Never thought I would do it but I bought a pretty mint 2022 1500 with 19K on it from a dealer.
Ive been a GM truck owner since 1989. Back in the day my wife and I were both getting new trucks and SUVs every two or three years. Good times back then.
In '08 I suffered a pretty bad neck injury that put me out on LTD. At the time I had a real nice '05 Chevy 2500 crewcab. Sold the truck in '11 and went to a 1500 due to the ride. Went from the '11 to a '13 and owned that right up to now. Its in my driveway and Im taking it to the new owner tomorrow AM.
I decide on a RAM after driving a few new Chevy trucks. Gotta say the new GM trcks ride like crap. Rough ride, hard seats. Maybe great for a younger healthy guy but I felt like I was sitting on a plywood bench. So I started looking for a late model RAM in December. The one I bought was a lease turn in that was originally from the selling dealership. The truck rides great ! No E torque. Hemi. The truck feels much quicker than the Chevy with the 5.3. Hopefully it will last for a few years. Glad I bought it. Now for some add ons ! LOL
 
I'm new to the Ram family after last having a Dakota back in '04. Couldn't be more happier.

Best of luck with the Ram. Hope you enjoy it.
