I agree. I love Ford but the Ram is killing all other brands now.Welcome! I have had plenty of Ford’s in my stable at one time or another and really have no complaints with them but IMO right now nothing compares with this new Ram. Best of luck
I was the same way, always loved the all black interiors and still do. I was set on a fully loaded Laramie with all black interior, however, after opting the Laramie I was in the Longhorn-Limited price range. I really like the Limited but did not want air suspension and did want two tone exterior paint which neither could be opted on the Limited. I have never liked two tone interiors, especially those of Ford’s King Ranch. Just so happened when I was at the dealer ordering my truck they had a Longhorn with the black/ new saddle interior in the showroom. My wife and I both absolutely loved it so Longhorn it was. If for not seeing it first hand I may have went with the loaded Laramie with all black interior. I absolutely understand the lighter interior colors with younger kids. Fortunately my kids are older now so I could take a chance on it and hope it holds up! That’s the nice thing about all these choices and options, I’m sure you will enjoy whatever you decide on. IMO you can’t go wrong with any of these ‘19 Rams.
That truck is gorgeous.
I thought I would not like the shifter in the Ram. I have had Ford’s as well with the center console shifter, including our current Expedition and really like it, however, call me crazy but I actually like the Ram’s hockey puck better. Obviously it allows for more center console storage but the way I like to rest my right arm on the center console allows for it to be in perfect position for shifting. Maybe that’s just me though!
ranges...or more aptly, Flip phone vs Smartphone. I almost feel guilty driving it. IMO, Ford needs to seriously scramble and have more up their sleeve than impractical 0-60 stats and payload alone. The gap is just that large, both on fit/finish, ride etc. I really did not find my latest F150 was keeping up on quality either. For a matured generation, I was plagued with TSBs, Recalls, and overall mediocrity. The things I miss, but not that much...would be MPGs, maybe better visibility...and an occasional sense of urgency at a green light ;-) As a semi-non-loyal Ford friend who drove in my Ram commented, 'this blows the F150 away'.
no lie
