So exactly which trucks came with MDS to start? Didn't the 04's have the "ports" for it, but the 05's were the first year to have it in some of them? Seems like I never see an 05 with it but I thought they had it in some? Just curious. Of course the trucks is what I am talking about.

MDS started in 05 with the LX 5.7 cars. Then in 06, the Ram 1500s (excluding 1500 mega) all have MDS. NO trucks earlier than 06 ever had MDS. It was a model year specific change, not a phase in deal. And as far as i know the "5.7 blocks" from 05 and newer are all "machined" for it.

Cool. That clears it up. I knew it was something like that.

I never knew that. I know the '05 Ram is the last 5.7 without the MDS system. When I was ready to buy my truck I did my homework and decided to go ahead and get an '05 model for that reason instead of waiting for the '06.

I knew the 04/05's were, but I guess I didn't realize the 03 was....
 That would make sense though, otherwise they would have been changing the motor from one year to the next.Amsoil Dealer (Greenwood, IN) http://www.lubedealer.com/indyoilguy/ Ph#: 317-383-6061 05 Atlantic Blue 1500 4x4 QC Superchips, Dynomax Bullett, 3rd Strike intake, Taylor Shorties, NGK 2314 Iridium plugs, Amsoil'd out, Tinted windows, torsion lifted, debadged, billet antenna, billet fuel door, Billet front/rear cup holders, tinted 3rd brake light, Ventshades, Line-X, Alpine 9885, Kicker KS series 5.25, and 6.5 components, Kicker KX350.2 amp, Kicker 12" DVC Comp VR Future Dodge Challenger owner...if I am rich or gas prices drop....

You are correct. In versions without MDS, they simply put a plastic plug in the port. My 03 block has them. Anyone with MDS can simply remove the controllers and put thost plastic plugs in, and eliminate it, or just turn it off with Superchips or Diablo tuners.
