What I like about this review is that it's from the perspective of an owner, who really seems to look at the practical pros and cons of the truck. It doesn't sound like a RAM brochure, which I can get at any Dodge/RAM dealer.

@@tweedpenguin712 No! Many _"reviewers"_ try too hard NOT to say anything that might upset the manufacturer; and end up sounding like their reading from a marketing brochures for the product they're reviewing. Others, while they may give positive and negative opinions about things they notice, they still come off as being mealy-mouthed. Those who give us a thorough, genuine review are very much in the minority.

I’m a gm guy and I thought the bumper steps were a gimmick when they first came out. Once you own a truck with them and use a truck with out them, you realize they are useful. The bed side steps on the gm HD’s is a must in my opinion and I’m 6’3”.

Great looking truck. I looked at a BigHorn dually a couple of years ago. I definitely like the 2019 and newer Ram trucks. For now I am enjoying my 3500 HD 4x4 SRW 2018 GMC. My truck tows our 35' 5th wheel with ease. Hard for me to go to a Ram just because of the GMC dealership I do business with. They are awesome from the sale of the truck to the maintenance and unexpected issues. Thanks for the review of your truck. I love that Delmonico red color and the midnight edition package. Happy New Year TK.

One hate you probably haven't noticed yet until you marry that fifth wheel. Is the fuel tank capacity I have a 19 3500 Big Horn and it has the 32 or 35 gallon tank. The truck average 10 MPG when towing. I'm looking now before seasons change to upgrade to the 50 gallon tank. Like to go longer distances without fueling. S&B make a 50gal fuel tank. keep up the videos.

I bought a wireless wifi for the outlet and will turn on the heater an hour or two before needing to drive. It can be programmed to turn on a few hours before the morning drive. Save electric and its better for the engine.

Has to add a 80 gallon fuel tank to offset the stock 32 gallon tank. Poor truck already has 85k miles on it and I haven't even had it for a year

Great truck 👍. I have a Ram 1500 Big Horn North Edition that I bought in November. I went with the 5.7 Hemi. It has a 1 inch factory lift so the bed is high. My solution is to sit on the tailgate and spin myself around. I’m 53 and not as limber as I used to be and 6’2 250 lbs. The height doesn’t really bother me yet. So far I can’t really think of anything I don’t like about my truck. Mine has 4 auto and a rear locker which are features I wanted. I absolutely love the Ram and I do plan on keeping her a long time.

Good Review. I have almost the same truck only mine is the gray color night edition. To comment on an easier way to utilize the truck bed. For my truck, I basically got the same step bars that you have but I got the longer ones that go from wheel to wheel. Because our wheels are black, it blends in nicely. I want to say it cost like an extra 50 bucks total for the longer ones but what a difference that has made in being able to use that step on both sides to get into the truck box up next to the back glass. The second thing I did was I got a truck stepladder that straps to the inside of your tailgate. So when you drop your tailgate and you want to get into your truck bed, the ladder folds left onto the ground. It’s only about an inch thick and if I remember correctly it can hold a lot of weight. It’s so easy to use that it only takes 5 seconds to fold it into place and set it and then my five-year-old uses it to climb into the truck box. That ladder cost me 150 bucks on Amazon. My only pet peeve is how rough the ride is when I don’t have my trailer back there. These trucks ride better when something heavy is attached to them. But I do love the truck though my next one will have the ram air Suspension system to better smooth out the ride when there’s no load on the back.

Great video. Also enjoyed your one on the buying process. I drove Jeep GC’s for 25 years, but after driving Ram pickups for rentals the past several years decided to buy my first truck. Always wanted a Cummins diesel, so after months of searching coast to coast I found the 3500 Longhorn LTD HO Cummins I wanted at a dealer in NC. At the time many dealers were charging a 6-10K market adjustment, I was able to get it for less than sticker price. I use it as a daily driver and to drive north from FL several times per year for business. I understand your comment on comfort. After driving 12 hours straight through I feel like I just drove to the store & back. Haven’t done any towing yet, but looking for a fifth wheel hitch & a RV to start. Still running my own business but plan to start doing some travel in near future. Will probably rent the 5th wheel for the first several trips. Keep up the great work. Love all the videos you guys do & look forward to more!

i just found your channel on KZbin. I like your content overall. You have made some very good points. I bought a 2018 Ram 2500 and ran into an issue with the payload capacity. I had the 5th wheel/gooseneck prep package as I saw you have. Check your payload capacity on your driver's door pillar. Chances are that the pin weight of your 5th wheel will exceed the payload capacity. You would not have a problem with towed weight as with a conventional travel or utility trailer. The problem is the 2500 doesn't have the payload capacity (trailer pin weight, cargo, including the weight of the 5th wheel hitch, passengers, fuel, etc.) to safely tow any but the lightest 5th wheel.

