Thank you for this video review. The KING pickup truck of all pickup trucks. 💪🏾 The RAM 1500 has been the first ever dream vehicle that I ever wanted back in 2004 when I was in 10th grade. And of course, it still is. With how RAM has grown so greatly throughout the years I have to say that now has never been a better time for me to get my childhood dream truck 😍.
@@ageckomiller thanks to the regulations. You Americans think that it's ok that you're the only nation that is ok with blowing more than 18l/100km / 13mpg on average outta there car. I do like the sound of a V8 but I'm not ok that you do it in a big truck like this RAM 1500 which should has a diesel in it..and also that you're the only one that can do it. Some car makers in Europe can't even sell their reliable plain jane 1.2l 75hp engine anymore because of the regulations and swapped it out for a new unreliable 1.0 3-cylinder turbo engine which proabably just lasts 8 years or so and you have no problem buying a new 5.7l V8 in a Pick-Up Truck fking ludacris And now you're crying because there's a possability that you have to buy 4.7 V8 gasoline engines in the future because the manufacturers got rid of their old 5.7l units.. damn what a "versatile" country
Just not thinking about the planet and the whole environment, not worrying about fuel prices in Germany for a moment: This car looks cool, and the engine sound is the a very beautiful symphony.
My 2013 Ram 1500 express 2wd had the 395hp Hemi and it was electronically limited to 117 MPH. But I could tell it had a lot more left because it still had another gear before the pedal went dead.
I did exaust , Cold air intake , and a superchips program they had to upload before it would take program. Single cab I was about 500hp at flywheel ran a 13.1 in 1/4. I used octane boost in every other tank
just bought a ram 2022 sport all black, i never knew what the hemi was about all this time, but now i do and its wonderful to feel the horse power and the sound of the v8 is aaaaawesome
I own a 2021 Ram 1500 etorque 5.7. If I was stationed in Germany again with the Ram I would be pushing it to its limits on the Autobahn. I was stationed in Bamberg from 87-90 and had a '79 BMW 525 that a ammo carrier track totalled. Then got a 4 banger Opel. The ZF transmission and the 5.7 Hemi combo is perfect for the Autobahn
I have almost 350,000 miles on my ram and I cannot fathom driving 120 miles per hour down the freeway if mine could even go that fast (which I doubt) let alone having it sit steady at 5,000 rpm. Kudos to you
@@Pantheroful damn so my trucks must be magical beings from a different dimension since I have done all of those...2015 duramax 6.6 turbo big dick diesel 2500hd Silverado, 04/14/20 model year tundras 4.6 v8 & 5.7 dohc v8, 19 ford f150, I drove a 12,000+ pound 6 wheel ford 550 dump truck at 90 mph...felt quite stable for what it it...
@@reyfuentes4572 the trucks you have driven don't seem to be magical at all. The thing with physics Rey is that everything that moves would naturally enjoy continuing to move in one direction at the same speed. Where physics really gets interesting is what happens when you want to slow it down or change the object's direction. If the truck stays on the road when you start to do those things, given that your name isn't Harry Potter, I can guarantee that it wasn't magic that kept you there.
I agree... This is a bit daring... any emergency situation or slight miscalculation can end in a Very Bad Day!!! A vehicle this big and this heavy going that fast... DANGEROUS!!! But i Liked it... as long as you are doing it... when i am not on the road... and i am not a passenger... lol
118 MPH is not bad for this big girl! I love the way this truck puts power down. My dad has one of these and it makes great G-force when he goes full throttle from time to time. It’s a 2020 1500 Bighorn with the same 5.7 Hemi this one has.
107 MPH due to limiter. However when you remove it, it'll do 159 mph or 255k km/h. They need to add the limiter for safety reasons. Simple enough to get rid of.
LenzPhotography Highly frowned upon to not use signals. Same for riding the left lane unless passing. FCA has an electronic governor that limits top speed to 149mph for most models. Seeing how the truck isn’t as aerodynamic as most cars, 149mph for an unmodified truck that weight over 5,000 pounds is fast enough.
