Hi Stanley. I am a white collar worker and respect the blue collar industry. What I get most out of your videos is the way your treat your employees and encouraging personality. God bless you too.

I don’t know how i can move snow for 17 hours then come home and watch your videos of snow removal 😂

Well I have to say I have been an automotive technician for 25 years I'm an ASE certified Master tech and it doesn't matter what you buy they all have fail points built into them and the only reason I'm biased toward Dodge is because I like the way they look and I've have had quite a few over the years and I have had good luck with them and thank you for your blessings, stan

The Rams are great trucks. Had my 14 6.4 for 5 years and 70k and it’s never let me down. Can’t beat them.

I always appreciate the honest reviews on equipment.....no sugar coating here, just good old fashioned honesty😁👍🏼

That 6.4 Hemi is underrated. It is smooth, powerful and just delivers. It’s a tow beast and is reliable. Really you said this truck is BORING. Well for your work, boring is good! Great video!

Its called RAM for a good reason. I live and breathe RAM trucks. Always have and always will. Much love from Vancouver 🇨🇦❤️

Great video. Good trucks. Out work any thing out there. Thank you for sharing.

Review of the tires is spot-on. I have owned three Ram 2500s (still own two of them) and the tires on all three are shot by 20,000 miles.

I absolutely love how much I have learned from you over the years, thank you so much!

I'd love one for fresh look lawn maintenance it would be a nice touch thanks again love the videos two have allways learned a lot

You are correct the factory tires are junk. Ours lasted between 12-15,000 as well. When washing the truck go to the front and back of the rear tire, then put the washer nozzle between the inner fender liner and the open space under the bed. This allows the washer to clean out all the mud and salt that causes rust in the wheel well. We have had Ram trucks since 2011 and have never had one rust over the rear tires like you described because we wash them in this fashion. It is surprising to see how much dirt and grime collect in this area. Great review!!!

Love/Hate is a perfect description. I’ve got a 2019 crew 2500 with the Hemi. No loss of power, quiet cab and comfortable. Run a Meyer 9.5 v-blade and a snowex tailgate salter, begin each storm with a full pallet of salt in the bed. The truck is a beast, but the body is horrible! Mine is covered in little dents as well!

Andrew Camarata calls the body on his dodge tinfoil. It's one of the few times I've seen him legit mad. I loved the part when you said you had a regular cab because you don't like to torture yourself.

This is great, I have been doing a little landscaping, friends and family, plowing also and your videos are awsume, you helped a lot when pricing plow jobs and in coming up with my plowing contract, so a big shout out from maine, and go get em

Absolutely love that Ben Bostick tune. Great video. My father inlaw had a gaser 2500 and just loved it.

Look at this sincere guy and his great channel, man! I love how there's quiet for a few days and suddenly he pulls another piece out of hat. Gotta love the Dirt Monkey! Greetings from Czech republic, Europe.

I'm really happy for you guys, that your having great luck with the pickups. I've heard more times than I can count of current gen hemis eating camshafts or puking the whole engine. One common theme it seems to those cases is LOTS of idle time. IE: squad cars and pickups on construction sites and in mining. Hope they continue to serve you guys in the years ahead, trouble free!

Bought a 98 1/2 ton Ram new and still have it today and it has been one of the best truck that I've ever had. Can't say enough about it. It's towed, hauled construction trailers and materials, done the camping and back trails, etc, and it's not even 4 wheel drive and it just keeps doing the job. Have no complaints about this machine whatsoever!!!

Awesome video! I had a ram for a while and liked it never had a problem! Keep the videos coming!

Great video bro my favorite video I like this video I enjoy watching all of your video's and I can't wate to see the next video bro👍😉

Between my little brother, my step dad, and I we have every generation of dodge/ Ram pick up trucks. None of our trucks have any body rust nor transmission issues. My 2nd gen and 4th gen have over 300,000 miles. My 5th gen is rolling over 150,000 no issues. My trucks are v10 and 6.4L. My step dad and little brother have the cummins. I’ll stand by my trucks. I live in PA and I rarely wash my trucks. They all have dents and dings but it’s a truck it adds character and a story.

Watching while making breakfast again! Bacon, eggs and pancakes today.

Toyo m55 tires, ran those for years with 0 issues. BF GOODRICH TRACTION T/As is a great snow tire, not to be run in summer. I had rams since 96 and my first diesel in 99, 01,03,05 , 13 and my big ram 5500 is a16. All my trucks were 6sp except for the 16 and that was my first auto, and I would go back to a stick immediately if they offer them again.

Keep it up Stan. I’m surprised how well them dodges held up

16:45 The Ram might go through the snow better because of its stiffer chassis and coil spring rear suspension with trailing arms (as opposed to bare leaf springs without trailing arms). Preventing wheel hop helps so much in the snow.

