Well not really, but I just put 7,251 km on the RAM in 6 days of driving (All towing trailer) and not even a peep out of it, which I know is 'to be' expected I suppose but just thought I'd share, it pulled great, up hill, down hill, all around and I let it idle for a looooooooong time when I was stopped so I could still have the air going and such, anyways, pleased on the performance and reliability for the trip!! that's all :)

I now have 74,714 km on it with 18,937 km of that being towing...

Inquiring minds want to know, what was on the trailer ?

It’s funny... I liked the new Rams when they came out but now I think they look kind of boring. The last gen now looks more appealing to my eye. More character.

This has nothing to do with towing of course...

Do we really need to guess? I think it’s obvious.

What has GR been talking about non-stop for the last 2 months? Changes the conversation to it no matter what subject you are trying to talk about, LOL.


Edit: and just to be clear, tanks aren’t really renown for “towing”. They blow shit up. I think he meant to say the RAM is a Tractor!!

I'm kinda the same. Every so often I see a blacked out new gen Sport with the 22s and get the mild itch to swap up, but my 13-18 still looks good to me so not worth 25k upgrade price. The 19+ interior is crazy though.

To bad I didn’t find out before. I was told you came back empty from where I just had my Shelby picked up for shipping.

good in some spots...not so good in others, avg I guess overall okay but ran into a huge head wind and couple storms in Sask that absolutely killed the mileage, was getting around 14-15/100 with car, then as soon as turned into the wind it shot up to 19-20/100, with just trailer anywhere from 12.6-13.5/100, best I got was 741km on a tank, worst was like 450km in the ridiculous wind

Apparently they’re making the old ones (classic) still, into 2020 I’m told, but we’ll see. They have great deals on them very often, probably hurting sales of the new Ram, but same as the Grand Caravan/Pacifica, people prefer new and cheap, to new and nice.

Yea, our fleet guy said Classic lives on to 2020, but limited models still mostly the work truck and budget spec stuff.
