6.7 driving impressions?
Has anybody else besides Luke driven one of the new 6.7 liter trucks yet? I'm really curious how much the new 6 speed auto putrs the power to the ground!

EB290 has one. But remember, these are the chassis cabs with the Aisin 6 speeds that are out now. The new Orion 68RFE transmission is not out yet to my knowledge. Should be on sale after the first of the year.

I drove one yesterday. Very impressed. Might put the 6 speed manual out of business.

Five years ago I was the most die hard manual transmission fan you could find. After having spent quite a few miles behind the wheel of the new 6.7/Aisin combo, I don't think I'd ever own another manual. An auto that can run and pull with or better than a manual, and has a longer warranty, is the way to go in my book. This is gonna be a hard engine and tranny combo to beat. It's that good.

Lets make sure we are on the same page here. The Aisin is only available in the cab&chassis. In the pick-up it will be a Dodge made 6-speed auto. The transmission is going to be $1555 option. So about $555 more than a 48re, so just take the price of what a current truck with a 48re is and add another $500 or so and that should get you pretty close.

Production should start in about a month, right after they come back from Christmas and new years break. I should be able to order them any day.

Another question:
Did you guys drive it enough to get an idea of highway fuel milage?
If so, please give details (what speed, 2wd or 4wd truck...).
Thanks in advance.