Stan great video I have an 07 Ram 2500 cummins and had alot of good luck with her. I am not easy on her either.

Hey Stanley, my boss has a 2017 Ram 2500 crew cab short bed with the 6.4 and he hauls trailers with our 10k lbs excavator and his factory tires lasted about 40k miles, we loved them!! I have a 2020 Ram 2500 crew cab long bed 6.4 and have 9k miles on my factory tires and no complaints, even plow with it, just throw some weight in the back

2:57 love the bungee cord throttle😂. Hey as long as it works!!!

That was a pretty spot on review Stan. My buddy has a 2019 2500 and he beats the snot out of it (general contractor/ surveyor) and that thing keeps comming back for more. Great video catch you on the next one.

Absolutely love my 17 ram 2500 diesel...bought it brand new for work/play and groceries and has 115 thousand miles and hasn't skipped a beat

Good vid. I will never go ram again but glad yours is working well for you

Can’t agree more Stan! I ran a 8’ straight blade on my ‘15 Ford F-250 for 5yrs..I switched over this season to a ‘17 ram 2500 6.4 with the same plow and it’s just keeps moving forward. The Ford just seemed to light in the rear end. For that reason I lean towards the ram. As long as the body is on the frame I could care less of the body shape

I have been watching from day one love the videos and I really love this new fore-mat I have been Mowing for 30 years with cerebral Palsy and learn many estimate ideas from you shout out would be awesome Chris O’Shaughnessy Riverside Lawns Toms River NJ Keep up the good videos

Sweet Video Stanley! Thanks Bud!

I am a Ford guy for life. But, I had an opportunity for a really good deal on a Ram back on 2015. Got the Ram extended cab. I love it. The transmission is an Allison 8 speed. No hesitation on downshifting. Doesn't miss a beat. The firestone tires lasted 25000 miles, which was pushing it. I got the Falken Wildpeak A/T's and they are terrific. Got 45000 miles on them and they still have another year to go (about). Just turned 70000 miles.

Ram Tough 🐏 💪🏼 6.7 that's what I drive !

Stan, I o so enjoy watching your videos, we are getting pounded here in NJ, its crazy cold and snowy, and no matter how much salt I throw down its still piling up, you have so much fun with all the toys and I get a tinny snowblower that clogs up just trying to clear my driveway lol, have fun, and say safe

Greetings from Cow Hampshire: 2004 F250 blew a head gasket at 150K. 2019 RAM 2500 6.4L with 15K, tires are about tread life, purchased Fisher 7’ 6” straight blade HD2 this past January - no complaints at all with this truck & plow.

Another good report from the real world. Thanks. and for the record, I am blessed and I am after it... Thanks again...

I've had my RAM for 5 years, and the only complaint is the rust that you mentioned over the rear wheel wells... I was a Chevy Truck Guy, but after my RAM, it's hard to go back..

It goes through better from what I've been told because the box actually has some weight to it vs the aluminum ford boxes

Keep up the great entertaining work. Whenever I’m at work or school and see the notification I always wanna watch it right away

Another quality video, thanks!

Shout out would be cool! Every time I see the back plow I want one myself!

Price is going up with no cap they need to put a cap because fifty now was thirty plus. Even new stuff will sit. Looks great

I have a 05 Dodge Dakota. 200,000 miles on it. To this day still runs great. People ask me why don't I get a new one, why it stills works. Agreed about the rust around the wheel well. Love a shout out for my business J&J Landscaping and Irrigation. Thanks for your honesty in the videos Love them. Learn so much from you

God bless you Stanley I love ur videos and opinions on products and how u give honest opinion on everything.

Our company has been using all fords. They have lasted really well, both the gas and the diesels have treated us well. We currently have 63 trucks on the road.

really regreting selling my 2001 F250 crew cab 5 speed man fx4. it has that gutless 5.4 trition but it was solid

I am going out for my first snow removal night I am starting off shoveling wish me luck your videos are definitely helping

I have plowed snow for 42 years, had Dodge, Chevy, and a Ford, will never have a Chevy or Ford again, I plow now with a 96 Dodge 2500 Cummins since 1999, best plow truck I have ever owned and won't get another, just redo this one. I watch you guys plow snow and you guys do way to much double plowing over where you already plowed, but you haven't plowed as long as i have. My Dodge has 400,000 miles on it and i use it to plow and pull a 30 goose neck, i will always keep Dodge tu s for all my work.

Hey Stan! Glad you posted a video about the ram trucks, good to know they held up with all the abuse. MOPAR OR NOCAR!

"I don't like that it dents when it gets hit, and factory tires suck." LOL Shocking.

All of the big three have great trucks, I’ve owned them all, I’ve had good, bad an ugly with all of them, I’ve seen all three with nothing but problems right from the start and I’ve seen all three go forever without a hiccup.

