There is NO way to make any 3.0 Bullet proof. You are also at MAX CAP with 5500lbs tow , that will put you at 11.5-12K Buy 3/4 ton.
If you do buy 3.0VM you will need to upgraded to missing parts, although GDE claims their new COC tune missing parts will not be necessary.
No on the tools, Rail pressure sensor failure is equal to Hurricane in MN, The only way for the RPS to fail is voltage spike or you physically hit it, , water. Water is the more frequent reasons why they fail, its bury under foam if the foam is still installed water on any ED is unlikely.

65 Seems to be the sweet spot for 3.0 3.92, after that the MPG takes V. My driving city Mixed never reached 20MPG, it was as low as 17 in winter and 18-19.1 Summer. I always HC....
John, that's My 2015 Mileage OEM also, 1 time I drove from Mason City IA to ,Blaine MN and I hit 30.2 MPG driving 65mph, It was the only time I made 30 MPG in 4,25 Year of Ownership. I use to give the Oscar to the 3.0 for MPG, Not anymore the AEM has cost 1-2 MPG and 2019+ Gas engines/truck have...
If the price can overcome the risk, So that would mean it would have to be a steal of a deal. OK here's what I would consider a steal 30K miles loaded Laramie in mint condition not a nickel above $25,000.00. US
What's the relationship the EGR has to do with over heating? IMO this engine has...
Why not just get the 2500 with 8ft bed and be done with it. I could only imagine the body roll that any in bed camper would produce.
Yesterday AT Foss RD and old HWY 8 their was a 1500 Ram that was Pulling loaded single axle trailer overloaded with dirt, it blew rider tire, the Driver was not...
Bergie , I tip my hat to the Dealer, I just cannot support this engine made By VM (3.0) I heard the same comments in 2015. What's going to happen when VM stops production of the 2020 version? and it seems VM is getting fitted for Industrial and Marine engines? FPT. https://www.vmmotori.it/en/...
ED, its all just increased risk you don't have with Hemi's or gas, DSL Fuel around here is currently $0.80 PG more then GAS.
My 2019 Limited get's 2-3 MPG better then My 2013-14 5.7s So I'm saying $. the 2019 is just all around better truck.
2017 Rams Have Urea sensor so you cannot use...
If you drive the 3.0 like you stole it, It will create Soot, at some point costing $1000s to repair ,plus you will be adding Active Regens equaling less Mileage. With DSL you do NOT have gas pedal, its the Go pedal or AP, APPS.
DSL need to be roll into, Dart driving is for gas engine's. Dart...
I have no idea why Boost deleted the comment, it was truthful, and was not hurtful in any manner, their are 10s of 1000s current and past 3.0VM owners that agree the learning curve is brutal. Its is unlikely without changes to make 200K miles without major repairs OEM. The only 3.0s VM that I...
Not Yet...1964 keep all your documents and report the fire to FMCSA. Their are owners that this has happen twice. Insurance is another expense in owning the 3.0VM, My 2019 Limited 5.7 is $240.00 per year less then My 2015 loaded Laramie Ecodiesel.
Stand Your ground, unfortunately in America to many for to long have remained silent,.... the everything's is OK, and you have NO right to challenge matters is prevalent and practice everywhere.
This is the foremost reason why the VM3.0 has 6 Years of the same continuous problems and...
