I got a scratch commercial in the middle of this video lol
That’s a shady dealership. That’s too much money to pay for shit you are discovering. Nice truck though.
I had a 2010 3500 ram. My brother in law bought a new mega cab. The dealer didn't tell him about the fold down mirrors, when I turned them up he was surprised. That's one reason I like ram the tow mirrors.
Love my 2020 Laramie night edition, my steering was off when i bought mine too . No biggie . Had it aligned
I swear the EPA loves to ruin everything.
That's the exact purpose. To destroy with rules and regulations. Anything from transport, jobs, housing, schools etc.
The clear coats we're already not the greatest to begin with
Ram have the best Interior hands down
Nah i think Chevy and gmc have the best interiors hands down😉
@@jonathanmcdonald9841 you must never got in a new ram because I have a Chevy right now 21 in my ram was a 19 Chevy is behind on technology compared to that round
@@henrythompson5624 obviously bro I was trying to make a joke. I think Chevy and gmc have the cheapest interiors of any vehicle brand.
@@henrythompson5624 also sorry if that sounded rude, I wasn’t trying to be.
@@jonathanmcdonald9841 respect sir 🤜🏽
That’s why trucks are so expensive.....everyone wants this fancy interior and all the bells and whistle‘s. Next thing you’ll want is heated foot pedals to keep your tootsies warm. I drive a plain old SR5 tundra. Nothing fancy at all about it......but knowing how Toyota has a great reputation for their engines and long lasting vehicles...Thats peace of mind. I’ll take that over a fancy interior any day. Good luck with your ram. It is nice looking.
Never thought I would want a truck with so many comfort options. My favorite truck previously was a $2500 1982 F150 that was a complete piece of crap. No AC, blown out dash, surface rust everywhere, couldn’t hear the radio over the sound of the 5.8 Windsor. I loved it. No distractions while driving. That being said, my 2020 Laramie is so comfortable to drive and the cooled seats are on most of the year here in NC. I’ll just have to deal with all the electronics wearing out and the costs associated with it
Good for you. If that's what your happy with the good on you. But just because you drive a base model half of a truck doesnt mean theres anything wrong with someone wanting all the bells and whistles so to say if they can afford it. You kind of sound a little jealous of you ask me. Maybe not. Maybe you have a ton of money and are just a simple kind of man or maybe youd buy that fancy truck and not talk shit about it if you had the money. Only you know that but dont talk shit about someone elses thing.
Toyota frames always rusting out. They can't seem to build a good frame. Not long lasting.
I wouldn't be too scared of the 68rfe. I've got 250k on mine running a full delete, bigger turbo and 37 inch tires. Still shifts perfectly and never runs over 165 degrees. I hope I didn't just jinx myself!
I own 3 diesel ram 2500s and I can attest to this comment
As a longtime tinter(14-15years) and doing a lot of dealership work, most tint shops doing go crazy with cleaning up after themselves because of the liability of scratching paint with a microfiber. I no longer handcut except for the rare occasion so I don’t ever have the runs down the paint issue anymore.
I'm glad I found this video. I found a '22 2500 Mega Cab here in town, and have been considering pulling the trigger. But with the trasmission issues {warranty or not} is not something I want to have to deal with.
There has been a rumor swirling around for a little while now that says Ram is looking to partner up with Allison to make tranny's for them. And if they do that, I will hold out to buy a new truck. A cummins bolted to an allison transmission would be an absolute beast of a truck. Bolt up dana axles and it would last forever.
Very nice truck. I've not been a fan of the 5th gen style front end headlights & grill but yours has sure made it grow on me. Looks mean in black.
I agree with the sellers market. I bought my 2015 F-250 in 2019 with 140k miles then sold it last month with 181k miles for $2,000 more then I bought it for. Great video glad you're posting again!
My dad has a 2021 and he has to bring it back to the dealer for a check engine light after 4,500 miles and the def pump is bad. And I had a couple issues with the NOX sensor in my 2017 when it was new. The only issues I’ve heard with the newer rams is the emissions crap so the best thing to do is make some parts fall off
It's a damn shame they're still having issues with dpf/def emissions equipment. It's been since 2008 when it started you'd think they'd have it right by now.
