Olive green Laramie sport level 2 options package with a few extras. The bad: the exterior styling is not as bold or aggressive looking, I plan a 3/2 leveling kit to improve stance. 23 gallon fuel tank is a little small. Seat control pack falls off daily, and upholstery tab on passenger seat pops off often. The good: fuel economy is better than previous models and I like the engine cut off at stop option. The great: the interior is ridiculously comfortable and I really like the seat styling with the velvet look. Bucket seat version console design is also excellent as is the gauge set up and steering wheel controls are highly intuitive. The 12 inch screen and phone integration are great, but it's weird not having knobs and dials, but I'm liking it. Overall the interior steals the show and rivals any luxury car on the market. The ride: effortless power, the 395 horse etorque handles the MT mountains like a flat surface and you don't feel gear changes. I switched back to a 1500 from a 4runner, this truck makes that feel like a lumber wagon in comparison. Integrated trailer brakes, a zoom function on the camera make towing and hitching easy. Overall the only reason it's a 4 rather than a 5 are the stance/ride height and standard tank size.

Really Bad Mileage, 13 MPG on the Highway

Right now my 2021 RAM 1500 Limited 4x4 averaged 13.1 MPG on the highway, that's is correct. Even less in the city driving. Two dealerships cannot find any issue because there isn't any codes popping up. Purchased the truck for all the bells and whistles has 33 gallon tank, can barely get 400 miles. My monthly ride from San Antonio, TX to Jena, LA is 498 miles. My 2018 Silverado w/6.2L 4x4 and a 26 Gallon tank could make the trip all the way with 2 gallons to spare, When I filled up in Pineville coming back. Now Dodge Customer Service is telling that because they can't find an issue, i.e. a error code, there's nothing they can do about it.

I have always been a chevy guy owning two brand new chevy 1500s both lifted off the lot and one duramax 2500. Drive them until they're done as I drive 200 miles a day for almost two decades. Finally needed a new truck and figured I would test drive a ram as I have had numerous incidents with the unprofessional actions with chevys service department during times I had mechanical issues with chevy.... Anyway I loved the 2021 dodge ram 1500 Laramie I test drove, it was sooooo smooth and so comfortable. I did end up buying it in silver and have had it 3 months now. Have just hit 11k miles and have had absolutely no problems with this truck. Would definitely recommend this truck.

RAM 1500 Limited

I have had several Ram trucks. My last was a 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 Big Horn. In the 10 years I owned it all I had to do was routine maintenance as stated in the owners manual. It was simply oil, filters, tires and one battery. I knew how that truck was comfortable to ride in and a pleasure to drive. Our 2021 Ram 1500 limited rode and drove even better. It was very quite on highway driving and had the power when asked for. I noticed it has better gas mileage then my 2009 Ram. The new truck has more capability and features then my old truck. The interior is superior. The seats extremely comfortable. I have had three back surgeries and the seats are important and these seats will help me in long trips. You would have to see all the capabilities the UCONNECT system has. Way too many to list but the upgrades to the system makes motoring easier. I would not only recommend the new Ram but I would put it up against any of the other competitors. As I said it has the looks, rides and up graded technology to make it the best truck you could own. I will have this truck for the next plus ten years as my 2009. I’m sure future owners will be as happy as I am with my new Ram. One last thing you will see that you get more for your money with a Ram then any other truck.

Dominant half ton truck

Shopped Ford XLT and Chevrolet LTZ before settling on Ram Laramie. The Laramie, in my opinion, is the dominant half ton truck. All trucks was comparable in pricing, Ford couldn’t compete in price, neither did Chevrolet. I traded in a 2020 F150 XLT that actually stickered more the the Ram Laramie and the Ford didn’t have near the options or ride quality. I used Motorttrend reviews for comparison and they were spot on. The Chevrolet LTZ was a nice ride, however my dealer Greenway Ram Florence Alabama beat their deal by $9,000 dollars. Very satisfied with this Ram.
