RAM 1500 In DEEP SNOW (2 Feet) I Got STUCK.. | 4WD Lock To The Rescue

- My RAM 1500 got buried with 2 feet of snow in a big snowstorm last night. I ended up getting stuck but the 4x4 Lock system came to the rescue pulled me out like a dream.
I've made some pretty critical videos about my RAM 1500's 4WD system and today it showed how capable it can still be in deep snow. Like I just mentioned last night we got a big snow storm and I was hoping to get this truck a little stuck and film me shoveling out my truck because I thought it would make for some good funny content. However, the RAM told me to shove it and as hard as I tried to get it stuck it kept moving and pulled me out of the deep snow.
I did get a little artistic with some acoustic beats in the middle of video hoping showing how awesome it is up here in the winter. looks like a winter wonderland and there was some cool pieces of machinery out and about clearing snow off the roads. also saw some pretty buried cars lol
I love messing around in the snow and its a really good way to see how capable a vehicle can be. Anyways, I hope you guys like the video!

I understand that WhistlinDiesel got his Snowcat stuck. But that man is half psycho half vehicle executioner.
I love you too

Momentum..gotta look 👀 ahead.. but even when you lost your momentum, it was still able to get up enough to bust out then carry through..👍 Sweet ...!!
haha yes I was worried once the truck stopped I was stuck but it kept digging in and found a way to keep pulling through
I have always said of 4 wheeling...momentum can be your best friend OR worst enemy!
@@bjack8645 lol..😄 rite...
In '05 I was in the market for a new pickup. In February in Northern BC I test drove a new 1500 Dodge and new Toyota Tundra, both extended cabs one after the other along an identical course involving bare roads, deep snow, steep grades up and down in deep snow and on plowed but snow packed inclines all done in 2x4 then 4x4. The Dodge was so inferior in performance as compared to the Tundra as to be shocking. Eventually I improved the truck with a dif gear set change from 3.92 to 4.88s which vastly improved towing and somewhat improved milage. While doing the gears I had a Torsen true mechanical limited slip installed in the rear. Truck is amazing in snow and off road situations. I would not trade it for any new generation truck. 🇨🇦
Alex, just wanted to let you know that I love your videos! I just picked up my 2014 Ram 1500 BigHorn :) I love it so far.
awesome man! my truck takes a good amount of abuse and I have had next to zero issues. 100,000km on it so far
@@TheGettyAdventures nice man!! I love watching your videos man!! Your content is awesome!!
I like how raw and genuine your videos are. That and beautiful Canadian backgrounds.
Thank you! I mean as I get better equipment and get better at making videos I'm hoping to to have a little less Raw lol but I try to keep these videos nice and real. and yes it is beautiful up here in the winter
Powerful beast!
Sometimes Yes 😁
When I had an open diff I used to put the emergency brake on 2-3 clicks to put equal pressure on both wheels, not sure about the new stuff lol I have a 2020 warlock now and it's a beast!
ya open differentials suck. happy the newer fifth gen Ram's actually have a factory locker option. and ya those warlocks I believe come standard with a LSD. which makes a huge difference
The first 2 minutes is just packed full of innuendos
Maybe lol maybe not!
@@TheGettyAdventures right at 2:10 is when it starts😂
I don't know if any production 4wd that 100% anti stuck, your truck did Good!
RAM built to serve! 👍
I have to say I was pretty Impressed with the old RAM. she did good lol
I bought my wife a 2019 Ram classic and so far everything is good 👍 no complaints.
@@r.o.9356 happy to hear man. I have 75k on this unit and nothing to complain about!
I like this guy😂
lol thank you
If that dodge is anything like me it won't pull out😆
hahaha ohh baby
Can you build a snowman and run through it for your next video?
maybe put them all in a line and see how far I get ? I could be into Mike
Good ole 3 wheel drive
Technically 2 wheel drive with both my open differentials lol
When I purchased my Ram classic 4x4, I made sure I had a limited slip rear end. This video is encouraging to know the Ram does well in deep snow, but the Ram is also made by the same company that builds Jeep, one of the best 4x4 set ups or if not the best on a vehicle.
great option with the limited slip rear end. It was the one thing I sacrificed with my truck and I regret it lol. One thing to consider with these trucks is also what transfer case you have. there is some pretty noticeable off-road performance between the two.
And Fiat
Friends don't let friends drive dodges
I have a ram dodge am I stuck in 2 feet of snow lol my tires just keep spinning
What tires are you using Bud?? Great content and greetings from Québec!
finally u root for the ram, usually seems like if u want it to fail!
I know, I really do like my truck. but I feel like the mechanic in me wants to share the negatives so other folks are aware of the "short comings". I'm in talks with a a few dealers and hopefully I can get some cool trucks like the rebel and talk about the great off road capabilities! If I had a chev I'd probably talk about the issues as well.
@@TheGettyAdventures appreciate your videos they are great quality and super informative. Love the pros and cons u put out there, Got a sub from me👍! keep them vids rolling.
that would have socked!
Always air the tires down when in snow
I know this is a yr late , but don't spin your tire's that fast and put in 4low and work your steering wheel back and forth as you go forward ...
Happy New Year !!
You too!
i love the video and dodge' truck i got my drivers licence in a 1958 dodge power wagon
Snow brush????? Lol.
lol I have one somewhere. a nice credit card did the trick
