NEW 2019 Ram 1500 review--WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW.

[@SkodzGaming]

ram 2019 by far the best looking exterior and INTERIOR of all 2019 trucks.

[@vinibisetto]

I agree!

[@MyMommyDays]

He didn't mention the dual panoramic sunroof! Yes a truck with a GIANT sunroof :) I have this truck in white with the 12inch screen! Everything about this vehicle is AMAZING!!!! You can't beat all the luxury and safety features.

[@markvikse9844]

Great review and I can echo what he says, I own a 2019 Ram1500 Limited and couldn't be happier with the E-Torque system and all the tech for the money. Expensive? Yes, but you get way more for your $$ than with GM, Ford, Toyota or Nissan. Well done RAM!

[@jamesweinzierl7399]

I’ve had 3 rams and they keep getting better . The rotary shifter is one of the best features others don’t have .

[@davidsutliffe8443]

i traded my 21 chevy for this 19 ram. no regrets, this 19 ram is miles ahead of the 21 chevy.

[@hoderharris]

Ok this is the best Ram review bar none. Nicely done.

[@boomafoo9]

Best review of this truck yet! I would love to see the 2019 Ram Sport Edition all blacked out. Saw a few shots from the Detroit Auto Show and it looked amazing.

[@gregoryvierra6114]

Beautiful truck inside and out. Appears to be solidly built as well.

[@johnmattiazzo3900]

Love the 12 inch tablet on your dash you can play with but don't touch your cell phone

[@cremazie]

Well, you have definitely answered my question from last week!

[@netsurfers9357]

This is very near my 2019 Laramie 4x4... same color and I really love it! I did find out some issues that people should be aware of... because of the heads being aluminum, I am seriously thinking of installing Kook's stainless steel headers... come to find out that so many people are having problems with broken head bolts because of the expansion of metals from the iron manifold being different from the aluminum heads. I think stainless steel would be a good idea to help reduce these problems. I also may install a more heavy duty starter... as I also found out that the original starter's were small on many RAM 1500 trucks. I purchased mine with Mud/Snow traction tires that were nice and wide and new rims to go.

[@shiftintohigh5564]

Fantastic review! Superb blending of running footage.

[@dlg5485]

Wow, I've never been too impressed with any FCA product, but that has changed with this new Ram. I've owned several trucks over the years and not one of them approached this level of refinement and innovation. This may be the most innovative trucks ever made and it looks absolutely fantastic. Also, with improved towing and payload capacities, FCA is clearly going after the top sales slot with this one and they might just get it. Now they just need a new transmission, one that competes with the new 10-speed from GM/Ford. Well done!

[@teejg49]

LOL if a ten speed is better, then I'm going to wait for a 12 speed. Shoot, why not a 20 speed. Ford's 10 speed serves one purpose, erroneous bragging rights. An 8 speed with the same ratio spread as a 10 speed makes more sense in many ways, especially from a longevity point of view, no need to constantly change and/or skip gears, plus larger gears in the same housing, or lighter weight, just to name a few. Engines with roughly a 3000 RPM operating range do not need 10 speeds. I drove an 18 wheeler for many years. The operating range of my Cat was about 800 RPM (1300 - 2100 rpm) that needed 13 speeds. What is happening to Common sense in our world?

[@chrisholland2016]

Damn they got more legroom and space now!!! Just like the F150 and tundra!!!

[@GlenWFord-ps8ts]

Beautiful truck.

[@kellingtonlink956]

Another well thought out review. Thanks . The Light Duty truck business in Canada, I always find quite interesting.

[@scottg6099]

Great review. The new RAM is a beauty.

[@grandemage]

Definitely adding this as a good contender when I go shopping for my F-150 diesel later this year, but only if RAM releases their diesel (*and it performs comparably) around the same time.

[@jaikarchatha1967]

GrandeMage so the Diesels apparently coming at the beginning of 2019 or late 2018 so you have to wait until then

[@penvon]

Not bad at all...I will wait til it’s 25% off MSRP next year & decide if to get one or just stick with my current ride.

[@ManilaBoy516]

Nice review!! Was that Brian beside you in the truck?

[@greatray6262]

Very nice truck. Even though I prefer the interior/exterior look of the Ram trucks I bought a Ford F150. I live in the rust belt where they salt the roads in the wintertime and it eats up sheet metal on vehicles. The F150's non rusting all aluminum body is the main reason I went with the Ford.

