Hey All, Just joined the forum a few days ago. Had a RAM before, it was a 2007 Mega Cab 6.7 diesel. It was great for about 9 mos, then the issues started. First, DPF, then turbo, then complete exhaust and then everything all over again. To make a long story short, I lemon law'd the truck and got a toyota. I was happy with the truck, but not much towing capacity, and been thinking about a new truck. Drove it 8 years, and it went to a happy new owner.


So, it's either RAM or Denali..... The interior and the comfortable drive sold me. 2019 Limited it is!!!! I bought it tuesday night, and it was already a great deal at 54K, but I got another 2,500 off :D... Truck is Maximum Steel, with the 6'4" bed.... Will get some pics up soon !!

Be aware that the mileage during break-in is atrocious, but it does improve in a few thousand miles.
Thanks Richard, I've only put about a hundred miles on it so far. I think my tacoma probably got less mileage per gallon, well, that's what the sticker says anyways. lol

Welcome aboard. Im in my very first Ram, coming from a lifetime of GM vehicles.
Yep, I've usually had a GM or toyota myself. Loved that 07 Mega Cab, but couldn't keep it outta the shop. Hoping the build quality has improved, the darn thing sure looks better than my 07.. Chris

Thanks DR... They also had a red, which I liked as well. This was the only 2019 with the 6'4" bed, and that's what sold me ;D

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the Ram!


Make sure you go file for this additional rebate. Do it within 60 days of purchase.

The only qualification is that “someone in your household” must have a non-FCA vehicle or that you traded in a non-FCA vehicle.

Thanks Patsy! Free money is always good. Well, it'll be spent on something for the truck or the boat. lol..... Chris
