Rod Posted April 12, 2020 Author Share Posted April 12, 2020 Just now, Kev144 said: The 5.0 performance wise is much better than the 5.3. It almost feels like a huge dog with the programming it has. The 6.2 is the motor to get. 6.2 is awesome I’m not sure how they even sell many 5.3’s for the price difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now it’s more widely available in other trims. Edited April 12, 2020 by Edmo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold Member BOHICA Posted April 12, 2020 Gold Member Share Posted April 12, 2020 (edited) Reason why Ecobooth use more fuel?????? cause the make more powah then the v8’s from GM. Law of physics in a internal combustion engine using gasoline states the more powah you make and use the more gasoline you use Edited April 12, 2020 by BOHICA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuz after 20-30 years of a great product they've made complete shit for the last 8. Now the Chinese electronics suck ass, the 5.3 is a fn valve train eating PoS, the tranny is co-engineered with Ford and takes 3x as long to performs as the ZF but if you want to spend 15k more than a Ram and get the 6.2 you might beat it by a truck length if the fn thing starts in the cold and doesnt fire lifters under the intake manifold. Loved my GM's for years but there's no way I'd pay way more for an inferior product. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