Good video. Did you have Traction control off in the second part of the video 7:26 and on? I have an open diff on mine, but BW 44-45 TC, wonder how it would do in the similar situation. Thx.
Thank you, Traction control was off the whole time. What is important on these trucks with the bw44-44 is to make the Electronic stability control is also off. it will make a big difference off-road. I have open diffs as well which kind of sucks but as you saw the truck can still make its way through some decent snow lol
I got stuck in snow about as deep as this. I didn’t know about the ESC thing. I was unable to get out and had to dig it out. Wish I knew about the ESC that time. I probably could have gotten out.
No heated mirrors? all of these trucks dont matter what make have that air dam up front be nice it they could make it retract,
I do have heated mirrors it just takes a sec for all the ice to melt so I just scrapped them off a little lol
@@TheGettyAdventures whoops! My bad.
No snow brush in the truck and where are your gloves?
I got the BF Goodrich tires. They have been good also.
I believe they are Goodyear DuraTrac tires but all the same I mix those brands up all the time lol
@@TheGettyAdventures My BF Goodrich All terrain ko2 are really good. I had the Goodyear duratrac before and they we good. There both great stone chuckers!!! But have great traction. 😄😄
@@ramrider1453 I used to plow snow with the Ko2's and I have no complaints they were great. Both tires in my opinion are great in the snow. But I like the look of the Duratracs better. and that's kind of what it came down to for me.
Looks like you need to air down and put some weight in the back, night and day difference.
Does your truck make a whining noise when the rpms go up while in 4x4 and also when you engage back to 2wd?
It does not. I might want to get that checked out. could be the 4x4 actuator starting to fail
@@TheGettyAdventures hmm ok thanks, truck is a 2019 ram 1500 with 67000km on it, been going on for a while though. Ill have to get it looked at , thanks.man
What tires?
Wrangler Duratracs, Pretty highly rated in the snow. always seem to have a good bite in the winter
@@TheGettyAdventures I own a ram does pretty good in the snow were I am. It's nothing to see 3,4,5, even 6 feet of snow here in ny tughill. I have seen snow cats get stuck also.
@@dudleydorite7678 You guys get that lake effect snow. Must be pretty wild getting huge dumps of snow like that.
I dont think you understand how 4wd truck works, the 4x4 kn this truck is the same as all gms and fords with regular 4x4 with low gears , they have been the same forever. The only ones that are different are the ones that you can have rear lockers and some front lockers but you have a standard 4x4 truck they have been the same forever its not shitty because its a dodge you would have a ford or gm it would performe the same, the option to "lock" the 4x4 means locking the center diff 50/50 front to back thats all it means, the ram rebel come with the rear locker and also some have it as an option on other trims wich is a selectable diff lock button
I'm pretty certain I know exactly how the 4WD works on these trucks. what if I told you that my truck transfers power to the front driveshaft via a wet clutch pack. what if I told you that not a single RAM 1500 on the road today has a "center" differential. what if I told you the 4th gen RAM Rebel comes with a Limited Slip rear Differential not a locker.
@@TheGettyAdventures im sorry but the rebel come's with a electronic rear locking differential and so do other models as optional tech like the ram warlock which is what i have and the 4x4 is the same as my older toyota tacoma i had works exactly the same if you dont have the one with 4auto
@@TheGettyAdventures also by center diff forgive me i am french so i used the wrong word i meant transfer case, all 4lock does is it locks the transfer case so front wheels and back wheels have equal power but its still an open diff setup like any other basic 4x4 truck it works exactly the same unless you have the 4auto model
@@BeStrong-nf5nc what year is your truck? The new model truck have an e-locker option. but all 4th gen rams (2009-2019) didn't have a factory locker option. at least in North America. the warlock comes with an anti-spin rear end. also if you don't have the 4WD AUTO option then you have the better bw44-45 transfercase which does have a true 50/50 mechanical split.
@@TheGettyAdventures its a 2019 ram 1500 warlock with a rear electrical locker cost 375$ at dealership as option
What tires are you running?
Wrangler Duratracs. Supposed to be highly rated for snow and ice. and they seem to live up to their claim. A lot of guys up hear in Canada run them because of their winter rating
I went through snow like that then my wheels got so packed full of snow that it turned on brake and abs lights in the dash
Jesus lol didnt have that issue thankfully. Must have been some wet heavy stuff
@@TheGettyAdventures the lights went off after the snow was melted
Look at my box... it’s full
Get your mind out of the gutter sir! 🤣
Were you using chains in the 8 minute mark?
nope no chains at all
Enjoy your videos brotha.just got my truck,just waiting for day off,Do some off roading
What exhaust details? Mind me asking? Thanks 😊
Honestly that's 100% stock. I don't know why my mic picked it up like that. but it does sound pretty good.
@@TheGettyAdventures stock? Sounds really good tbh
@@AzuraiAeon Ya it sounds really good. Didn't sound that good in person. the mic seemed to just pick up the audio in a really nice way lol
Why not 4wd low?
Probably honestly should of been in 4 low. That being said, usually when I'm really pinned up or truly worried about being stuck I'll be in 4low.
All that weight from the snow helped your traction I think 🤔
probably!
That is not foot and half... lol. Rams garbage... lol 😆
