@johnschubert46654 жыл бұрын
I drive 2 Ram 3500's, a 2011 SRW and a 2017 DRW. They preform extremely well. I haul loads up to 22,000 lbs. in the ice and snow here in Montana. The difference between the 3500 and the 5500 is 1. The frame, the 3500 is made with 1/8" steel channel and the 4500 and 5500 use 1/4" steel. The channels are deeper too. You have to look at the specs. closely. 2. The Transmission. The 4500 and 5500 use the Isuzu transmission. This is a very beefy unit with 0 problems. The trans on the 3500 is a problem. 3. The engine is the same basic unit but the 4500 & 550 de-tune the engine for 1,000,000 miles reliability. Engines get blown in the 3500 but not in the 4500 & 5500. The 3500 defiantly pulls better but at Interstate lane speeds (68 or so) it's the same. 4. Wheels. Can't remember but I think the 5500 comes with 19.5" wheels. Much higher load rating and longer tire life. Down side is hard ride empty. I like my 3500 but if I were doing trucking/hot shot full time I'd opt for reliability and low maintenance Just my 2 cents worth John S..

I just bought a 2018 ram 3500 duly Laramie with the Aisin for hotshot runs. Holy crap, the power in this truck so off the charts. So far my heaviest load has been 25k but it pulls like I'm running dead head. RAM with the AISIN trans is the only way to go.
@chrism20425 жыл бұрын
So many people bash the Dodge/Ram trucks but many of them don't want to face the facts that these trucks are machines! I have a new 3500 dually Limited, heaviest I have towed so far is 9k lb cab tractor with backhoe on a 24' gooseneck which is nothing for these trucks. A dream to drive and tow with, even a very comfortable ride on long trips. Mine has the auto air ride on the rear which is a cool feature but takes considerable weight to activate. I had all Chevy until 1999 when I was towing a horse trailer and tractor, I wanted a diesel. At that time Chevy didn't have a new diesel on the market, they were in development stages of the Duramax. So I chose a cummins over the powerstroke and the Dodge done it thing. Traded it at 251k miles while running and towing like a champ, got a 2005 3500 and it done great until I traded this year running great at 207k miles. I still keep a GM Escalade, Denali or Tahoe in the garage trading every 2-3 years and even looked at the Chevy 3500 and Ford F350 prior to getting the new Ram. Approx 19 years of awesome service out of 2 Cummins engines with auto trans, all stock, don't make sense to change. I don't go crazy like a fanboy over the Dodge/Ram when they get bashed. Not a fanboy of a brand, just a fan of what works!

Great video, and glad you like the truck! And yes, this new generation of automatics has taken over the manuals. The main reason this truck felt so good compared to your 5500, is because of the extra power you get with the Asin. Cummins with the Asin are rated at 930 lb ft torque and trucks with the G56 are detuned to 660 lb ft torque. Also, the reason tow haul keeps you under 2000 RPM, is because the Cummins makes that 930 lb ft max torque at 1700 RPM.

i have two RAM 4x4 Reg. cab 3500's - an 06 Cummings 6 speed and a new 2015 that i special ordered with every option you could put on a Tradesman model. that truck is a Cummings with the AISAN trans. both trucks will tow anything you hook to them. i've probably only had around 15k total behind both of them. the 6sp. drives like a trailer truck. to "go fast" you have to keep shifting. on the AISAN, you can just gradually plant your foot and the truck drags whatever you've got attached up any hill or grade you want in quick order. i get around 20 mpg with the 06 empty on the highway at 75 mph and around 18-19 with the AISAN empty. the new truck gets 13-15 mpg around town. i've tested the new truck on a 7% grade at 75 mph with about 8k behind it. with the cruise set at 75 mph and the dash gauges set on the Turbo boost, the truck never dropped 1 mph!! all that the Cummings did was spool up the Turbo from about 4psi to around 18. i actually drive the new RAM every day as my regular vehicle. i actually prefer taking the new truck on long trips rather than my nissan xterra PRO4-X SUV. the RAM does not ride that bad empty and rolling up on a Prius at 75 mph is always entertaining. it usually only takes a tape on the bright lights and the "golf cart" guy will move over into the right lane. i love BOTH of my RAMS.

