AlfaOBD isn't a device. You may be looking at what the MX bluetooth thingy can and can't do.

It's "MXOBDII+" or something to that effect. Anyway, don't skimp on that part. Especially since with a '15 you won't need a bypass cable.

I'm pretty sure that AlfaOBD has that function...in addition to the huge amount of other things that can be done with that program. You'll also need something to plug into the port. OBDII+ I think a good one is called.

The only Hellcat I'd buy used is my own. Or maybe my girlfriend's.

Supposedly the Challenger will be, while the Charger remains doormant.

Don't forget that people are blowing up transfer cases (Trackhawk) and front axles (TRX) as it is. Without any help from Tazer.

Maybe to win over some of the crowd that sees nothing wrong with front tire burnouts?

You get a banner or a door prize, but not both.

As I recall, they're not real Allisons anymore, other than by name.

What says the owners manual? I don't have ours handy.

Plenty of NV4500 and subsequent manuals have died behind Cummins engines. On the later versions (G 56) it was the clutch that was the weak point...with derated engines, because that's all you got with a stick shift.

I must admit that I don't even have "stock power" in my 3500. It's a cab and chassis, so it's down rated even compared to a standard output engine. Then again, the highest total weight it has had to deal with so far here in the Rockies was 39,000 lbs.

Thanks, that's what I suspected. She'll likely be trying, digging deeper into the maze of electronics, later today.

Apparently they're reliable enough to go some 450,000+ miles with just basic fluid changes. And that's with CVW up to the 40,000 lb. range. I think that's good enough. Although, some do complain about how they shift. Those "some" are the ones who use a diesel pickup with the Aisin as a car...

I'd like to hear what's wrong with the Aisin transmission.

Funny that you mention luxury being useful, and on bad roads. Yesterday I helped my girlfriend add another slow 20 miles on her new car, to break the gears in. In normal fashion, we do that on our "home" road, which has very little traffic (especially before tourist season kicks in), but the...

I have no use for "luxury". I prefer function and simplicity. Which is hard to come by these days. TRX most fun? Yeah, it definitely is. But fastest?!? That's the one thing I hate about it....when you go to pass someone the damn thing cuts out at a measly 118 mph. Blasphemy. Stop light to...

I would imagine that there's some sort of Nissan or Toyota pickup that can approach those mileage numbers, but much like I didn't buy a V6 Challenger (oh, wait, I did get one of those turds, too) I didn't get a TRX to get some kind of good mileage. It gets me up to 15, maybe 16, the way I drive...

That's cute.

Generally I like Granite in order to stay below the radar as much as possible, figuratively and literally, but with a pickup I figured it'd mix in better being white. And so far it seems to have worked. Of course, I've done a few things to make it look less than a TRX and more like a Rebel.
