The Ram 1500 may be big, but believe it or not, it's one of the smallest full-sized truck offerings in terms of both the vehicle's width and length. I work at a Chevy dealership, but I have to admit that I love Chrysler products - particularly the Ram trucks. They seem easier to drive and place, and the sloped-down hood makes it easier to see things directly in front of you. They're comfortable, and of course, sound great,
To each their own ;) I love the Tahoe, Suburban, Silverado, and Colorado. I'll admit the smaller vehicles generally don't impress me at all, especially compared to other brands that give you much better interiors and features for the price.
I haven't researched dimensions so if you're right than so be it but I've driven a late model Chevy and ford and I'll tell you my 2014 RAM 1500 feels and drives like a much bigger truck than both and i LOVE that. Plus it feels alot heavier which again I love. Chevy rides crazy smooth and ford has a smooth ride as well, but it feels like I'm driving a car! With RAM half tons coil suspension it does ride smooth also but it doesn't feel as "assisted" as the competition.
OSTKCabal I hate the GMC and Chevy 1500 trying to parallel park with that boxy front end drives me nuts Ford's seem like you will hit something but you still have room which I hate too but that's the Ford 1 tonne still haven't driven the 1500 but the ram what you see is what you have visibility in the ram is a lot better let's see this 2019 model hopefully they haven't changed it
Todd Jones That's your opinion. But it's actually not much better, the 5.7 hemi is miles better than the POS 5.0 ford and that's not opinion that's fact. You hear tons of complaints everywhere about the 5.0.
I have the Big Horn edition of this truck. I've had it about 6 months now. Mine has cloth seats and doesn't have the lowering....I think. I'll have to go look...lol. Lots of options and every time I read the owners manual I find something new. The 4wheel drive saved my life when I had to drive down 12 miles of mud and snow and ice in the dark. If it would have got stuck it was miles to get help in below freezing temperatures. I kissed my truck after getting me thru that. The Hemi with an 8 speed auto is a beast at just under 400 horsepower. Pet peeves, turning radius. The worst I've ever had. Parking in a grocery store parking lot is a challenge every time. I could go on and on about this truck....love it
I just purchased a new 2019 Ram classic Tradesman with the SXT package. This truck is loaded with options, 5.7 Hemi, limited slip rear, 4x4. I love this new Ram of mine, optioned out the way I would have had one built. I plan on having this truck for a long time.
I just purchased a brand new, left over 2019 Ram classic two days ago. 5.7 hemi, a true 4x4 with locking front and rear end. My weather tomorrow, 6-8 inches of snow, so I'll get to see what the 4x4 is like.
Excellent video. I just bought my first pick up truck ever and I love it to death; 2019 Ram Rebel 1500 with a 5.7 engine. This truck is a beast and it’s the best good looking truck in the market, especially with those hood vent and badges. I only wish that my radio was a bit bigger so I can see more clearly when I use my back up camera. But other than that, no complaints. I even bought the package that covers it bumper to bumper for up to 150k miles. Don’t forget guys to always get Gap insurance when you finance, especially when you owe 70% or more.
Man that HEMI sounds amazing. I own a '16 2500 Laramie Longhorn with the Mega cab here, unbelievable truck with unbelievable interior and the Cummins destroys anything in its path.
Owned a ford... nothing but problems. Now I have a ram and couldn’t be happier. I’d rather pay for a reliable engine and drivetrain that won’t cost me thousands in repairs than a 5 star interior. That being said, I love the ram interior it’s very nice and I have no complaints.
Really? My rear diff blew at 47500km on my 2019 ram 1500. Replaced and 3 days later it broke after waiting 2 months for the repair. Then i heard noise after the third repair... turned out rear wheel bearings went. Another 100km's later ac went out and i can hear it leaking behind the dash. This truck has been the biggest pos i have ever driven. New truck and more problema than any used dodge neon or jeep liberty i ever owned. When its no longer under warranty im selling it immediately. Parts for this truck are all ezpensive and subpar.
I see it sometimes on the streets in Germany. Amazing Truck. Maybe I'll buy it after finishing my studies at the university. Greetings from Cologne. :)
Great POV. Nice truck!! One of my friends has one similar to yours and I enjoy riding in it just as much as I enjoy driving my F150. With the right tires these are all excellent winter daily drivers!
The reason the manual says you will take a hit in MPG is because some parts of the 4x4 system stay engaged all the time when in auto that would normally be disconnected when 4x4 is completely disengaged. More rotating mass the fuel it takes to turn. It makes the system faster to engage when in auto to have it all engaged but the actual transfer-case. I would only have it in 4x4 auto when the weather is questionable.
Why does this guy and so many drivers on the road today, wait until the last possible second to turn their turn signals on? This guy does it after he stops the truck rather than at least a hundred yards prior to the turn.
I have a '16 Power Wagon, and I've been very pleased in this first year and 25k miles. Zero issues, hopefully it will continue that way for years and miles to come. Impressive off-road beast, been to Moab twice, comparable to my '97 Lexus LX450 (with factory lockers). Just bigger and a shitload more power ;-)
I like the way the Ram looks, I just don't trust them for reliability. I wanted a 2019 so bad, but I just went with Ford for safety. I'll check out Ram in the next 6 years to see how they have been doing
I have a friend who has always had Ford trucks but his latest one he says " nickel and dimed him to death and when the turbo went and they wanted $4000 to fix it he did it himself then drove it to the nearest Ram dealer to test drive one and that is what he drove home. He loves his Ram.
Great review! Can you please do the 2018 ford expedition fx4. I'm very curious to see that suv in action, especially while there is still snow. Thanks!
As soon as you said "not as sophisticated as a Ford or Chevy" I knew you knew nothing about current trucks! The Ram is far more refined than either of them!
This was filmed three years ago before the current generation was even out before ram even redesign the entire interior on their 1/2 tons. So yeah this was not as sophisticated as Ford’s and Chevy’s that year
God i love the sound of the 5.7, too bad the line of v8s is rapidly decreasing. We have a 2015 and its probably never seen above 4k rpm and rarely even over 3. Ive never unleashed its full potential but boy do i want to. The higher end rpm does sound a bit scary though lmao
I've yet to hear of any major issues. Semi trucks use air suspension too and have very few problems. The last comment was kinda worthless so I had to post something somewhat helpful.
It may be me, but it didn't seem like a $60k truck; none of them actually do. Were the Honda Fit's (MSRP) worth of add-ons noticeable and were they actually necessary? Crazy how fast the price goes North when adding "stuff". What are your thoughts on some of the controls that used to have their own dial/button are now through the UConnect system/infotainment screen? Easier, harder, more/less convenient? The truck looks nice, but I'm not thinking 60k clams nice; that is GMC Denali territory.
Was this drive in snow tires or all season tires? Trying to see if the truck handles as well as it does because of the tires or its just that stable of a truck.
since I ordered my '19 RAM 1500 with 10 ply ALL TERRAIN tires I am guessing my truck will do a bit better than yours in the snow. not a fan of ALL SEASON tires like yours came with. I do a little towing.
That question doesn't have an answer. The diesel will always cost more and they might have improved interior in that cost but you'd have to drive them both for yourself to answer. No one hates a Cummins tho
Your rebel has a different transfer case (honestly a better one). I have a 19 ram 1500 with the "auto 4wd", "4wd lock" and "4wd low". The mechanism in my truck to power the front wheels is done with a clutch. Your truck truly locks the front drive line with the rear when engaged which is why it doesn't have an auto feature. It's much better for off reading, however doesn't play nice with conditions in which you may be on mixed conditions (sometimes slippery then sometimes grippy).
Your ram truck has a auto wiper blade. U don't have to injust the wipers. The auto wipers injustice is it for u. Depending on the weather conditions. Basically u leave the wipers alone and let auto do its thing. It works great
Depending on the make and their own systems, yes, it will act as an AWD. In some makes the AWD is permanently distributed 50% to front wheels and 50% to rears. Others are 60% F - 40% R. I don't know the RAM system, but the Ford AWD is 100% to the rear and as the traction is needed to the front the system will start transfering torque to the fronts up to 50% (obviously it will reduce torque to the rears proportionally - e.g. 10% F - 90% R, 30% F - 70% R, and so on). Still the RAM's very efficient as well.