@@crankychris2 Did you even view the video? The indicated speed was 195kph, and for those challenged by the metric system, that works out to 121mph. In closing, get educated. Real isn't working for you.
I always drove german cars and right now i own a 1500 2022 for 8 months here in Europe (with lpg tank) and i am really impressed! Love the comfort, the space, the sound, the v8,... On gas i drive 500-600km with 1 LPG tank. Which i think is cheap. Love this car... Dont want anything else at the moment
As a American I find it hilarious how so many europeans in these comments think that this truck is massive. In the United States this is considered a midsize truck 😂
Thx for the nice vid. Dodge RAM is my favourite car since I was 6 years old and I finally get mine in February (even though everyone says that it's strange to see a girl in such a huge "monster"😅 )! It's kinda hard to get one for a decent price in Germany - especially when you rather like the more classical style of the 2015/16 Laramie. Another problem is that most of the imported second hand US cars are "total losses" from crashes or flood damage in America. They are also usually blocked at a certain speed here, so they can't run faster than about 175 to 195 km/h due to safety issues and weight, at least that's what I've been told. Most people use them with LPG instead of fuel which is way cheaper. You should also prefer an 8 speed automatic transmission instead of the 6 speed cause it has a better handling and it's more energy efficient.
@@fbiagentmiyakohoshino8223 1. Your way of approaching people sounds aggressive like someone having to compare "d..s" - which rather sounds like a boastful male rooster than a cultivated female. 2. Did I ever say that I'm the only girl driving an American truck? I also talked about GERMANY - those trucks are still rarely seen here or became more common just in recent years. So it's not a normal sight to see one around let alone with a female driver. It might be normal in the US or elsewhere, but that wasn't what I was referring to. The prices are also very different for an imported car. I'm also going to Disneyland next week which doesn't mean that there aren't others doing the same! No need to forcefully mention and emphasize something like that cause I never claimed it to be different... 🙄
@@syroleelane2794 Congrats on your Ram and I'm glad to hear that you like it. I sold my 2011 Ram 2500 diesel this past September. I loved the truck, but the road salt starts to take a toll. Going with a Ford this time around since Ram dually pickups look a little strange.
@@rich7447 I try to use it in Winter as less as possible and got 2 other cars for that (one being a simple VW Golf). My big baby is safe in the garage from the salt. I know that every man would shake his head on that due to the fact that it's a truck for heavy work, but as a female I don't use it often for that and see it rather like others would treat their sports car. ☺️
@@syroleelane2794 I had the opposite problem when I had a 1500. It got worked harder than it was supposed to be and needed a new rear suspension. Even the 2500 was undersized, but I have a pair of big trailers. The F450 should fix that problem.
With the Hemi 5.7 the RAM is the best looking best sounding best riding best truck period on the road since 2009...to bad they changed the analog gauges to all digital it just takes from some of the sexiness of the gorgeous interior IMO...I'm on my 2nd one since 09 and soon will be buying my 3rd one before they get rid of that beautiful and reliable Hemi engine...I put crazy miles on my vehicles and never had any issues that would even be worth mentioning with either one.
My 3L Ecodiesel also hits factory speed limiter at 117 mph/ 195 kph. It's done for the speed rating of the tires. Obviously they haver power to go much faster. Even the Ecodiesel will get to that speed quickly. My older "tuned" hemi Ram would hit 160 mph.
@@cjnthn weird, is it a rebel? If not I can’t imagine why were all getting different factory governed speeds. Seeing people say 107, 112, 120-124. Maybe I need to test mine going down hill 😂
@@JackPecker911 My 2013 1500 does about 15/16 city (depending on the city) and 17 highway (cruising speed 80+). It takes a lot of throttle control or mods to do much better than that.
It's been RAM since 2013 technically, but for some reason if you register your RAM in Europe, it'll still say Dodge on the registration, and they'll forever be known as a 'Dodge' because the other Dodges (Durango, Charger, ... to a lesser extent Challenger) are actually pretty uncommon, unlike the Ram.
