Holding up to everything

Bought the base tradesman model with the upgraded electronics package making it more like an SLT on the interior. integrated brake controller is awesome and everything continues to work as it should. This was one of the first years with the spring suspension in the rear and it has held up to all towing and payload requirements without blinking. The ride quality is still a 3/4 ton but far superior to the other rams with springs in the rear. If you don't need the extra payload of the leafs then personally i would stick with the springs for daily ride quality. The only time i have seen the distance between my bed and tire gap shrink is with one of my 1950's era steel equipment trailers which is none too light in the hitch weight department. overall tows well - nice and smooth - though if you live in a word of elevation changes my guess is you would be disapointed with high speed towing as the engine really needs to work at high speeds to get up hills and maintain a set speed. It still does the job but it is working hard. flat and mild elevation towing with no hassle. towing mirrors add great visibility - i can park this easier than my daily driver. Factory tires are marginal. headlights dim. easily dents and scratches. mechanically rock solid. 4x4 low is awesome for heavy duty truck work. stock front bumper accepts the powerwagon winch kit without modification. bought mine new in 2014 with solid factory incentives and i can still trade it in for more than i owe on it. even though i knew better i got suckered into adding extra warranties at the last minute - money wasted - the truck has had no issues despite being put through a great deal of abuse. Makes my dad angry that my little gas engine can out tow his mid 00's diesel.

Known issues without fixes from Ram

I have a 2015 Ram 2500 with the Cummings diesel and have many recalls and issues with the DEF system the computer system and issues with the lug nuts and studs. The dealership say that all the 8 nut systems are hard to get the nuts off and on and that this has been like that for many years. Working with aircraft and auto parts, I know that this is either defective parts or poor maintenance by over tightening with impact tools rather than using a torque wrench as they should do. And to replace those nuts, it cost $8-10 per nut and about the same for the studs. I have had to have my catalytic converter, my DEF pump and had my computer reprogrammed many time for a number of issues. I think that this should be classified as a lemon.

if your looking for a truck that can do it all, this is it. my only complaint is the gas mileage 12mpg average. to me "RAM has always said get out of my way" I have owned several RAM's all but this one 3500's diesel.

Rides and drives like a luxury vehicle. Unlimited amounts of power with the 6.7l diesel. I would recommend this truck to anyone.
