    Detroit Three's lucrative pickup war intensifies as Ram makes big gains

    I've never owned a full-size pickup and shopped all of them before recently deciding it would be a Ram. I had owned german cars since 1998, and still do. Related to what you're saying, I don't see how anyone can sit in the Ram 1500 and then get in the Silverado or the Sierra and be happy with...

    One option you wish you had

    After taking delivery recently, I'll say the options that surprise me the most as incredibly valuable are the surround camera system, and the radar cruise control. Was wondering if they were worth the extra expense, but now it's an emphatic yes on these two for me.

    Surround view camera usefullness? (How do you use yours?)

    I’ll go ahead and say that 48 hours after owning this truck, I think the surround camera is a game changer. At first it kind of confused me, but after parking this truck probably a dozen times now, it’s a necessity in my book. Very helpful in my garage and in parking lots.

    Order Tracking

    So I ordered Feb 8 and I know I was D1 on Feb 14, but I believe D1 started on Feb 13 though unconfirmed. I was still D1 on Feb 18 which was the last time I checked before I discovered it was already built and sent to shipping on Feb 25th. Therefore it's hard to say with precision, but it was...

    Ramchat. Give them your VON from the dealer. Or the dealer can check for the VIN. Either way.

    2019 Ram 1500 owners manual in PDF format

    FYI - There is a sixth edition of the owners manual now. I tried attaching it but the file size limitation would not allow it.

    No e-torque for me, nor ram boxes. I believe this approach may have been why my truck was built so fast!

    Order Tracking

    Replying to myself is bad form, but I did have the chance to pick the truck up on Saturday after all so I wanted to attach a picture. That made it 22 days from order to pickup - 3 weeks instead of the 6-8 forecasted. I have not owned an American brand since 1998. Color me impressed with the...

    Ram 1500 orders - Tell Us About Yours!

    It was a trade off. Take it home tonight or let them clean it up in the morning. They surely would have cleaned it up for you if you wanted. I would have taken it home, too.

    Axle ratio

    Wow, this has been an informative thread. I'm awaiting an ordered truck, and I'm not going to be towing or hauling much if ever, but it's been fun to read this. I actually drove a couple different 3.21 trucks and a 3.92 truck before ordering, and the 3.92 felt more lively so I ordered that...

    Who else is waiting for the new tailgate?

    I'm kind of indifferent on the new tailgate. I liked the loading advantage (less reaching) but they have priced it too high and I was surprised at the weight of this new tailgate at 75 lbs. That's a significant percentage of the 255 lb weight loss MY2019 - 2018.

    Standard Coil vs. Air Suspension - my back to back review FWIW

    UPDATE: FWIW, I was subsequently interested in separating out the effects on ride quality of the air suspension and the 22 inch wheels, so last Thursday I went back and drove the only truck the dealer had with 22's and standard coil suspension - it was a Laramie sport with the sport 22's that...
