I tell everyone to stay away from those Eco-diesels. You'll regret it if you don't. All the Mopar techs are well versed at the problems and avoid them too. They like to catch on fire too!! Do yourself a favor and do some internet research of peoples problems with them.
Go with the 5.7 Hemi, they have MDS and get decent MPG and plenty of power.


Agreed,

I talked to a guy who has a an ECO tech truck and he said his former 5.7 hemi truck would out pull it easily.,,,,,especially loaded. put a trailer behind it only makes it worst


I recently bought a 2012 hemi truck with the MDS hemi and I love it. More than enough power to pull anything I have in it or put behind it. And Im averaging high teens for MPGs



I would have loved to get a Rambox truck. But I couldnt find one in my price range that didnt have 150,000 miles on it
