- The Ram 1500 was 2019 North American Truck of the year. This Ram Laramie Sport is one of the more popular optioned 1500s. Under the hood is a 5.7L V8 w/ e-torque 395HP & mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission. The exterior of the truck has optional wheels and running boards. On the inside is where the Ram trucks continue to shine. All of the great finishes and tech blow everything out of the water. Is the 2020 Ram 1500 Laramie Sport the BEST truck to BUY?

Just bought one today and it's my first pick up truck ever after decades of cars. I did the homework and I was sold on that screen. I didn't realize how much more quality was inside the truck, I absolutely love this thing!
Thanks for letting me share this one with you!
1 month update ? Seriously considering getting this truck
@@GonzCerv My wife one-upped me and bought the Longhorn Edition @diego gonzalez Then my younger cousin shows up two weeks later with a Limited of his own ...LMAO!
@@mortgageminion8109hey since it’s been a few years how did it work out for each of you? I’m buying a Laramie Monday .
@@mortgageminion8109damn
Watching this 3 years later.. i wish they were still that price. This trim is about 10K more now, and that's without any dealer market adjustments.
I bought a 2021 that looks almost identical to this one.. love it.
Joe, I've had 3 beautiful F-150's and one Ram Laramie. Sir, NOTHING superseded my Laramie. Thank you for your excellent reviews!!
The Laramie trim is the best value for the money out of all the trims. It has extra features that competitors don't offer, has a very sharp design, and it's really versatile. Great review man!
Thanks for letting me share this one with you!
Yes, but with all that awesome truck. The sunroof would have been really nice
Yes best looking interior than boring nissan and boring toyota
Better than that trashy honda Ridgeline not sure why they even made trucks for Honda
Built to Serve edition
just made a great deal at a Ram limited today, after I've done a test drive as Raiti's Rides suggested me...and I have to agree with you...this truck is a dream when it comes to comfort, power , transmission adjustment, and the finish is a just outstanding...f150 it's good truck ..but this one it's just amazing...👍👍
My 2020 Laramie has these wheels which were a selling point for me because they looked really easy to keep clean. Smooth broad polished aluminum outer surfaces easy to sponge clean and gun metal grey inserts to hide brake dust between cleanings.
Never seen myself seen myself driving a pickup truck, HOWEVER this truck is beautiful the way they made it, that 12 inch display screen and the way to change gears with just a turn of the knob is awesome, and the way you can add more space to this vehicle by lifting up the back seats is something...
I am so glad that I can share it with you!
I have a 2019 Laramie Sport and I absolutely love it!!!!!!
First time seeing a Ram 1500 review here where you realized that the back seats can recline. Now that is what you call a luxury truck.
Very good point!
@@RaitisRides Indeed! ;)
But end of the day it's still a ram..
@Benjamin Profaizer it means, far ahead for interior way behind for reliably...
all your hypothetical storage situations always make me laugh. why on earth would someone carry 100 ping pong balls and 5 boxes of twinkies LMAO. keep them coming dude. great review as always.
Thanks man! I guess you just never know! LOL
@@RaitisRides
Exactly
He do wit dat don't he 😂😂
That's the road rage package😂🤣

Good review. Picked up a Blue Big Horn Built to Serve edition today. Liked the options with that model. So far the first 10 miles have been wonderful!
Love the look of this truck. Reminds me of the early 70's D100 pick up. Has that same look. Plus the headlights look like a Dodge Charger pick up. Love it. Only one thing wrong I wish FCA would call it what it is. A Dodge Ram!
Glad you reviewed this truck Joe thanks
I am so happy that you are happy! Thanks for having my back Eric!
I have a 2020 Laramie. I love the 8 speed automatic. It is a very smooth engine and I get about 18 MPG on everyday driving.
I am so glad that you like this one.
How’s it holding up?
@@Drod11z So far, so good. I like the truck more the longer I have it. I do NOT like putting gas in it, though.
@@RetiredTop43 what kind of mpgs are you getting
@@user-lu7do5yp3d About 18.5 everyday driving. Highway MPG is much better.
Love Ram . Can’t wait for you do review of the TRX Ram truck coming out in 2021 .
I own a 2020 ram 1500 with 11000 miles and it’s been great no problems I also have 35x12.5 on 20x12 on a 3.5 inch lift I had to trim the plastic but even with those big tires the ram makes me want to maintain good momentum especially going up the mountains love my truck.
