I switched to Dodge/Ram in 2005 from Chevrolet. I'm on my third truck, a 21' 1500. Not once in 19 years have I ever had a single issue with any of them. Basic maintenance, and that's it. They've been rock solid.
Ram on top, Toyota on the bottom ... we are in the upside down world
Toyota has been overrated for years.
I'm on my 3 no problems
Having owned Ram, Ford, Chrysler, Honda, Jeep, GM, Chevy, Pontiac, Oldsmobile and Toyota, Toyota has been the most reliable.
@@scott8238Toyota hasn’t been overrated. The old Tundras, current 4Runner, and old Tacomas earned their reputations. Their current models are garbage, but you’re living in the land of make believe if you think their older models were as unreliable as anything domestic.
@@Cortezuma the last Gen C channel frames are rust buckets you can't even buy a Toyota truck near salt they fall apart.
as a 2022 Ram 1500 owner this does not surprise me at all. My truck has been rock solid since day 1.
2 years doesn’t do justice
Wait 10 years or 150k miles then we’ll see
RAM 1500 Crew Cab 2017 model with 163,000 miles and nothing but great performance and reliability. On my 4th set of tires, with regular oil changes and service and everything works.
No any front end work yet? I did wheel bearings and control arms that's it. 2016 1500 3.92 sport crew cab.
This is really more a reflection of platform maturity (Ram, Titan). Which makes sense. Never buy first year models, and older models tend to have the most kinks worked out.
Factoring infotainment as part of reliability is unfair to manufacturers, as it inherently penalizes newer models. The newer the model, the more likely it is to have more functions integrated into the infotainment. As well as more screens, touch controls, and other electronics to break.
Well for all the guys saying Consumer Reports doesn’t know anything when they would pick Tundras top in the past and now they’re considered least reliable and rates the domestics more reliable. I wonder if they’ll now give Consumer Reports some credit now?
This is a ford guy 😂
Well it sucks to admit you bought something crappy when you’ve spent $50K+
I’ve always bought domestic truck and never have any issues. Will never buy a Toyota truck!
My 2020 Ram 1500 rebel has been absolutely perfect for 80k miles. My 2016 that I had before it was the same for the 130k miles that I had it
My 19 was great until my ac crapped out but I'll take that over engine or transmission issues
At about 80k miles too
2015 Ram with 5.7. Other than a couple of flashes when truck was new, zero issues. I had to have the battery replaced at 8 years old. That is it. No hemi tic, no issues. transmission 8HP70 made by ZF is probably the best auto I have ever used, and I am in my 60's. Considered buying new last year, put it off. I just may hold on to it.
Toyota broke the cardinal rule, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".
Looks like RAM is about to follow the same path. I drove a new Hurricane I6 and its a beautiful engine but everyone seems to have serious growing pains when they switch to twin turbo 6 cyl engines. The hurricane has been around in Jeep Wagoneer for couple years but that's such a low production vehicle its hard to judge reliability. Toyota went right from a reliable (yet gas guzzling) V8 directly to the new twin turbo V6 and are having HUGE issues. Ford at least retained their V8 option when they brought in the ecoboost. Now RAM is also going directly to the I6 and no V8 option for 2025. I get that they are after lower emissions but these turbo engines don't get any better MPG unless you absolutely baby them and if you don't they get worse MPG then most V8 trucks. These new engines cost more are more complicated and more expensive to fix and do not get better MPG. Aside from towing at altitude I don't see an advantage to the turbos.
I am really curious what the Tundra sales will look like at the end of the month. If the numbers are still high, buyers either don’t know about the recall and reliability, or just don’t care.
Or more likely CR is wrong. They have a very checkered history.
@@user-tb7rn1il3q Maybe, but I think they are right about this Tundra. There have been several recalls and lots of general quality issues.
@@PlayWaves1 That’s the problem. They get their data from owners. The data is garbage. It’s not a scientific study. BMW and RAM are highly rated by them. What a joke. The Tundra and Silverado are the most reliable trucks by far. The Titan and RAM are trash.
