I bought a 2020 Laramie 4x4 5.7 e-torque 3.73 3 weeks ago. I got it for $12k off msrp and zero interest. My only complaint is the MPG. I literally baby the pedal and the best I can do is 16.5 mpg. My 2015 Laramie that I traded in with 5.7L and 3.73 would do 20 mpg easily on the hwy. I averaged 17 mpg in the winter with that truck. I hope that my MPG goes up as it breaks in and after I do the first oil change. Awesome trucks though! Ram is way ahead in the game for sure.
Update: It's now been almost 2 months now and I have almost 4k on it now. I changed the oil at 2,500 with Pennzoil ultra platinum. With mostly highway driving, I am now averaging 17.5 mpg. I just ordered the Revel performance daystar leveling kit with the links. I'm sure my mpg will go down when I can convince the wife to let me get new tires. I plan to go with 295/60R20 or 35/11.50/20 on my factory Laramie rims.
I just bought this exact truck today with 3.2mi on it. does not have those goofy mirrors either. I am in love bro with this truck. Went from 17 GMC Sierra Denali to this. Giant Step up.
Nice review JB! I reviewed one of these a while back. Just picked up a ecodiesel and did a 4” bds with air suspension on my channel. The air suspension on the 1500 is awesome.
I own a 2017 Limited, which I traded a 2016 Laramie for. YES, the Limited is a gorgeous level of trim, but not so much that I would have paid an additional $7,000 for a better quality of leather, floor mats and dash trim if I had bought the truck new over a Laramie for the same options.
Those tires are so weak looking but the truck is gorgeous. They should have done some sort of telescoping mirrors so they're tuck in when you're not towing.
Sweet looking truck. It is all about the look as my brother would say. Has a ton of very cool options. I like that blacked out look for sure. Thanks for sharing JB.
I wish I could do a video on the GMC Sierra HD. They have one close to me that is blacked out and it looks amazing! maybe I will ask to do a video one day! Thanks for sharing Ric 👍🏾
"I don't want that in my car" Lol me neither man, saved around $3k by NOT getting Limited Level 1 on mine cause I would never use that adaptive cruise crap, I'll drive my car myself thanks very much 😆
That is a good looking truck, reliability scares me, though. I'm shopping as the lease on my 18 f-150 is up in 6 months. My last 2 F-150's have had some major issues, my 15's doors wouldn't close when it got below freezing and my current 18's engine (5.0) is using a lot of oil - the fix? Ford is replacing the motors. I've heard horror stories about Ram reliability, but GM is also questionable. Have to see what Ford does for 21.
@JB Reviews, so i am in the market for a fully loaded night edition Laramie, but since the price gets up there, (V8 etorque engine) i was thinking why not just do the limited? However i do like that granite color they offer with the night package vs only black as my option for the limited. Which would you chose? I will probably very rarely do towing just some average truck stuff and wanted a comfortable yet good looking daily. Side note is the air ride worth it for occasionally offroad like for camping trips etc? (would mainly be daily street driving though)
If you can wait for a 2021, RAM just announced a night pkg for the limited so you can probably order one soon! Be sure to get it discounted for sure if you do as some dealers may try to hold on price! The air suspension is what I would get and it’s great for off-roading although I think it feels a little less unstable in its highest setting 👍🏾.
Looks slick. I agree it doesn’t need those mirrors. they make a 1500 with a spot mirror in the corner. That would be plenty I believe. They need to be paint matched as well. I like the bed step though. I wish they came standard
I saw one with the standard painted mirrors and instantly got turned off by the tow mirrors. I should have shown a comparison because they kind of take away from this design... same here it’s a no brainer especially with me getting older!
JB Reviews really? I figured the painted mirrors would blend well, but I hear you. Age isn’t really my issue, its a lifted truck on 37’s that I daily and use for work 😅. I’m 6’5 and getting shit out of the bed still isn’t easy
Mike Hunt my bad I wasn’t clear so I edited my comment. I prefer the standard painted mirrors too, and when I saw them I instantly got turned off by the tow mirrors. 😂 that truck sits extremely high even for a tall guy lol!!!
JB Reviews ah, I gotcha. Yeah it does but it’s no pavement princess 👍. I use every bit of that clearance off-roading and helping with storm clean up in my area
Im trying to figure out why you got the dirtiest truck off the lot to do a test on brother? They didn't have any clean ones, its not a good luck for the dealership new, or used.
I have a 2020 limited night edition plus or minus a few features. I am not crazy about the truck myself didnt take my time to look over the features and I bought it out of state and had it delivered. I'll either buy another one fully loaded in a different color or go back to Ford 150's. It will be on Carguru shortly
@@JB_WhoWork missing... surround view, the fold in mirrors and tow mirrors in general. No step to get up in the bed of the truck, and the sensors are to sensitive. It's slow to pick up speed to be a 5.7lL, I have a black 2008 R/T that will hang with the best of them. My 2015 Lariat was the top of the line chrome pkg fully loaded all bells and whistles. I violated my own rules and moved to fast, so I gotta suffer the consequences however, never again will I make the same mistake and go against my own judgment.
A 27 footer weighs around 7000#’s dry and that seems to be a pretty large one so as long as you get a 3.92 axle, 5.7 or 3.0TD, and consider a 1500+ payload, a Laramie down should be perfect. I’m not sure of tongue weight on boats because I have never owned one...
Thanks brother! Depending on what part of the video it was in, it probably was in the entry/exit ride height. It could be the black out making it look lower too. Do you have air too?
JB Reviews it’s an option “delete air ride suspension”. Mine is a 2020. I have the air ride but I could of got it without. I’m also in Canada. Maybe it’s different here
So your original comment was wrong. If “delete air ride suspension” is an option, that means the air ride suspension is included with the limited and you have to delete it if you don’t want it. Nice try though. BTW, “delete air ride suspension” is no longer an option. 0-for-2

