My brother had a longhorn. It’s like a limousine. It was such a nice ride. Also, I feel the ram has the best looks of all the trucks save for the sporty Chevy trucks. I do have to say as an overarching statement, the pricing for trucks IS ABSURD!!! They’re not worth the sticker they’re asking.

[@overduetax]

I put 30,000 miles on a 2019 Longhorn with every option. I just traded it this month. After 2.5 years there was some leaking of the pano sunroof, the right mirror would click and glitch when autofolding, the battery fully drained once which killed it and when that happened I got lane sense, parking sensors and a few other sensors that were unable to be switched on even with a new battery installed (the dealer reset the computer(s) for me which resolved). 99% of the time the truck was wonderful but with a few years and seasons behind it, I can say it is a phenomenal truck but i would NEVER own one out of warranty. The complexity is going to be the death of this thing.

[@raphaelsanchez4797]

You are correct that the Ram is better, Thomas, as far as ride. I have a 2021 Ram Limited. If you don’t care for all that chrome, as I don’t either, you can get a black out package for $3,000 bucks, or do what I did, and replace much of the chrome with eBay black lettering, black mirror caps, and order the color-matching bumpers. I also painted the chrome wheels with dupli-color matte black spray paint. You’ll enjoy the quiet and comfortable ride, and you guys deserve it. The Tundra’s interior is about 300 years old. The F-150 looks great too, but ride is not as nice and my experience is that the F-150 in Platinum trim is more expensive than a comparably-equipped Ram in Limited trim. The Silverado and Sierra are ok, but the interiors are also aged. The Sierra, Silverado, and F-150 have unique and arguably better tailgates, whereas the Ram has a split tailgate option, but the Ram is the only one to offer the Ram boxes, where I keep road-side tools and gear. Also, the Ram has storage bins behind the front seats on the floor. Get there in comfort, and then race. Then come back home in comfort. Get the Ram.

[@Allwayzworkin]

As a previous ram bighorn owner I love this thing. It’s seriously hyper usable and surprisingly quick, and (swear to god) if the power goes out in a storm you can literally get a multi outlet extension cord plug it up and it will run your T.V., game console, refrigerator, and floor mounted A/C unit. For days. I’m not kidding. I did it 😂

[@air-headedaviator1805]

The Longhorn is a luxury truck trim. Its all about being a comfortable “utility?” Vehicle. Honestly I was sold on the air suspension.

I had the same view about trucks until I bought one. In June I bought my first truck, a White RAM 1500 Limited with the night appearance package and I can wholeheartedly say I will never go back to a car again. The air suspension is great even with the 22's, the utility is awesome, plenty of space for a family of 4 and luggage, and the truck gets more looks than my previous CL63 AMG. All around win for RAM, guess that's why it's Truck of the Year.

Hey Guys, One small side bar on the chrome. I’ve found that the chrome is tougher against getting scratched etc than body colour on the bumpers. I’ve owned trucks with both body colour paint and chrome... I was forever touching up the paint on the body colour bumper... Good luck on your choice... a lot of capable trucks out there.

[@joelstalcup2464]

I’ve owned a Ram, F150, and now a Tacoma. They’re all great trucks overall but the organic driving experience of my manual Tacoma TRD Pro has been the most satisfying. I also trust Toyota over every other automaker in terms of reliability.

[@yadvindergakhal4294]

If you want a Ram, but don't like the chrome, consider looking at the Ram 1500 Sport, Canada exclusive!

[@Kanakid]

He says “I get it”. The more you drive the Ram the less you want to drive anything else. Especially with the air ride. The Etorque makes shifting extremely smooth and improves fuel economy about 1-2 mpg. It is an extremely impressive vehicle.

[@hedwards4599]

I never in my life liked trucks or would EVER consider owning one in my life until I sat inside of this truck at the Orlando Auto show and I said the same thing: "I get it". I could own one of these without needing to tow something.