@user-tb7rn1il3q CR takes data from thousands of actual owners it's the best reliability reference there is for the North American market. But the reliability problems with the new Tundra engine are well known at this point.
@@user-tb7rn1il3qCR was historically pro Toyota for decades. Things really aren't biz as usual with Toyota these days.
I have a 2019 Bighorn Midnight. It’s been wonderful and so many features in this truck. I’m loving it more every day!
With the Chevy small block, I thought just swap the cam and lifters, get a tune to knock out AFM, and then gold.
Just bought the 24 Titan. I've owned all of them except the Tundra. Just got out of a 13 F150 ecobitch. That turbo v6 was the main reason i didn't go toyota, along with that overbloated pricetag. The new tundras have turbo 6s. NEVER AGAIN! Dodge and Chevy have screwed me too.
The Titan is the only naturally aspirated V8 left that doesnt have shutdown bullshit. Add the 5yr 100k mile bumper to bumper and the much lower cost WITH 0% financing, it was a no-brainer!
I love this truck.
I have an 07 F-150 King Ranch with the 5.4 3v with 84,000 miles. It’s paid for….. so far no issues with the engine. Even if the motor dies… it can be replaced with a new transmission for about $10,000.
So… I’ve followed consumer reports and JD powers for at least 30 years probably closer to 40. I don’t really see their reviews or their reliability surveys to be in line with my or my friends and families actual experiences.
Couldn’t agree with you more. I have always (over the past 20-30 yrs) had the opposite experience from what CR has reported. Also, have a 2014 Expedition with the 5.4l 3v with 113,000 miles on it. Fantastic engine. My mechanic says I easily have another 200,000 miles left on it.
I’d guess that you both change your oil much more often than owners who have had problems. I think a lot of the problems with that motor and many others is that following the new reccomended extended OCI causes sludge.
I hope 07 is paid for….
@@JK-qe6qq😂
So if the engine dies you're going to replace it with a new transmission 😂
I searched online for a brand that did not get criticism, couldn't find one. Also searched for one that has not had an issue, couldn't find one. Even going back 6 decades to when vehicles were "simple."
Just glad they aren't hurting people with airbags, exploding on impact or bursting into flames in the garage...for the most part.
I am on my second Ram since 2009. Zero issues. All my friends have issues with their fords and Chevys
Same. 2017 Laramie and now 2021 Laramie. 80,000 miles on the first one and now 126,000 on the 21 and still going strong
You got lucky! All brands have issues!
2017 Lone Star Hemi 4x4 with 80k miles now, lots of towing. Super impressed and not afraid to buy another when the new I6 is proven. I shouldn’t say no issues, but definitely no mechanical issues. Only thing we’ve had was a squeaky door hinge and a water leak on the back sliding window. It’s still a beautiful truck that’s held up great!
350k on F150 Ecoboost and still going strong with zero issues. Had a 2003 Ram 2500 with 150k when traded for the Ecoboost with zero issues. Big three trucks are just way better then Japanese trucks!
See the opposite here. All my acquaintances with RAMs have had tranny issues, rear end issues, blown engines at 100,000 miles. Couldnt give me a Fiat product.
My 2018 F150 Fx4 with a 5.0 has been rock solid for 124,000 miles.
My 2020 F150 with the 2.7 has been great, all the power I need for what I use it for.
We’ve had quite a few 2.7 EBs and they’ve proven to be super reliable…
I never hear bad things about the 2.7, not even the 1st gen aside from Ford deciding a plastic oil pan was great to bond to aluminum. 😩😂
@@hellkitty1014 That was a problem with the first generation of the 2.7, they have addressed that in second generation.
😂
@@wint_62 40,000 miles no problems
May 23 Silverado 6.2 has been solidly reliable with zero issues. It is my 5th new GM truck and all have been great for the most part.
I have had a 2017 Ram and a new 2025 Ram , no issues so far
I'll be in the market for a truck next year and my Rams have served me well. Did you get the hurricane in the 25 ram? Curious what your thoughts are.
