Debating getting a new truck. Have 2013 f150 crew cab. Was looking at jeep trucks but drove the Ram Rebel today and really liked it. Also like the Laramie. Just not sure if I want to keep a big truck.

They are nice trucks

I have a 2012 Laramie and have been happy with it from day one. It hasn't been in the shop for anything other than maintenance.

Are there any options you wish you got. Debating on split tailgate and ram box.

I have a 19 ram. I’m extremely surprised by the fuel mileage I’m getting. I’m getting 22 Hwy which is amazing for a big V8. I’m very satisfied with my purchase

I had a 13 Ram I just happened to test drive after having my mind set on Ford. Drove it and loved it. Kept it until I got a work car in 18 and zero issues. Would buy again.

Had a 19 Laramie, now have a 20 Rebel. Fantastic truck. No regrets.

I got an Tacoma. I highly recommend this truck.

I don’t drive one, but I work at a CDJR dealership. If you have any specific questions, I can prolly answer them.

If you buy a Ram. Do not get a V8 gas engine with the Variable valve setup.
They go bad constantly, specifically the lifters. Gas V8s from GM have the same issue.
My brother in law's 2019 Ram has been in the shop twice in the last 2 months. And my mom's 2019 Yukon XL just had it's engine replaced. Both have less than 30,000 miles.
If you can get a 2500 with a diesel, do it. All day. The Ram is a great truck outside of the 1 issue with their variable valve system.
Edit: I have a 2014 Ram with the V6. Been a fantastic truck. Before that I had an 06 Ram, loved it as well.

2020 Ecodiesel. I get a stiffie when I look at the dash and see an average of 27 mpg. 20,000 miles no issues. It's a beast. Hope it keeps up.

I hear they call it a Dodge Ram because you can either dodge the draft or get rammed by dudes

Ram is a great looking truck. Never drove one but I’d buy one
Posted on 9/29/20 at 10:02 pm to Shotgun Willie
Loving mine.

Well with that kind of history, the debate is settled.

This guy knows. Their motors are shite, very few make it past 100k without needing a rebuild or replace.

2020 Limited owner here. Love the truck. Nicer interior, much better ride and looks better than all the other trucks on the road right now!!!! Just hope it holds up for the long haul.

Would look 1000x better without the parking lot slicks. Sorry, but those tires belong on a car.

It looks like all the engine options have this. First I've heard of this. I thought the Hemis were good engines.
