Well I pulled the trigger on a 2012 Laramie megacab 3500 4x4 tonight with the HO 6.7. I'm pretty pumped about it! I'll post pics when I get it home

Did you get rid of the 04? Sounds like a nice truck, what color?

Nice choice buddy. Hopefully you bought a G56. Post some pics. 4th gens trucks are awesome trucks. Sure like mine.

Thanks guys. The 04' is going up for sale here asap, just gotta get some pics in the daylight and clean it out. Whatever I get from it is going against the '12.

So far I LOVE this thing, so smooth, quiet and the exhaust brake rocks plain and simple. I can't wait to get the sled trailer behind it and hit the hills! My 04' feels archaic compared to this thing. Dodge has come leaps and bounds in the interior department with these trucks. I won't miss the lifted truck either. I plan to do the deletes in the spring, I wanna enjoy warranty for a bit. For now it'll stay stock, 350hp/800ftlbs torque is plenty

No G56 on this rig Mike, I'm an auto guy. The 68RFE has proven itself in stock form and from my understanding the 6.7HO trucks have beefier internals in the auto transmissions.

Can you actually get a G56 in a HO truck as the Torque was limited to 625 on the non HO trucks.