@@Trotwood45agreed. Would love to hear more about this powerplant.
2019 Ram Rebel with the 5.7 & the air suspension. 61k miles and the only issue I've had is the sway bar links. Originals would work loose and clunk around. Dealer replaced the first set within 6 months and the second set went out the following year. Replaced with beefier aftermarket links and that solved it.
Truck mostly does a mix of city/highway driving with a dozen or so SXS towing trips and 4-5 off road camping trips each year.
I also have a herniated disc in my low back and Ram seats are the most comfortable of any vehicle I've sat in the last 5 years.
I think consumer reports is compromised. They rank BMW top of the reliability list as well.
SO unless it ranks things the way you "think" it should be then it is compromised? Are all Americans this self absorbed? "I don't like it so it must be fake". Yeesh.
I mean I’ve owner BMW and know people that have them currently. I wouldn’t put them on the A list for reliability.
Plus why do you assume I’m an America mate
BMW's over the last 5 years have been pretty good. The b58 and s58 is bullet proof. You can get 600 - 700 hp out of the s58 with no reliability concerns.
But thats just it. With the B58 and ZF trans powering 70% of their vehicles, their ratings would naturally rise. MB is putting out junk now, and Audi's are well...trouble-prone as well.
Weve used Ford F250s and RAM 2500s for my worktrucks. RAMS have been absolute garbage and always sitting at the dealer for major repairs... Id never spend my money on a RAM truck. Interiors are nice, but that doesnt matter when you have to drive another truck while its sitting broke.
F250s have been amazing trucks.
Ford HD trucks are the go to for a reason, but hot shot drivers have really good luck with Rams.
Edit: perhaps it's the highway miles.
@@InuranusBrokoff More likely $.
I had a 2020 Ram 1500 Night Edition w/ Hemi. Phenomenal truck! No issues at all. Would absolutely buy another one.
I had a 2016 Silverado z71 off road, 5.3 v8, I put a range technology plug in module to keep it in v8 mode at all times, but, even before doing that, I had transmission issues with it practically from day 1, had it serviced several times, rebuilt twice under warranty, after almost 6 years I traded it for a 2022 colorado v6, 2wd, no cylinder deactivation bullshit, no start stop bullshit, only when it's first started does the transmission shift a little funky, after it's warmed up, no issues, I'm really liking it a lot
Least reliable does not equate to a bad truck. Overall, they are all amazingly good. Yes, amazing that Ram would place first.
It’s amazing how brand loyal people are.
I grew up driving Ford in 2003 when they came up with a hemi. I started driving ram trucks the best thing I ever did. They are the most comfortable amazing durable, amazing interiors and my trucks I use them day in and day out. I pull trailers with them. I drag race with them incredibly reliable
Virtually no issues at all so Each their own
Owned 3 Ram 1500 last decade all over 120,000 miles zereo issues. What does stelantis do ..get rid of hemi so sad.
I’ve been a C R subscriber for 20 years, when the new ceo took over, it’s obvious that she is an east coast liberal. Magazine changed to reflect her views
That’s the truck you should get this year for the last year Nissan Titan
I just did. $15K in Pro4X discounts make it dirt cheap compared to all competitors. MSRP of equivalent Tundra for my Titan was $75K. I got it for $44K+ TTL and 1 dealer markup. And trump card was V8 vs turbo V6
I have a Powerboost and love it so far. It’s a 2023 and I am only 6,000 miles in. If Ford can refine all of the electronic components, I believe there is a lot of potential for it to become a reliable truck. Unfortunately, some owners have had to deal with some severe and frustrating issues…. I hope I am not going to be one of them! I sometimes wonder if I should have gotten a 2021 Tundra instead. Thanks for the info, Tim.
My first Powerboost was a ‘22 Lariat 502A; it now has about 35,000 trouble free miles on it. My second Powerboost is also a ‘23 and it’s used in our business….so far, so good. I just ordered a ‘24 Powerboost in March of this year after cross shopping a ‘24 Tundra. The F150 won hands down, for me. The ‘24 is taking longer to come in than expected and my salesman suggested dropping the 502A package, which I did. See how that goes….