[@MostlyElectrolytes]

Went though the exact same thing. Hit Ford, hit Toyota, left with a Ram Limited. It's not even close, but I wasn't buying during COVID and not only was it the superior vehicle, but I got an amazing deal on it. The problem is that it was so damn nice that I caught myself out there detailing the bed after hauling a box.....plus they gave me more than I paid for it on a trade-in. It was too nice to be a truck, it was too big to be a real daily driver. So I traded it in on an 2022 MDX for the wife and I get the Stinger GT. I do miss it sometimes....except anytime I'm trying to park.

[@userundefined01]

OMG! Ya'lls describing the in's and out's of this truck had me lol'ing and rolling the whole time.

[@fizoust2]

Daily’d a 19’ Longhorn for 2 years now. I’ll give you the rundown. The Etorque is a gimmick. The only thing it does is provide seamless auto on/off and a super annoying initial 1/2 turn of the tires in electric mode. When pulling out into traffic, if you need to hammer down, by the time the engine kicks on you already have the skinny pedal planted bc you need to “go”, you peel out, every time. Hit the button to turn that off. You are right about how well it drives though. Get the body colored bumpers, minimizes the chrome. Do not get the ram boxes, they notoriously come out of alignment and decrease payload. The seats are a little stiff to me, I’ve owned multiple high end vehicles though, Audi Q7, Infinity QX80 etc. I got the towing spec, 3.92 gears. Its peppy, but get horrible mpg. I initially got 12. Then I put the Mopar 2” lift with 35s, total average is 13 mpg in 2 years. It. Is. THIRSTY. It tows really well, my 4K lb trailer and RZR combo is nothing to it. It tows like a beast. If it got better mpg I’d never consider selling it. Everyone says the 5.7L just needs to “break in” for better mpg, that is BS. Had a Gen2 Raptor previously, Ford had better seats, better mpg, and well, the Raptor rode like an Escalade. All in all the Ram is a great truck. Side note, TFL Truck did a towing comparison, the Ram got better mpg while towing then the new Ford Powerboost. Not surprised. Any electric assist will lack under load. Oh and my kids love the rear cooled seats. Not many vehicles even offer that under $100K USD.

[@witkr904]

I have a 13 Longhorn, and fully agree. Towing my Talon is does not even see a hill, but finds every gas station dropping from 20-22 to 10-12 with only 4K weight of a trailer. 160k so far… normal stuff plus a heater core, can’t complain.

[@artoo45]

From the guy who owned GMC Sierra and currently Ram. Trust me, Rams interior is 10x better than what GMC offers. No more creeking sound and cheap plastics on the center storage area.

[@jorgemagana9818]

Great video boys. A few comments tho: The Powerboost has a lower towing capacity and lower payload than most trucks out there due to the extra weight. If you are buying for towing, it for sure isn't the answer. The 3.5L Ecoboost would do a lot better. You may also want to avoid the Ram airbags here in Canada. LOTS of horror stories in winter where the moisture inside the airlines freezes up and the suspension fails. Ram Sport 1500 is what you guys need!

[@upshifter5316]

Corrections, for interested parties: 1) On the Ford F-150, Powerboost models have an increased GVWR (7300lbs vs 7050 on 4x4 crew cabs) to compensate for the added weight of the hybrid system and batteries. So while payload is still nothing to write home about, it is indeed a) inline with non-Powerboost trucks, and b) higher than any Ram’s payload, trim for trim. 2) The sentiments surrounding Ram’s poor air suspension reliability in cold climates like Canada relate to the4th gen (through 2018) trucks. Ram redesigned the system for the 5th gens, and to everyone’s surprise complaints from the snow-belt about issues are all but non-existent.

[@jorgemagana9818]

@@upshifter5316 Thanks for the comment. 1) I meant towing capacity as opposed to GVWR. Towing capacity and payload are down indeed. 2) The system was re-designed indeed but still suffers the same problems. Most dealers and sales persons here will advice to getting the airbags. Talking with mechanics at the dealer also confirms this.

