Nice Truck

This truck has all the newest technology. We haven't towed anything yet but sure it will handle everything just fine. I can't get my husband out of it.

B bailey

Best ride in a 3/4 ton 4x4 heavy duty truck. Excellent power and torque for a gas engine (6.4 liter).

Ram 2500

Great truck for the price! Has everything needed for a first time truck owner. Diesel is the way to go. The tradesman trim with off road package is what sold me.

Most fuel inefficient vehicle ever owned

Had a 1500, loved it. Purchased larger camper, needed more suspension. Purchased new 2017 2500 with 6.4. can not get 10 mpg. Took to dealership, looked at me and said it was a fuel pig. Wished I'd known that before spending money.

RAM 2500 6.7 Cummins

Great truck at a great price and best of all it has a Cummins. A very good truck at a much better price than the competitions heavy duty trucks.

Towing Power 6.4L Gas

Great truck, rides smooth for a 3/4 ton. Opted for the 6.4L gas engine which have me a 16,000 pound tow capacity which is great for pulling my camper. Crew cab is a little cramped with a car seat rear facing. The floor isn't flat when you good up the seats. Upgraded from F-150 super crew I think the ford may have had a little more room but it did not have the capability or engine reliability as I had the ecoboost engine which is good until about 100k miles.

2017 RAM 2500 CC 6.4L BH

Been looking around Maryland and Virginia for the right truck and decided on a RAM 2500 CC 6.4L BH. Great options for long hauls and power when I need it.

Excellent value

I looked at Ram, Chevy, Ford, Nissan, and Toyota. I was looking for a full size truck. The Ram has the most powerful gasoline engine available. Plus they had more options for the money I was spending. I wanted to be around $48,000. I got a crew cab Laramie 2500 with some additional options for $46,900. I haven't put 200 miles on the truck yet. So far I love it. Also I sat down to do paperwork and was informed that Chrysler was offering a lifetime bumper to bumper warranty with unlimited miles for $3300. If you are looking for something long-term? I don't see how you could go wrong. Easy purchase for me.