@@cwqrpportableIt’s good to hear some positive owner experiences. I ordered a ‘24 XLT Powerboost in June, hoping to receive it by the end of the year (I’m in no rush.) Salesman emailed me last week and said it should be here by early August. 🤷🏼♂️
My F150 15’ has 98k’ so far so gd
I have a 21 Powerboost with close to 30k. Had a fuel pressure sensor issue at 2k but since then no issues other than whatever recalls came through. Occasionally issues with CarPlay but it’s never lingering. I have had really good luck with mine and I love the ProPower onboard.
@@IGmeanwell I have similar issues with my Carplay and just have to make sure the truck Wifi is recognized and selected on my phone prior to connecting.
Both GM V8s have the exact same lifters so the lifter issue affects the 5.3 and 6.2 the same. The problem is caused by the springs on the top of the DFM lifter failing.
Likely due to production numbers. They build a LOT more 5.3L than 6.2L.
The supplier for this lifters, is the same one for RAM Hemi's too.
@@terrencejones9817 My daily has a six liter with AFM and 184k trouble free miles.
@@PickuptrucktalkAND….. GM sells more trucks than Ram.. Isn’t Ram on the bottom of the big three for sales? So would be fitting they seem to have the fewest problems.
I have a 2019 Ram Limited and it’s been a great truck. Had the back window leak and the fuel tank had to be replaced and the headers were replaced too. All under warranty but otherwise it’s been great. It’s hard to drive in the city!
That's a lot Buddy lol not normal repairs
2016 Nissan Titan Pro4x diesel has been excellent for me.
I've a 22 F150 power boost that has been fine for me so far. The infotainment system can be oddly glitchy occasionally but it's more like a computer bug that a restart fixes than a reliability issue. I recall another youtuber who had a bunch of electrical issues with his 21 power boost I always assumed those issues came from trying to piece together a vehicle with a lot of electronics during the pandemic when computer chips and other equipment were difficult to get and possibly were using less than ideal components. Has this issue persisted into the 23 model? I've not seen anything about it.
For anyone who doubts Consumer reports, they have been sued by auto manufacturers and won. In court they validated their testing methods which was upheld. They are the only publication I know about that doesn't take money from manufacturers. They also buy their test vehicles from dealers and don't get hand selected vehicles from manufacturers.
Let's talk about the false reports on the Suzuki Samurai in the 80s. Their tests were bogus and they forced the results.
I wouldn’t hold the 80’s against them, they have a much bigger body of work 40 years hence. I quit subscribing when they seemed to go woke several years ago.
The 80s lmfao
Appreciate you researching this for us. I may look at RAM again?
you need to take consumer reports with a grain of salt.
They absolutely lied about the Suzuki Samurai.
Then there were the desktop computers in the 90s where they were trying to say that a $1200 POS desktop, was a great deal.
Hard to argue with data from so much input. When you think about it, how could anyone individual be able to say different? Their personal experience is one out of hundreds of thousands. Just because you didn't have a problem with Yugo doesn't make it a reliable brand.
I'm curious how this quality ranking would play out if the question would address "which full-size truck can be driven to 250k miles with fewest issues." The price of a full size truck has sky rocketed to $70k average sticker price and with maintenance cost soaring I to stratosphere, high reliability is a very strong selling point.
I did that video a few months ago: New Study Shows Best 2023 Truck Bang for the Buck and Long Lasting
czcams.com/video/XLcOaQtozrQ/video.html
I know 3 different people who had to replace the transmission on their 6 cylinder 10 speed Expeditions. I have an 8 cylinder F150 that hasn't had any issues, but it's only at 28k miles.
Problem with RAM on top is they've just switched from the Hemi to the 6 cylinder turbo. Time will tell.
I'll NEVER own another v6 turbo truck. Titan naturally aspirated V8 for the win!