The newer Ford crew cab you can turn into a danc hall in the back of them. I love the room in the back of the fords.
These are the type of men that dont need to call men when there are man things to do around the house. I used to have to call a man to do man things around my house till I had enough! Now I repair my own home and car. Thank you for the inspiration gentlemen.
I told my husband about your truck. He would love to have one like yours. Its beautiful. Congratulations🚙🚗🚛🚚🚘♥️Thank you for your service. 👨✈️
Just so happy your back man! Keep killing it!
What size leveling kit and tires did you have installed? Just bought a 21 ram 2500 with same night edition package so looking to church up the stance.
Thanks
I had a leveling kit on my ram , and you must realign them !
But hope you're still having fun with the truck. I'll always say with the Ram trucks right now I'm restoring my 2001 Ram diesel 2500. From front to back top-to-bottom is all Gale Banks but just started getting rust along the bottom of the doors so I'm right now stripping the truck and going to Rhino line the whole outside of the truck but my friend owns a body shop so I'm having it professionally done and also having it colored matched to the original paint color which is burgundy red. The motor is so great in that truck and I only have 170k miles on it and it's a 2001 watch is nothing for that.😎👍🇺🇸🍻
Owned all 3
Ended up with the ram and I ain’t lookin back
Ram has definitely had the better Interior and infotainment center since 2014+. I went out in 2015 to find my first brand new truck, compared all three 3/4 ton diesel trucks. Ram looked the most mean/muscle/ sporty, best mpg, best warranty, had the best torque, Ofcourse I went megacab and nothing compares to that… I also think at the time Ramhad the most reliable diesel emissions, I think are easier and cheaper to maintain and work on
Just bought my 6.7 Ram Cummins today. Absolutely a huge step up from my crappy 3.5 ecoboost. My brother and father have diesels and there beasts. I’ve joined the diesel club. 💪💪
Love my 2020 Laramie. No issues at all and I agree the interior is amazing.
Me too💪🏽
@9:00 dude taking a pic of the Ram 😂🔥🔥🔥
Love the ram. I have a 5th gen 1500. Keep an eye on the back window! The plastic around the window can crack and leak.
The 1500s have a different cab... the 2500 still uses the 4th gen cab.
Just bought my second Ram 1500 w/V8 Hemi…2021 Laramie 4x4, 6’4” box (paid just under 56K out the door). Other one is a 2017 Ram 1500 Express 4x4 Quad cab (paid 31K OTD).
Beautiful truck , Just picked up my 2021 2500HD GMC Denali last week.
Excellent choice!
Trash choice
@@michaels.3206 what u drive
I also have a Blacked out truck but a 1500 Limited and just love it and just got it back from getting it ceramic coated ..my opinion Ram builds a better Truck hands down and not the issues I had with Ford.
"It was 2 years old with 39,000" That's when I can afford to buy trucks 😔
Nothing wrong with that, let the first owner take the financial depreciation hit
Same here man lol
@@youtubechangedmyname with the way the truck market is, there is no longer an initial depreciation. It’s almost an initial appreciation. It is smarter to buy new right now than used.
@@wesleydean4228
Currently I would agree ...We actually just got my Wife a brand new Civic because a used one was almost same price ! Crazy times.
@@youtubechangedmyname indeed crazy time sir!
I have had 4 Ram trucks already looking at the new 2021 but when I bought my Ram trucks back in the day new from the dealer my 2003 Ram witch i rolled over, not fun on the Highway coming out of the Midtown Tunnel New York City but also when I got my 2004 Ram new I had to bring the trucks to the body shop because the doors gaps were even. I seen a lot of trucks where the gaps on the doors with ripped rubber. But my 2014 Ram I started to see the light scratches and Haze in the paint. Looking at the new 2021 Rams and the paint looks better but ill have to see but that's also why I never send my trucks through a carwash.
