    Personally I think it's super smart that they have both the body styles running side by side. Gives the consumer more choice and the 4th gen is just taking in money at this point

    Just traded a 2019 2WD Longhorn in for a 2020 4WD Longhorn with air ride and Ram boxes. It's safe to say I really like this truck. The black and new saddle interior sold me almost 2 years ago.

    Went to buy a different brand for 2021, and ended up with another RAM. They drive sporty, and the interior lets you know they didn’t cheap out on quality. I’ve had great reliability with RAM since 2009.

    I drove GM pickups for the last 25 years, owning one or more of each generation of trucks. My most recent, 2017 LTZ with the notorious 8L90 transmission. I was fed up with the persistent vibration, even after a complete suspension replacement and all driveline components except the power plant and transmission. I decided to test drive one of every 1/2 ton truck available currently. The Ram won, hands down. I purchased a 2021 Ram Laramie, making it my first Mopar since I sold my 1972 Roadrunner. So far I am impressed. I am in the process of personalizing it with mods, lift, wheels and tires etc.
    FYI I drove a 2021 Silverado a s they still ride like dookie.

      I was in the same boat as you. Wow…. 10 years ago I would say. No Ram for me. As I see and listen to other Ram owners and the great reliability they have had I figured hey. Try one out. I got 2019 Longhorn and so far will never look back. Great truck by far. Had mostly GM. Tired of the same issues. Had a couple Fords. Not bad and a little better.

    The 2012 crew cab 4x
    The 21 crew 4x
    And now have the 22 crew built to serve edition
    My 2012 I put through hell
    Bounced through the mountains in Colorado following the jeeps. And never had a problem that I didn’t cause my self
    The 22 I have is absolutely amazing. It’s just a stepped up big horn but I love every aspect of it
    From the orange accent interior to the alpine sound system
    The coil suspension rides like a dream. It tows my camper with zero issues
    I do have the Etorque which so far I don’t see any issues
    Absolutely love the fifth gen but the fourth gen is just as good and depending where on how you build it. The fourth gens can look way meaner ( fiber weed fenders) for instance

Better than GM of course. Lifter springs are breaking on the eco boost. Cam phaser failures. Transmission issue also. I’m sure they will work out the bugs but it is an issue. Seen it first hand. I would prefer the coyote myself but they have issues also. It’s a matter of picking your poison really on all brands. As for on board generator is an excellent idea. Myself I rather have a Honda generator. Cheaper and more reliable for all needs. My Honda is still working after 20 years.

    No hype for me. RAM is awful they’re pretty but that’s is it. Have you seen the recalls on these? They have no quality. None. The transmission in any RAM has never been any good. I will never consider FIAT product. I absolutely hate all new ram pickups! Just because it looks pretty and has a big screen doesn’t mean it’s any good at doing what trucks need to do! Even then this is still a mid-cycle refresh the cab is the same as the 2002!! These trucks cannot claim number one in anything, because they simply didn’t try!! What is up with that?!! A new truck that the manufacturer just threw together? No. Never will I consider it. FIAT can barely build their micro- cars right! Why do I want them building my truck? Awful FIAT just awful.
