Long Live Ram | Owner Story | Eric's Ram 2500 | 405,806 Miles

[@Theultrazombiekiller]

I have 380k on my 12 valve, no ripped seats, no cracked dash, 4x4 works perfect, engine has never been touched except injectors, we pull live stock trailers with it everyday, and I mean everyday, but it has been "grandpawed" its entire life and runs like the day my dad got it in 1997

400k miles, that 12v is just getting broken in!

@@RamTrucks I bought my truck in 2019 in the first month I had to have back seat anchors put in as they were missing from the factory, the front seat cushion had to be replaced as it didn't want to stay on, the black door trim had to be replaced because they were coming off. The bed had to be taken off a realigned so the tailgate would work. the inner fenders have had to be replaced twice in the front, the door seals have been replaced because of a whistle that can't be figured out.

I love those stories because they silence all the doubters and naysayers. I have 4 Rams equipped with the cummins diesel and i enjoy every second driving them. To me, they are so cool!!

[@esamorada]

My old 2001 24v Cummins had 557k miles on it and it still ran like a dream

[@jasonnemjo5981]

I really enjoy the real life stories of Dodge Ram and RAM owners. Hope to see many more. There are a lot of us out there.

I live right next to Everett, WA. I had to wait 25 years but I finally got a Cummins last Febuary. Already have 20k miles on it and look for to at least another 480k to go. Before that I had a 1988 W150 and put 400k on the little 318. Ram really is a great product. Thanks for building such a wonderful truck.

[@RamTrucks]

Thanks for the love.

[@doublegrant6015]

My 2010 ram with the hemi with 197k miles still runs good, most of the miles are from pulling pontoon boats from Missouri to south oklahoma. Ram has the best boat pulling trucks out there!

[@squattedjunktrucks9934]

My grandpa has a 1997 Ram 2500 (Diesel) and she still works like a dream and never had any work done to it, every summer weekend we haul a boat behind it and it pulls it like nothing. And on top of that, the truck has been a work truck for construction since it was purchased. Ram trucks are the best sounding, most comfortable, and obviously toughest and strongest trucks out there today!

[@sakarbik7535]

All RAM friends, all over the world love these real stories. 653.081 km... Wow!

703,000 km, (436,823 miles for my freedom lovers) on my 2001 2500 Cummins, my dad used it as a welding rig up until 2018 ish which is when I started daily driving it, fires up everytime and has never let us down

My 01 Cummins has 370k miles on it, i got it with 240k and the time ive owned it it has done tree service and firewood. I mostly do lawn service now but it has always been the work truck and it will be the last truck i get rid of because it always gets the job done and has the best performance doing it.

How many miles do you have on it now? I just hit 400k in my 2001!

[@alexmatthews2332]

Own three RAM trucks and would never drive any other brand. And have two Jeeps. My Cummins has 283,000 miles and still runs like a champ. First MoPar was 73’ Dodge Dart Swinger slant six. Grew up at the Belvedere assembly plant and fell in love with Chrysler products very young. Just can’t get enough of them!
