I Had a 2016 Sport Loaded, at 130km I traded for a 2020 Pacifica Launch Edition AWD. Had that for a few years and recently (March) traded for a 2017 Sport again loaded. I realize every vehicle has its pros and cons but I can’t seem to get away with from this 4th gen Ram. My Ram Sports that I’ve owned both came with Sun Roofs and full leather, heated and ventilated seats. The 2017 has the bumper sensors and auto dimming high beams that the ‘16 didn’t have. This is one awesome truck! I’m retired now and will drive this truck into the crave, so to speak.
I bought a 2016 in may been starting a build on it almost done looking pretty sharp and tough I love this truck
I just picked up the 2020 Ram 1500 Classic SLT with 67k miles on it and I must say it's an amazing comfortable truck, coming from the bmw X5 it's definitely an upgrade!
Yes. These are great trucks. We have a 2012 and still love it.
I bought my 2016 ram 1500 sport last year at 94k miles and I still love it. I installed a Carven progressive muffler and love the sound! The only repair I needed to make was getting a new battery.
I also put an upgraded rear sway bar to minimize body roll and running boards so far. In the spring, I plan on getting an S&B cold air intake and oil catch can
If I had to do work on my ram, I’d probably go with headers, tune, and rear trailing arms. We get so much wheel hop.
It does wheel hop too
Apart from eating wheel bearings I love my 2016 ram hemi sport 😊
Love my 14 Ram.
Great video, thx you 👍 I have ram 2013 sport, this is amazing, car cool and very fast!
I’ve got the 2016 gunmetal grey crewcab Hemi 1500, and has been the best vehicle I’ve owned….Well the stock 1950 Chevy Pickup 3100 w/ a 235 straight 6 w/ natural patina was the best but u get my drift
I love your videos dude
I sold my F250 with 200k and bought an 18 big horn. I totally love the truck. It pulls my car trailer just as good as the 250 did. It also pulls my 32ft camper just fine. The ram is all stock other than 10ply tires and airbags in the rear springs. I love the thing.
It’s a great truck. Turning radius is much better on the ram too in comparison to the f250s
I’ve been researching the 4th gen specifically the 2014 you and your commenters have won me over to the Ram
Just bought a 14. Love it.
I bought my 2017 Ram 1500 Limited 3 months ago with 38K miles، and yeah! It's worth 100%
I have a 2017 limited I bought in May that had 56k miles on it. I've put on 4k miles and it's been an absolute joy. I like the styling more than the 5th gen.
Absolutely! The 4th gen has such a classic look. And with the 8 speed, it’s hard to beat the value.
@@Saldalaperformance agreed, I have the ZF 8 and it's definitely great
The 5th gen with chrome look awful but sport/night editions look great
Cope
Facts bro I’ve owned 2, fourth gen rams my first ram was a brand new 2015 limited 1500 hemi black on chrome. I absolutely loved it soo much that when I got wrecked in a car accident I bought the exact truck but an 18 model year and now I’m considering buying the new limited but the new 5th gens have a lot of build issues!
21 warlock ccsb lifted hemi and I love it worth every dollar I paid for it . Had a 2014 sport before it stock ccsb and love that hated selling it . Best 2 trucks I've ever bought ford motors let me down and chevy trans let me down dodge or ram has never left me down ever . Just my 2 cents . Each make has there own issues on that note that's where I leave it .
For sure. Every brand has its flaws. But in the truck market, you can’t go wrong with the ram.
Most fun pickup out there
Yep (2012 Express)
im a chevy guy, but these are growing on me
Be like me, drive both.
Just got a 2017 Ram bighorn! 75000! Love it 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽2023! Worth it 💯strong truck! 4th gen looks more strong in my opinion!
Yeah I definitely like the look of the 4th gen more than the 5th.
@@Saldalaperformance 💯
I plan on getting a Dodge 1500 one day
I think that it's the RT model that's gets the 0-60 time. The crew cab is closer to 6.4 secs. At 5.6 seconds that'd make it quicker than the ecoboost f150 and it's not as fast as those in the quad cab
You’re probably right about the RT. But the crew cab without the 3.92 lsd i think is 6.4 sec. With the 3.92 rear ended you’re definetly closer to the 6 second mark.
❤❤
I got that single cab. 👍😎
I added a Carven competitor exhaust to mine, and it sounds amazing
This is my daily, so I don’t know if I will do anything to this truck apart from the tips and the drop in k&n filter.
@@Saldalaperformance you got a link to the drop in filter? i wanna do one but dont know what one
@@Brennanwarren12 Go with a ‘Green’ filter or a ‘k&n’. The restrictions on these trucks are in the exhaust. Our trucks have a crushed section of exhaust and the cats that restrict quite a bit.
Great video! I’m looking at a 2015 1500 hemi 5.7 80 miles . Their asking 20k is that too high? Thank you in advance
I think that’s a fair price. But beware with the high idle time. In the cluster of the truck, you should be able to cycle through the instrument panel and see the engine hours. Try and buy a truck with lower idle hours as high idle 5.7 hemi engines are known to have failures.
Only RAM Worth owning is the 5.7 HEMI 8 speed with 3.92 final drive ratio with LSD (4x4 is a must and much prefer a locker or a torsen work gear diff) dual exhaust, tow package, and the quad cab with 6 foot bed is my favorite of the fourth generation. Mines an express 2wd quad cab 5.7, dual exhaust, 3.92 LSD, six speed, tow package minus TBC, bought from my baby brother.