Hands down best truck out there is the Nissan Titan
My 2020 Warlock has been rock solid. No issues, recalls, nothing. Meanwhile, my dad had his lifters replaced on his 2023 Silverado at 10,000 miles...
I have a 2022 Ram Rebel 1500 that I already have 72k miles on.
I havent had any problems other than the transmission still sometimes still hammers. 😅
Might want to service the transmission filter pan and oil.
The Powerboost had some gremlins in 2021 and early 2022. But the late 22 and up seem to be much better. Also in late 2022 Ford fixed a major problem with the 10 speeds by fixing an issue in the CDF drum. I own 2 23’s with the 10 speed and they are great and much better than my 18 F-150. GM lifter issue was bad in 21 and also affected 6.2s my buddy had his go at 8k miles.
The sample pull for 24 F1 50s is pretty small considering there’s so many sitting and lots yet to be shipped dealers don’t have that many of them
Consumer Reports surveys members so it's really a reliability rating for vehicles that are pre-2024 models.
Im in the market for a full size truck and im going with a Tundra. I had a Silverado 1500 and had the engine go bad after 2 years and had to get rid of it. Toyota recalled 92,000 trucks and ford recalled 550,000 trucks. I will go with Toyota, Just my opinion.
I can believe that ram has the most reliability(in the 5.7). Just think, it has the oldest transmission that has proven itself good ( 8 speed) 5.7 has been out a long time and only issues is maybe a lifter here and there. Very low amount. I can see that. Another guy on youtube has 250k miles on is 2019 and its been a great truck.
if I drive mine every day I never hear it if it sits for 4-5 days I hear it
My boss Tundra has been great so far about 60K miles 2023 model
I would think building long lasting reliable trucks would be good. It makes the used market strong, thus keeps the new truck market strong. People and companies, municipalities government always need new trucks
I don’t think the OEM’s care about the used market anymore. Just more power, more tech, gotta keep up bc the awesome truck they advertised and sold to you last year makes you look like a peasant this year, so better trade now for that extra 7hp and different grille.
Last weekend on my way home from wilmington ca brand new toyota tundra broken down and abandoned on the freeway
I recently bought a used 21 Titan sv. It’s a 5.6 and it’s awesome! I have had a few issues, but all were covered by that amazing warranty. It’s sad the Titan is going away, and I hope they bring it back eventually. Every truck has their own issues. Most common I’ve experienced and hear about the titans is the fan clutch. It’s a crap design. Love it regardless and plan on keeping it till it falls apart
I drove a brand new Titan and it got 9mpg on the highway. No thanks.
@@user-xk4vt9ye8j lol they need time to adjust like any vehicle. I Average 17 mpg combined. Best 23 mpg. Usually get about 445-500 miles of range doing the math at the pump
Agree, I still ordered a new F150 believing the issues/recalls are small items..I have a 2021 3.5 and haven’t had any problems at 167,000
2002 6.0 k2500hd. 386000 miles. used daily. still on second set of sparkplugs.
I want to trust these reports, but prior year's reports have had GMC Sierra 1500 as one of the most reliable and Chevy Silverado 1500 as one of the least reliable or 2500 same thing, Yukon XL and Suburban same thing. They have the same motor, trans, electronics, sensors, infotainment, materials etc. Cannot be least and most reliable at the same time.
I think it should put to bed the worries with Ram. JDP and CR have completely different methodologies for capturing quality and reliability from owners, yet both surveys have it on top. True enough, the Hurricane is new and we don't have adequate data to assess yet, but many of the other mechanics and hardware carryover. One thing I love is the 2019-current interiors not only looks advanced, but hold up very well.
It really is a sad fall from grace for Toyota. Cutting corners, shoddy build quality, and problematic engines is something one would never associate with the brand. But here we are...
Can't wait for the hurcon engine. Should be fun.
The thing that stick out the most to me is the amount of ads on your website. I was going to advised you to get an ad blocker, then realized that's your website.