Got the 5.7 V8 Laramie 6 months ago. It has everything a truck needs, plus luxury and comfort. Did I say rear coil springs? This truck is a smooth operator. The only issue so far is a little wind noise in the driver side front door seal which the dealer will fix under warranty. I get all kinds of compliments on it wherever I go. Mileage could be a bit better, (Avg mpg 15-16), but hey it's a big heavy truck with a powerful engine. I made some mods to it and added a K&N cold air intake, new Flowmaster exhaust, Ultra-Flex tri-fold tonneau cover, Westin HDX side steps and a Ready Lift 2 " leveling kit with a set of 34 inch Ridge Grappler tires. Sounds great and looks even better. It purrs down the road.
What a beast, great review like always 💪🏻
Thanks for saying that!
I love my 2020 RAM Laramie! I opted for the non-sport version because I like chrome bumpers and grille which don't get chipped! The ride is extremely smooth and there is no wind noise. I had test driven the Ford and GMC trucks but their old leaf spring rear suspensions are no match for the RAM'S superior coil springs.
Thanks for sharing that great input from your ownership.
dont they have air ride?
@@alejandrozuniga4426 - Air suspension is an extra cost option.
The pythagorean theorem haha love your reviews I wish I could fit s football in my console too lol keep up the great reviews!
Excellent video’s always
Best car reviewer on youtube. Keep it up Joe!
Thanks Mario! That really means the world!
I love this dude lol he makes it fun to watch car reviews
That really means so much! Thank you for letting me share the laughs and the trucks with you!
Great review!! I have the 2020 gmc sierra denali and I must say the interior and the 12” screen on the Ram is so much better lol. My truck looks outdated 👎 shame on GM especially at $71000
My very first pickup truck! Nice video Joe.
As a Ford guy this Ram might just be my next truck. In green it looks so sweet
Nice truck. Thank you for the review.
Great review. Powerful truck. That thing can sure tow a lot of boxes of Twinkies
Outstanding review.
Thanks Joe for the review. This is the trim I’m looking at. I’ll probably order a 2021 w/sunroof and ram box. Keep these truck reviews coming!
There is one born every minute....🤣
@midcentury modern - go back to bed.
Joe , you may not see this since it was 2 years ago to the date of this video ,but I just bought one of these and your review was a part of the decision. I love it. Black Laramie Sport is my first truck since 1998.
How’s it been to you? I drive for work a lot , currently trying to figure out which newer model truck is less likely to leave me stranded haha
@@skuuwop No issues with it
Be a gem and embrace the proper use of your direction light. Road safety is important in keeping yourself and other’s safe. 👍
Nice review and it comes at a good time- picking up a new 2020 Ram Big Horn crew cab 4x4 tomorrow. It's replacing my better half's tired '13 Honda CR-V ... never ever have seen her so excited about a new ride. Even at the Big Horn trim level (Level 2 equipment package w/ bucket seats) this interior is killer. The ride and interior noise level level is better than a lot of luxury cars I've been in. eTorque Hemi and 3.92's should pull a future travel trailer pretty well. Big, big purchase for us and we're both a little nervous about it but your review has gone a long way towards easing my mind about it ... think she's going to be really pleased with it over the long run. Only real problem now is getting it to fit in the garage- got to move a mountain of stuff somewhere else ... a CR-V and a 500 Abarth don't take up much space.
Keep up the good work!
Thanks John for letting me share this with. Congrats on your Big Horn that you are getting!
This truck got recalled last week! but nevertheless love the idea of the truck and it's interior! Great Review Raiti ❤️
For floormats
Love the tour of Tampa from the Ram perspective
Thanks for letting me show you around!
I'm pretty happy with my RAM truck. The interior is top notch.
Love the ipad n back up camera
I have this exact truck minus the running boards and it's fricking awesome.
That is awesome Drake. Thanks for sharing that input from your experience!
If you're getting a pickup just to have a reasonable luxury pickup, this is the one to get. Most comfortable ride, most bang for your buck (especially with FCA rebates).
With that I'll say: if you're towing FREQUENTLY and heavy in the 1500 class, get an F-150. They're towing and payload capability can't be beat. Yea the interior isn't the best and is dated even in the new 2021 and the Ford sync is pretty crap,.but it does a trucks work.
If you just want a truck just to sit high and have a reliable engine, get a Chevy. Worst interior of the Big 3. Worst infotainment of the big 3. But because the Chevy is so simple, it'll show you less electrical problems in the long run because it's lacking technology.
Daily driving, Ram will give you the smoothest ride, quietest ride... And the best interior in terms of quality and look.
Wow thankyou for this breakdown!!
Except the RAM is extremely unreliable
EZ how many people have really owned one longterm to know that for sure
@@EmperorWasHere no, they all have their issues. It comes down to personal preference. You can't go wrong with any big 3 truck.
