I currently own a 2023 Ram 1500 Big Horn and am thinking of replacing it with a 2500 crew cab, model year 2023-2025 with the 6.4L gas engine, not the diesel.
Right now, I would just like some inputs from people that have or have had one of these, and what they think of it – problems, likes, dislikes, that kind of thing. Would you buy another one?
I am not looking for comparison with other makes for right now, I just want feedback on this truck.
Thanks

I have this truck with the Cummins diesel. It’s the best truck I’ve ever owned.

I also have an older 2500 with the Cummins diesel. But I have some very good friends with, if memory serves me correctly, a 2019 2500 with the 6.4 hemi. They love it - it has been trouble free at nearly 100,000 miles now.

I have a ‘24 Ram 2500 Limited. It has the 6.7 Cummins. The ONLY thing I don’t like about this truck…. is i WISH it had the 6.4 Hemi.

I also have a ‘15 Ram 1500 with the 5.7 Hemi. It has 185K+ miles on it. I PREFER to drive it for my Daily-Driver.

We only take the Cummins on long trips pulling the Airstream while camping.

I’ve had no problems with the Cummins. It’s just that engine is worrisome because of the emissions and that grid-heater. (I’ve disconnected the grid-heater at the powering-relay because even down to freezing temps that engine fires up immediately without any heat. When the truck is out of warranty… I’ll delete that item completely using a blank/empty intake plate.)
