I love the RAM 2500 and 3500..I've had them both and have the 2500 now. I would never own another F-150 or 1500 gas burning truck..bad idea.

bill Freak of Nature Joined: Jan 2005 Posts: 23,919 Clarksville, TN /Greenville, ...	Originally Posted by dave260rem! Ram makes ram. Rams break just like fords chevys nissans and.....toyota tundras. Fiat says they own the name and the manufacturing facilities that Ram trucks are made in. Consumer Reports says they are the least reliable brand among auto manufacturers so it appears they break more than the others. To alleviate concerns that CR is biased, the 2019 Tundra is number 5 in least reliable trucks. Ram takes the top 3 spots in lowest reliability with their 3500, 2500 and 1500 coming in 3rd 2nd and 1st, respectively. This is Toyota's first year on the list. Ram has been on it every year since Fiat took over, I believe. "Political debate: when charlatans come together to discuss their principles" - Bauvard

Publications like Motor Trend get the new models well before they come to market, for testing purposes. Consumer Reports does long term testing before rating, unless otherwise specified.