That's what I'm gonna buy it for, and I can't wait for people to tell me that I'm wasting it's potential because I never tow or haul anything with it haha.

Yea it should go up for sure. I air up the tires slightly to help with mpg also. Congrats on the new truck!
@@JB_WhoWork I try and keep the tire pressure at 42 psi.

Yes it is! Nothing against GM but they need to redo the interior soon to keep up with RAM and now Ford. Congrats on the truck!

Thanks! Did you sell the 2500 already? I think I remember seeing you do a review on this truck.
JB Reviews yeah really liked my 2019 1500. Mega cab was nice but really liked 1500 for daily driver
This is a cool truck but a big horn was all I could afford. But not gonna lie I love my truck with 3.21 gears.🔥🔥
Epic review, I really appreciate the details!! That truck is a beast, it makes me want to go test drive one too!
Haha thanks bro! Doesn’t hurt to test one out 👍🏾
I own a 2017 Limited, which I traded a 2016 Laramie for. YES, the Limited is a gorgeous level of trim, but not so much that I would have paid an additional $7,000 for a better quality of leather, floor mats and dash trim if I had bought the truck new over a Laramie for the same options.
Yoooo, just put down a deposit on a 3500 SRW Mega Cab Night Edition. It's black on black on black 🔥🔥🔥
💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 Congrats Bro!
That would be my home office it’s so nice. Better than a 7 figure lawyers office in Manhattan lol.
Lol! Ain’t that the truth!
The best thing about this truck is that it passes the visor test 😁
Those tires are so weak looking but the truck is gorgeous.
They should have done some sort of telescoping mirrors so they're tuck in when you're not towing.
thanks to Covid-19, these trucks are going for 50k now! :):):)
Where?
What?? Where lol
Anywhere I'm a witness.
Sweet looking truck. It is all about the look as my brother would say. Has a ton of very cool options. I like that blacked out look for sure. Thanks for sharing JB.