[@benjaminwayneb]

E Torque looks a lot like the belt drive starter/generator used on riding law mowers 40 or 50 years ago.

[@WilliamStewart1]

benjaminwayneb I don't understand it to be honest. I don't see why they couldn't of just updated the Hemi with dual injection.

[@benjaminwayneb]

William Stewart The Hemi's days a said to be numbered. Direct injection is a major redo for an engine on the way out.

[@WilliamStewart1]

benjaminwayneb Not really, head redesign, different pistons, fuel pumps, and different intake. Then it just comes down to tuning which is simple enough. Also, I don't see the Hemi going anywhere anytime soon. I think people are realising the negative effects of all the emissions and fuel econony crap, at least with a conservative government anyways.

[@bleachzzz]

Nice Review!. Can you please review the 2019 Ram Sport crew cab. I really wanna get that truck, Thanks

[@fijibatiislander7219]

Are they in Aust yet?? They do make a nice truck.. top quality 👍

[@andreasm2882]

Nice truck and great review. This truck could be on my radar if it finally does well in the small overlap crash test with the IIHS. Other than that I'll stick with my Ridgeline

[@MrGavo57]

Great video. Thanks

[@jonathanvanverdegem1157]

Nice looking truck, and a nice interior, but if I ever buy a new truck, i would plan to keep it for life. I don’t really want to buy anything new, because with all the new electronics, it will be impossible to fix in the future. These trucks will never be restored like older vehicles are

[@krazecampbell]

I went to go get one the limited is the nice fully loaded one..they told me 64k I ran out of there...nice how he didnt mention that..

[@chadsteele1]

And ppl harped on Nissan for such a long model drag out. Great review. the problem with all that tech, is it breaks, self levelling air suspension, start stop, etorque, the fluid for the rear diff to warm it up faster, sounds like expensive repairs.Make them more fuel economical. All the rest of that tech is just gimmicks to get you in the door.

[@jaikarchatha1967]

C Steele well welcome to the 21st century where my stupid generation wants all this f****** technology and that if anything goes wrong please feel free to blame my generation because we apparently want all these luxuries and trucks. I'm not saying all of it is bad I don't mind the rear differential but I could do without the e torque and the self-leveling air suspension

[@kethf4301]

I much prefer the way this version rides/drives, looks and feels to the new Ram Classic.

[@deshaunj1168]

Wait so is it still under the dodge or is this under Chrysler? No dodge logo ??

[@AGC828]

Looks like RAM has put serious thought in the redesign of the 2019. With class leading interior quality and being the only truck brand to include a 12" NAV screen. Something very worthwhile is this very tech oriented generation. the 12" screen only lacks stylus support. :) Wonder if the truck can function as a hotspot. My question about RAM trucks is...how reliable have they been? As reliable and well built as a Ford F150? There's one KZbin video of a new owner who had problems with his 12" screen...locks up and won't retain the radio statin choices. No idea if this is common in ALL 12" screens or just his. I think RAM's "Connect4 NAV system" is also brand new. If so that could explain the bugs. Needing a quick firmware upgrade by the company who did their NAV software.

[@steveortez2613]

Apple CarPlay does not work well on the 12 inch screen it drops and re connects switches back and forth to Bluetooth randomly

[@simonestella3311]

Zack you need to do a video with the Canadian only Sport model!

[@victorneckar7743]

Badass truck 👍🏻

[@ashleyramey6175]

I need money now. I need this truck in my life

[@hippo-potamus]

Is there a way to disable the auto start/stop? This is a deal breaker for me. Thnx

[@TheNewenglandboys]

Yes. Get the Hemi without the etorque. It comes in either version. I have it without it.

[@JS-fc7hc]

when are the crashing test coming out?

[@LooxJJ]

It's a great truck...when it works.

[@randymartin3948]

Does it have a new transmission are the same old one that lunges

[@waseemsells5378]

Is that anti vibration noise cancelation the same as what Honda put in their motor mounts years ago?

[@Motormouth...]

The engineers did mention that this technology has been used on engine mounts but they didn't specify

[@JakeDrives1]

I'm concerned about the long term reliability of that system!

[@crazyhass84]

JakeDrives why? It reduces the vibration. It's mounts to the frame with 4 bolts. Easy to chance and u probably wouldn't even need to change it. This truck is already more smooth than a car. If the anti vibration module did go out who cares!

