Verdict: Ram has a solid lineup of trucks for all pickup buyers. From off-road enthusiasts to long-haul truckers towing huge loads from one end of the country to the other, there’s a heavy-duty Ram pickup designed for every need.

What people say
Great and powerful truck with the Cummins! Ram has every option in the Laramie that you can imagine! Great fuel mileage also!
6.4 hemi with 8 speed trans of pure muscle. Everything you need and none of the bells and whistles that’s going to increase your parts cost. 2nd ram I’ve owned, first 2500. Buy this truck. This model. You want fancy steering wheel warmers, drive your wife’s car. If you want a tool in the shed that will tote the mail and make your voice deeper when you talk, drive this.
It’s not a mega cab like it was advertised to be.
A bedliner would have been nice for the price paid. The truck is well appointed
This truck was a Great value! The price was under every other one I had searched for and found. It also had better features than the others I found.