I keep a small step ladder in the bed to get it and out. I set it back of my fifth wheel hitch near the tailgate and it’s much safer than the GM step on the bumper and I think it’s safer to have my hand on the bed when I step up into the bed versus Ford who has the mid step. Still a great review!

It has a 4x4 auto mode, I hate it because it runs off of a vacuum system, so engagement isn't always smooth in auto mode. I wish it was the 6 speed manual instead of 5 speed auto. Aside from those items, I love the truck and its capabilities.

I have an 04 f250. Great truck for its age! Always something to fix! Be nice to own a new truck like that , but 80000 to 90000 is a little steep for me . Keep up the great video's. Thanks

David Hi I enjoyed your review. I have a 2019 Ram 2500 Crew Cab, 4WD, Long bed with the Cummins engine. I love the truck. I went form a 2005 F350 to the Ram and was blown away. I have two things I wanted to mention. I'm 75 and my way of dealing with the high bed is to step on the rear wheel and pull my self up, it works. The other is towing and weight. The problem withe a 3/4 ton is if you have a diesel and 4WD they add a lot of weight and all that weight comes off the payload. I have a 5th wheel that is around 10,000 lb loaded and was shocked to find I was close to overweight.

Your right about towing. Ya want to be comfortable. No one wants the truck to be handled by the trailer, want the truck to handle the trailer. Ya know, Don’t let the tail wag the dog....lol. Great video as always guys. Happy new year guys.

Me too. Job ONE though is getting an aftermarket fifth wheel that fits the factory setup. I didn't want the one that RAM sells - want something a little more sophisticated.

I had a 2014 RAM 3500 Laramie with the 6.7 diesel. I loved the truck but recalls were killing me. I live 60 miles from the nearest dealer and constantly taking it in and finding rides back and forth just wore me down. When I traded it in it still had 4 recalls pending waiting for parts. Hoping your not having the same issue.

A small aluminium 2 step for $30 is better than anything the manufacturer offers. You can move it around the entire truck and use it for other locations, like camper, roof racks, washing, looking under the hood, etc.

Definitely agree with the truck bed access Ram needs to improve. I have a 3500 6.4 hemi srw and use a 4 or 6 foot step ladder to get in and out the truck bed.

FYI: The truck bed corner step is a aftermarket part that the OEM's purchase in bulk and sell. I did a quick Google search and the first one to pop up was a little over US$200. Doing a little more looking I found Bestop and AMP Research make them. I don't believe GM offers them; but RAM, Toyota, Nissan, and Ford do offer them.

I can`t remember the name of it. But I just got it for my brother inlaw. There is a aftermarket adjustable step ladder that bolts on the tailgate. It folds down to the ground from the left side of the tailgate then stores up on the tailgate when not in use. But you do have to drill into the tailgate to mount it.

Great video and what a sweet truck. Love the "blackout/no chrome" edition. In MAY 2020, I bought a 2020 Chevy Silverado Texas Edition LT 4x4 with the max trailering package. Looking to get a Rockwood Mini Lite 2509S travel trailer which will tip the scales with a dry weight of 5300 lbs. The truck has a 2039 lb. payload, so this trailer, even loaded with a family of 3, will be way under the max towing of 11,400 lb towing capacity. I plan on using an Andersen weight distribution/sway control hitch and will likely be towing 7500 lbs.

Team Truck King, I assume you are strictly tracking fuel consumption so you might as well include those numbers in your periodic reports. This overview also reminded me that once upon a time cars were just as customizable as today's pickups. I hope the idea of catering to specific consumer choice does not evaporate for truck buyers the way it has for car buyers.

I will report fuel consumption - and as far as customization, don't worry the OEMs will continue to offer more and more ways to make a truck your own.

I've always had a 3/4 ton lifted with big tires, but now only have a 2wd ranger. Boy it's nice loading and unloading the bed! Lol. Alot of trade offs too but she has nearly 500,000 miles so not too many complaints especially when it comes to filling the tank! Lol. Either way that is one nice looking ram!