[@JakeDrives1]

I just feel like if and when it goes out, or if it intermittently stops working that it'll do the opposite of "quell vibrations". I'm not an expert, I just don't believe in some of the new fangled technology. some would say "more to break" eh? Anyway, I agree the trucks are already some of the smoothest in the biz..I was actually thinking of buying one instead of a Q7 mostly for the air ride and towing.

[@crazyhass84]

JakeDrives " u feel like" is the problem. U don't have a clue so stop worrying. The physics is 100 years old. It's not new. 1000s of applications use out of phase vibrations to dampen unwanted vibrations. I know. I am an engineer.

[@gester27]

Great review! The question now is... How much will this cost hehe XD

[@jaikarchatha1967]

MackyG top trim like limited and the longhorn probably around sixty five thousand but the bass one and SLT and Bighorn / Sports you're looking at 28 to 45 k

[@tideishigh8990]

It's a Dodge, it ain't worth a plug nickel.

[@lbowsk]

I've owned Fords and Chevys. I'm buying one.

[@josephpinczer]

Rust, rust is what you need to know if you live in snow areas. Outside those it’s a great truck but in the rust belt, oof

[@kokkolino1196]

As a RAM owner for years I will have to say and ask: is that vabriation technology will solve the issues with the vabriation on the steering wheel at 1200 rpm to 2000 rpm? Or the vabriation coming from the rear from the drive shaft ? And stop blaming Goodyear for making crappy tires after all !!!! They connect will actually working or it will need software updates ones a month or the electrical system rear sensors front sensors high beams wipers will function properly this time including the air suspension as will not handle the Canadian cold or the chrome on the grill will start coming out !!! All this just to start off and under 60000km imagine in 120k??? The bottom line is is all warranty but still cost to FCA and us time off our every day life and plans!!! This are some to think about at the quality and what we paying for!!!! There are also some nice things : lols are amazing the 20” wheels but again the chrome is coming off !!! LOL !!! Anyway there are awesome with out the air suspension and the cruise amazing!!!

[@garryhopkins]

How can you mention “aerodynamic” and keep a straight face? At least you qualify it by adding the word “look”.

[@directorjustin]

Garry H It is more aerodynamically efficient, though.

[@bosse641]

Sure is nice.

[@darrenetienne5156]

Zach i am a fan of your channel and reviews!!! Can you please do a review on a 2016 or 2017 hyundai veloster please and look in to its reliablity please LIKE so he can do it PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!

[@davidvasquez3564]

That's not a truck, but an SUV with a small box on the back.

[@JogBird]

uconnect looks really laggy, imagine it after 10 yrs

[@reserva120]

base on this film the door locks look slow as well...yup this truck sucks it big time..good catch..its a loser..

[@WilliamStewart1]

JogBird Uconnect is universally accepted as the best factory UI system on the market. I've seen so many reviews now in the auto world and they've pretty well all said the uconnect is the best.

[@boomafoo9]

I should hope that improvements are made via the software integration over time, I have been quite disappointed with the implementation of technology in vehicles in the past.

[@jaikarchatha1967]

Boomafoo Uconnect has been one of the top infotainment systems across cars. Since this video looks like it doesn't have 60 frames per second nothing bad has a lot to do with the lag on the screen simply because the camera is not capturing it at full optimization. In my fathers 2017 Grand Cherokee SRT the system runs perfectly fine with zero lag only when it becomes extremely cold temperatures like -30 and below do we have issues with lag but that's the same with All Electronics.

[@jamesweinzierl7399]

JogBird with this comment I know you know nothing about this truck.

[@freddiesandoval5047]

No sunroof or motor video

[@scorpio8203]

For crying out loud where's the Ram rebel trx I want a 707HP Hellcat pickup truck Lol!

[@parkerbarhorst856]

Amen!

[@ridgeline006]

start stop feature not for me

[@TheNewenglandboys]

You can buy it without the start stop.

[@Statimtek]

Nice looking truck, the big question mark will be reliability. Dodge trucks and Jeeps have not had a good reputation for dependability lately

[@virenvs905]

Statimtek Actually. The later model ram trucks are quite reliable. Take good care of it and it will take care of you.