I have a '15 5.7L Hemi Big Horn and my lord I can really feel the gas gauge slowly depleted with this run. It feels great just punching it but wow that needle can move so fast when you're not paying attention. I average 17mpg with how I control my throttle since I travel about 40mi a day to my university and it's slowly getting over 17 into 17.5. The most I ever got it was about 21mpg and that was from a long road trip lasting about 500mi. I got the tank to last but fuck hearing how you ran it, I can only imagine it's in the low 10s
I have an 05 ram 1500 5.7 hemi single cab and I get about 8mpg with the sport tune or 12mpg with it switched to the eco tune... I put in about $80 in it every other day. Not my best financial decision
The more gas my engine uses the better...the quicker the Oil is used up...that must be an American thing... My car gets me from A to B ...doing about 27mpg...but what do I know...
That’s an average sized truck in the US. Small cars are awesome for everyday close to home driving but when criss crossing a continent like North America a big truck with a tall seating position is so much more manageable. The comfort level,of these trucks makes 1000 mile journeys feel like popping out to the supermarket to get a gallon of milk. Its pure luxury and they almost drive themselves.
My 6700 lb, 2015 tops out (limited) at 105 MPH, but it will run there all day long, until the gas runs low. Nothing will put a stupid grin on your face faster than a Hemi on a cold morning. Wife’s 2009 Journey would run 191kph from Spang to Wittlich on the A60. Germany was such a fun place to drive.
@@britishsecretagent0078 also for a truck the size of a hours I'm sure that's more than enough speed. The engine can go much faster but I don't think it's a smart idea lol
I'm surprised it only went 196 kmh. My RAM is limited to about 170 kmh and it feels like there would be a lot more than that available. I bet you surprised a lot of people with a truck.
Electronically limited speed. There's tubes where you can disable it but that's a death wish. The suspension and aerodynamics aren't setup for it. So the tires are not rated for those speeds
@@DaDaDo661 yes but isn't he driving a truck that he removed the speed limiter? My point was that it only went 26 kph faster than my electronically limited truck. I thought it would be faster than that.
Dang yours over there in Europe go faster then the US ones that are limited. 114mph is the fastest my 2020 Laramie sport has been able to produce on the dash read out. Been looking for a long sweeping downhill to try and get it up a little more.
@@richardbillingsjr.9829 I'm sure we can chip them and make them faster. I like when we are going 80 with no one around and a sports car with act like they are going to go faster and we dust them for miles. Just need about another 20 mph. Escort radars are life.
The pcm on the new ones is locked. We would have to take it off and send it in to get it unlocked as there are no new ones available to purchase. Then 140 is the new limit.
@@Aleksmbre is no matter if is slow or fast maybe he like the truck 🛻 and he want to see the top speed I actually is not slow the top speed of the X350d is 205kmh and 0-100KMH about 7.9 second that was not slow for a big truck
So this one is tuned with no speed limiter, I can't wait to do it to my 2019 and mod mine like I've done to all my other ram trucks. My 2019 is very nice to drive and the way it handles over the 4th gen I love it, especially at speeds
There is a trick to override governor, I'm not sure what years, but mine is a 2018 HEMI Bighorn set a 106MPH, if u hold the key in start position you lose the speedometer but it cuts off the governor. I'm not sure how true it is but I heard its capable of 150MPH+. I know it gets to 106 really fast, I can only imagine a Hemi Ram base model with a HEMI, I heard they hit 0-60 in about 4.9, mines slower than that, but Bighorn = 5300lbs
I've got a 2011 ST, stage 2 comp cam, pushrods, hellcat lifters, long tubes, and Jay Green tune, 180,000 miles, Stock 545rfe Trans, 4-wheel drive, and crew cab. It is no joke and it pulls so hard in the top end. Shifts at 6400 and don't stop pulling. The fastest I ever went is 138mph and I was afraid the hood was going to fly off, still had another gear.