I have a 2014 ram 2500 6.4 gas and tow a skid steer everyday. Have 110k miles with no issues yet. I love it so far.

I would love to see a Chevy in you’re fleet to compare performance

Important detail: This is a 2500 series truck. This will definitely hold up better then a 1500 of the same brand.

Fascinating critique of these machines.

I have a 2017 RAM 2500 and it's had zero issues also. It's been a great truck and was half the price of the Ford I was looking at. No rust either and I live here in Utah where they salt the roads like crazy as well. What I did was spray the underbody with Rust-Oleum 248656 Professional Grade Rubberized Undercoating Spray when it was new and it still looks new underneath. My brother has done that to his truck also and hasn't had a hint of rust either.

I love to drive in the snow And I've driven all different makes and models of vehicles in the snow tractors And as far as vehicles with wheels Seems like Dodges do the best out of anything

blessed we all are to have these kind and considerate videos. ur the man Stan. btw wheres the whole monkey tie into this?

Great video Stan!

Stanley, love the channel. My name is Matt Sr. Founder/CEO of 412 PSE Kusto.z, LLC. I noticed the box behind you in this video. We are a family/first responder owned & operated Feniex dealer. One of their longest tenured dealers. I'm believe yinz need more warning power specifically on your plowing equipment. We would love to work with you and share our 25+ years expertise in our industry.

Give that 6.4 some time and you’ll need a “valve adjustment” because that engine is flawed. They have have problems oiling the cam and lifters. The lobes start to flatten and they sound like a diesel. Dodge has a solution and that is tightening the valve springs, which only compounds the issue. 2018 power wagon with 68,000 miles and I need a new engine. I’m buying a Ford with the off-road package, it comes with a rear locker.

Rams are good trucks , I’m surprised how well the transmission held up too.

Interesting, thanks for making this video.👍

thanks for doing. so my setup is 2016 2500hd silverado double cab. 29hd snoway and snoway spreader. At this point I would probably get this again. currently approx 30k. I love to see and get honest feedback on other brands - plows etc. God bless you and family and appreciate all you do.

Texas pride knows how to make some good trailers.

Take the bed off and convert it to a open box and you’ll never fuss about rust or dents again.

Thank you for the shout out

I've had an 02 1500 that I plowed with 5.9 gasser. It was a tank 220k miles and sold it yesterday for parts for 1k. 03 2500 I sold with 206k on it. That one the bottom bearings started to go I believe. Now I'm on an 04 1500 Laramie with 115k on it hemi I'm putting a plow on it for next year, so far I love this one it crawls through anything especially deep snow .02/08 drop valve seats and 08/ get the hemi tick where the lefters eat the cam shaft. They don't get enough oil flow at idle. The fix is to put in a hell cat oil pump and lifters.great video bro

The gm hd independent front suspension is the most amazing thing to plow with

Would you ever try the big 6.6 gas that chevy has out. Love the content keep up the good work Stanley.

Hey, Polski, you know talking about the RAMS 'pick me up trucks', gotta mention, ANDREW CAMARATA has/had two of them. They too have a "couple" dents and he seems to work them hard. You talk about the interior, well on his older one, he needed a radio change. Simple for him to do and since the space needed to be larger, he took his CHAINSAW to the dash and enlarged the opening. Seriously, many of you guys have RAMS and I found that interesting and your testament probably sold a few more. New FORDS are aluminum so talk about dents, much tougher $$$ to repair on aluminum bodies. They should be changing BRAKELINE metal to STAINLESS. The choice is yours and we love what you do anywho so have at it! Thanks for another one! Sonny (CT)

The father of our industry!! loved the sign off Stan! My crew would love a shout out at Crimson Landscapes!

I would love to hear Frankie’s opinion on the holzfforma, I’m sure he cuts more wood than probably the rest of your company combined

Nahh...ya just gotta twist the chains to shorten em up 😂🤣.

Love the point of view stuff, awesome work🙌🏼👍🏼🔥🔥keep the videos coming :)

My 16 Ram 2500 Crewcab really does do everything I’ve ever been stupid enough to do to save a trip. Last week I had 3200lb of concrete on top of my 600lb toolbox, while towing a dump trailer with 4 yards of 3/4 gravel in the front and a pallet of cinder blocks in the back. Still stopped no problem and had no real problem getting up to highway speed

Don’t care what truck I’m driving “I HATE SNOW “ I’m 60 this year and have done enough this is my last year.

Headed out now to go play in the snow 18” storm if not more

I am surprised how well the dodges held up. Thanks Stan really like your videos

I believe we all keep watching Stan is because you are 1000% the real deal guy ! Honestly, funny and good hearted ! Thank you for sharing all of your knowledge! If you want to give me a shoot out that’s cool if not that’s fine as well!

