Love how the marching band is just playing in the background, LOL. And I was just considering Dodge's new Ram with the 20MPG 390HP V8. Maybe I'll wait. My uncle's V10 Ram caught fire a few years ago. That fire came from the transmission. Would of hoped they had these things fixed by now.
i just got rid of my 2010 ram they are nice and have plenty of power but dont get the six speed auto with the tap shifter i only had 16,000 miles on it and was on my 3rd trans
Where have you guys been? Dodge has been having transmission issues since the mid 90's.
i know but was just trying to think of what caused this fire in the new durango the trans,leaky vc gasket,etc
Yeah, I know most Chrysler transmissions used to go out at 75k cause they were using plastic parts. But besides my Uncle's, hadn't heard of fires. My uncle was backing up with a trailer close to 20,000lbs on a rainy day in the dirt. He thinks it's their high gears for reverse. He said one day he was chasing a deer in the field going 40mph in reverse with plenty more throttle to go. 3rd transmission, damn. I'm thinking all these transmissions made today with the 6 speed tap shifts are crap. I was considering finding a vehicle with a CVT transmission like Nissan has now.
Something that I don't understand is I have a 2000 Silverado 4wd exteneded cab, 8 foot bed and towing package.
It's the average looking truck and I don't drive it like a retard, yet a ton of newer Dodges try and race me on the highway. They have a 6 speed, they have more horsepower etc and they are much louder. Yet everytime I beat them to my 98mph limiter. There's never a question of if the shortbed 2wd Dodge is going to win....
My truck has a K&N panel filter in it. That's it's only power mod.
They said it was overheating. My shot in the dark is that maybe it had a coolant leak, low coolant, overheating burned up an injector o-ring and it started firing on manifolds or something.