Never thought I would see Toyota at the bottom of the list, yet there it is. Thing is the first two years of any new model you will see the majority of issues called "teething." Be interesting to see if the new Tundra's move back up that list. But being turbo charged now, I doubt it.
I have a 23 Tundra Platinum. So far it’s been awesome, I pull a 33 ft travel trailer with it, no problems. From everything I’ve read and heard only about 1% are having problems. Mine is not in the recall yet, time will tell.
I have a 2023 Toyota Tundra and I have had no issues so far with 13K miles. I did buy a 150K mile extended warranty due to all of the electronic gadgets. I am not worried about the engine recall as I know Toyota will stand behind it. So far mine is not part of the recall. What is the worst that could happen I get a new engine?
2011 f150 coyote v8. Tires, brakes, oil. Thats it . Got a good one
Loving my 24 tundra.
Good luck
@@mabelpup8502Ty
Like my Ram. Been reliable and fit and finish nice…
Only issue I have had with my 2019 RAM was a cracked rear window that RAM replaced free of charge even though my warranty had just expired.
An issue that gets overlooked is how well a manufacturer stands behind their product. Had a 2017 F150. Had two incidents of cam tensioner problems ($4500 repair). First one was handled and they gave me an extended powertrain warranty to support. Second incident. The repaired again, but only warrantied the repair for two years. This problem occurs most normally at 3 years. Ford obviously built a truck to last 100K or less in miles. Had a Ram built in Mexico. Pentastar great! The cab had an integrity problem! I had frost on the inside of my windshield. They resealed, etc. to no avail. What did I do? Just bought a 2024 Chevy Silverado 1500. Why? Lifetime powertrain warranty. Lifetime warranty on repairs completed with OEM parts. They stand behind their product. I feel you list would be in a different order if you consider this aspect of standing behind your product. Note: I didn't try the Nissan Frontier or Honda Ridgeline because I wanted a full size for my old big body. The Frontier is close to what a full size used to be. I sometimes wish I had spent more time with it. Overall - happy with the Chevy and damned glad I don't own a Ford or Ram.
My 14’ Ram was very good to me. In a 21’ Powerboost F150 now. All good so far…
power boost is on my look buy list not sure 2.7 or 3.5 ,same here 2013 5.7 ram 100k miles and 2019 Tacoma 12k miles like them both both
I don’t listen to Consumer Reports. They recommended a Renault years ago that lost a motor during testing, but still recommended it !
No HD trucks? I won't get a 6 cylinder in a truck... PERIOD I'm still driving my 1995 Chevy Silverado K2500 love it !!! It has been so reliable the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. But it's getting hard to find parts for common maintenance items.... Funny thing is I bought a Honda Civic DX in 2005 and last year I had to sell it because it blew a head gasket at only 125,000 miles... and my Chevy truck keeps going... just found that funny how everyone in my circle has boasted about Honda being so reliable and run forever if you take care of it... Well mine sure didn't , but my truck keeps on going...
At the risk of jinxing myself, my two Rams (2018 and 2020) have been flawless.
I have Friend on second Ram 2023 Ram 4x4 has 5.7 hemi E-torque really reliable trucks He said, put lots miles on them.
First Ram had 3.6 liter V-6 4x4. Wanted Ram with More Power.
I believe Ram has new Trim level out called "Tungsten" highest trim level.
LM2 Duramax has issues with Cooling system Control Valve. Parts on up to 8 weeks of backorder.
I don’t value CR recommendations very much.
With the 5.3 Chevy just disconnect the cylinder shut down, this is the time the cylinder head can get stuck😢
Pft. I just skipped the BS and bought the only naturally aspirated V8 left on the market that doesn't shut down. The Titan.
2017 chevy 2500 duramax 6.6 107k. Zero issues!
Been trying to tell people this for years. Ive owned a 5.7 hemi, 2 6.4 hemis, and a 6.7 cummins. All exceptional teucks. Very reliable.
Are you able to share the data that CR used? I know they paywall their stuff but for those who have access is it possible to share more than just a rank and instead provide context for any relative differences?
Sorry, I can’t. It’s an agreement I made with CR.
