2019/2020 Ram Diesel
Is anyone on this board driving the Cummins 1000 ft-lb Ram? If so, any feedback?

Not me, I only had a 2013 with 800ftlbs of torque. It was the first year of Tier 4b emissions on the 6.7 which is fundamentally the same emissions package on them now.
The exhaust brake was great.
The power was great.
Towing mileage was meh, unloaded highway mileage was significantly better than my 04.5 Cummins.
Going cross-country with a sled deck was a judgment error.
DEF consumption was ok. Once I found the DEF pump at the truck stop, it was way cheaper.
The 6spd auto (68RE) was way better than the 4spd (48RE) auto.
Getting a long box crew cab was not a good decision (except for mounting the sled deck).
Mine wasn't RAM tough, or even whitetail doe tough. The thin bodywork is easily compromised by a suicidal deer at full gallop.
