2015 Ram 2500 Big Horn 2500 4x4

TRUCK WAS TRADED IN FOR A 2018 RAM 2500 4x4 w/ Cummings Diesel. My truck with the 6.4 Hemi wasn't listed so I used the Laramie as the model. My 5th Ram since 2006 including my 2008 dually. I just can't find a better truck for the money. I've seen other comments and really don't know what direction the authors come from. I've driven my truck through water that came up over the chrome step assists.....never had an issue. Back up camera works fine. Takes getting used to when all you have been doing is using mirrors in the past....but I have never had to make more than 3 attempts to hook up to my RV. Plenty of cabin room, has all the gadgets and doodads, (although I do miss the CD player), and it does any job asked of it. It's had a few recalls, but I think every damn car/truck in my neighborhood has too. It's towing capacity is a bit fuzzy. Ram's website says 15k other sites say 16k. Have had issues with tire vibrations at 70-75mph but the dealer is working to resolve. I finally got rid of the factory tires and put Cooper on/off road tires on. Resolved the issue for the most part. I have found that bad dealer service puts a bad taste in customers mouths and they post comments about their vehicles reflecting not so much the vehicle as the dealer. I have had a great dealer, Arrigo in SawGrass, FL, so I guess I'm lucky. I even drive there from FL to have it serviced. Great service advisor,Alana, who ENSURES customer satisfaction. **** After driving from FL to Yellowstone...then to MA I learned that although the 6.4 Hemi is a strong engine, it doesn't like pulling 10k in RV weight up steep hills. Lots of downshifting and high RPM' s. If I had to do it again, I would go back to the 3500 diesel dually I owned. Likely will go to the 3500 again but not the dually. You just need the torque to pull heavy trailers. The built in Jake brake is great. Works well but still puts a strain on the engine on steep declines. Despite this, I'm still a Ram fan.
