2014-2017 Ram 3500 Cummins. Total of 870k miles. Owner Review

[@doddgarger6806]

The dpf systems last when you tow heavy enough to get them hot enough to properly regen and dont put super awesome racer boy tuner boxes on them

[@duckwacker8720]

If you throw the emission shit in the trash where it belongs. You'll never have an issue.

[@TowPiglet]

Would've been awesome if the red truck was first. Red white and blue 🇺🇸👍

[@edwardnelson3304]

Thanks Paul that was treat to see three trucks together with the goosenecks attached, nice insight. Blessings man.

[@Dredogg820]

I had a 03 with over 300,000 miles and i know today its still goin

[@F9023JFjcDfsdfw2e]

300k isnt that much as long as it was taken care of and kept stock. Those common rails sell like hotcakes with 600k on them all day. Maintainance is a bigger factor than miles with these dodges.

[@Dredogg820]

I have same truck but 2013 i want to buy a 40ft trailer goseneck i do have a cdl just wondering whats the max weight i can put with 40ft i know a dully would be better but cant afford that truck to start thank you.

[@Mamemimomu1722]

Nice video Paul... God bless..... To viewers.... I am hearing and reading all this comments on many of the videos.... I did hotshoting my self for 3 years and 4 months on the RAM. I'm doing something different right now... if anyone would ask me: if you go back to hotshotting what choice of the vehicle would you pick? the answer is only one: RAM !!! If they would ask me to think twice... I would think and at the end the answer would be: ANOTHER RAM 🐏 for a nice juicy shish kabob on the road.... I know everyone's talking from their own experience and I know another fact that Ford and Chevy is a great piece of equipment on all different levels but my choice is Ram with Cummins and Aisin transmission that never fails. If you don't know what to choose try them all you'll see the difference and then make your decision what to keep...

[@pddieselpower]

Good one brother. Thank you for your support

Whats your opinion for goose neck trailers via bed size? 6 1/2 vs 8ft. Whats your preferred and why? Downside to either?

Awesome man. Strait ffrom the horses mouth. I keep trying to find reviews of people that work these truck to the worst case scenario. All i can find is videos from dealerships. Any issues with any of the transmissions? Any tunes, deltes on these trucks? Ill explore ur videos further. thanks bud.Subscribed.

[@highball7347]

When ordering, do you bother with dual alternators or just standard option? Good idea for a future vid would be your build sheet/window sticker for your truck orders.

[@michaelchristopher9444]

Dual alternators aren't needed for most applications. Unless you're running a plow or lots of accessories. Just get the big single 220 amp alternator option when ordering.

[@ironaddict5450]

Do you ever have issues with acle rating a chicken coops

[@2009reezen]

It would be cool to get a duramax in the fleet for comparison. Since you have one ford it would be nice to see what the chevy would offer

He had a 2017 isuzumax. Cost to maintain was more costly with no exhaust brake. Cummins

[@2009reezen]

@@samuelhatch8470 a wrecked and rebuilt 2017 purchased with over 100k miles is not a comparison. I am a Cummins fan as well.. but as you have seen they are not doing well, hence the reason he sold the ones that didn’t blow up. I would like to see a new duramax comparison.

[@murdoc4794]

[@mylesgoodman521]

Do you often have transmission problems?

[@pddieselpower]

No. Unless miss used. We see 500k out of Aisin transmissions

[@victorhobson5078]

What do you do for the break in? You said you drive it the first 1000 miles. The book says 500 no trailer then 500 with trailer under 50mph. I just got an 18’ ram

How often do u guys change tranny fluid ?

[@jdirt1982]

Has all the emissions stuff lasted that last long ?????

[@wesleydodson2223]

Hell no

[@alanack67]

It does last because the truck is being used as desinged. When the trucks are used as mini vans you have issues.

[@ramtrucks721]

He deletes everything.. he's in a State that doesn't require it

[@RiggyRonnie]

Deleted before put to work

[@jimmieelkins]

Love your feedback, always look forward to watching them. Know this is touchy subject but can you tell us more about the emission equipment on your trucks? Does the emission cause any problems and what is the longevity of them? Have a 2012 3500 with no problems yet.

[@duckwacker8720]

There's zero reason to talk about something that should be removed as soon as it leaves the dealer.

[@davidb1089]

Yes it does lower engine lifespan but they still will last nearly as long.

Is there a reason why non of your trucks are DRW?

[@repairvehicle]

Hi Paul, nice video. But you have to give your viewers more details. Blow by if any when engine is running. View of engine compartment with details what has been replaced or repaired. Thanks for understanding.

[@doddgarger6806]

A healthy Cummins won't have any appreciable blowby even at 400k

[@natekoeppen6681]

But my buddies uncle’s friend’s grandpa’s cousin has a duramax with 7 million miles and it’s way better than a ram! 😂 keep up the good work Paul, love the videos!

[@doddgarger6806]

I have had both, even had a 300k lb7 👀 The Cummins truck will be slightly more reliable but don't knock a well maintained dmax if were talking adult drivers in both the dmax can easily do the same 400k without a major repair My 15 ram held hills better than my 15 dmax when heavy The dmax is a sturdier trans and farrrrrrr better brakes The ifs makes the dmax drive sooooo much easier than the solid axle 4x4 ram too when racking up seat time you really notice the steering feel difference My 15 ram always pulled since new, they wouldn't fix it, couldn't actually without replacing the axle, made me sick buying a brand new vehicle that they refused to fix a driveability issue Except that pesky cp4, needs additive to stay alive or b5 minimum.. sucks too

The ‘13+ Ram 2500/3500 can exhibit vibration/oscolation usually at 70-75 mph. All stock or bigger tires/ suspension configuration don’t matter.

Yep, I’ve read people re-balance and change out deiveshafts with no effect. Road Forcing tires, change out shocks, switch to different combo of stock to aftermarket or bigger tires and wheel setup. No change. Some say it’s the stiff frame, but not all have the issues. I learned to live with it for now.
