Welcome to the forum, Pilot. I don't know how many of us there are, but welcome to the 'first time owning a RAM truck' club. I bought my 1500 Limited Granite Night edition just 2 months ago (and ~2200 miles), and I still can't quite believe how great it is to drive. Even my 'sensible gas...

Congratulations on your upgrade! Similar to you and Eighty above, I upgraded from an '07 Taco Prerunner and now own a '24 RAM 1500 Limited - and what an upgrade it is!

I think a decision to replace sway bars will have to wait until after I've put a lot more miles on my new truck, and after I get a solid feel for how the truck tows our trailer next year. I'm coming from a much smaller 2-wheel drive Tacoma Prerunner, so everything feels different. I really...

First time posting a photo and first time posting a photo of my new RAM 1500! Hope I succeed! I've driven it about 450 miles already, and I LOVE how it handles. Half the time I want to drive just under the speed limit just so I can cruise along. The other half of the time I want to fly. This...

I had a momentary bit of excitement as I looked at the photo, but I suddenly realized this probably won't work for me unless it is easily removed/easily put back in. I've been known to haul things like compost, mint hay, and dead leaves in my old pickup to use in my garden. I wouldn't be able to...

I had originally planned to buy a rubber mat for the bed, but a guy I know recommended getting a Bedrug like this: BedRug Bed Mats Bed Liners & Accessories | RealTruck Either way, I need something soon to pad my knees. My truck has the Pirelli tires, too. I don't know enough about various...

Fortunately, the guy who sold me his trailer owns a 2022 RAM Laramie - basically the same vehicle I have (same options), but mine is a Limited. I'm confident our truck will tow the trailer just fine. That's encouraging to know you've had a soft cover trifold for so long and suffered no...

I'm only three days in, but I already love my new truck. Yup, I got the night edition, power running boards, Advanced safety group w/ adaptive cruise control, 3.92 axle, dual-pane sunroof, 33-gallon tank, Limited level 1 equipment group, CPP 27M, Air suspension, spray in bed liner, and the...

If the photo above your alias is your current pickup, our trucks are twins. :cool: I got the regular tailgate instead of the multifunction version.

Well, I'm officially a new 2024 RAM 1500 Limited owner! :cool: It's going to take me a while to learn how to use all the controls, but I've already mastered the gas and brake pedals. This vehicle is not a pickup - it's a sports car!

It turned out that I didn't buy my new 1500 Limited today because I temporarily got distracted by a GMC Denali 3L diesel test drive. The Denali was within a few hundred dollars of the Limited, so I figured it was worth a shot. Both my wife and I decided that we prefer the Limited, so we'll pick...

My apologies. I'm still new here. Fortunately for me, I already determined that I want the 3.92. ....Automatic car washes? Sounds like a huge can of worms....I won't ask. :D I've learned quite a lot here already. I'm glad I found this website. I think I'll have my new RAM 1500 Limited tomorrow...

How big a deal is it if my truck has a 26-gallon tank instead of a 33-gallon tank? I ask because the best deal so far on a 2024 Limited is one with a 26-gallon tank. The other 2 trucks (at 2 different dealerships) have 33-gallon tanks, but one has the 6'4" bed (really don't need it) while the...

There's a 2023 1500 Laramie 5.7L HEMI at a nearby dealership that I'm sorely tempted to buy. They quoted me $57,657...but their website says $55,990. The salesman claimed it was a typo....Seems to me I can hold them to the website price, shouldn't I? [Edit to update] Well, we test drove three...

Many thanks to everyone who responded. I spent the past couple weeks researching and test driving two brands of pickups - RAM 1500 Laramie and Toyota Tundra. I've been a Tacoma driver since about 2006, so I tend to want to stay in the fold. Anyway, I tried hard to like the Tundra more than the...
