I am a noob w/ diesel and w/ the RAM. So, excuse me if this is lame. Anyhow, I love the Cummins set up, it is epic. My first question is; when I'm sitting in park w/ the engine idling and or in drive (stopped) w/ the engine idling I can feel a vibration in the steering wheel, is this normal? It isn't a mean vibration, and you cannot visually see the vibration when looking at the steering wheel, but, if you are touching the steering wheel you can feel into your arms.

My second question is; my truck is a "2500 Heavy Duty", is there a "2500-Non Heavy Duty"? And if there is what is the difference, and or what puts the truck in the class of being badged "Heavy-Duty"?


Thank you in advance.

 

Marketing, plain and simple.

A 2500, being a 3/4 ton pickup (in the good ole days) is already heavy duty.

Company "F" started calling theirs Super Duty, so companies "C" and "D" had to follow suit because poor consumer doesn't know any better and figures Heavy Duty and Super Doody must be better than regular duty.

I think we all have the vibration in the steering wheel. It's there to remind you that you have a beast under the hood
