+1 $10,000 will buy a lot of gas!

Resale value will recoup all of this money.

@@wesleydean4228 yeah the cummins will hardly lose any value especially in this market. i think if you plan on keeping it for a long long time, get the cummins, regardless of maintenance costs. also i live in texas and diesel and unleaded gas cost around the same. maybe a $0.10 difference. I’d probably delete the emissions crap. nobody cares about that stuff here

@@skully720 - that 68RFE though!!

Hemi will pull just as much really. The issue is the range while towing is terrible the moment you hit steep climbs the Cummins shines

@@frogger2011ify depends on how often you tow then i guess. Looking at the pricing on these in my area im shocked to see them costing the same if not less than a 1500

@@Danstheman1357 well asside from the fact that dodges build quality is shot and the electronics are wonky and the body bushings pop when your turn hard.. the steering wheel keeps slipping on the the draglink.....oh so many many many issues with my 2020 2500cummins. Besides all of that it tows good and when it's not being a Regen nightmare and when it actually cleans out it runs alot more efficient then my 2019 1500 long horn ever did

@@frogger2011ify Yea true. love dodges but same issues with my 2010 ram 1500.

@@frogger2011ify I'd agree with that. The Cummins will literally keep the same fuel mileage towing as well as empty. The hemi will have a huge drop on fuel economy while towing. It all depends on how much and how often you tow. As the Cummins will have the higher initial and maintenance cost, but will give you the best performance towing.

I know this is a month old but was curious what your fuel mileage is towing that much

@@bricegreen9616 probably between 6 and 8

I also have 6.4 with 4.10's and 35's I get 5-7 with gooseneck and highway speeds, and solid 7 going 55-60 pulling a 42 ft 5th wheel. I love the truck, it has treated me very well.

5 lol I tossed my cookies

People aren’t buying this because there daily driving it

@@michaellewis4632I daily my truck. I’m a rancher. Gas is fine most of the time.

I wish I got a configuration with the 50 gal tank but I love my Hemi 2500 with the 4.10. It's a beast!

What kind of mpg with the 4.10?

11-12 city 14 - 15 highway

@@dh-kb3nb that mpg is after towing the max 16k? Damn!

No. That milage isn't while towing. That is almost empty running around. The 41 ft long, 13.5 ft tall 16k fifth wheel (parachute) brings it down to 6.5 -7 mpg. 8-9 with normal trailers.

I have the exact truck as you, just clocked 75k...just wondering though, mine has developed strange shift issues from 4th down to 3rd...kinda concerned, any similar issues with yours?

Its a trade off for the engine

$42k? Where?

Tradesman or die sick over priced loaded trucks

Maybe you can delete ac,delete pwr windows crank em

Agree

I think fuel economy is another big part and why a lot of people like the cummins. If I keep my foot out of it, I average right at 18.9 mpg with my 2014 6.7. I also tow 14,000 pounds a few times a month and it's a dream to tow with compared to my last truck, a 2001 Chevrolet 2500hd crew cab with the 8.1 gas and Allison 5 speed. My only real complaint about my Ram is the transmission, it feels like garbage compared to that Allison 1000.

@@Nothingtoya agreed! I think TFL got like 3mpg with the Ram 2500 Hemi 3.73 going uphill on the ike gauntlet. There's definitely benefits to people using diesel instead especially with mountains!

My hemi around here on hilly back roads is like 14mpg, driving like grandpa though, interstate gets close to 20

Is it comfortable?

I got the small screen too, all those big screens are a "want", don't need them, it's a truck not a escalade.

The level 2 is what im getting next month

My rebel has the better headlights. How are the headlights at night

@@HardHeadMilitary Great once you change them out for LED bulbs. Changed out the halogens for the GTR CSP minis and now no problem. Standard halogens are crap. I have a 2020 Tradesman, level 2 with the 8.4 and 4.10 gears. Also changed out the halogen fog lights for switchback LED's. Nice to have a choice between white and amber on the fogs.

@@mikeg4317 thank you for the tip bro.

How's it holding up?

Delete lol

@@Nothingtoya Let's face it modern diesel is not built to last. the 12 value or 7.3 P/S days are gone even if you delete.

If you were towing 15k with this truck, you wouldn't be going anywhere no matter how much gas you gave it. This truck is a total pig on anything over 9k

You have no idea how right you are, my Isuzu is fucked

James Miller except the stupid TPM light comes on immediately.

The TPMS can be changed with aftermarket programming. As for tires wearing funky is quit the opposite. If you have full inflation like the door sticker unloaded. You’ll have a rough ride along with wearing in the middle of the tire. Drop down unloaded and air up if towing heavier.

What do to mean option out? Like you can upgrade the interior?

Yes, much more than other models.@@salsal88

Add a pedal commander bud. You'll feel a shit ton better about it. I have a 2020 and it feels like a slug without it. With it though... Just add it and tell me I'm wrong.

@@qwizziethakid I have a pedal commander. The problem i have with the 3:73 is when i am towing my travel trailer. Btw I love the pedal commander, best bang for the buck. I originally purchased it for my '17 Rebel and lucky enough it worked for my 2019 2500

What king of mpg are you getting?

@@mr.snowfoam1542 now that is a different topic all together lolol About 12- 13 city and 16-17 hwy. She is a thirsty lil bitch. But man she is awesome.