I don’t haul quite as heavy as you but I went from a 2003 Cummins with nv5600 to my 2018 ram 3500 Laramie. Most I crossed scales in the 03 was 28000. My 18 has crossed the scales at 32000 and I completely agree I can’t believe the difference between the two. My 03 wasn’t stock by any means either. Phat shaft charger fass fuel smarty programmer south bend dual disk just to name few things that was done to the 2003. My 2018 is bone stock and I think it would easily out pull my old 2003. I have bought several things to delete the 2018 like ez lynk from Hpp 5” flo-pro bd throttle booster cold air the typical things that are done. I can’t wait to hook my dump trailer or my buddies 25+5 hydraulic dove and load either just to see what it will do after the upgrade.

I have a 19 dually. I must say the airbags are awesome if you haul heavy.

I drive a 3500 duramax dually. The trailer weighs 8 and the backhoe I haul is 17,500. It pulls it with ease but then again, I live in South Texas where it is pretty flat.

Good to know it will run with the big dog. If you add the BD Throttle sensitivity booster, It will downshift much easier. When I installed it in mine, it felt like it was on a 60hp tune. Instantly changed the driving experience.

Tim Speegle gosh those are like 400 bucks but I like what you’re saying about it I’ll prolly get it sometime soon 🤞🏻

I actually purchased the edge amp'd sensitivity booster. I was wrong about the brand. They're listed for 260 ish over at Alligatorperformance.com. Hope that helps!

I had a 2000 Chevy S-10 with a goosneck ball in the bed. I balanced a Cat D5 dozer on the Gooseneck and hauled it 14 miles. Surprising what a Chevy 4.3 Vortec will do.

Tow haul mode and automatic exhaust brake, you will very rarely use your brakes. I got the 2019 same color same package is yours. Except I did get the air assist. Man I love it. It's like taking my old lariat half-ton to dinner. I enjoyed your video. If you don't mind me asking what did you pay for yours? after we spend that kind of money we sit around and wonder if we paid too much LOL. Have a great day thanks again

Run that engine brake every time you tow. It has saved my brake pads. Even on flat ground makes a huge difference.

Hi guys may I ask having them on all the time when pulling a loaded trailer of course. Does it affect anything on the truck? . Or does it damage something on the truck. Thanks in advance

So I’m not the only one who forgets to increase and decrease his trailer brake controller until he’s on down the road 😂 you were totally talking about Andrew Camarata, great explanation of him I thought, he’s cool but a little dorky ha ha Ha

V-belt and sons I run a forestry mower similar to your but our is made by rayco and we fiist got ours it had cleats all the way around the tracks but we can to realize it's best to have just 4 cleats and ever since we switched ours out it fills like it goes a whole lot better but everyone has there own opinion

V-BELT and SON Sam if I got a RAM 3500 Dually 4x4 I'd get the AISIN 6 Speed Automatic Transmission over the G56 Manual any day because the AISIN Automatic Transmission gives you the 930 LB FT of Torque vs 660 LB FT with the G56 Manual Transmission my 3500 would be the Limited with the White Exterior and Tan Interior

I remember, in the 1960s and 1970's, when you bought a new 18 WHEELER truck, you could pick the engine. You could get CAT, CUMMINS, DETROIT DIESEL (two cycle), international, Mack. The point I am making, I wish I could get Cummins, in FORD cab, CHEVY cab, DODGE cab. That would be GREAT.

SSBC makes a brake kit for that truck, it will stop on a dime and give you change back. (8 piston callipers front and rear), that is what i did to mine, and added sumo springs instead of airbags.

Love your truck! That is my dream truck. Only thing I would change is I would down grade to the SLT model and delete it. I love all the extras in the cab but can't justify the added cost.

+V-BELT and SON how could you get away with deleting that in California. they make you do smog every two years. I just completed seven recalls on my truck at the dealer and one of them was the scr system and DMV would not send me registration until I got the recall done. after that I had to put 600 miles on the truck before the parts would talk to the computer it took four trips to the smog station to pass smog and one trip to the dealer. is there a county in California that doesn't do smog tests. if so I need to buy some land there and get an address to register my older vehicles.
