^^^im looking at both......

You looking at Boss's to huh?? LOL. There are a few 2012's still around where I live and they are in the low 40's. I like the new 2013's though.

You get a lot from the Boss...they are amazing cars.

If you have never driven a new 5.0 with an auto, I can see what you are saying, but its not anything to desire.
I HATE the way they shift, even when properly tuned and dialed in, it just feels weird to me. Also, no paddle shifters, FAIL.

I've driven the 5.0 Automatic, and even as bad as it is, its still hugely preferable to a manual (a shitbox AOD is preferable to shifting myself). Plus Ford says its quicker then the manual in the 1/4, so it must be doing something right. The lack of paddles or a manual mode is a major omission, but to most people, me included, its not a big deal. I almost never use the paddles or manual mode on the V. Its too slow, and doesn't match revs, whats the point?

Meh, different strokes

Until I got my 4L60E equipped Z28, I swore I'd never own an automatic, but that was after being brought up on 5.0's with craptastic AODs in them. At least a GM auto feels like it works properly

I guess. My Mustang was stick, hated it. Now I won't get one under any circumstances. If I was willing I'd be driving a ZR1 or Viper right now. Just not.

Hey mikel

Are we there yet? Are we there yet? are we there yet?

Just checking in. Its been a while since I last bugged you. Based on what you guys are seeing will the 2011 and 2012 programmers be the same?

Well If that's all that's holding you back, buy the ZR-1 and I'll be your chauffeur, I'll work for free! Lol.

Sadly, if I had the money I put in my jeep (60k+), and my trucks I could've bought a ZR-1 cash at the age of 26....maybe 1 of these days

Maybe I should not ask, I have just not checked the web site for six months but summer is coming just want to do some upgrades and this whole tuner thing is holding everyone backWhat does close mean.......I know you guys are working hard on this but any time frame at all?

Mike - when you guys crack the code and release a program for the 2011 Rams with the Hemi, can the U7137 Predator tuner be updated to be compatible with the tune or will this require a new tuner? Thanks.

Not likely that the Predator will work, no.

Thanks for the fast response. So there will be an entirely new programmer just for the 2011-12 trucks?

Or will the inTune or Trinity work? Thanks for your help.

yes, it will be intune and trinity.

Thanks Mike. I know I'm not alone when I say I really appreciate your guys' hard work in trying to crack the code.
