[QUOTE="DiamondSCattleCo, post: 630003, member: 2862"] I'm sorry Robert, but you didn't. 25/3500 Dodges still use the 545RFE 5 speed automatic while 45/5500 Dodge's are using the Aisin 6 speed automatic. If the salesman told you it was an Alisson, he was lying. As far as mileage goes, if you were testing a broke in Chevrolet against a new Cummins, then the Chev may have gotten better economy. The 6.7 Cummins also required a reflash late last year that raised economy up. Most of the guys around here are getting around 20 (bear in mind this is imperial gallons) hwy, once they've broke in. In all the years I was playing with DMaxes, Cummins, and Powerstrokes, I never saw one v8 diesel touch 20 mpg. With a proper set of injectors and the right timing advance, a straight drive 5.9 Cummins was capable of 23-24 mpg, if you kept your foot sane. Rod [/QUOTE]
