PURCHASED a used low miles 2019 Longhorn. Traded in a 2013 Longhorn w 265,000 miles. The new one has a drinking issue, can't get more than 16.5 mpg on hwy. I drive alot of long drives, and my 2013 ram, same 5.7, 3.21, 8 speed trans, ALWAYS got 18 to 20 mpg, unless the wind was strong. I've talked to my dealer, they dont have answers, and how I found this site. I put on 50k miles yr, and couldn't say enough great things on my 2013. I love the upgrades of the 2019, ride, interior, and exterior appeal, but very shocked the exact same engine, tranny and axle its sucking at least 4 mpg more. This truck does set higher, having the off road pkg. 16.5 mpg is over 600 to 1250 miles, and includes 2 lane hwy, which should push the mpg up, at least the old did. If AA can't heal this Hemi, A GMC will. THIS TRUCK avg around 15.5, short drives 14. I'm tracking the gallons, not using the trucks estimates, which hit a high of 17.2, but not accurate. My old Ram was consistent and very, very reliable for 265,000 miles. Fiat has tweaked it, based on so many comments of the THIRST of the 2019 5.7 hemi. Americans like better options, not the old bait and switch, FCA.

TOO many issues for a new vehicle

Bought my truck new and a few months later had to have it towed from the driveway as the key sensor went out and the truck would not detect that there was a key nearby. 3 months later rear window is leaking and carpet is soaked and there is mold growing all throughout the vehicle. Dealership didn't want to resolve issues and had to escalate to FCA and they were no help either. I have owned several RAM trucks since 1995 and this will be my last. Actually, it will be my last FCA product all together as the quality just doesn't match the competitors any longer.

Power is great. 5.7 L Hemi with a 392 rear end will pull my fully loaded 30 foot travel trailer up over a mountain on a Logging Road. Should have waited for the third generation as the 12 inch touch screen on my Limited is less than desirable. Functions maybe more than half the time correctly. Sometimes it will display the satellite radio station and sometimes the screen will be blank. Yes, I checked to see if the screen was on or off. Sometimes it won't change modes from FM to satellite and sometimes it won't change from satellite to anything else. Depending on its mood it might let you change radio stations when the screen is blank but don't count on it. If you want to use voice texting you have to have your smartphone plugged into it with the c to C cable otherwise you can only use predefined messages. The map was out-of-date the moment I pulled it off the lot so you may as well use Google or Waze. Electronically speaking sometimes the aerodynamic mode will engage at the correct speed sometimes it wont. Sometimes if I use the entry exit mode it will stay in entry-exit mode on my 1 hour commute home at speeds about 70 miles an hour. Sometimes the cruise control works and sometimes it doesn't and gives me an error message on the screen. Sometimes the ventilated seat fan is noisy and sometimes it isn't. Really this goes for just about every electronic Gizmo and gadgets this truck has. I'm a gadget person and spend a ton of time in my vehicle. I've got nearly 24,000 miles on it and I bought it last December. Having a 392 rear end the fuel economy is pretty good compared to older vehicles but there is still room for improvement on this 8 speed transmission. It's already had a few recalls address. The sunroof spring that keeps the wind deflector up when the sunroof is open as already broken and I've been waiting on parts for 2 months. Usually the adaptive cruise will work correctly but once in awhile it will surprise you and not in the way you'd like to be surprised. The lane keep assist works okay but sometimes it's willing to correct you on one side and throw you into the river on the other side so you can't rely on it in the way you might think. The voice activated navigation leaves a lot to be desired when it works properly. Every time I'm in the truck and I connect the same phone I've had since I got the truck it asks me if I want to make this phone my favorite. As if I was going to change my mind. I could probably go on and on but I will spare you. I told you about the major things that bother me hopefully these will be worked out in future Generations. For the purpose of accuracy my pickup is not listed on the choices, it's got the 5.6 foot bed with the 5.7 liter Hemi and it's a limited 1500.

Been looking, test driving and pricing all the newest half ton Limited model trucks for weeks. Toyota is dated and has the worst fuel economy. Chevy/GMC just didn't feel modern or updated enough. Ford F-150 is due for an update lacks modern appeal and expensive. Decided on the new Limited 2019 Ram 1500 truck. In my opinion Ram is the best looking exterior and interior 1/2 ton truck on the market. E-torque mpg is incredible. Modern Interior, great interior storage bins. Comfortable seats front and rear. Quality material, U connect works perfect and easy to operate. 12" navigation screen is by far a game changer. Impressive adjustable air ride. Tows my 7500 lb trailer effortlessly. Time will tell on how reliable this new truck will be but, for now my Ram has been the great decision. Also, the 2019 Ram Limited was over $5K cheaper than the comparable Limited F-150 out the door.

