AC is Cold, rear window/brake light doesn't leak, and I get great fuel mileage on my 4x4 3.92 E Torque 5.7L

[rotts4u]

I have been worried about summer as I keep hearing about the poor AC performance but I live in the south and its plenty hot already here and my AC is cold. I haven't measured it but its plenty cold for me and passengers. Also my rear window has a shadow line for the crack at 6000 miles but no water there or at the rear brake light yet either. And perhaps the most thing I am happy about is fuel mileage. I drive about 28 miles each way to work and about 8-10 miles is interstate and the rest is back roads. Tank after tank after tank the display shows 18.7-19.0 mpg. When I hand calculate of course its a little lower.

I have been experimenting with the DTE on the fuel tank because I only have the 26 gallon tank. Most of the time the gauge is near E but it still shows 60-80 miles remaining so the last few tanks I have been going lower and lower and seeing how many gallons it takes. The last tank it showed 63 DTE and when I filled up it took 21.5 gallons. This tank. I took it down to 13 DTE and the tank accepted 24.6 gallons and the last 1-2 I had to put in slowly to get that much in there. So it appears to me that the digital DTE gauge is very accurate. Another 13-18 miles would have used up most of the 1.6 gallons I had remaining.

So far I can't find anything I dont like about it. It rides great looks great has a great engine etc. I love my 2019 Longhorn and most of all I love my DIY truck drawers I made for it.

It's great to hear from someone who is overall happy with their RAM. I have 10k miles on my 2020 and only had to deal with the third brake light leaking thus far but other than that I have been happy with my truck in all other areas to include towing.

So, you really meant 24.4, not 26.4 Glad you're so happy with your truck. I feel the same way about mine.

Buy a lottery ticket now.

 

[Snakes709]

Like wise. Its nice not having any issues. All i had to do is sell that piece of **** ram and buy a Sierra 1500 AT4.

This is good to hear, thank you.

 

[Grape_Ape]

Awesome! Glad to hear it.

I'm hoping the first oil change helps my MPG some. I can't seem to keep mine above 15 on the trip computer. We've got a road trip coming up though and I'm hopeful I'll see some better fuel economy on mostly highway. Not really a complaint, it's a truck after all, but I'd like to be around 17-19 like the rest of you guys. Otherwise no complaints w/ my truck so far!

Excellent news.

You're on the wrong forum......here is a link to the crappy GMC forum below.

Thanks for starting this thread. It is good to know that owners out there have trouble free RAMs in the driveway. Frustrated owners need a place to vent and a forum is a place for that, but it tends to give the impression that a model overall is problematic. I have owned my Laramie Longhorn for nearly one year and it has been trouble free, too. Cold A/C, no leaks anywhere, ICE perform without a glitch. I am super happy with RAM.

That's awesome!

About the only one of those I can say is true with my RAM, is the A/C is cold.

 

[highgear2005]

No issues with my 19 bighorn. My air conditioner works just fine. Other then the small rock chip in the windshield. I’m happy with this truck. 8600 miles and my average is near 19. 5.7 3.92 non e torque.

Other than a slight "creak" coming from the rearview mirror cover that I corrected using felt, I have had no issues on my 2019 Longhorn. The AC is ice cold, super comfortable ride, and an overall awesome truck!

 

[KcRay]

AC is cold, no water leaks, average 16.5 -17. mpg 50/50 city/highway. More than happy with my Ram! I've had 3 brand new trucks in 6 years, If I were not happy with this one, I would not have it.

 

[Dusty1948]

It's been both hot and humid here in western New York state and some of my passengers still complain about the AC being too cold.

This is great. Reviewing these forums really makes me nervous sometimes. My truck was ordered last week.

Wondered....is a leaking brake light covered under warranty?
