#91 of 198 Oil by moodygne Apr 21, 2006 (7:34 pm)
What is the best oil to use in my 2006 Dodge Ram 3500 5.9 diesel? Cummings recomends valvoline15w- 40w. I was told Rotella T is what to use, I don't know.

Replying to: sonny4 (Mar 23, 2006 3:28 pm) I just read an article that Dodge is talking about a six-speed automatic by Aisin-Seiki in "Diesel Power" Dodge is calling it the AS68RC. Ratios are 3.74:1 (first), 1.96:1 (second), 1.34:1 (third), 1.00:1 (fourth), 0.77:1 (fifth), 0.63:1 (sixth), and 3.54 (reverse). It also talked about a 6.7 L cummins ISB motor.

Replying to: ddf1 (Apr 23, 2006 1:33 pm) Correct on both. The 6.7L Cummins is an enlarged 5.9, and the Aisin automatic will be used in the new chassis/cab models. The 2500/3500 pickups will get a 6.7 with a bit more hp than the chassis/cabs, and a Mopar 68RE 6-speed automatic to replace the current 48RE.   kcram - Pickups Host

Replying to: newramfan (Mar 25, 2002 9:53 pm) Hello ford2k on this end. I am hopping that there is a fix for the dash on my truck. the truck is a 2001 2500 4x4. The dash on the passengers side split straight from the bottom of the window to the panel over the air bag. Has anyone else had this problem? help!!!

#99 of 198 2006 Ford F250 diesel vs Dodge 2500 Diesel by stoyeb May 28, 2006 (1:16 am)
Okay, I am about to spend $40K+ on a truck and trying to decide which will be the best truck.. Ford F250 crew cab 6.0 powerstroke or the Dodge equivelant, 2500 crew cab with the cummins engine.. Will be using it for alot of highway miles(commute) but will be using it for heavy work on the farm too, along with towing a trailer with tractors and equipment on it... I have been a Ford truck owner forever, but it really seems like the cummins engine is really reliable.. If anyone has any input good or bad for either of these trucks I would appreciated.. thanks in advance, Brad
#100 of 198 V8's verses inline's by ford2k May 28, 2006 (7:47 am)
There are pro and cons to both trucks. I have owned both. Dodge with the 6 cyl. this engine has one more main bearing then the V series engine. this is good for long life. on the other hand the V 8 has alot of quick response time at a lower and higher rpm. the Ford engine has alot of electrical equipment that can and do go wrong. the Dodge has some what of the same equipment but history proves the inline can give you alot of hard work with fewer problems. After you buy a truck really check out all of the power boosting gizzmoess that you can buy. there are alot of snake oil sales people out there. The best thing for a boost on any engine is allowing the engine to breath in and out for maximum proformance. Hope that I helped you. Greg.
