I would first like to say I love this truck, night and day difference between my 2017 tradesman and this bighorn.
So my issue is with the shift points with tow/ haul mode on, and with it off. Between 3rd and 4th, and 4th and 5th. Seem very similar. So when it shifts into 4th to me it should have about 400 more rpm s.
Has anyone experienced this. Thanks.
Well my truck is somewhat different and similar. I have a 2016 Ram 3500 with the HO Cummins and Aisin tranny. Between 5th and 6th in tow mode there is about a 200 RPM difference. For example at 68MPH in sixth the RPM is about 1800. So, between 6th and 4th I see about 400 RPM difference. I just go with what is needed to climb the grade and keep the RPM under control and not “lug” the engine.
