I think air ride will be the biggest selling point now. That's pretty darn cool, and if the 6.7 is offered with the option of air ride, thats even better!
ok, i KNOW im going to get flamed for this BUT, why does everyone want a smooth caddy like ride out of a 3.4 and 1 ton truck???? wasn't the purpose of a TRUCK to ride kinda stiff? or am i totally off based and in the wrong generation?

In addition to these three engine options, Ram has upgraded the following components to ensure longevity, reliability, fuel economy, and tow/payload capacity.
• Upgraded high efficiency mechanical fan & dual radiators keep the Cummins cool under extreme loads and operating conditions.
• Dual transmission coolers ensure the life of your automatic transmission.
• Improved efficiency intercooler (charge-air-cooler or CAC) with reported 25% better heat dissipation.
• New and improved exhaust brake.
• Larger EGR cooler and the introduction of the SCR system, which requires the use of urea/DEF and yields 10% better fuel economy.
• New, stronger frame material. Frame is fully boxed in the rear, wider in certain sections to reduce roll, and contains 8 cross members.
• Front axle disconnect system for improved fuel economy, massive 11.8" rear axle.
• Upgraded receiver system allows up to 1,800 lbs. tongue weight and 17,000 lbs. conventional towing.
In other words, the 13+ 6.7 is nearly the same as the prior 6.7 except for ECM tuning and emissions systems and it doesn't need its own sub-forum.
