8 speed automatic
I went to my dealer last night and we did a build on a new Laramie I am thinking of ordering. Dealer said he can only get the new 8 speed to go into the build sheet. I only have until wednesday to decide wether to order the truck or not according to him.
My problem is I don't know anyone who has this tranny and can't find what I want on the lot anywhere with the 6 speed. I am a little concerned about durability of the new 8 speed and would like input from someone who has it in their pickup. My dealer said they have had them in some cars for a few years with no problems, but that is not using it for towing either.
Thanks

The 8 speed is the only option with the Hemi in a 1500 Laramie at this time. If you are looking for towing and reliability feedback it may be tough as this is the first year Ram has put this behind the Hemi. Feedback can be obtained as stated above from other forums but this would be of the 3.6 variety that has been in limited vehicles that are really used for towing.