@@mr.snowfoam1542 the cool thing so far has been the milage doesn't really suffer under tow.. even at 10k it is around 11.5 mpg

Any issues with squat after the level kit? I've been thinking about the Carli, just don't know if squat will be a problem when towing. Thanks.

@@mikeg4317 I mean yea the truck is made to be level under load from factory. Lifting the front end aftermarket will always cause squat if you don't do airbags. That being said, I've never had the rig cause my truck to bottom out and it's over 10k lbs. The aftermarket level kit from carli replaces the front coils but keeps the factory rear coils so it shouldn't affect your towing capabilities.

WELL DNT MAXXX IT AND THINK ITS GONNA HOLDDDD. SOUNDS LIKE YOU NEEDED THE 3500 IN THE 1ST PLACE.

What kind of mpg do you get towing/non-towing?

@@mr.snowfoam1542 12.5 mpg not towing about 10.5 towing, less in the mountains. you can do better if you baby it but I have heavy foot.

@@johnnicpon5783 yea you got an anvil for a foot talking 13mpg..😆 I would go slower but the streets would shoot me in the face.

Did you Disable the MDS

Jacob, is that even possible?

@@bobby1970 yes Bobby. I have no need for a diesel.

@@jeffreywhite7657 , yeah, same here. Diesel's are just too loud and too smokey. Also, too much maintenance, and I think the DEF fluid is ridiculous.

@@bobby1970 if I was hauling heavy stuff then I'd have to have one. But the maintenance is crazy on those diesels.

And fuel mileage numbers.

Off the line there’s more oomph I think is what he was getting at.

Plus he has the 3.73 not the 4.10.

Same here

I have a 2019 Bighorn and use mine all the time. With the front window down there's a lot of buffering ( guess thats what you call it ) going on. Back window cuts all that out.

You must not have kids 😎

@@michaelwright278 That;s exactly how and why I use mine.

@@michaelwright278 EXACTLY!!!!

Towing capacity is around 17k with a little over 3k in the bed on the 4.10 gears.

It will drag it like you stole it.

And add emissions on the 6.7 it reduces payload by almost 900 pounds according to published payload and towing lbs.

You forgot to mention that most people get the gasser over diesel because they don’t want to pay $10k extra just for an engine. But, I completely agree with you.

I bought a 2018 Tradesman 1500 for that very reason. $28k vs $40k. The Tradesman line put me in a new truck without bending me over every month. That's why I'm looking at the Tradesman 2500 now for an upgrade. I dont need all the fluff, I just need a decent truck at an affordable price. I'm currently playing around with the Build A Ram website and looking at $42k 2wd or $45k 4wd. Its cheaper than the 1500's I'm seeing on the lots. I've been very pleased with amenities provided in the Tradesman line. It gives me everything I need and nothing I dont need. (Except XM radio, all I need is bluetooth)

Cause cummings is more trendy to own for people who don't really need them . Lmao.

Bingo. Wait until it fails and you have to follow the procedure for manually or/mechanically, putting it gear. Silly novelty. I'd like to think im not an old fart who's not open to new things, but those new things have to make sense! I'm not a fan of push button start, either...

You do know that the dial is an option, and that the column shifter comes standard right?

@@bababooey7576 Like I said to him, the column shifter comes standard on all models. You would know that, but you'd rather complain about something that doesn't affect you.

@@gasolinediesel972 Lovely personality. Rams cause great issues for us at work and, atleast the models we have, have been the most awful vehicles out of the big three.. Even the regular column shifters have failed on us, even after ram had an update/fix for them. So, while I just put my foot in my mouth with the column shifter failure, after knocking the dial one, it's just another disappointment from this company. One truck pops out of gear regularly. Two have had issues with fuelling, where you can only trickle fuel in to fill the tank, or the pump shuts off. Atleast with The older Dodges/Rams we had, they needed a new front end parts every second oil change. HVAC mode door gears stripped, so improper operation of the HVAC. I could go on but, then again they don't affect me. Ford and GM are by no means perfect, but the Rams disappoint the most, from our experience at work...

@@gasolinediesel972 All gas RAMs come with the dial shifter. All diesel RAMs come with a column shifter.

My 21 6.4 4X4 crew cab 410 gears, has no trouble at all towing my skid steer. Trailer and machine weighs in at about 11,000 lbs.

Ram gas engines come with the dial shifter. Diesels come with the column shifter

@@lc7917 thanks you problem solved you are awesome

Dude seriously if you're towning 17000 daily you should get a diesel.

Rides awesome

Or it’s because the tires are at 80 freaking psi

Yea, but if that 68rfe trans goes out.... Youre talking $10-12k

@@lyricalprophet100 Not all 6.7 have 68rfe’s. I’m getting an Aisin.

Dodge doesn't even have cummins techs at the dealership..and all the parts on backorder..im soo glad I got the hemi. Many of the cummins are at the dealership with unknown repair date..😆

I am one of 3 diesel techs at my dealer. The Cummins itself has very very few failures. There is some after treatment issues but that’s across the board with diesels now. The 6.4 hemi is a gas guzzler and is gutless in comparison.

Same

No telescoping. That will come when they finally update to the new cab.

Measured myself a few months ago and I’m taller than I thought😆

Planning on it

Sweet can't wait don't forget to mention the regular plug in the back of the bed now

The hemi is a heavenly engine...

Yup...5' 6"...sucks! Do you have an update? Did you do anything to remedy your situation such as sitting on a cushion or raising seat modification or anything? Thx
