7 & 5.7 engines will also receive variable line pressure sometime in 2007. I'm not sure, but I think the 48RE will also receive it as well, but that may come later.
 
Best regards,
