2024 Ram 3500 (Mega Cab): The Best Diesel Truck Ever!

[@idaho_7407]

It also has 3:73s for axle ratio which is how RAM Cummins should be equipped.

[@BigBadJohnDiesel]

At those prices, who's buying these trucks? Honestly!

101k Laramie. Insane. I have a 2022 high country duramax 2500. All options and msrp was 81k which I thought was high

[@lucasmancini7415]

2022 Laramie doesn’t come close to the limited ram. It’s way nicer and interior is first class. But I definitely see what your saying. It’s a big difference in price. Crazy expensive

But chevy is way behind. They just don’t have it.

[@Bamaboy813]

@@thomaschambers9431 This. My 2021 Laramie 1500 with 19 speaker Harmon Kardon sound system and all the other options is nicer than any configuration of Chevy truck. Now add on a 6.7 woooo weeeee!

[@CristianM4252]

Middle class ( working class ) yeah we can afford these. But is it worth living stressed out ? I make awesome money but these trucks are too expensive . I make 125k a year and I feel broke living single with 0 debt to ratio . These are way too expensive for today’s economy. They’re worth 65k at most for me but there’s so many individuals that are still buying them for more than what they’re worth and it’s keeping their prices up. I love Cummins and Dmax . Just try not to push away yalls costumers

[@Tehmv]

Feel ya man....in the same ballpark salary and cannot imagine paying these prices. I must be making chump change compared to the rest if 80-100k trucks is the norm. Ford raised their prices for the f150 as well...50k for a base model truck is bonkers.

[@wj2791]

Absolutely. Get 6.2 or 7.3 gas engine with 8 ft bed. I have 2023 Ram 3500 Limited LWB DRW. . I just found out that fuel filter ( one in the engine and one under chasis ) change costs $560 at the dealer. I paid 102k which was 7k below msrp. If you can't write it off for business, it is not worth it. It does drive good

[@codeyabc7927]

You can get all this as far as hp and torque out of the motor. I agree. No way they are worth it but they still sell

[@dirtwire1772]

Hey, at least they updated the price.

[@alexfry9114]

They should have made the back doors longer for the mega cab instead of making it look like it was just stretched out

[@davidjaskiewicz3461]

Not doing any heavy towing, get the standard output Cummins And increase your payload also.

[@christiansgamehouse]

Cool ram 3500!

[@harryniedecken5321]

Looks great. One of my big concerns with dual cabs in general has been having a lot of leg room, and not enough room behind the person's head.

[@medicchester]

Cummins is what semis use, contractors, construction, and engineers use these in their bulldozers and machines to build buildings and all other projects. You buy that engine, not depending on the Baker who puts it to use. Ran was lucky and it was their best move ever they make the most money from utility commercial deals and government contracts. We used power wagons in Iraq in 145-degree heat Fahrenheit..... The Rams were the only trucks to start correctly and even our tanks couldn't start up in that heat without computer failures. Ram computers didn't care! They just ran. So that was the most impressive thing ever. 😮

[@hamburgerhamburgerv2]

Well, any car made before the early 1980s is gonna be screwed if an EMP hits, so….

[@bluesfool1]

The fact that they only offer regular cab or 4 door is a deal killer. Hopefully they will update the heavy duty trucks soon. They are way behind in this field

[@texmex2338]

Love the hood look looks aggressive nice!! 💪🏼

[@boohookid]

One thing I can't wrap my head around is that it's a 2024 with a 6 speed. I can get a 24 king ranch f450, 10 speed, with more horsepower for the same price.

[@christiandulaney1638]

I didnt originally like the mega cab, but it has grown on me enough that I know have it on a super short list of next truck to buy. It would be a gasser though.

[@wj2791]

Cost to maintain is too high with Diesel truck. Fuel filter alone cost $560 at the dealers. You can buy the gasser and get your gas at Costco for $1 cheaper than diesel and no def and no fuel filter management.

[@christiandulaney1638]

I went with a 2021 RAm 1500 Limited. No regrets. Down the road, Id still like a diesel rig as a weekend fun toy to emissions delete, tune, etc@@wj2791

@@Brian_Eugene_Lee They won't cut it, Cummins has been Ram's most successful supplier for over 50 years now, and they are still going pretty damn strong. They wouldn't have a reason to close up their partnership with Cummins, unless they will for whatever reason discontinue the 6.7L, which everybody hopes they don't though! I am still waiting for a more powerful engines though, I want to see them kick Ford down again and take the 1st place in terms of Power output and towing capacity such as payload, and obviously also raise the GVWR!

There are a lot of them sitting on dealers lots because of the price. A local dealership has 10 percent off msrp. And there still not selling.

[@mph3500]

Honestly, the only thing lacking in this truck is the transmission. A six speed is almost archaic at this point.

[@CodyTheBmxMan]

Is there a chirping noise when you put it in 2nd or 3rd gear because it’s a Mega Cab? Is there any problems or recalls for the 2024 HD Trucks? Can you park it in your garage? Does it drive better than a 2022 Ram HD Trucks? Is the cab bigger? Is the interior redesigned or does it still have the same interior from 2022? Do you hear any chirping noises when you put it it in 2nd or 3rd gear or did they get rid of it?

[@wj2791]

I have 2023 2500 Limited LWB DRW and it will not park in normal garage space unless it is the warehouse garage spacing.

Mike, I’m with you. But, somebody is buying these. Or they would not be asking that much & the dealers wouldn’t be ordering them to sell on their lots.

[@saltyexxer8253]

I've got a 2022 dually that I drive commercially. It's got not one but three recalls that are about a year old, two of which involve spontaneous fires. Can't get the recalls dealt with due to lack of parts. Technically this truck should be parked. But I can't afford an 800 dollar a month payment with no money coming in. Think twice before you buy anything from FCA.

[@46fd04]

Hopefully the rear axle is straight. Just found out this week my rear axle was installed incorrectly. It's a 2019 RAM 2500 with the Cummins. Rear air ride suspension. Has been pulling right from since purchasing it brand new. I finally took it in 2 weeks ago for an alignment. The alignment shop called me and said I better take it back to the Dealer for repairs. The solid rear axle will not align properly, because it was not installed on the frame straight.

[@georgethegshep7344]

Does not

[@bigostuff]

@georgethegshep7344 tell my pocket book that.

[@bigostuff]

@georgethegshep7344 What is the life expectancy of the transmission in a Ram 2500? about 100,000 miles However, trucks often go through a lot of wear and tear. This can lead to transmission problems affecting the life span. On average, the transmission in trucks such as the Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500 last for about 100,000 miles. However, with proper care and maintenance, you can extend the life span of your transmission.Sep 7, 2022

[@bigostuff]

@georgethegshep7344 I recently had my transmission go out. after talking to three transmission shops they pretty mentioned the 68rfe in the rams life expectancy is just about 100000. dealership kind-of tipped toed around that same number as well. So I am sure some trucks may never have a problem of pote talky if someone is not towing may not have problems. I would say I tow some but not what I feels would be excessive. bit with a 2500 6.7 cummings I feels one should not have to worry as long as you don't tow over 19000 pounds. I towed 7000 pounds and less than 13000 miles over 6 years. fluid changes were completed at the dealer. Nothing out of the ordinary was ever noticed during towing. Fluid is as red as can be. So not sure why or how the transmission started acting up. but I rant. I can't compare it to gm products as I never owned a HD GM products. But anyways. just stating my situation with my Ram.

[@bbrcummins1984]

HO Cummins and the aisin transmission problem solved. It's basically a Toyota transmission