[@TumblehomeBoatshop]

It's always worth a look at the payload weight when planning to tow with these crew cab luxurious trucks, as well as the towing capacity and GCWR. In the US anyway, this is on a stamp on the doorframe. The weight of the crew cab and the heavier engine counts against the GVWR, reducing your payload. This truck reviewed here might only have about 1500 pounds of payload, or less--I don't know this, I'm guessing; but on the Ram website the V6 has a 1700 pound capacity and I think this truck has the same GVWR. If you're towing a 4000 pound car on a 1500 pound trailer, then your tongue weight will between 550 and 825 pounds. Put four grown men in the truck with their gear, that's another 8-900 pounds, or more, and you'll be right at or over the truck's limit--at least legally. This is an area where Ford has an advantage with the lighter aluminum body, in my opinion.

[@kietlam3080]

As a Ram owner, I agree with you here, my truck (1500) has a payload of only 1400 lbs, which is kind of sad, and I load it up to the max every time I go to the beach with my family, but the truck doesn't seem to squat at all. The truck only squats noticeably on me when I put 2000lbs in the bed, which I know is more than the limit, but it still handles fine, and stops fine. I would assume the same for the other truck brands and the gcwr is just a suggestion if you plead the fifth.

@@kietlam3080 You might be able to plead the fifth but not if you're doing commercial work, which is my situation. I know what you mean, though, the trucks seem to have plenty of reserve capability, over the ratings.

the air suspension has a higher payload then the standard suspension, i have a 2014 ram 1500, that saids about 1600 payload, while the air suspension is suppose to be closer to 2000, options on the truck can reduce the payload as well, not just the engine

[@TumblehomeBoatshop]

@@xavierlopez6545 Right, but you can't change the GVWR. You can put duallies on as well, which will also improve capacity from an engineering standpoint but not a regulatory standpoint. Anything you put on the truck that adds weight to the empty truck counts against it's GVWR.

[@xavierlopez6545]

I would seriously recommend checking any truck stickers before buying, some trucks from other companies, have huge differences in payload in the same class, without it being very straight forward about it, as far as I understand, ram 1500 has two different suspensions set up, spring coils, or air suspension, not including off road specific packages, while I've scene ford have a difference of 1000 pounds to 2000 pounds on their F150, without any off road packages included, and both with leaf spring rear ends

I have a 2013 laramie longhorn..i love it. Does the 2021 still have the cooler "gun case" under floor mars in the back??

[@jordanjoestar8839]

When you realize the Extra TH is just the same quality as the original TH Also, Thomas, those 90's off-Green shoes are pretty sick. They also do NOT match that same shade of 90's Purple slapped on a flannel hahaha

[@Spoolingturbski]

Ram nailed it with this truck. The luxury in unprecedented, and the quality is top grade. If you’re buying a new truck you’d be foolish to not buy any version of the Ram.

[@simontallboy209]

I own a 2015 Ram 1500. Before that I had a 2012 F150. I tow a 7500lb travel trailer and I haul firewood and other stuff pretty regularly. My Ram has been great Fuel mileage could be better, but it's a truck. My brother has a 2020 F150 with the 2.7 Ecoboast. Empty his truck gets better mileage than mine, but towing and lpad r the Hemi in my Ram gets better mileage. I'd suggest you try a conventional coil spring Sport before pulling the trigger on the he air suspension. I drive truck for a living and air suspension can be problematic. If you stick to your plan of leading go with the air suspension. Love both channels, and speaking as a 50 year old whit guy, "Nice truck"

[@nyakio5511]

I worked at a dodge dealership and i was a porter so I drove everything, and it took this gen Ram to make me interested in trucks and i plan on getting a Ram

[@tjc20]

I have this truck, but with the color-keyed front bumper which cuts down on at least some of the obnoxious chrome. I didn't opt for air suspension because I know I'd want to lift it (and did). Still rides like a dream and the wife approves.

