Way gnarly dude!

Cool place to ride! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the great review. My 2011 ram 1500 has had zero prob and zero leaks. It is the best truck i have ever owned. I have only 74000 miles 5.7 hemi😊

Great video 👍 I have a 2010 5.7 4x4 bighorn edition and it only has 68k on the odo. Use it for towing a 23' boat (6,500lbs) on the weekends and every year make a round trip from Melbourne FL to NJ. Have not had any mechanical issues so far. Living 900ft from the beach the biggest problem is corrosion. Had to replace both fenders, rocker panels, and bumpers and had repair work done to the tailgate. Cleaned up the grounding lug on the fender and coated the connection. Bought truck new and purchased the Chrysler factory lifetime warranty ($3,500). Under that warranty the dealer replaced the digital display module (faded out), HVAC blower control and ballast resistor, water pump (water pipe to heater corroded) , both mirrors and the idler pulleys. The one thing I really loveett about this truck is the rear coil suspension. This truck gives a ride better than most cars do. Great on long trips. Hope to get another 15 years out of this truck. Love it

So sigma

In the newer version with 8 speed zf, transmission service is required every 80k km

old video but i see a issue radiator cap i bet needs replaced i see the hose is collapsed

Way cool!! I wanna try it when we come to see you!!

A ram will go a good while with regular maintenance man.

Ok

Knot is on the wrong side by the looks of it

All I see is a dude that needs a busspass not a truck

Did you have any key ignition alarm issues ?

What exhaust is on this truck ?

Keep the videos coming

appreciated... 2014 SLT 5.9 Hemi-owner

Nice review. I have a 2010 Dodge Laramie loaded all options except ram box. I have 31 K miles. Had to replace 3 radios, the alternator, and the left seat heater all under warranty. I also replaced tires with Michelins for old dry rot tires. Have to kept it on a trickle charge I don’t drive it enough and battery will go dead if not charging.

What size is that new front tire?

My 2006 Toyota Tundra has 280k doesn't use a drop of oil....

Planning to get a 10’ ram 1500 5.7 with 255k miles for 6k, any advice prior to purchase?

Just got a stance 27.5 and hit spider for my 2nd time today. You still hitting spider? Super helpful tips btw! What size front tire are you running?

So insurance totalled the truck and then let you keep the truck .also you have to admit you beat on this truck pretty good compared toa everyday driver .

I have a 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 4WD. It now has 471,000 miles. I have replaced A LOT, but it is till going strong.

Your note about front and rear rebound matching up has been a game changer! Has helped in not nose-diving as much in each jump. My rear rebound was too fast.

Try front loading by taping the front break just befor a jump. Gets good air and sets up the rear as it wound take the preload and stay level I race moto cross I can't use boddy wheigt so I jave to break load. Only works at speed and if your new to it can be painfull

Don't know why but a lot of reviews claim Ram trucks have bad reliability, but I always wanted one especially a 6.4 hemi 2500. How reliable are they actually? What are the things that might go wrong in a long run?

2010 big horn 4x4 here with 210k and the only things that I’ve changed is 1 alternator, and a 1 fuel pump besides the normal wear and tear items. No cam/ lifer issues

Howdy! A few things.. I did not stress this enough in the video: I ripped on this truck. I beat on it, full throttle accelerations almost daily. I off-roaded it monthly, mudded, got it stuck, towed with it. I beat the crap out of it. I did not treat it gently. Never had a lifter failure. But I did maintain it. I always waited for the engine to be warm before railing it. And I always changed the oil on it on time, fully syn. Pennzoil Platinum 5W-20. Other common issue I forgot to mention: header bolts break off and cause the exhaust to leak. Mine never did, but when I put on the long tube headers, when removing the old headers I had one bolt shear off. Welded out. Unfortunately at this time I no longer own the truck. Her name is Mrs. Gatsby. I miss her a lot but I have a 45 minute commute to work and sold it in place of a 06 Toyota Corolla manual transmission which has been even more reliable than the truck and also now has 250,000 miles. I miss it a lot, but I am glad I have the Toyota, it is more reliable, gets great MPG, and is a great beater car for work and daily driving. I am still in contact with gentlemen who bought the truck. Its still running great, he moved out of state. It still burns some oil.

More vids with the stance please

I’ve been very pleased with my Ram 1500 so far, despite the bad wrap Chrysler gets overall this has hands down been the most reliable vehicle I’ve ever owned! Thank you Warren Truck Assembly in Detroit, MI for making such an awesome truck!! 😊

My ‘04 Dakota with 3.7 just turned over 300k. Zero clicky-clacky noises. Uses 1 qt oil per 1000 miles. I can live with it. Trans and rear end seem fine. Replaced driveshaft hanger bearing. Sway bar links. Calipers and rotors. U-joints still original. 1 water pump. Replaced leaky radiator. Beyond that, just normal wearing stuff replaced. Planning to drive it till something major breaks.

