      Huge infotainment screens with voice recognition.

      Long gone are the days when the "premium" radio was an upgrade from the slide indicator to a simple LCD numeric display for the frequency that was changed by the same big dial, and tiny sliders or dials for individual bass and treble adjustment.

Love it, it's fully loaded and is ivory triple pearl, I got it used with 4,446 miles on it for $48,275 The dude that originally bought the truck couldn't afford the $1,100 payment per month and his wife was pissed at him for getting it because she knew they couldn't afford it, so theyhad to take it back.

      I'd argue the Ram 1500 Limited is underpriced. The interior matches the quality and beauty of a Range Rover/X7 interior, while also providing all the luxury and tech features, an extremely comfortable ride, and the towing/hauling abilities of a truck. To spec a Range Rover to have the same features as a loaded 1500 Limited, you'd have to spend $110,000. A $70k truck is expensive for sure, but you definitely get what you pay for (and more) in the Ram.

    Coming from a 1996 Chevy CK 1500 truck series owner, the Ram 1500 Limited Trim level truck is the best looking truck in terms of the interior (12" Infotainment System). The Sierra Denali has a unique look because of the amount of chrome implemented on the exterior. Needless to say, the interior looks monotonous because it lacks a creative and quality look. I still give credit to GM for giving their customers at least more legroom inside the cab. Two years from now, I will obtain one of these luxuries trucks after graduating from college. Time will tell if i choose either the Denali (Diehard GM Truck Owner) or Ram 1500 Limited (Stepping outside the box for the looks).

    I bough the 2019 Laramie Longhorn long bed a year ago, the truck sticker price was 58K, dealer pulled off 4k on the jump, and gave me 24k +, for my 14 Laramie. This truck after 12k driving is by far the best I ever owned or driven, and everyone that has rode in it front to back cannot believe the ride it gives, not to mention the amenities. So the price quoted in this vid , is really not the real world deal to be had on the Ram.

It’s an slt plus so right under a Denali. The fords are very nice with lots of luxury. But when I got into the gmc I was blown away at the fit and finish. Much better materials. No creaks and rattles. Everything in the Ford was plastic. Door panels, dash, center counsel, and I was looking at a lariat. I feel gm is lacking some of the high end flashy gadgets.

Power was a wash for me, 6.2 only available on higher models for the most part, the Hemi is no slouch.

For the amount of time test driving both vehicles, it would be good to know what type of fuel mileage you got.

    Fit and material inside is unmatched. Smart cruise is fantastic. One of my favorite things. Its really quiet inside. The power running boards. Automatic high beams/rain sense wipers (which you can adjust the sensitivity). It has transmission braking when in tow/haul mode. I could keep going for days. Its just a fantastic truck. Quality and features are unmatched in a pickup truck.

      @johnscott1372 5 років тому

      Ram has it's own split tailgate now that you can still use if you have a hitch installed unlike the GMC. It's a 60/40 door style as well as a drop down. GMC did do the bed well but the Ram wins everywhere else. I don't care about a little less power, the Ram has enough for a 1500 truck. The GMC needs to go faster so you can get out of that hideous interior as quickly as possible :)

    Maybe the reason for GMC not spending more money on interior "little details," is because they put that money on quality parts that are vital to the truck running reliably. We need to stop giving RAM trucks a pass just because they look so good on the inside. But, I'm sure your mechanic appreciates the view all the times he's working on the RAM.

    Both are really nice trucks, even if I believe the idea of "luxury trucks" is stupid, but I HATE that giant, chrome, big-rig style grill on the GMC. GMC has the power advantage but I've seen nicer interiors on $30k cars honestly. The idea of spending $67k on either of these is ridiculous. Both are too nice to really work with, and if you want it for comfort and interior take that money and buy a luxury sedan or even an SUV.

    I appreciate your thorough review. I want to share that I spent a long time looking at luxury trucks; Denali, High Country, King Ranch, and Ram Limited, and I chose the Denali. I concede that it is laking inside, but as you said with the exterior-less can be more-too much technology in the Ram makes it uncomfortable for me. Also, even though this is a review for "luxury truck winner" these are still trucks; and the Ram just cannot compete with Denali in regards to the power and ride. It boils down to preference, and I have happily chosen a fully loaded Denali.
    Thank you so much for your reviews they have been a wonderful resource!!
