throttle tuning that made the whole truck more alive. Wish RAM would put a sport button type tune on the RAMs as well.
I think Ram missed a trick not putting eco and sport throttle settings. Get a Pedal Commander, that does the job and makes it much better in the sport modes. I was really surprised at how effective it is.

After buying the Ram, I needed the space on my driveway, so I sold my 1995 Jeep Cherokee Sport. I still have my 2001 Wrangler. Not sure if I'll keep it or sell it. It only has 80k on it, sleeps in the garage so the soft top and windows are in excellent shape.

A two car household, I had a 2002 Chevy regular cab, shortbed, 4wd. It was a good truck but getting rusty. Wife drives a 2010 Cadillac SRX AWD V6. We occasionally pull a 21' camper, No problems pulling with '02 Chevy but wife didn't like it (no recliner seat, no power windows). So.......we pulled the camper with the Cadillac. It did the job but spent most of the time above 3500 RPM , way over 4,000 RPM in a headwind or hilly area. Still have the Caddy, the '02 Chevy was privately sold to a friend after I bought the new Ram.

Had a few Rams before this one. I miss the 3500 the most but love the comfort this 5th gen provides.

That's the GMC i wanted but fell in love with the Ram, how do you compare that GMC to the Ram?

The GMC had a bunch more power as it was tuned for E85 and had a BTR Camshaft among a list of other upgrades. It also had a much better turning radius. The RAM has good power, rides and drives amazing, and interior is much better. Still partial to the GMC looks. I do like the RAM better.

Made quite a change from my 18' S4. Definitely a big adjustment!

1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Bought new by my dad and step-mom, given to me in 2004 as my first car. I’ve had a 2007 Grand Cherokee SRT8 and a 2010 Grand Cherokee 3.7L since then, but both of those are gone now. Still have the ZJ, but it was time for something more reliable. Don’t think I’ll ever get rid of it though.
