Default First Dodge

I've been a loyal Ford owner for more years than I would like to admit but finally bit the bullet and bought my first Dodge...07 QC 4x4 DRW 6.7 and all I can say is WOW! Now I will have to admitt that Ford is up on Dodge with the interior but as far as ride and power Ford is lacking. Still on me first tank of fuel and computer says Im getting 14.3 mpg....not too bad so far. Would like to do a couple of mods when i get a few more miles on it and wonding which programer is best for the 6.7?

Welcome to the Dodge World (The Dark Side?)

I dont know if they have many (or any) chips/programmers out yet. With the new emissions technology on these things you may have to wait a little.

So do you have any pictures? We wanna see [sm=happybounce.gif]whatcha ya got.

currently, there arent any out for the 6.7L.

also I wouldnt trust the overhead right now. with low miles I would say your getting about 2mpg below that. now, get 10K on her and you'll see the mileage go up.

the only issues we have seen so far from the 6.7L has been emissions related, there is a programming flash out the dealers are supposed to do so if you see the check engine light that may be the problem.

At this point, I'd say it's fair to throw the A/C door in there as well. They seem to be a common problem with the new Rams