Sweet truck I have a white one just like it. What wheel tire combo are you running. That looks like the same wheels that are on mine but it looks like they are flush with the fender?
You Fellas are some Straight Up Homies, Love the Relationship and Down Home Realness,
The Ram HD is also nicest looking truck. What size tires and wheels are on your Ram?
What tires did your get on that Laramie. Was that part of the package or did you upgrade? Now I’m wondering if my Laramie will come with a set like that. They look good 👍🏻
Buying a truck every 2 years will NEVER save money for anyone ever in history of the world
Man I love the new truck I would like to meet y'all one day. I go to hunts oyster bar in Dothan. I am sure you have been there before.....I love your content
That's a hellauva truck brotha!
just loosen the drag link and turn it a little bit. anytime you go with bigger tires or any type of lift your steering wheel has the tendency to be off a little bit most of the time has nothing to do with alignment.
Alignment for the truck, yes certainly...to adjust the steering wheel position, by turning the drag link. Did you know RAM spot welds the jam nuts to the adjust sleeve? They also state, under no circumstance are you to remove the welds....well RAM, how do we straightened the steering wheel after an alignment?
When I drive my car around slowly the wheel stays straight but when I go straight for a while it goes to the left but drives fine maybe that happens to the dealer
What trans is in your truck?
I’m looking at 2019 3500 with Aisin trans. Deleted and tuned but the dealership won’t warranty anything including the cp4.
Looking at a 2018 f350. Hasn’t been deleted yet.
What do you recommend?
I don’t really want to gamble with the Cummins with no warranty for 91k.
I’m a Ford guy 100% but I love the look of that new truck.
I drive a Ford but, I like them all... Ram has a great looking truck, beautiful interior and one of the best diesel engine option out there. It also has its own major flaws I guess.
Chevy is better bud
@@dylannundahl2886 Why?
That is one clean ass truck you got! It sucks what the EPA has done to vehicle longevity these days. I can't see how a vehicle's paint going to shit in six years is better for the environment than having paint that will last.
So true my 2004 Ram my passenger side door locks stopped working the windows work but the power door locks do not. Also my 2014 Ram I get electrical issues where the check engine light comes on goes off the AC will be on high drops too low then goes right back up to high dash lights also but that's how you know a true Ram owner. But I had the same thing as you basically 2001, 2003, 2004, 2014, and now looking at the new ones. But the 2003 if you went on the firewall where the main computer is you will see 4 plugs and the 3rd one down if you look you will see a dark green wire with a yellow stripe if you cut that wire it takes the governor off the truck but the next year they got smart.
The 68RFE in 19-current in LO Cummins are completely different that 4th gens. The valve bodies, solenoids, and shift quality is are much stronger than in the past. And they can actually hold power unlike in the past. But, I do some heavy towing and had to go up to the 3500 SRW H.O. I think this Ram is going to really surprise you!
So u got the 3500 did it come with the aisin tans
@@toomanyproblems1 yes, Aisin is on all high-output 3500 Cummins.
‘22 Superduty basically gonna get few more color choices, 12” screen. With you on selling for more than what you paid. I made 4K more on trade off my ‘19 Superduty Platinum. Picked up a ‘21 Superduty Tremor platinum. Higher tow rating, 10 speed, limited slip front diff, 5 drive modes, trailer back up assist, every option but no cab clearance lights ( not big fan of those anyways).
You guys do awesome work how can I get my truck done ..How do I go about make an appointment with you guys thanks
So basically you like the interior. Got it. 😂👍I was thinking about getting one myself but I had to rethink considering it is a seller's market and honestly I am not a fan of the big screen. Just me; I am a button/switch person especially when it comes to driving and knowing where things are by feel of hand. Nice ride 🤙🏼!
I own a ram with the Tesla style screen. It has functional buttons outlined around the screen that allow you to control the basic needs like climate, music, etc.
And that screen is an option u can get the smaller one with physical buttons
Love the truck!!!! And the videos!!