@@JB_WhoWork That would be great. I would love to see that video.
Thanks for the review bro. GM and ford are still sleeping lol.
Curious about a $1495 “engine flash”. But that is a sweet looking truck with tons of tech for someone who wants a 1500!
I meant to look it up before I posted but I forgot...
@@JB_WhoWork Doesn't show well on the window sticker, but that is NO CHARGE. The $1494 was for the Double Roof.
I love the color, but at the same time I hate it. I love it because of the look, but I hate it because it's a pain to keep clean. Great review!
Yea it looks sooo good all blacked out but man if I start seeing swirls I feel sick to my stomach which is why I prefer white. Thanks for watching!
"I don't want that in my car"
Lol me neither man, saved around $3k by NOT getting Limited Level 1 on mine cause I would never use that adaptive cruise crap, I'll drive my car myself thanks very much 😆
Looks nice and love the sunroof, but agree dark makes it hot! Also, need a little more power to tow our future RV.. Thanks for sharing!
Future RV 👀
JB Reviews we looking for a fifth wheel almost like yours
Proceeding Onward in America POA vlog mid bunk is the way to go! Looking forward to see what you pick!
Nice review JB. Subscribed! I went with the Laramie and the Night Package!
Thanks! I love the Laramie Night, and I think the wheels are nice than the Limited’s 👍🏾
I would get the air suspension but I plan on lifting the truck,
That Destination charge is ALOT of money.
You can lift it with air suspension. Check our Rocky Rhode as he just lifted his truck on air
Damn that truck looks sinister. Murdered out.
That is a good looking truck, reliability scares me, though. I'm shopping as the lease on my 18 f-150 is up in 6 months.

RAM ranked highest out of all manufactures for JD Power check it out!
JB Reviews will do, they have really stepped up their pickup truck game.
If you are getting another truck, well you are in it. Ask the dealership to give you a hell of a deal, just maybe you can walk away around $54,000.
They are all expensive but people continue to buy them I mean they do it because they can
This is very very true... I saw a report of how many people are 90 days past due on their car payment and all I could do is 🤦🏾♂️....

Hey J.B. you do a great video on th a t ram, beautiful truck, I wish I could afford one if so that one be the one I would buy.
All black with chrome lug nuts!!!!!!

What's the best Ram to buy for towing a wakeboard boat?

@@JB_WhoWork Thank you very much
Love the truck. Have you heard anything more on the transmission from allison in the hd line ??
It’s all speculation for now because the video TFL put out was taken down.
@@JB_WhoWork wonder if fca told them to do that
Scott Fuselier nothing right now would surprise me lol
Good job JB, is my eyes or is that truck lower than my 1500, a lot lower?? Let me know.
Thanks brother! Depending on what part of the video it was in, it probably was in the entry/exit ride height. It could be the black out making it look lower too. Do you have air too?
@@JB_WhoWork yes, it must be the color, it just looks shorter. Have a good one.
How tall does become on the lowered way ?
can you drive at highway speeds on entry/exit mode? thanks
No
Gerald McCoy does reviews? I didn't know
Yea right we look nothing alike
@@JB_WhoWork you really don't, however at the start of the video.... Twins lol
Lol
1400 for engine calibration flash? I wouldnt pay that
I saw the base price but what was final retail on this?
Are you taking about after discounts?
great review JB..wish they would make the blacked out appearance in all colours...loving my 19 limited ..
Thanks bro!!! That Limited is nicer in the 1500’s for sure. Thanks for sharing! Btw is it lifted?
@@JB_WhoWork my truck no..have the air suspension!!
RAM-1500 KING OF TRUCKS just checked out your channel! Really nice truck
@@JB_WhoWork ya I noticed that JB..Thankd..love my Ram
Air ride suspension isn’t included with the limited. You can get it without
I just checked and it’s not an option and it does not look like you can delete off the build. Was 2019 different?
JB Reviews it’s an option “delete air ride suspension”. Mine is a 2020. I have the air ride but I could of got it without. I’m also in Canada. Maybe it’s different here

What do you need a truck for? For looks? Come on...
Most people today prefer to drive trucks over cars so it’s more important than ever!
makes you more manly, right?😂🤣
If they have a testosterone issue yes lol
