- In this video I talk about my dream truck. I wanted a manual cummins for over 15 years and when FCA confirmed that 2018 was the last year they were making them I set on a mission to find the one, here it is! Please like the video and Subscribe to my channel. Let me know if you want to see more videos on this truck!
I did the exact same thing you did Michael. Ended up finding one almost exactly how I'd have built it in Tennessee, flew there and picked it up, new, and brought it home. 4 years later I'm, so happy I did.
Thx for documentation of your experience.😃 I bought a 2018 RAM 3500 SRW 4x4 Tradesman G56 in August 2018. First new truck I ever bought!😃
Thanks, enjoy your truck too!
I had a 2018 as well. You are so right about the mirrors. The first one I test drove had the tow mirrors and when they were down the image represented in the mirror was awful when it came to judging space and distance. I wound up buying a Big Horn that had the Sport package and the sport mirrors. Also, prematurely wearing out those stock Firestone Transforce tires is actually a blessing! Those things were horrible for traction. My truck was so much better after I replaced them with some Cooper AT3's.
The stock firestones are good for hwy and that’s about it!
Congrats brother- beautiful truck. Fluid film (or similar) is your friend if you plan to keep 'er for the long haul.
MANNNN what a rare truck. !!! I hope you keep her around for a long time :)
I was looking at a 08 Power Wagon, that was sold before I had a chance to do the paperwork on it (my trade in was my down payment) so they had a 12 Ram 2500 ST 4x4 with a 6.7 Cummins and G56 that I was happy to take!
Bought my 2014 laramie fully loaded cclb sunroof, cooled seats, rear air bags blacked out and deleted last year, never letting her go unless I find a newer g56 fully loaded white megacab
Good stuff!
Looking to buy a 2014 3500 DUALLY with 67k miles ! How has yours Ben treating ya?
Great video, not many out there of that type of truck north of the border. I got a 2015 with a g56 and love it but, the other comments are correct...it's a matter of time before that egr craps out on you!! Mine froze solid in -45 although it was plugged in, best thing that happened to me! Just ordered the same leveling kit, good choice and good video keep it up. 👌🏾
Right on
do you have a link for the kit?
It’s so quiet because it has all that garbage in the exhaust the sootcooker and catalytic converter I have had 2 4th gens both unloaded got 20+mpg without all that extra garbage and 0 smoke out the pipe with a really clean tune also that egr is gonna cost you that motor at 150k ish miles
My advice, keep it. Don’t modify the engine, don’t put a lift in it, it looks great the way it is. Drive it for a million km’s .
Nice unit 👍 hate to be bad news but you’re lucky you’ve not had emissions trouble already but it will be soon I promise. That’s why I bought a g56 06 3500. 130,000. 2 injectors that’s it. Good luck. Stay safe
I have all of the emissions on my 5500 without issue. They're meant to work hard.
I have 18 crew cab long bed g56 4x4. Mines sitting under 15,000 miles. Mine i baby .
Video officially does not suck. Would like to know what your mileage is like with stock emmissions controls.
Thanks Marc.
Stock suspension and stock tires 285/60r20 I could get 11.2 l/100km at 120km/h on the 401. That’s a 33.5 inch tall tire
With a 295/65r20 which is 35.1 inches tall it went up to about 13l/100km for that same trip. Then with the 2.25 inch level I feel like it may have gotten worse but not by much.
Stock tires and no level was pretty great for mileage.
Nice truck. I kick myself all the time for not buying one in 2018. Hard to find now
Thanks! I really enjoy it
Would you sell it?
For sale?
Yankees be silly af but he seem cool
I have the G56 on a 2017. Exhaust brake does nothing for the turbo actuator. My failed at 72,000. The clutch went at 86,000. I actually use my truck. It’s not a family car. You clearly don’t use the truck what it’s built for.
Ram should be kicked in the balls for stopping production of the manual. Such a stupid idea.
