Piston Slap: The Importance of Enlightened Diagnoses

Sajeev, I enjoy your TTAC contributions very much. I have a 2002 Dodge Ram with a 5.9 liter V8. Starts every time and idles fine initially. But just when it transitions over from the cold start sequence to Normal running it starts to act as if it is gasping for air.

Chris "If" our performance future is electric"??? Make no mistake..it is. There are a plenty of examples of performance EV's that beat the crap out of most ICE cars. My Kia EV6 GT will beat most cars on the road in a straight line (11.3 s 1/4 mile- best pass). This is only the beginning. When a Tesla Plaid, at around $73K used can beat most dedicated races cars...the future is upon us. Why fight it.
Mister Unless I'm mistaken, there isn't a single-cab version in the current generation of RAM trucks. So I guess Stellantis is giving up the bottom dollar fleet market entirely.
Tailpipe Tommy "Easier navigation functionality." You know what's easy? iDrive 6/7. Peak functionality, actual knobs/ buttons, fast, intuitive, not buggy. Everything after 7 has been an unmitigated disaster. Can't wait for iDrive 9, when they completely switch hardware & software platforms and base it all on Android Auto OS. Also the screen will probably be so big that it will block the driver's view out of the car.
UncleAL I hereby present my offer to buy Fisker, in all cash, for a dollar two ninety !Or, I can just max out my credit card ($1,000 limit)....
FreedMike No way anyone could have seen this coming.