So when you purchase a truck like the 2500 dodge ram. Do you get warranty for it or it's not worth it since it's new?
keep the great work man
I would've went with the Ram if I were purchasing a new truck too, its just to nice to pass up. Not to mention It would be nice to see a Ram doing and heavy towing on the channel, especially having a best in class tow rating. That beast is ready to get to work!
I’m stuck between a ram 2500 or a f250 platinum. What would you guys pick?
Just bought my 2nd RAM truck, great performance and best interior in the market.
Tune your 68RFE and up your shift pressures. You wont have the issues that come with the 68s.
Lol good luck
I heard if u tune and delete the 68RFE transmission can’t handle it and thats when u have issues
@@toomanyproblems1 If you tow all the time on tune 5 with a stick 68. of course its gonna go out. be responsible watch temps and improve your shift pressures and it will last longer than it normally would. Not saying it will be bulletproof because thats a lie.
I love that truck Can I ask what level kit you put and size tires ...
I may be wrong but I’m pretty sure your 6.7 Ford had a 6r140 which is a 6 speed not an 8, maybe they had an 8 speed🤷♂️
Great video brother! What percentages again?
Glad I decided to get my truck tinted before having it coated and polished.
Yep that tint definitely set it off.... thanks buddy..
Wheel and tire setup coming for the ram?
Looks pretty good in that black
Literally today sold my 2006 ram 2500 Laramie.
What’s the out the door price I can expect to pay for this truck 2021 you have? Any help helps thx you
Awesome content, can you also tell me where you advertised selling your trucks? Thanks
My steering wheel is off also in my 2014 ram limited Dooley. Also the room on the front driver side the aluminum Alcoa have a crack in it right near the beard and it was leaking air ever since the day I bought it and it took me two years to figure out why it was leaking air. The damage appeared after I took the tire off and I can’t imagine the room being built like that and not having wasted a tire if it was me that had some also the driver side tire war out of that Side in about 23,000 miles and had to be replaced I took it to the crappy dealer in our area and they supposedly aligned it but the steering well is still off I was still wearing tires on the driver side or I’m in passenger side front
I’ve got a new 2020 Ford F-250 platinum 10 speed and I hate that transmission
What do u hate about it
explain
Do you modify your truck engines Ford or dodge? If so what were they?
personally i’m planning on purchasing a duramax simply because the l5p and 10spd allison transmission. i’ve heard so many horror stories with fords engines and rams transmissions.
I used a 2014 3500 until this year. Over 300,000 on it, of 100k was with 400 gallons of water in a bed tank. Over 100k was with the full tank, and 14,000 lbs of trailer hooked up. I honestly don't know what people are doing to those transmissions, because the only major issues I had was 1 turbo, and the def fuckery twice. Didn't burn a drop of oil either, but I was anal about not working the engine hard, until it was at operating temp.
My alingment was off too. The bar was welded so it needs to be broken to adjust. I think this was a common problem.
Knew I recognized that shop, I’m from Dothan man! Gorgeous truck, hopefully can work my way up to it someday, do you daily it? If so how is it?
The Ram trucks have the best dash (IMO) compared to the Chevy and Fords. Ram raised the bar!
2022 gmc will be a lot better
Ford did update there's as well.
Man I've bought 3 new trucks on last 3 years and each time I was dead set on getting a Ram....yes interiors are way ahead, but my main concern were resale and also reliability.....I can careless about a beautiful truck if I am having headaches....its really funny how humans operate when it came time to signing my name I just couldn't do it.....now am looking at my 4th truck and again looking at Ram.....and again having hard time signing my name....I really want too, but if I start having problems and dealership visits I would be absolutely kicking myself in the ass, lol......also getting a good enough deal where the resale won't sting as bad.....the Rams (aside from diesel) really are low on that end.....I really do want one and have cpl lined up....just jumping over that edge without regret.....HAHA
Ford has the best interiors hands down
My 2015 Duramax is on high demand in my area. I got multiple calls from the dealership trying to buy my truck back.
What is a roll up window?