that heated steering wheel sound really cool to have
once you go heated you never go back
It is, but it gets hot fast so after a while it becomes uncomfortable and you have to turn it off..but it's nice when you first get in
No it's not!!

Thank you for this wonderful test! I love RAM but here where I live, the roads are narrower than this truck lol.
First truck I have owned....14 ..1500..hemi....amazing vehicle...it just does it, no questions
Do you still own your 2014?
I will definetly get into debt from a dealership for this car.. such a beauty
2:42 we have got a little bit of traction here... Turns steering wheel 90 degrees whiles going straight 😂👍🏻

When ever you get on the gas my mind sneaks in the hellcat supercharger whine
Cool!
I enjoyed this so much. Thank you
I love that dial shifter. And my goodness doesn't that hemi sound wonderful?

me: uh. that is huge 😭
I love how great this truck handles a dump in the center console or glove box,
Amazing truck man,i have the same one i love it
That's a nice shift knob you got
Why does this guy and so many drivers on the road today, wait until the last possible second to turn their turn signals on? This guy does it after he stops the truck rather than at least a hundred yards prior to the turn.
I believe 100 ft. Is the rule except for BMWs.

My 2018 rebel does not have 4w auto, it only has 4wlock and 4lo. Did your rebel actually come with auto, or are you driving in 4wdlock?

Does it come in a regular cab? I hate the limo look on a truck
Steven Bruce I know the blacked out hemi 4x4 version comes in smaller cab varieties but as for all the fancy stuff this truck has I'm not sure
I'm thinking the new Ram trucks are going for the Ford Raptor look; some of the new Toyota trucks too.
Which tonneau cover if I may ask?
hey can you try the new peugeot 508 2019 or toyota rav4 2019 ?
nice video bro☺
did this truck have the limited slip rear end?
Do you have every option they give you in the truck?
So 4x4 auto is basically awd?
Depending on the make and their own systems, yes, it will act as an AWD.
In some makes the AWD is permanently distributed 50% to front wheels and 50% to rears. Others are 60% F - 40% R. I don't know the RAM system, but the Ford AWD is 100% to the rear and as the traction is needed to the front the system will start transfering torque to the fronts up to 50% (obviously it will reduce torque to the rears proportionally - e.g. 10% F - 90% R, 30% F - 70% R, and so on).
Still the RAM's very efficient as well.
Does the anti spin rear axle engage automatically like a limited slip? Or can the driver select it?
Maybe you should watch the crash test on something before you buy it next time and a set of snow tires will give more confidence
never use auto if u value the clutch packs for the transmission and transfue case
I prefer to turn off ESC in 4auto because then it’s AWD drive for drifting
Sounds awesome. Is it comfortable?
What’s the mpg on the truck?
i have a ram rt with acouple of mods but holly shit it moves