EZ my parents have a 2010 ram 1500 and we don’t have any problems with it
Thee best truck review EVER!!!
Hey Joe! Where's "big guns"Magee?Thanks for the great reviews and congrats on the gt 350.
Why ain't THIS best-seller? F-150 ain't got enough. ain't got the personality, practicality, features, and on and on. THIS be Best in class
I have a 2020 with this rare green paint on it. Best vehicle I ever owned
Thank you for a through walk-through on one of my all-time favorite trucks I have been drooling over a Laramie for many years. The only problem is we will be moving to the country soon and I'm not sure I want to haul wood etc. on such a beauty. Dilemmas, dilemmas.
Angel from The Bay 2024
Get my 2020 Lamarie in 11 months for my birthday can't wait!
I love all the trucks that you sure one your channel I would love to see you do the learning night edition
Hey Joe, great job, what color is this truck, I like the paint job.
How's your night Joe? MOPAR LET'S GO!!! RAM!!!
Going great brother! Double feature night!
@@RaitisRides ;D
Just bought my first RAM 1500, Built To Serve edition. Love it!
LOL! Give it another 4 months. You will see! 🤣
Just wanted to add one thing I think all reviewers miss. The cup holders at the back of the center console also double as a tablet holder for the backseat passengers.
I own a fully loaded Laramie crew cab with the off road group and 33k miles. It’s been through some tough stuff and not one problem. I average 19mpg after I had the undercarriage covered to protect it from rust. Prior to that I averaged 20-22mpg with the 5.7 Hemi and all terrains. Mine had the appearance package as well
I’m confused, you lost 3 mpg just from having the undercarriage sprayed ?
@@evz1244 yes because of the weight being significant
Great job guys 😎🇺🇸🙏
Thanks for saying that!
I have one and love it!!!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts from your experience!
In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides“. It’s been awhile. I had to look it up. 🤓 Not a big truck fan but a Ram 🐏 truck would be my choice if for some strange reason I decided to purchase one. Excellent review as usual. 👍
I’m like 3 months away from getting this Laramie. Getting the air suspension and night package. I cannot wait. New F-150 looks really good but hands down this is my next vehicle
Don’t get the F150 unless you like cheap plastic everywhere even on the top trim lmfao
Things are getting good for sure!
@@samsaid9170 There are some changes for 2021.
Go for it I got the 2020 Laramie night edition and Everywhere I go I get major compliments from even car washes where they see cars all day ..
The best car review 👌
You are so awesome! Thanks Daniel!
JOE that back seat looks very comfortable for a nap!
LOL Perfect!
Hey Joe, can you do a review on a ram HD diesel? Thanks!
By far, best looking truck exterior and interior. Elephant in the room is quality of build and reliability. Let’s see how this holds up 5yrs down the road. Suspect until then IMO, especially for $65k
Best looking trim level in the Ram line-up IMO especially in the Delmonico Red.
AGREED
Delmonico Red is what I have. Wanted black until my wife said look at that red truck.
@@ufoguyspaceman6137 Know the feeling my Friend, I knowww the feeling....
Man, I'm trading in my f150 these trucks are beautiful and massive, it doesn't look skimpy like the f150.... I'm sold.
Love your references to food the wife and I call you the twinkie guy keep it up
This guy is awesome.
Thanks for saying that! I appreciate your support!
I always wanted a truck.
Someday, maybe.
I’m all for a pickup truck that thinks about my love for Skittles!!
The best part of the screen is that the image goes all the way to the edge of the screen. Volvo's do this too, but soooooo many others do not and it's very disappointing. (Looking at you MB - "best or nothing" my ass with your one inch borders!) In this day and age, every screen should be more like this one.
This is so very true!
Excelente camioneta 😊👌muy buena
Gracias!
I bought a 2020 Ram 1500 new crewcab 5.7 no etorque 4x4 delmonaco red pearl paint with the beige and brown interior. duel pan. sunroof 12inch touchscreen $58kmsrp got it for $47.5k in April 4th 2020 killer price great truck.
Before or after taxes?
i got one . love it
As far as price, there are 4 major RAM dealers in my area so the pricing is competitive. I got about $10,000 off msrp without trying too hard. Love my 2020 1500! Highly recommended!
Cap
I love that this truck will keep the paint from rubbing off my skittles!! Hilarious😆
I love this video
I was about to get a new F150 and you just messed my mind up...great review and awesome truck
Sorry but definitely take one of these for a spin.
@@RaitisRides definitely I will..thank you Sir
@@Marc-NZ I bought my first truck (Ram 1500 Laramie) 4 years ago and it is the best vehicle I've ever owned! I literally have driven the truck from coast to coast a couple of times.

