Pretty much the perfect option list. Do you want to sell it? Lol
Did you buy it new?

I have had my 2019 RAM 1500 Bighorn for just about a year now. Currently have just over 8,000 km on her (Short commute)
I have had two issues during that time that where taken care of by dealers under warranty. First the headlight switch crapped out at 400k. Lights stayed in the on position all the time when the Truck was on. They replaced the switch with a new one. Took a month to get the part. Then last summer my dash reported an issue with the 4x4 system. Truck was stuck in 2WD. I could not switch it to any other mode. There was no issue driving it and luckily it was summer. Some module needed to be replaced. It took 2 month to get the part. Dealer kept saying soon but never had a definitive date. I ended up contacting RAM Canada via email and low and behold the part showed up a couple days later.

Even with these issues I love the Truck. It drives great and the 5.7 Hemi has the right amount of power. No V6 Truck for me. I have a 10km commute to work each way, so I don't care about gas usage.

My Truck had a sticker price of $62,000 and I paid $47,000.

I have a 2019 Super Crew Lariat with the 2.7L EB.

It’s my third 2.7. I absolutely love this motor. I wouldn’t get another 5.0L. My rental (truck written off) was a 5.0 and I missed my 2.7.

[1BAD92LX]

I’m surprised the amount of Ram owners on here

What’s the fuel mileage like? That little engine must have to work pretty hard. Do you tow with it?

LOL, no I love it too much!!

Yeah, I bought it new in July of 2015... traded in my Trans-Am for it LOL

I have 3 Rams in the company currently.

a 2014 1500 5.7 8spd Laramie with 345k that has been a total pleasure to own. 14l/100km overall average. Love this truck just not big enough to tow our larger trailers.

Also have a 2017 2500 Laramie Power Wagon with the 6.4L hemi and a 6spd. Great truck, just a wee bit thirsty. Every time I'd start it some Arab would get an erection. Not real practical for the 80k I do a year, but it was a leftover special order and the price was right at ~$52k new. Sticker list was 68k.

Now I'm in a 2019 2500 Limited with the 6.7 diesel. I've had it a month and have 7k on it. I've only had to fill it 9x so far. Can't wait to hook up the big trailer and give her a workout. Got this one for 17k off list.

Every time the dealer calls me about "upgrading my 1500 Sport" I get tempted by the Cummins trucks.

Strangely enough the most common truck I see on job sites, Diesel F250 Platinum. Swear every site I visit theres at least 3 of them.

I haven’t but it tows up to 7600lbs.

Trying I can get 10.5L/100. Just driving mixed is about 12.

The power is amazing. 400tq. It’s like a magic carpet ride.

I love this motor. It definitely does not lack in performance. It just lacks the V8 sound, which is important to some. Not to me tho. Drop the hammer and it goes.