That's exactly how mine is specd. People always ask me that mine looks abit different. I guess the 6 foot bed makes it look almost like a 3500
@@alwaysdriven it ain't a true 3500 without them duallies or a mega cab😁 and a Cummins 😄
@brandedmcgowan9414 ofcourse not, my little 1500 can only wish it was. I never pose lol
@@alwaysdriven 😁at least It'll give it a run for the 💰, but I'ma need some of it (💰) to refill that HEMI when I run out while that Cummins getting further away 😄. Damn petrol fuel
@brandedmcgowan9414 oh man! Thank God I gotta 2.0 4cyl for daily commute. I can't gun down the truck every day with these fuel prices. Those days of daily driving v8 are kinda gone.
I bought a 13 slt back in the day eith the 3.6 vvt, and it was a lemon. Swore Id never buy another Dodge, but I just bought a '14 sport, and its such a great truck man, holy smokes. I've got a '22 F250 Lariat, and honestly I prefer driving the Ram now 😂
Right on!
Got a 2015 and think the design looks much more aggressive and stylish than the 5th gen
Agreed. I’m 103k miles in and have loved and appreciated every moment with this truck.
I wonder does the sport trim come in quad cab six foot bed other than the crew cab?
Yes sport can be found in crew and quad cab.
@@Saldalaperformance 👍 like those better than the big horn, Laramie, limited, longhorn, and rebel because of decent pricing, equipped loaded options included and no chrome except on the grille trim. 4x4 quad cab for me (enjoying my 2012 express 4x2 6 speed 5.7 3.92 with LSD)
Im getting the 2017 tomorow 85k miles
Congrats we just got a 2017 sport with 77k, omg rocket
Can it pull a 7 by 14 dumptrailer 3ft tall just like dry leaves or light junk?
The towing capacity with this exact truck is about 11,000 lbs. where we lack is in payload capacity.
Thank you
I'm getting a 2010 1500 sport with hood intakes and clean interior/exterior 5.7 hemi and 90k miles for about 11k usd is it worth it ?
I couldn’t tell you if that was worth it or not. But I will say, under 100k miles is great and the engine in that truck is the same 3rd gen Hemi 5.7 we have in the modern rams. With some minor exceptions but it’s a solid truck for sure.
Storage under the seats usually used for subwoofers mine are filled with junk 😂
Mine keeps getting filled with water. Probably from the 3rd brake light or antenna. Idk 🤷🏽♂️
I just bought a 15 sport with 105,xxx km.
Only thing it doesn't have is NAV, backup sensors and air ride. Truck is in good shape and I got it for a good price. Hopefully no Hemi tick starts. Lol
That hemi tick is usually the manifold gaskets. The studs break from the heat cycles and causes the gaskets to not seal 100%. When the truck warms up, the sound will subside as the gasket expands.
As for the cam and lifter issues, just do frequent oil changes and don’t sit at idle for long periods of time.
@@Saldalaperformance trust me I know all about the ticks. After I got mine my buddy killed his can and lifters in his.
Put a catch can and change oil every 3k miles. That’s your best bet i think. And avoid excessively long idling
@@ALEXdaG Catch cans would do nothing for these motors, they work more so on the 16 and older EcoBoosts.
@@UvidCo catch can is always beneficial for gdi. I’m not saying it will avoid hemi tick.
think i’m gonna trade my challenger sxt for this, my challenger is brand new and i lost power steering and my breaks while driving 😐 i love these things so much
For an overall point A to B vehicle, it’s hard to beat a 1500 Ram. It’s also quicker than that challenger v6 you got.
I just sold my 2013 Ram sport and got a challenger rt I miss my truck lol
@@rustyshackelford5892 well going from a 13’ to a late 14’ or newer is a different truck. The 8 speed made a massive difference in these trucks.
I’ve had a 2016 challenger rt manual for a full year now. Corsa exhaust. Gorgeous car but can’t stop thinking about just getting the same engine in a truck instead. Decisions decisions
@@ALEXdaG can’t beat the practicality of a truck.
Coolers? In the backseat? Yes…
I use them for storage but yes. 😂
I have a 18 with headers and a tune runs a 13.4 in the 1/4 with stock tires lol
Yeah the 8 speed made a world of a difference. So does the tune. Trucks are quick out the box
I have a 2017 dodge ram 1500 sport with only 80k miles on it, when bought it was like new. What an overpriced piece of crap, only 80k miles the starter went, a wheel bearing, shocks and spings are junk and it was never even used for heavy loads, the 4×4 clicks like gears grinding and the exhaust fell off. Notsure if all dodge parts are this crappy or if it's just the Canadian sport models but I will never buy a dodge again, it's a 1/2ton yet struggles with a 1/4ton load.
I miss back in the day when things were made of higher quality. Everything today is made cheap to keep us poor and to make the rich richer. Should be laws against this but we all know the corporations own our politicians.
Long ago you could get 250k out of a new vehicle before it started needing part today your lucky if you get out of the dealership parking lot before something breaks.
They may do this to mess up our lives but in the end rest assured these corporations that do this will be judged and pay dearly for their deceptive shady ways.
I bought it thinking this will be a trustworthy vehicle that will get me to work for a longtime before needing any work done on it, boy was I wrong, now stuck with a high payment for a truck that costs as much as my house with 10acres that already needs thousands of dollars put into it when again it only has 90k miles and was used nicely, can't imagine someone trying to use this garbage for a work truck, it'd be in the scrap heap before the loan was even paid off.
My Christmas gift from dodge a truck that breaks down like cheap China made furniture.
Wow that sucks that you had an experience like that. I drive my truck hard and haul for my concrete restoration job from time to time and it’s been solid so far. In fact I owe it some tlc.
I hope you find success in your next truck.
is it worth it in 2023 wtf hahahaha its a 2015 with alot of modern features
I’m honestly looking at other trucks right now, and my ram is years ahead of it’s time, interior wise.
Lol
What’s so funny?
@@Saldalaperformance you are so funny
