NEED MORE TORQUE

[JVR3]

Hey all, I have a 2023 2500 6.4l HEMI. Towing a 6000 lb 30 foot camper, can't keep highway speeds without continuos shifting down to 5th, then 6th gear. Ideas on higher gear torque advancements? I have 410 gears, S&B cold air intake, Maganaflow exhaust. Pathetic performance !

How does it function it "tow/haul" mode?

no difference,

The speed you tow at has a lot to do with how often your transmission shifts. If you're towing over 65 MPH, it's going to do a lot more of that.

If what I read is correct, 429 ft lb of torque at 4000 rpm, and 410 hp at 5600 rpm are the ratings for your truck.

The problem being, both numbers are up there in the RPM range, so constant downshifting and high revving is a given.

It is just how a gas engine works. If you want more torque and less downshifting when towing, trade it for a cummins!! I know how you feel. This is my first hemi, all others have been cummins. When you are used to towing with a cummins, the hemi sucks compared to that. I do enjoy the fast warm up of the hemi since I drive 1 mile to work and that is it. I rarely tow, so I can't justify a cummins anymore, but I sure do miss it everytime I tow the boat or camper with the hemi. Hell, I miss the Cummins evertime I go up a hill and the hemi has to downshift at least 1 if not 2 gears when I'm completely empty!! My cummins powered truck on the same hills wouldn't downshift at all towing 10 to 12k!!!

Smell a troll...........trade it in for a Honda Ridgeline

The cheapest thing to do is realize that's how gas motors operate. It needs to spin to make power, and the drivetrain is designed around that concept. It's ok for it to spin.

If you want to maintain reliability and lope along at just off idle, time for a diesel.

Your truck is performing exactly as it was designed. It's not a diesel, it's a gas Hemi. Stop paying attention to your RPM's and gear and just drive it.