Perfect idea it’s the reason I sold my obs 7.3 because for way less than I sold the obs for I got a 2002 with 130k miles so I got a good deal both ways
My question is why can’t you swap transmissions in new trucks like if you could can you swap that 68rfe to a 10speed 10l90? Or not
What’s been done to your truck? Lifted or leveling kit? Size tires?
Following....
Oh the joys of owning a black truck!
It looks great but it would drive me crazy!
Shiny paint causes stress.
Kool truck, thx for sharing ...
Can’t wait agree more. We’re selling our house right now to move back in with our parents so we can save save save and put down for some land and build our dream house and shop and eventually my dream diesel haha. When something is smart to you don’t listen to anyone else just go with what you believe in.
Hey man, what tires and rims are you running in this video?
Are those 35” tires or 37”. Nice truck. Im leveling mine as well and cant decide if i should jump up to the 37” tires.
I'd stick to 35 inch with a leveling kit. I have a 6 inch lift and still get some minor rubbing with 37s
I bought a ram because I have been a dodge fan all my life, and because I have been a professional mechanic for over 30 years. My first experience with dodge trucks was my 1975 ramcharger and I put that truck through hell as a teenager and it was bulletproof! My second choice would be the older fords but I'm not a fan of the new aluminum body trucks. As far as durability, I worked for a city garage and the Ford durability far exceeded anything Chevrolet had in the fleet, but when we started adding rams to the fleet, they exceeded both. I just bought a 2018 ram, and I had a choice of every other brand, and I chose ram!
What size tire did u put on it.
I've had 2 different suspension setups and on my third set of tires on my Ford and everytime it's been for an alignment after the change, its needed zero adjustment and the wheels never gone crooked. Just saying. Lol
I really miss your 2nd gen videos. I have an '02 3500 that I'm upgrading and many of your videos have helped me greatly so I really appreciate those still being available. Upgrading my truck is much more difficult because I'm in Ukraine and all parts have to come from the US and trust me when I say it gets expensive with shipping and then import fees but when it's finished it will be worth it. The only truck like it in Ukraine :)
hows the build going now lmao
@@JustNotIt9927 Going very well even with the war. Not sure why you typed 'lol,' I'm assuming you think that Putin's army raping, torturing, and murdering innocent civilians is a funny thing yes? Stay behind your computer when you make these comments, it's safer for you.
Hey parodoxz u are really awesome UA-camr keep those awesome videos coming on your channel love watching your channel keep up the great work say safe and healthy with your family i hope this will get better soon I hope for 2021 how does your wife like her new car i can't wait to see your next video on the channel 😀
What’s kind of tires you have on stock , looks amazing
Im looking at the same vehicle. Ive seen a the Silverado High Country but the interior doesn't compare to the Ram standard of luxury
What’s the wheel size in those factory 20’s? That looks good
I am a 5’3 female, I really want a truck to be able to haul stuff around plus they’re fun to drive in and I’m a travel nurse so always movin. Not sure what new 2022 truck to get, I’ve only driven my dads ram and I loved how smooth it felt.. not sure which one to get though or whether to try out ford too🤔
Test drive everything and pick what YOU like. People are too biased towards each manufacturer for varying reasons, so asking people isn’t worth the wasted time.
@@echochamber4420 I ended up buying a 2022 ram limited without even test driving lol. Loveeee it couldn’t be picked a better fit.
Good choice, right decision. Congratulations ma’am 👍🇺🇸
What leveling kit did the dealership put on.?
What size tires and does it rub any?
I did my tint today on my 22 3500 and it feels like a different truck
What percent tint did you get on the ram
Tire specs and leveling kit details please? Truck looks great
What till that transmission goes to crap. how do I know? Because the 2017 we just traded at 62 thousand miles started slipping. Good luck with it. Dodge still need to fix those transmissions
Had my ram leveled and I've had it aligned 5 different times and know one can get it correct and it still pulls a tad to one side finally I said screw it and they all said the new rams are wierd once they are leveled and it does something to the axle where they can get it correct ? Idk but I've had dealership and a ton of reputable businesses tell me the same thing
What years had the CP4? I can’t remember. I have a 17. 🤞🏽
19-20. 21 is a cp3
