I had the diesel engine. Mileage was unbelievable, really quiet, big and comfortable seats. I’ve owned a BMW, Mercedes, Toyota, Ford, Cadillac, even a Corvette, and this is the one I miss the most.

Have about 1200 miles on my truck and no issues so far. The interior is great. The truck is quiet at highway speeds. The ride is unbelievably comfortable. The sounds system is fantastic. There is a reason this truck has won Motor Trend’s a Truck of the Year 3 years running. It’s great!

My first oil change done by the dealership and a cracked oil pan. 11 days in the shop waiting for a new pan. 9500 miles leaking transmission fluid, pulley rubbing against the transmission line caused a ruptured. 10 days in the shop waiting for a new transmission line.
E-torque Very noisy

It has a constant thumping noise. This happens from 25 MPH to 55 MPH. I live in a small City and that is my most speeds driven. The dealer says it is caused by the e-torque and is normal. I have driven it 1000 miles and it has been to dealer 3 times to fix oil leak and another 3 times to fix closing of split tail gate. Worst new vehicle I have ever owned.

Poorly made, Burns Oil, won't honor the warranty

DO NOT BUY A RAM. IT IS NOT AS ADVERTISED I've had my 2021 Bighorn (Hemi 5.7L, RAM equipment level 2) for over a year, and it has had problems from the beginning. It started with just burning tons of oil, then became surging at idle. The dealership had me do an oil consumption test, where I drive for 1K miles, and they see how much oil I burned. The way that Ferman Dodge in Tampa measures this is as follows: 1) Pull the dipstick 2) Look at the dipstick 3) Without measuring anything, tell the customer and Stellantis that it's burning 1Qt per 1K miles (magically, this is the warranty cutoff, RAM is OK with burning 1Qt per 1K miles) 4) Deny the repair, and give back the truck RAM customer service is no help at all, since they go with whatever Ferman's $15/hr oil change guy says. I SPENT $50K ON THIS TRUCK JUST TO GET TREATED LIKE AN A**H**E. Additionally, you should know that $50K DOESN'T get you: 1) True keyless entry, you will need the key in your hand to push the unlock button 2) Blind Spot monitoring 3) A low range gearbox. Towing something? I hope it's light. 4) Volume adjustment for bluetooth phone calls or navigation. That's right, for $50K, you can't change the volume of a phone call OR guided navigation. It's always at 200 decibels. 5) A bedliner. This seems insignificant, but you're going to spend an additional $500+ to get a bedliner put in (They are standard on Ford and Chevy trucks). Coincidentally, I now have a 2021 Ram Bighorn for sale, if you know anyone who's looking. The dealership says it's in great shape. I'm looking forward to buying my new F-150.

It's a 2022 but far so good with 130 miles

Every bell and whistle I could imagine, including heated steering, rear heated seats, 12" display and HUD. FIRST WORLD PROBLEM: Steering wheel gets too hot and wish there was a temperature adjustment. Rebel rides really nice. I'll need to check back and update my review at 10, 20, and 30 thousand miles.

This review is for a 2021 Laramie trim Hemi e-torque-Short bed w/Off-Road package(it wasn’t in the list here). Caveat-Old truck was a 2001 Ford F-150 SuperCrew-so I understand truck technology has come quite a ways since that purchase. The Ram’s suspension and handling rides incredibly well. Like a luxury sedan. Super quiet with the onboard noise cancellation. Drives smaller than it is. This is a big comfortable bank vault. Gas mileage is utterly horrendous (probably not as bad as the TRX), but this engine moves the truck smartly and effortlessly under all traffic conditions. The avionics/technology package is pretty impressive, especially the giant configurable iPad sized screen on the dash-hard to go back to the smaller screen in my wife’s Grand Cherokee or our other car after using that. As big as this truck is, the mirrors, cameras, sensors and windows work quite well to maneuver efficiently into tight parking spaces.

Amazing truck. Mine came with group 1 I think it's called, plus 33 gal tank, ram box, it's loaded. Interior is stunning. I love everything about this truck except the payment, but such is life.
