So happy with new purchase !!

[cw_mi]

Just brought my Ram home yesterday. Crew Cab 6'4" box Laramie , sport , offroad pkg, Level 2 (8.4" scrn) group, tow pkg, 3.92 gears,bed convenience pkg and power boards. Delmonico Red.

This truck turned out awesome, better than I imagined from building it up online. I'm coming from an '05 2500 quad cab short box Laramie with a Cummins. I don't tow much anymore and when I do it isn't a lot of weight. All I can say is , all the new technology these vehicles have is pretty overwhelming. It's is definitely going to take some time to get accustomed to all of it.

Couple of things I was bit surprised with, and they aren't really a negative just something to note. The turning radius on this thing isn't all the best, I didn't think the wheel base was that much longer than my old truck, it must be though. Being the sport package, I was surprised to see chrome on it. Side emblems are chrome, along with the mirrors and wheels. Not a big fan of the Falken tires, might swap them for some Bridgestone Dueler Revos. Other than that, this truck is awesome.

Welcome and congrats on the truck! Yeah I agree, the turning radius isn't that great, I had a 2010 Tundra before this and that thing could turn on a dime. I attribute the wide turns with the big wheels and long wheelbase for now.

Congrats! I too came from a diesel to this ‘19. I had a 2010 3500 crew 6’4 bed and completely agree with the turning radius. My 2010 3500 turned tighter than this one!

Congrats on new truck purchase. I am looking at replacing my '16 3500 Laramie crew cab srw 8' bed cummins with a '19 6'4" Limited. Interesting to see other diesel converts. I am a little nervous I'm going to miss the cummins, but the new interiors on these trucks are incredible! Enjoy your new truck.

I had the opposite experience to turning radius, coming from an F150, i was ecstatic with the turning radius as the f150 was huge

Nice to read a "happy" thread! Since ordering my Limited I'm here everyday and, of course, most threads are about issues or problems. Though its to be expected it is really nice to read about a good experience.

Congratulations and welcome aboard!!!

Yeah, the new truck experience just keeps getting better.
Although i can't park this thing worth a crap. Using the back up camera i just can't back this thing straight. Been driving pickups since '01 and i'm having a tougher time with this one.