@@Pickuptrucktalk ah no worries, kinda figured that's how their business model operates. Thank you either way for sharing what you could talk about and post up.
Would love to see this rundown on midsize trucks
I have 3 co workers with Chevy Silverado 1500 2018 and newer. And all 3 needed news transmissions all under 80k miles.😮
I will stick to my 58 Chevy Fleetside .
Like ive said for years with Ram, The most Awarded since 2019 and the most Reliable since 2021 ...RAM-1500 KING OF TRUCKS 👌 ❤👍
King of lot rot .
Yet still have the worst resale value, I just don’t get it.
@@jayray274 I agree with that😫
@@rodgood That would be Ford 🤣
@@rodgood all brands have lot rot, they've priced themselves out of the market, even Tundra's are sitting on my local dealers lot.
Would love to see a video on how or what best used truck to buy. Like 3 year old 5 year old how many miles recalls done ........
Ram is best. No doubt. My 2019 never in the shop. Those who are shocked need to get caught up with great product that it is now and has been for some time. Try driving one.
Great video Tim, Thanks
2019 F250 up to 100k miles zero issues, 2023 F150 only 30k miles so far and zero issues.
what percentage of reliablilty diff are we talking about from 1st to last? I bet its not much. All vehicles designed and/or built during the covid years have had more problems than normal.
What kind of rims are we talking about?? Specifically which engine options and what years? I just visited my high school friend who's been driving a 2010 ram pickup and he says it's the most reliable truck he's ever had.
I lost interest in consumer reports when they said the Mazda Navajo was much better than the same spec Ford Explorer.
when the 3.0 v6 Toyota engine had blown head gasket s 1988-93or so 4runner pus t100's never on the used cars to avoid
how is the Ford f150 raptor reliablity? is it different from the regular f-150?
I gave up on consumer reports years ago when i realized its nothing but a coin flip. I was a long time subscriber and was never polled. I also started comparing year to year evaluations and found little agreement. I also noted that products i purchased had different outcomes than what was reported. I found other sites gave better info.
My brief comments about the list:
The GM 5.3 and 6.2 are junk due to the cylinder de-activation system. That has been a reliability problem since it was introduced on the 5.3 and 6.2. It's a dumb design.
Ford has two decent engines in its pickups--the 2.7L Ecoboost and the 5.0L Coyote. Both are decent engines. The cylinder deactivation on the 2021+ Coyotes is a different design from GM and Ram and seems to be working better, with better engine reliability. The 3.5 Ecoboost is much less reliable than either the 2.7 or 5.0.
The Ram 5.7 Hemi has issues due to cylinder deactivation and is prone to issues if the engine is idled much at all. The 3.6 V6 Pentastar is not the least bit glamourous, but has been a pretty reliable engine.
Got a 06 5.4 312000 and counting
Comparing the RHO to the 5.7 Hemi, is there more engine knock events with 3.0L HO when under load for extended periods of time?
so long as you use the recommended fuel, should there really be any knock at all?
@@Sp33dyStallion Typical pump gasoline?
my 2013 5.7 had ping when new under load run good quality gas haven't heard it in 100k miles , inline 6 engine give it some time yrs 150k -200k miles if it last , will I consider it
You can't outsmart me Esterado... I watched this in reverse in a mirror so it was most to least.😂
LOL
Yeah. I think that new Hurricane powertrain is going to mess with this result for Ram in the coming years. They should have left it alone.
Just had my 2020 F-150 transmission rebuilt after only 40,000 miles.
2018 Ram 3500 Cummins owner, its a tank.
Google Spyware in my truck? He'll no!
I have a 2019 5th gen Ram with the old school Hemi under the hood. Im driving this until the wheels fall off. I trust that Hemi more so than that that new Hurricane engine. Hopefully we have a change in government ( Harris is defeated ) and on these idiotic EPA rules are scaled back. Ram should at least keep the Hemi as a special order package. However I am curious about Cummings gas powered engines. If those are offered that will be a game changer for Ram.
