    First Time Diesel - 2012 RAM 2500

    Never owned diesel before and just bought 2012 2500 with all bells and whistles.

    The idea was to replace 1/5 ton gasser Ford to tow 7k boat with super heavy tongue weight.

    Love the diesel power, but blew the tranny (68RFE) in 2k.

    Now getting more educated about diesels and towing and such.