Took the truck to its full speed 😂

im also at 250k and my water pump went out at around 230k

217k on our 2012 5.7 hemi! So far nothing outside routine maintenance. No hemi tick, has all original parts.

Great video. You really found some big mud holes. Very informative and detailed explanations. Looking for more of your videos.

I got a ram with 160k miles on it. Should I be worried if I get on it once in a while? Did you drive yours like you would a new truck?

Note: FYI the oil does not splash on the cams it is pushed through the oil galleys under pressure from the oil pump. Just a helpful comment, not meant to correct. Thanks for your video.

My 2005 ram 1500 hemi 4x4 has 387000 miles. Only repair was an alternator and ac condensor fan. Always ticked when cold. Uses no oil. Always well maintained.

I have a 2021 Ram 1500 with the 5.7. I appreciate your thorough review and the objectiveness that you approached it with. A lot of people won't point out use case scenarios, for everyone I mean when their application or use might be outside of normal. Thank you.

“If your vehicle is used for police use” means high idle hours.

Thanks for the review. I agree these are awesome trucks., looking for a replacement for my Canadian 2010 Laramie 5,7 2wd. At 360,000 kms it's been an awesomely reliable truck. I still love it and it drives as good as it did when I bought it in 2015. Added Motorkote additive to the oil starting at 250 k and its been great , no ticks or chatters.super quiet motor. Relatively rust free. Chronic issues are tie rod ends basically 50 k kms replace one or the other. Wheel bearings 5 on right 3 on left. Cooling system complete at 260k Love this truck. I'm hunting a rare Breed now for a replacement , A 2018 Longhorn Southgate V6 2wd if I can find it. Avoiding the Eco diesel and Air suspension. To much risk over reward for those of us that like to pile on the milage. Best upgrade on my Truck was a set of Bilstein shocks at 300 k. What an amazing ride, that will be my first upgrade on the next Ram. Oh .. want a cure for the manifold bolts snapping. Add a flex connector at the first coupling after the Y pipe. The issue is the rotation of the motor , at startup and on and off throttle. All that suspended exh pipe is loading the rear undersized manifold bolts. I had one rear stud pass side break at 75k we replaced that one stud. At 100k the driver rear manifold stud sputtered when cold but sealed up on warmup. My mechanic noticed this is the exact same routine on all 5.7 rams. Installed a flex connector after the Y. I've never had an issue again. Finally got rid of that cold puffing at 350k that one driver side rear stud.

I have a 06 ram only has a 3.7 but I got it with 8900 miles on it in 06. I now have 273xxxx. It a 6spd manual. Two wheel. Everything that normally goes out is still all original including clutch. The only thing I changed until recently is radiator and pinion seal. Just about 2 months ago the fuel pump went out. So I can't complain. 4 months ago I bought a 04 ram 4x4 quad cab hemi. Only had 109.500 on it. Love this truck. Great condition. Love that hemi.❤ Part of my retirement plan this year.👍

I have a 2013 Ram with the 5.7 engine and it has never used a drip of oil. I change at 5000 miles and it is always been on the full mark when I change it. Also you talked about using oem oil I have never heard that before for the engine. In the owners manual it says you must use MOPAR trans fluid in the BW 44-44 transfer case. I tried to buy and there was none available where I live. The only option was to use AMSOIL as a replacement.

My dad had an 2008 1500 4.7 and he put on 316,000 miles with no major failure. Just maintenance and these trucks hold together.

Big difference in a warm climate hemi vs a cold climate (-40c) hemi.

Way better than GMC Sierra! 2018 Sierra 1500 had transmission problems at 80,000km! They all seem to have transmission problems. Not to mention bunch of other electrical problems. F150 has engine and transmission problems all over the place. Eco boost engines are shit. Ram is the truck! Period! Plus it’s the smoothest riding pickup truck out there by far!

psst... why are you whispering? lol

My 2005 Ram only had to replace a belt tensioner at 175k, rear sway bar links and a fuel pump at 275,000 miles. Traded it on a 2017 Ecodiesel at 300k. Ecodiesel now at 150k, equally reliable, so far.

_It's crazy how insurance companies will total a vehicle even if the frame is bent a hair._

I've got a 2011 Ram 1500 4x4 Sport crewcab with the 5.7 Hemi and 5 speed auto transmission. Bought it 7 months ago with 93k miles on it. It was a Canadian truck that came through the auction in Detroit, MI. So far, I've only put around 6k miles on it but have had nothing but good experiences with it so far. Being 11 years old, there are some cosmetic blemishes, of course, but having virtually no rust and low miles for the year, I couldn't pass it up!
