    I have a 2001 2500 cummins. I would love to upgrade to a 2020 but I would need to get two more jobs, sell one or two of my kids and have the wife get a second job. The price on the new trucks are ridiculous.

      Trucks used to be for the ‘hard working common man’. Now a new diesel will set you back $65K easily. It’s sad

      been buying RAM trucks for the past 2 years and what i have noticed is that the best time to buy a RAM truck is from mid October to the end of the year. This past year i bought a new Ram Rebel with a MSRP of 54k for 38,500 before taxes. That was a great deal. I was not looking at the 2500 then, but started looking in December of 2019 and you the 2019 2500 Leramie 4x4 were selling for about 52k or 54k depending on options. About 15k of MSRP.
      SO just around those times for the deal possible.

    Really like the video. You’re the first reviewer who has ever mentioned the lateral tail wag. I own a 2015, 2016 and 2018 Ram 2500 and they are used quite extensively to tow heavy loads here on our farm in California. They ride incredibly nice but when the bed is loaded with tools and has a fifth wheel, I sometimes experience a rocking boat motion that has occasionally progressed to the point where I need to reduce speed. This has primarily happened with the air suspension coupled with the RamBoxes. I completely agree with your assessment to hold off getting a new truck with the new cab and transmission update with more gears. Personally, because I had a 2013 1500 with the eight speed ZF transmission, I hope Ram decides to go with the ZF transmission. The have such buttery smooth and precise shifting qualities that have to be felt to be believed. Until then, I’ll keep my current 4th gen. trucks even though they have over 100,000 miles on them.

    Thank you for the education on the new Ram cummins. I am debating getting a Ram 6.7L as a camp truck. travel trailer truck vs the new Tundra with the twin turbo V6? Im guessing the price will be similar (high) but I dont know which one will be more reliable? Cummins diesel seem to be expensive to fix when its needed but 1st gen vehicles always seem to have bugs....even toyotas. Im so torn.

    • @JustDiesels
      @JustDiesels  2 роки тому +9

      I’d choose the Cummins for that application! Maintenance is very similar, but the diesel will get significantly better fuel economy and pull that trailer like nothing. There’s definitely some huge advantages to diesel power trains!

      @Mike M after doing research and talking to Friends with Dodge Ram. No thank you sticking with the Duramax. Ram Transmissions are a joke. The 3500 comes with the Aisin but even that shift are weird and sluggish. Ram needs to wake up they are so hard headed about their transmission. The 2500 comes with that Chrysler transmission👎🏼

      I was given one 2021 3500 for field travels. It was great for towing our work trailers. We had a few very minor issues but overall worked great. But I ordered a 2022 Tundra (not really ordered but put down deposit to be in the line) TRD Pro as my personal vehicle. These two are completely different vehicles. It really comes down to what you use them primarily for. I would however advise against Ram 1500 that I briefly had - it remained as a mystery as why the engine would stall for no reason every now and then, and there's no pattern when it happened. I had the Rebel trim, the interior and ride quality was great. But just too worried about its reliability and the fact that the service ppl can't really pinpoint the issue and have it properly fixed.

    Also I’ll say, it SO DIFFICULT to stay at posted speed limits. VERY easy to speed without realizing it.

    Great, informative video on the 2019! So many of the reviewers just repeat the standard bullet points and don't get into actual driving experience. It's literally like they all just copy each other's notes. I love my 2019 2500 Laramie megacab. Pretty much the same truck as the one reviewed but Granite Crystal but on stock wheels/suspension. I don't think I could give up the smooth/quiet ride on stock wheels but that truck does look extremely nice!
    Weird negative for me, why is there no physical 'Off' button for climate control? And the 'Off' button in the 12" screen is so tiny at the bottom of the screen. Also, just to clarify for people, you do not get the Aisin as standard on a 3500 and both Cummins engines are CGI blocks, not just the high output.

      Happy to help! Think twice about that AEV setup though. There’s lots of better suspension systems on the market, and you can still combine them with the AEV body styling for an awesome look WITH the function to back it up!

      @@JustDiesels I'd be curious to know more - one big thing I like about the AEV setup is that it allows for 40" tires on 3" lift, thanks to the revised fenders. I also like the idea of warranty, which as I understand from my local dealer, purchasing the full build through the dealer means there's only one place to turn to if something goes wrong: them. I've modded a LOT of cars/trucks over the years, working on them myself and having shops do a lot of the work, always piecing together the truck from lots of different sources for parts. At the end of the day, something always breaks, and that's when the finger pointing starts (usually back at the owner, as I've experienced). The simplicity of a very capable kit that has a warranty is really appealing to me. One approach would be to simply go with the AEV kit, use it as much as I can, and if I find it limits what I'd like to do, I can explore another pathway then. Or, I can wait until the warranty expires and then start pulling in other parts.

      The coil suspension on these trucks is severely oversized from the half ton coils. I max out the rear axle rating on my 19 2500 pretty regularly and have been rather impressed with the rear coils. This truck feels more stable and handles the weight better then my old duramax.

    Good review. Just to let everyone know that we haul a 15,000lb gooseneck, cross country all the time and it's stable as can be. Max tow on my 2500 is nearly 20,000lbs, so there is no need for a 3500 unless you are regularly hauling 17,000+.

      My 2019 Cummins 2500 has a payload of 2069lbs, my 8,000lb empty, 5th has a tongue weight of 1,650lbs, I can barely slide in under the payload restriction. I'd suggest you don't check the pin weight of your 15,000lb trailer!! Yes you can certainly pull it but will your insurance cover you in an accident!!

    • @islandbunny07
      @islandbunny07 2 роки тому

      @Jonathan Tripp That's more of a problem with the design of 5th wheel campers. With gooseneck flatbeds and livestock haulers etc, you are able to shift the load weight so you achieve an appropriate tongue weight. If we are talking 5th wheels, you probably maxing out with an 11,000lb trailer plus kit.

While i am sure the 3500 would be better but that's expected, its a heavier duty truck.
