Amazing Truck

It simply works. It’s reliable, comfortable and the Hemi takes care of all of my towing needs. The downside? Being a 2500 Mega Cab sometimes parking in tight spots can be a bear, but I knew this before the purchase. In my first year of ownership I’ve driven about 30,000 miles. One of my best vehicle purchases.

Continue issues with the 12" entertainment system that controls several features in the truck. Since the second week of ownership the system has shut down. Dealer keeps telling me they can't replicate the issue. Chrysler is aware of the issue with the 2022 Ram 2500 and Durango's. But all they can do is complete an update. Now I'm receiving injector engine light.

Own a hvac biz. Started with an 04 chevy 2500, traded for a new 2014 ram 2500, cheapest one you can get with the chrome package. I beat the snot outa that thing and had to put a rear u-joint in at 70k. Traded for a 2019, again, cheapest thing i could get with chrome package. Bout to hit 50k and not a blip so far. These things haul ass, 100mph @ 2500rpm and will run that chevy over while dragging a house. Rides alil stiff, but a 2500 should. Handles like a corvette. The bodies are paper thin so easily dinged but worst complaint is having to slam the door sometimes rwice to close it. My friends gmc closes with just a light push and click. I have zero use for 100 buttons and a big screen tv on the dash so dont have the petty issues others have.

Ram does the job, and does it well!

Got my 2500 Laramie less than a year ago. Really love the quality of it and the looks. When I purchased it, it had the best interior out of Ford and Chevy, which was important to me. Bummed out that during the production year I got it, due to the chip shortage they downgraded some packages, although mine has the tow group, it did not come with blind spot monitoring. Which is pretty standard on most trucks now a days. Gas mileage is really low, I knew that going in but I didn’t think it would be so low.. at around 12mpg in city/highway. I do have the 4:10 gears so a factor in this mpg. I love the truck either way, so far so good!

Best truck on the road...until it isnt!

I got the diesel truck itch in the fall of 2020 and my 2015 Platinum F150 was getting a little long in the tooth for my liking so I decided a Ram 2500 would fit the bill. I began my search and found the exact truck I wanted but it was 675 miles away. In December of 2020 trucks were still relatively affordable, at least much more than nowadays! I flew one-way to Dallas to pick up my truck and was blown away when I saw it in person! This Laramie Longhorn Mega cab was drop dead gorgeous, probably the nicest truck I'd ever laid eyes on and I've had plenty of high end trucks. I drove this beauty for a year and a half, trouble free but then just shy of 30K on the odometer, I started getting all kinds of electronic codes and malfunctions. I took it in and on the way to the dealership it went into limp mode. The dealer told me it was throwing about 16 codes so they would need to keep it for a few days. Turns out it needed a new transmission in addition to several electronic fixes. I was stunned because I never towed anything other than a 10' landscape trailer twice! The dealer gave me a loaner and 45 days later my truck had a new transmission! I traded it immediately! In the end, this beautiful truck with a bullet proof Cummins diesel engine had the cursed Dodge transmission that has plagued so many others! For the life of me, I can't understand why they can't make a transmission last longer than 30k miles! This is a well know issue with Ram 2500 trucks and it never gets fixed! Ram trucks are arguably the finest looking and nicest riding 2500 out there but their reliability will always be questionable! Never again unless they sign a deal with Allison!
