Here were my MPG results with the 2012 Ram 2500 6.7 Cummins after I did the straight pipe and tuned. For such a big truck i honestly dont think i can ask for anything more.
Let me know in the comments what the project in the garage is if you know? or just take a guess if you dont know lol
The shed project is so close, i have to actually finish it today, its 0300 hours at the moment and im gonna get some sleep and then bust it out!!! We are also throwing a Bday part for Matthew and Viola on the same day, Viola will be 7 on Nov 27th and Matthew will be 3 on Dec 3rd but we decided to invite Fam over and do some food stuff and do both Bday parties.
Hey guys what's going on welcome to the channel and today I wanted to discuss the Dodge Ram
fuel mileage and what I was getting with the truck being deleted, straight pipe and a tuner.
Now before I installed the straight pipe and I did the tune I was getting around 14
around street and about 16 to 17 on the freeway and then after I installed the straight pipe
and I did the 40 economy tune I used a race me tuner to program the truck to the economy tune
and then I decided to take on the freeway find a flat spot set the cruise control and then see
what I was getting at 60 65 70 and 75 so let's go take a look what the truck was getting at
that those speeds so the best I was able to get was 20.5 miles per gallon at 60 miles per hour
and I think this truck at 60 65 you can get to about 21. Maybe if you do like an intake for
example I did not have an intake the intake was stock so maybe if you do like an intake
I think it can get to 21 maybe even 22 because it'll breathe a lot easier so I think deleting
the truck and doing a tune it's one of the best things you can do to diesel especially 6.7 and
also I never even seen black smoke coming out of the ramp on the five nines on five nines you get
a lot of coal but on the six sevens with the tune that I was getting the economy tune at 40
there was absolutely no coal at all and even I was trying at 80 and 120 I was still not getting
maybe a little bit at 120 but I was not getting as much coal rolling as a 59 would get so yeah
I really missed this ram and I'm kind of sad that I sold it but at that time it was a financial
decision that I had to make because the house needed some windows and some work done and the
house still needs a lot of work done to it but it's one of those things that I just had to do
for financial reasons but I'm always keeping an eye out for another 6.7 but I do want to get one
2013 and newer and I do really want to find one with the ASIN transmission
which is a more capable transmission more reliable than the 68 RFE and the manual
transmission is not really an option for me because wife doesn't really know how to drive
stick shift she can learn we can teach her maybe on the F350 I think that would be
an interesting experience but I think for the sake of our marriage if I get in the truck it should
be an automatic and maybe a sports car later on manual sports car who knows we'll see so yeah
I'll keep an eye out I'm hoping next year I'll get something that I like I really want to get a
4x4 obviously with a cummins engine and ASIN transmission and I really I started to like
after I bought the F350 I didn't like uh duallys before but after I bought the F350 I started to
really like the duallys but for the ram I would really love to have a dually mega cab because I
think those come with only short bed if you get one with the mega cab and then they have a long
bed regular cab because I think they use the same chassis on both but I wouldn't want a long bed
mega cab anyway so I think the mega cabs dually look uh really really nice and I think it would
be kind of cool to have one for the family and have all the room in the back and a dually for
potential maybe fifth wheel in the future who knows or mega cab single wheel non-dually
that'd be kind of cool too maybe lift it with like a six inch lift uh 35s or 37s I don't know
that's a different story for a different day and a quick update on the shed I'm finishing up part
five of the shed build and so now uh what I have to do is uh finish up a few touches
and get it painted but I gotta get the shed painted this week because next week
it's starting to rain for about four days I think on Monday or Tuesday it's gonna start
raining so I gotta finish up the shed and be done with it and then I can move on to pretty much
strictly car videos no more building sheds or whatnot at least for now at least for now till
probably next year because I have a few other bigger bigger plans uh next year when the weather
will get better but for now it would be only uh truck and car stuff and those of you that might
know I have a really cool uh project in the garage I do have to clean up the garage to get to the
project because it is a it is a mess and it's it's an embarrassing mess uh but I gotta get to
that so those of you that might know what the project is in the garage comment below I'm kind
of curious to see how many of you actually know what I have in the garage I had a few clips with
a few hints here and there so I'm kind of curious to see how many of you spotted it but that project
is going to be a big hit on the channel uh because there's not that many builds like that
on YouTube and I think that'll explode pretty big on YouTube and on my channel and I think it'll
help my channel grow so we'll see we'll see when we um when I'm ready I'll show you guys a lot more
about that project but like I said it's pretty messy in the garage so I can't even really
get any good any good uh any good uh views of the project so yeah you gotta clean the garage
make it nice make it presentable and then we'll reveal and show more of the project
on the channel but yeah if you're new to the channel please subscribe put your comments below
hit the bell let me know your guesses of what the project is in the garage
and we will see you guys on the next one see ya
