What about the test where Ford had to really dig and put an F450 up against the 3500? Doesn't seem fair, but if that's what had to be done to compete...I fully understand...The "bottom of the barrell", always 3rd. place Ram puts out a truck with a medium duty diesel engine, a medium duty transmission, GVWR that is pretty doggone good, a GCWR that has left the competition in the dust, all new suspension and frame, all wrapped into a great looking truck with an awesome interior...Guess Ram truck owners should have figured when all this came about for these trucks that Rams "moment in the sun", would be short lived and highly maligned...
I've got over 17,500 trouble free miles on this truck, tows my 5er, loaded to 16,200# all through the mountains, pretty much, effortlessly. Truly impressed with it's power and handling...zero issues, no problems and is one great looking truck. It will run as fast as I can to tow all day....it's my daily driver and it's a very good truck, and to me, that's all that matters:)
Exactly right. I have a RAM 14 dually, 3.73 Longhorn. It is AWESOME. I pull a toy hauler, gross out at a little over 28k, and it handles it great. Amazing power climbing hills! Beautiful interior.
Not knocking other brands, but anyone who says RAM puts out an inferior truck, knows not what they are talking about.
Big three are all putting out pickups that are awesome towing machines. To try to compare, to see which ones is slightly ahead on some mythical hill, means nothing to me. They all pull so good, that that is waaaaay down on my priority list now.