i like it nice truck ciao big for you joe
Nice freaking truck!
I am so glad that you like this one Lawrence!
With a Ford Taurus SHO and (the wife's) Explorer Sport in the garage currently, we're leaning (preferably V8) Raptor. No, no thanks TRX.
But, being a sucker for V8s, I've had my eyes on those Dodge Ram 1500s for a while now. And a sport-packaged Laramie might be the perfect alternative.
So, as always, we present and future subscribers thank you for sharing. And as with the SHO and the Explorer Sport, (at minimum) a quick installation of some lowering springs will make it perfect for our driveway.
(Okay, a performance exhaust might be needed too....maybe. My straight-piped SHO sounds better.)
Thank you, Joe ... and shout out to Mrs. Raiti for cutting the Mr. loose to make these videos for us. Or is she holding a camera? Ahhhh! I see how you do it.
Whatever. We love y'all ... keep up the good work.
I'm out✌🏼.
Thanks Mitch! I really appreciate you taking the time for the awesome comment! The next gen Raptor is suppose to be V8. We will see how it turns out!
If you get this truck only use 93 gas .. it feels better driving than 87
U R killing it with the snack hide away 🙃😀😊
Only half ton I would spend that much money on right off the lot...you can’t beat those tech options!
Thanks for letting me share this one with you.
Raiti's Rides oh no! Thank you 🙏🏾! Your content is bar none!!
Now that’s a Truck! 💪🏼🦾
I am so glad that you are digging this one.
it is
Awesome video... what watch do you wear, looks very nice...
Thanks Rodney. It is an Invicta.
Which is better of this two interior packages, the piano black or the gloss black?
Quality truck I like it ❤️
Looking to get a truck for my next vehicle so I can travel and God willing I'll get it, I'm just debating if I should get a Jeep or a pickup truck for that heavy duty travel, one where the wear and tear isn't immediate and transmission sucks
Awesome I love this channel 😍🤩😍😍😍☺️❣️😍😍💗💓❤️💗
I really appreciate that fantastic support!
Love the design of the exhaust on this Ram, one of the few trucks that have an exhaust sticking out all the way to the back end.
Ram has definitely been my top pickup for a while now. I think, if you get the right trim, options and color, it is the best all around truck there is. F150 is close second for me. If you wait till the end of a model year to get a new one you can always get huge discounts on them.
My biggest Zonk on them is the stupid rotary dial for gear selector, I hate them so much.
Very good points Travis!
That is a cool truck!!!!!!
I am so glad that you like this one Dylan!
could you review a Ram Classic Warlock?
2020 Ram 1500 Night Edition Black 5.7
I need to track one of those down!
When buying a Ram 1500 Sport Package you can delete the hood with the fake vents. Unfortunately this can't be done when ordering the night edition.
Great truck, great review.. would like to see cargo area/detailed bed in future reviews but nice truck nice review Joe
Thanks for the feedback! I am so glad that you liked this one.
I think some gunmetal fender flares would look best on this truck. The painted fenders look very plain, which doesn't agree with the aggressive hood.
Forward of the Firewall, there's too much design flows going on and fake everything. After that, clean body lines and tailgate, are spot on.
Interior, seats could use more bolstering, IMO. Dash layout, infotainment system, and the business side, is definite selling point for me! Well Done.
Did your tester have paddle shifters? Also was it a 4 , or AWD, drivetrain.
Living with in metro Detroit, I unfortunately see more of these on haulers, from the factory, than I do on the road, over Ford, and GM(C) trucks, on a daily basis.
Overall, it would be something, for me, to consider. However, that front end, not so much the grill, needs to be better thought out, when it comes to functionality.
In contrast, the rise in the hood, is useless, once you raise the hood, and one sees how low that engine sits. That, "gap" should be filled with some form of storage space for keeping the White Castles, or Coney Dogs, "Warm"!
Great review 👍, Joe! 🏁🏁
I was checking out Silverado, Tundra, RAM, and F-150. Is coming down between RAM and F-150.
I wish there was an suv based on this platform
Durango
How good does it block out the outside noise while on the road.
I’m definitely missing an E-Twerk system in my ride. RAM might’ve just sold me! Ha
Very cool!
Raiti's Rides but seriously gr8 review as always. I just don’t have enough money for all the cars I want, but we all can experience a bit of em one badass review atta time. Have a great weekend Joe!
"You have a football?" 😂😂
LOL! Thanks for letting me share some laughs with you!
I have a question, for the 2020 and 2019 Laramie 1500 is the rear sliding window automatic?
For what you get the Dodge Trucks are the best priced trucks out of all of them from what I have found.
