6.4 hemi in 2012 ram hd
guess i will have to trade in the 09 soon. wife is gonna kill me eventually. only had 1 year of payments on the 05 when i traded it for the 09. that evil temptation for more power.
Make a 4th Gen SRT RAM, and I'm sold, cab configuration be damned! I'd just keep the current RAM for family duties.

For about the last 20 years there's been an engine offered in the Ram HD thats far superior to the 6.4 hemi
jus sayin. I couldn't care less what gasser they put in an hd, this should be offered in the 1500 for sure

The 5.7 makes earlier torque, alot better mpg`s
The 6.4 only makes approx 50hp over the 5.7
Few cheap mods to a 5.7 will eat the stock 6.4
Does a 6.4 really add up over a 5.7...???? (just cubic inch bragging rights is all it does)
Nope, no thanks, for me, the 6.4 is not cost effective enough for me to bother trading up to get it, and i`m not lookin for CI bragging rights
What i see in the future... (the 6.4 likely wont happen for the 1500, if at all, even for HD trucks)
the 1500 with a modded 6.4 would tear up that cheezy drivetrain (trans and rear diff)
And you KNOWWWW as well as i do, you guyz wont leave it stock, then you`ll be breakin driveline parts when you`ve modded it, then pizz an moan dodge cant build good trucks. Dodge already see`s this comin, and i`m pretty sure they know adding the 6.4 to the 1500 truck line would hurt them more than it would help them. I cant even imagine what THAT price tag would be, either...! My bet it would be way over priced anyway. Dodge dosent have the cash to do this anyway. If it does happen, then dodge is alot dumber than i thought. The smarter goal for them is volume sales, not niche markets. But then again, i`ve never heard of anyone in fifty yrs saying dodge is smart anyway.
Anywhoz, just my opinion and thoughts, so dont go beatin me up over it to badly