I was looking to buy a new Ford lariat I decided out of curiosity to look at a ram longhorn limited and wow I'm glad I did the Interior is Beautiful and high quality I felt like I was driving NA luxurious car Truly the most comfortable Truck I've ever driven The Ford and Chevy were comfortable but the ram ride quality was better The fords 3.5 l Turbo was impressive but I want an 8 cylinder and a truck In how hard does it have to work to pull a trailer The interior in the ford was nice but some materials looked very cheap speading over 65000 on a truck I expect high quality Materials the ram all round looked Expensive and worth the money, If you're considering a new truck look at the new ram you won't be disappointed Proud owner of a new 2019 longhorn Nick M.

Hands down the best value on a truck. I have driven Toyota all my life and when I started shopping Ram was #4 on my list. I am sure glad that I did my research. I don't feel sorry for people that are brand loyal. If you don't do your homework then you can end up not getting the best deal. Man Chevy really needs to step up their game. Cheap cheap cheap is all I see when I look at it after having the Ram and knowing what quality looks like. Toyota has had the same truck since 2009. Ford are too pricey and the ecoboost not every one, but I know enough people who have had the engine to blow up before 100 000 miles due to the turbo pushing the motor too hard . Average about 14-16 mpg in the city in the ram and 18-20 on the Hwy. Which you do not buy a truck for gas mileage for the most part. Some have gotten worse and better. The interior of the ram is so nice with more room than any other of the 4 trucks. Plenty of charging ports. Plenty of storage space all throughout. Love the heated and cooled seats with suede and leather. Love the way it handles the road with no outside noise. Love the interior lights at night time all through the trim of the interior which you can have on in the truck while driving so it's not too dark and you can see all of the inside without it being distracting. High definition backup camera is very nice with the backup and blind spot sensors. If you have trouble backing into things this is the answer for that because it will not let you hit anything. It will automatically stop the truck before impact. Tows my boat and utility trailer like a dream. Also blind spot monitors loads up to right at 20+ ft or so automatically. Nice automatic folding power mirrors with defrost and integrated turn signals. I like it because you can't see the signals in the truck but when people are behind it they really make a difference. Top all that off with the best paint jobs in the market and factory 20 - 22 inch wheels with 15 inch 4 corner disk brakes. To keep from writing a book I will stop at that. Go drive one. You will not be disappointed.

Water leaking cab design flaw

This truck has serious cab water leak problems. I believe there is a design flaw that the dealers cannot fix. I intend to file a Washington State lemon law complaint and force Fiat-Chrysler to take the truck back and refund my purchase price. The truck has 400 miles on it.

What a pile of junk, I believe those that love their 1500 but mine is absolute garbage, 5 vists with little to nothing fixed. Pursing Lemon Law. I cant warn too much against the gamble you take when buying a Dodge. Vehicle, and seat vibration at 60 (already had tires balanced twice) dirt road dust comes in cabin on resercirulation cabin no filter? And recirculation turns off then on automatically every 15 min or so Heater won’t stay on recirculation feet, kicks off intermittently When I floor the accelerator on vehicle the AC air direction changes Radio freezes intermittently but consistently. (back up camera still green screen) Active tune mass module unavailable warning light comes on intermittently Steering wheel (inside horn/airbag or column has loose parts in it on rough road changing rotary shifter from reverse to drive is abrupt. engine died twice (safety concern) Tailgate will not unlatch and binds intermittently Ac cooling insufficient tsb for software? after starting Truck Radio starts then crashed forcing auto restart intermittently after TCM flash truck still shifts incorrectly in the mornings, on quick stop and goes, boggs starts in 2nd then shifts to 1st back to 2nd Rear brakes make moaning noise in the morning when slowly moving in reverse must do its cold first thing in the morning When slowing down in 2nd then accelerating from 5-10 mph trans has major slop and does not engage gear then slams into gear loud Clicking noise under middle of vehicle on start up Back up camera shorts out causing green lines across screen. Previous dealers have already replaced 2 cameras and updated software, Radio may need replacing. Truck lurches forward going from park to drive when cold as soon as starting base model 5.5 in display has no treble control on radio

No Regrets on this Truck

I purchased my 2019 1500 Laramie model in Jan 2019. Got the V8 Hemi with eTorque. Was a little hesitant with the new unproven technology but it’s been great so far. Have around 8K miles now on the truck. Don’t get me wrong, the truck isn’t perfect and it has been in for repairs, but the dealer has been more than helpful both times. Out the door I had terrible squeaky brakes. They tried cleaning them but no results. Ultimately at 1k mikes the dealer replaced the rotors and pads. No issues since. The other larger issue I had with the truck was a break down on the side of the highway. Engine overheated and had to be towed to the dealer. Turned out somehow the water pump belt came off. The dealer had me in a rental within 20 minutes and I was back in my truck 2 days later. Despite these little hiccups, I love the truck. More comfortable than any car I’ve ever owned and performs great. Towed 30’ toyhauler loaded at 8K lbs up the mountain memorial weekend. Didn’t skip a beat getting up the mountain. Hit high winds at one point and the truck did its job engaging the electronic stability control to minimize the sway. I drive mostly highway, so the hadn’t mileage is great. Average 21-23 depending on how much time I spend on city streets.
