it should be. my 03 was included but i chose not to do it. i did get the flash though that ramps the idle up to 1200 rpm if you leave it idling for a bit without touching the brake or the gas feed.

Al, I just came across this at the Cummins QuickServe website:
Clutch Switch Kit for the Dodge Ram Warm Up Faster With Less Idling.
When you need to warm up your engine, you can warm up faster with our Clutch Switch Kit. Designed for 2005 and newer Dodge Ram Turbo Diesels equipped with manual transmissions, the Clutch Switch Kit uses your cruise control button to provide the extra rpm you need. At the touch of a finger, you can increase idle speed up to 1500 rpm. This way, you can warm up your engine much faster with less idling and be ready to roll when you need to. It's Even Better With A Jacobs Exhaust Brake®.
In a Dodge Ram equipped with a Jacobs Exhaust Brake, the Clutch Switch Kit performs even better, with even faster warm-up times. Once your exhaust brake is installed and turned on, the maximum engine speed during idle warm-up will be limited to 1350 rpm, but the idle warm-up capabilities will be significantly increased.
It's Easy To Operate.
Operating the Clutch Switch Kit on Dodge Rams with manual transmissions is easy. As with standard models, the warm-up feature is deactivated when the clutch pedal is depressed. Before putting the transmission into gear and driving, the driver must make sure that the feature has been deactivated and the engine has returned to normal idle speed. A quick glance at the rpm gauge is all that is required.
Supports Anti-Idling Regulation.
If you reside in an area that has idling regulations, you will appreciate the fact that your cab will reach warm-up temperature with less idling.
Every Benefit.
Faster warm-up with less idling Easy to install by dealer Easy to operate Integrated with cruise control on steering wheel Interfaces directly with Electronic Control Module (ECM) Automatically deactivated when clutch pedal is depressed Designed for simplicity and reliability Does not affect engine warranty Designed specifically for the Dodge Ram equipped with manual transmission
So why wait any longer? Ask for Cummins part number 408985100 (Mopar No.
05175417AA). This kit contains all the necessary components for installation.*Warm up fast with our Clutch Switch Kit for Dodge Ram pickups. Every Time. For details, phone 1-800-DIESELS.

I also found a thread on the DTR forum on how to build your own fast idle system for the 2nd gen diesel Rams.
That's cool. I wish ya would find a way to make my nav system take me around NYC instead of through it.
Roy
I too use the old analog nav system. I don't know much about yours. There isn't any way to add stops along the way?
Nope, I called Alpine they make them for DC. Miles has a revised disc, he say's he will take a look at his and let me know. But it don't look good.
Roy
makes my Garmin look better and better.....now if the damn thing would stay stuck to the windshield.
Yup, if this thing would only work like the Garmin. I'm a hair away from sticking mine on the dash. But it piss's me off that they stick this thing on 99% of the srt's and they are so friggin' limited and ya pay a few bucks for them as well.. I'm hoping for a fix so that it works like I think it should. My oldest is on me to sell the Garmin to him but I'm not sure the factory one can be changed with the updated disc. Waitin' on Miles or sombody with a answer.
