Forgetting trim levels, there are lit- erally hundreds of ways to fi t out light pickups due to the myriad of needs and uses. A new wrinkle these days are ever- rising fuel/operating costs and that means combining expected brawn with new levels of weight saving and fuel economy. It starts with the use of an eight- speed automatic transmission, the fi rst I know of is a pickup truck. The TorqueFlite 8 also does away with column or fl oor shifters supplant- ed by a rotary knob mounted to the left of the centre stack. This "e-shift' dial is simple to see and use even with work gloves on. Appreciated by those who know trucks is the ability to shift from Re- verse to Drive quickly when towing or navigating in snow, mud, loading ramps, work sites and parking lots. The eight-speed is part of a new thermal management system that quickly raises the temperatures of the transmission and engine. Ram engi- neers found that heating fl uids as soon as possible improved fuel effi ciency by 1.7 per cent purely by cutting parasitic losses. The eight-speed will be standard on the new 3.6-litre V6 and will be option- ally available on the 5.7-litre Hemi V8 later this year. The quad cam V6 is used widely across the Chrysler model lineup and, in the Ram, it produces 305 hp and 269 lb/ft of torque. More importantly, it offers 42 per cent more horses, 11 per cent more torque and an expected 22 per cent better fuel economy than the 3.7-litre V6 it replaces. Offi cial fuel ratings were still being calculated at this writing but Ram ex- ecutives expect the 3.6-litre with eight- speed will be the segment leader in light trucks beating out current leader, Ford F-150 with its 3.7-litre V6. The second engine choice is the proven overhead valve 5.7-litre Hemi V8 with 395 hp and 407 lb/ft of torque with a stated 12 per cent fuel con- sumption improvement over the 2012 version of the Hemi. Standard trans- mission is a six-speed automatic. Lastly is the 4.7-litre SOHC V8 with 310 hp and 330 lb/ft of torque mated to a six-speed automatic and aimed pri- marily at fl eet sales. Ram is offered in 4X2 and 4X2 ver- sions in short and long boxes, three cabs sizes (Regular, Quad and Crew) and no less then seven trim levels (SXT, SLT, Outdoorsman, Big Horn, Sport, Laramie and Laramie Longhorn). Starting price for the base SLT 4.7- litre is $26,995; but because of the hundreds of ways to mix and match, overall pricing is too complicated to detail here. This is what Chrysler Canada told me offi cially. "Essentially, the V6 with eight-speed By JIM ROBINSON WheelsTalk.com Metroland Media Group Although there are only minor changes to the exterior of the 2013 Ram 1500 pickups, there are a number of changes to the mechanicals and running gear not the least of which is an eight-speed automatic transmission.