[@bestpilot98]

Fellas, get your Ram Longhorn with body colored bumpers, like I did. The chrome grill stays, but the painted bumpers elevate the overall look of the truck. Also, have the exterior door and tailgate badging removed. The 2 hood badges and tailgate's ram logo are integrated into the body, so they can't go away.

[@iamkaelan_98]

If you like this and don't like the chrome and you would like even more range, get a 1500 limited night edition with the 3.0 v6 turbo diesel. Amazing engines. Really smooth and quiet!

[@ArmandShahinian]

Another great review, guys you energy is awesome

[@wiicodman]

My dad has a 2019 bighorn with the sport package. I like that it doesn't have a lot of chrome and has a large screen but not the tablet sized one.

"I don't have a lawn but they're not allowed on it, that's for sure" 😂😂

[@neilhoward3750]

I have a 2020 1500 sport loaded and no chrome I do love the truck it's a great truck.

[@nilespeterclemens8328]

Trucks are a necessity in this giant state of Texas. There is never a time when I wish I didn’t have a truck.

[@boxerdog5979]

Ram has done a great job with their trucks.

[@boxerdog5979]

Just got to the part they said it cost 90k. Wow. I bought my 2017 Chevy 3500HD High country long bed 4x4 with a Diesel Loaded to haul our horse trailer new for under 70k. The Ram is really nice but not 90k nice.

[@johnkenley4687]

That kind of stitching has a name by the way, it's called filigree! The name applies to all the artsy engravings in the gauge cluster as well. Its a cool western art style.

[@Iang343]

I am glad you. Said something about the chrome

[@crsantin]

I have a 2020 Big Horn North Edition with the off road package. Wonderful truck. I’m very happy with it.

[@rightwingsafetysquad9872]

If you’re buying a truck to tow a vehicle, you want a SuperDuty or equivalent. Whatever the tow rating for a truck is, lower it by 2% per 1,000 feet above sea level and another 25% off for up hills. I’m partial to Ford, but if Thomas thought the F-150 was too harsh, he’s gonna want to stick to RAM, the Power Wagon looks sick anyway. Maybe I’m a bad judge though, because I thought the F-150 was too soft (and thought the RAM was much stiffer).

[@hotsky83]

"I want people to get off my lawn" haha nice

[@nathanking8396]

If you do drive the Sierra 1500, go Denali. I absolutely love mine. The ride is second to none with the MagneRide. It’s tow rating isn’t as high but it does fine and your trailer isn’t gonna max it out anyways. I think for trucks, I’ll never go away from the Denali. The only thing I think I might have done differently is gotten the diesel instead of the 6.2l. I love the power but I think the diesel would have been a better option. Good luck.

[@AR_P71]

Is this truck going to be a dual daily driver & race car trailer hauler? Otherwise, wouldn't it make sense to save money on a cheaper work truck spec, if it's only purpose is to tow?

[@Seventysieben]

Geography and my preferences prevent me from ever considering a truck, but the ingenuity that goes into developing the features of these things is impressive. It does make you wonder whether so many American cars are that average because the big 3 spend all their cash on developing nifty new features for Rams, Broncos and Escalades. Also, this might be the first time I’ve considered a car’s interior hilarious.

[@Vorael]

"you can't guarantee shit, m8" lmao

[@Kimandy6862]

I just subscribed! I can’t believe it took me this long.

[@rsalas51]

You can get it without the chrome. Mine only has a crime grill and body color bumpers, but you can get rid of all the chrome by opting for the “Night Edition” which blacks out the grill, mirrors, head/tail lights, badges, exhaust tips, and wheels.

[@charlesschwab7651]

I love the nifty optional features that the Honda Ridgeline did years and years ago lol.

[@krane15]

@8:46 Dear James, trucks stop being pure utility a long time ago. This one is a luxury vehicle inside a utility vehicle.