Most fords are open differentials and rams have a LSD so yeah that helps going through the snow

Hope you didn’t jinx yourself by making this haha. Next video: the dodge fell apart like the Blues Brothers car.

Have had 2 , F-150s , 98 - extended cab; 3rd door 4X4 triton V-8 gas. 489k when I traded it in, bought it used , May 2005,with 107k. No “ big “ engine issues, just normal, alternator goes bad ( 4x) , coolant hose between engine & heater core , 4X4 engage unit, and spider gear, starter. That’s when I traded it in. Got a 2006 4- door V/8 triton 4X4 -93k . after a lot of F ix O r R epairer D aily , traded it off for a 2012 Ram 4 door 2 doors 3/4 , 4X4 Hemi V-8 love it !!!!

I agree with you Stan on how long it takes to truly get an opinion on a truck. When I got my 2019 Ram 1500 I hated it after the first 3 months. Now that I’ve had it for two years I absolutely love the truck!

I have owned Ford F-350 “s my whole life. The regular cab space has shrunk. Horrible there is no room for anything anymore.

He says 3 years like that’s a long time😂

I drove the chev Duramax for 5 years and then a Ford dually for 4 years, for my work delivering heavy parts to Boeing both constantly in and out of shop and always when you needed it the most. We got the ram 6 years ago, the dealer comes out 2 times a year to service and its never broke down. Also, when it snows we use to park the trucks because it was always in a ditch and now with the ram, we work on snow days.

I bought a new 1500 in 2018. I agree with you about the dents and tires. No lack of power for sure. 25k miles so far and ram replaced the rear bumper because of rust. Other then that zero issue

Man I want that trailer, mines solid wood car carrier that I slapped steel and wooden 4ft wallz on, I was attempting to slap on a couple hydraulic pumps on to lift mine but it was just too damn heavy to lift, so I have to assist it especially with a load of shingles or dirt or wood, but house hold waste it would lift all on its own. Lolz

the 2 people that disliked this must be Ford owners

Great content Stan. Saying hello from Southeast Ohio. Fairfield county!

ok had to go back to this. i got my first ram in 94 and used it like u do plow all winter and towed and towed the rest of the time and on weekends yanked a 26ft boat it was undercoated and no rust ? dont know how. but sold to my neighbor at 225,000 miles still running great. he still has it and plows his drive and halls wood with it .

Dodge gave me a horrible time in the past, "BRAND NEW" 8k miles and transmissions blew. 1 month later after replaced 2nd "NEW" transmission completely broke from the vehicle. 8 months after the 2nd new transmission, 11k miles engine blew. It was a standard get around town vehicle, and after the engine blew went to Ford and NEVER LOOKED BACK!

QQ: what is your opinion on GMC/Chevy trucks or have you never tested them?

I have a 2006 GMC 2500HD fully loaded, snow plow prep package, single rear wheel, extended cab, 6.0 gas engine... I have a Fisher extreme v stainless 8.6 that I have had since they first came out in like 2007-2008.. I installed Timbrens in the front and rear... I would run my truck and plow through the touchless car wash after every time I plowed.. I changed the engine oil every 5k, Mobile 1 fully synthetic, grease the front end, and change the fluid and filter every year on the plow... I have Never had to replace one thing on my plow ever.. Not even a hose.. I would spray the plow and hoses, ect with WD40 or Ballistol about once a month to prevent rust and it worked awesome.. I also have never had to replace anything on the steering or suspension on my truck except for the two front wheel bearings at around 90k miles... it has 166k miles on it currently and runs like a Swiss watch.. no rot, no rust, and over the years I’ve replaced the brakes twice, a radiator, a few brake lines because one leaked and I didn’t like the look of a couple other ones so I took preemptive action and did them at the same time... I also had to replace the battery twice, the alternator once, the starter once... that is the entire list of Everything I’ve ever had to replace since 2006 and 166k miles... I worked that truck everyday, and it is my daily driver... every winter I do a TON of plowing and go through about 2 cutting edges per season on average... I sub from someone who has a Huge account that included a couple ship yards and train station parking lots, so that gives you an idea of the amount of work I do just on plowing... I don’t abuse my stuff but I certainly do not baby it either... I do take good care and maintain my stuff though, and do all my own mechanical repairs, as well as take care of other equipment... my truck is certainly by no means the most rugged... in fact I’d say dodge is a more solid built truck, but has too many secondary parts failures... my point is, that if you take proper care of your stuff, and don’t crash into too many things, then there is no reason to have equipment troubles... the biggest problem I see, is that everyone uses a different piece of equipment instead of operating a dedicated assigned machine to them... people operate equipment differently and push the limits in different ways, which is not good for the longevity of the equipment... when you use the same equipment the same way all the time it is much less taxing on it, instead of stressing everything out all the time by having people who are not so familiar with some equipment, use it incorrectly and break stuff...

Big shoutout!!! Great vid👍
