Jersey Truck Girl likes the Ram Limited
Just got the Ram Longhorn Limited v8 Hemi with air suspension and all the bells and whistles. I'm a female owner who enjoys driving pick-ups and large SUVs, and looking really cool in them! So I decided to buy this truck, because I got a good deal on it. The rebates/incentives were great and the dealership wanted to move these trucks off their lot. So, instead of buying another SUV or truck, I decided I'll go with the Ram Limited.<br><u>What I love:</u> It has way more features than I could afford in any other comparable vehicle at that price point. It is luxurious inside. I love the technology -- front and back sensors, back up camera, air suspension, navigation, the touch screen system that controls everything is pretty much the best I have ever used. I also love the rotary shifter, power adjustable pedals, heated and cooled seats, push-button start. The detailing, stitching etc inside is simply awesome. The ride is relatively smooth and it handles awful potholed roads quite well.<br><u>What's missing:</u> Daytime running lights! Why can't they put in some cool-looking LED DRLs on a $57,390 MSRP vehicle? Also, missing is a front camera, capless fuel door, xenon headlights, and a soft opening/closing power tailgate that a woman can easily use. It does need more sound insulation, because the wind noise does get into the cabin. The fit and finish needs to be improved, especially with rubber seals and other exterior trim. The truck is a gas guzzler, that's no surprise, but they need to do what Ford did and go aluminium.

One heck of a truck!!!!
I was looking for a newer truck I think I drove everything known to man except the ram. I’m that guy that always says Chrysler’s are junk. A dealer said to me “do me a favor and take this truck for a ride” which was a 2018 ram big horn. I was extremely impressed with the truck which every other make I wasn’t. So once I left there I wanted to see what people said about the ram. I really couldn’t find anything bad. The truck I drove I would’ve bought but it had a bunch of hail damage. I found a 2016 bighorn with the 5.7 hemi. I absolutely love this truck and I plan on having this truck for a long time. I’ve had it now for about 2 months and I seem to love it more everyday. Talk about power this thing moves. I bought a tractor and pulled it home. I have a 20ft dovetail trailer and the tractor is way too heavy for it. That truck pulled it home like it wasn’t even there. I’m extremely impressed with this thing. One day I will write another review when I hit 250k right now it’s close to 60k
This truck tows like a mule, rides like a Cadillac
We leased the 5.7 liter Ram Big Horn Crew for 24 months and 30k miles. I tow a 6,000 lb. Travel Trailer with this truck (the reason we leased it). The lease expires next week and I am leasing another one. This truck is a comfortable, civilized, dependable mule. We live in Northern Michigan where we typically get 120 inches of snow. The 4x4 Auto setting is wonderful. Towing at 65 mph, I typically get 10 mpg, about normal for a rig this size. The difference is in towing through mountains. With the standard 3.21 axle ratio, I have no problem maintaining speed. We read so much about Toyota and Nissan trucks. This Ram has been rock solid dependable, comfortable and capable.