[@jaikarchatha1967]

Statimtek I can tell you from personal experience that lately FCA products have been good. I have a 2010 Ram 1500 and a 2017 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat plus my father has a 2017 Grand Cherokee SRT. The two 2017's have had zero issues my 2010 on the other hand well let's just say it's going to go soon

[@Dirtkid98505]

2010 is pre Fiat ownership. I had a 2011 pre fiat Ram and now have a 2014 that is under Fiat and the fit, finish, ride quality, and drive train is like a completely different vehicle even though it is technically the same platform

[@Statimtek]

Problem is Dodge Trucks, certain Jeeps and certain Fiats have been consistently rated, for the past few years as having poor reliability. That is something to seriously consider before shelling out your hard earned money. I would rather have my vehicle spend more time in my garage than at my mechanics garage.If you know what I mean.

[@Dirtkid98505]

Most vehicles have now a day's because of the high production. I've had fords that were absolute junk and Ford's that lasted 300k without a problem. In today's truck market there's no reason to keep them past warranty so I wouldn't be too worried about the reliability. If something breaks it gets fixed for free!

[@Cupillac]

Hate the gear dial. Coloum shifter forever!

[@jaikarchatha1967]

Cupillac only problem is that now it is all shifters are electronic and why have a shifter that takes up more Visual and practical space when it does the same as a dial shifter it just doesn't make sense to do something like that anymore

[@gianfrancoa]

1 Inch=2.5 cm. 4 inch= 10 cm

[@iBOOM]

1 Inch equals in 2,54 cm.

[@athletejmv]

great products, awesome reviews, but pathetic customer service and quality control :-/

[@randallrandolph5028]

Ram makes tundras now?

[@entropy_of_principles]

very underrated truck, sad.

[@mustasheolll2020]

Dude look at the sales figures, they are doing very well, they beat out Chevy in 2019

[@jaredhermans8478]

bed is wayyy to short

[@thukey446]

I love the ram 1500 I love gas

[@Packinheat1175]

Wow...”E-torque”....bet some poor sucker can’t wait to have to repair that one day off warranty. Then again, now that they have made trucks so expensive you can no longer afford to pay cash, they are only planning on it lasting 8 years anyway.

[@virenvs905]

Ryan Ryan Electric motors are cheaper and less complex. They also last a long time. Just don't drive through a river. 😉

[@Packinheat1175]

Viren vs lol, true. I don’t think we learned anything from the last financial collapse. I bet this thing is a cool $80k in Canada. Can be yours for $1200 a month for the next 8 years.

[@directorjustin]

When adjusted for inflation, truck prices today are similar to how they have been in the past.

[@Packinheat1175]

Justin incorrect. The prices of trucks has more than doubled since 2005. My income has not. $80000 for a truck is insane and should be illegal.

[@Dirtkid98505]

For Base Prices over the past 30 Years: In 1988 the Price of a new Ram 150 was about $11,000 Today that is about $24,000 In 1998 the Price of a new Ram 1500 was about $16,000 Today that is about $24,000 In 2008 the Price of a new Ram 1500 was about $21,000 Today that is about $24,000 2018 the Base Price of a Ram 1500 is about $32,000 So the price relative for inflation remained about the same until recently

[@aktamakov]

Switched to 2019 Ram from 2014 Silverado and absolutely hate the truck. No bumper steps- sucks, everything is plastic, audio sucks, barely any cabbies/pockets on the doors. If it was like going to walmart and just returning the car, I would already do it. It's terrible all around! Interior storage is like the worst design ever. The center council, in chevy I was able to store all my water in the bin and still have access to the actual center storage where the cup holder are. In Ram, in order to access the center storage, you need to slide the cup holder inside of the bin, but when the bin is full of bottles of water, you can't slide anything, so you end up with wasted space that you can't use. Also auto-fold mirrors, they only fold from inside, you can't make them fold from the key fob like you could on 2014 chevy. Talk about key fob, still have to use to unlock the car, there's no sensors on the doors that unlock the car when you approach it, like 2017 and up chevy had. Suspension is smooth, but when you make turns and hit a pot hole, it feels like your tire just fell off, and doesn't hold any weight at ALL!!! I would carry 40 sheets of drywall without any issues in all my chevy trucks, I loaded two pantries into the tuck and it sag down pretty hard. I guess one last thing, fuel economy- never got it to be close to 22 MPG and fueling up twice a week now instead of once as it was with chevy and on chevy I was able to get even up to 28 MPG when I would drive nicely.

[@freed14760]

1st
