Might be time to change: Ram 2500

Was into the local Dodge dealer today to pick up a couple of filters and my favourite salesman was bending my ear on the latest Ram 2500 with the gas engine. By the time the ink dries it's the same payment for 2 extra years and when I need a truck it's a truck. same mileage going down the highway.
I don't do any off-road work with the gladiator, have quads for that.

Guess Jeep wasn't your thing.

Ram 2500....a very nice, very capable, very versatile asset of a vehicle...and completely boring : (

I wanna go the same route 🫣 absolutely no need for a 2500 but a regular cab long bed with some options sounds pretty nice for me.

Hoping to go through the summer at least with the Jeep and go from there. Some issues have turned me away from the Jeep. Should’ve never lifted it or gone 37s

You can always go back. I have a friend who would probably agree with you.

My FIL has a 2500 with a Cummins from exactly one year model before they added all the DEF and whatever else modern emissions stuff they have. Half the time when he goes to home depot, tractor supply, or whatever other similar place, he gets someone asking if he wants to sell it.

Somebody lied to you.

My father had a 2025 Ram 2500 6.4L. It averaged 10-13 MPG. It was so bad he ended up ditching it already and went back to a diesel truck.

Then recently TFL on YouTube has been testing a brand new Ram 2500 6.4L truck. They saw a hand calculated 14 MPG on a purely interstate trip(!).

The fuel economy on the Hemi is atrocious....which is sad when you consider they saddled it with cylinder deactivation.

But yes, if you need to haul 3,000 lbs. in the bed or tow 15,000 lbs. down the road, the Ram 2500 will certainly do the job better than the Gladiator.

The ghost of gas mileage past.