I'm personally running a 19 Laramie 1500 and can attest. Have mine tuned up to 440hp. The acceleration that the hemi engines put out is ridiculous
Can I ask you about your tuning process? What did you get done / how much did it cost?

The RAM 1500 has been the first ever dream vehicle that I ever wanted back in 2004 when I was in 10th grade. And of course, it still is. With how RAM has grown so greatly throughout the years I have to say that now has never been a better time for me to get my childhood dream truck 😍.
bring a large check...I'm on my 5th.
You do know that the 1500 isn't even the top spec Ram right? The HDs are far more capable.
194 kp/h. Or as we in Germany say: Langsam
Relativ. Gefühlte 250 schätze ich mal. 250 in einem RS6 fühlt sich wiederum langsam an.
It obviously has plenty more to go, it’s electronically limited lol.
I looked it up. For my fellow American comrades. He was doin 124mph which is *blisteringly fast* for that big of a truck

@@ageckomiller thanks to the regulations. You Americans think that it's ok that you're the only nation that is ok with blowing more than 18l/100km / 13mpg on average outta there car.
I do like the sound of a V8 but I'm not ok that you do it in a big truck like this RAM 1500 which should has a diesel in it..and also that you're the only one that can do it.
Some car makers in Europe can't even sell their reliable plain jane 1.2l 75hp engine anymore because of the regulations and swapped it out for a new unreliable 1.0 3-cylinder turbo engine which proabably just lasts 8 years or so and you have no problem buying a new 5.7l V8 in a Pick-Up Truck fking ludacris
And now you're crying because there's a possability that you have to buy 4.7 V8 gasoline engines in the future because the manufacturers got rid of their old 5.7l units..

My 2013 Ram 1500 express 2wd had the 395hp Hemi and it was electronically limited to 117 MPH. But I could tell it had a lot more left because it still had another gear before the pedal went dead.
I did exaust , Cold air intake , and a superchips program they had to upload before it would take program.
Single cab I was about 500hp at flywheel ran a 13.1 in 1/4.

I had a 13 single cab and removed the limiter after i cammed it. Got 156 before i let out.
That escalated quickly 🤙🤣🤣
just bought a ram 2022 sport all black, i never knew what the hemi was about all this time, but now i do and its wonderful to feel the horse power and the sound of the v8 is aaaaawesome
I own a 2021 Ram 1500 etorque 5.7. If I was stationed in Germany again with the Ram I would be pushing it to its limits on the Autobahn. I was stationed in Bamberg from 87-90 and had a '79 BMW 525 that a ammo carrier track totalled. Then got a 4 banger Opel. The ZF transmission and the 5.7 Hemi combo is perfect for the Autobahn

Highly frowned upon to not use signals. Same for riding the left lane unless passing.

Thx for the nice vid. Dodge RAM is my favourite car since I was 6 years old and I finally get mine in February (even though everyone says that it's strange to see a girl in such a huge "monster"😅 )! It's kinda hard to get one for a decent price in Germany - especially when you rather like the more classical style of the 2015/16 Laramie. Another problem is that most of the imported second hand US cars are "total losses" from crashes or flood damage in America. They are also usually blocked at a certain speed here, so they can't run faster than about 175 to 195 km/h due to safety issues and weight, at least that's what I've been told. Most people use them with LPG instead of fuel which is way cheaper. You should also prefer an 8 speed automatic transmission instead of the 6 speed cause it has a better handling and it's more energy efficient.

@@fbiagentmiyakohoshino8223 1. Your way of approaching people sounds aggressive like someone having to compare "d..s" - which rather sounds like a boastful male rooster than a cultivated female. 2. Did I ever say that I'm the only girl driving an American truck? I also talked about GERMANY - those trucks are still rarely seen here or became more common just in recent years. So it's not a normal sight to see one around let alone with a female driver. It might be normal in the US or elsewhere, but that wasn't what I was referring to.

I have an 05 ram 1500 5.7 hemi single cab and I get about 8mpg with the sport tune or 12mpg with it switched to the eco tune... I put in about $80 in it every other day. Not my best financial decision
The more gas my engine uses the better...the quicker the Oil is used up...that must be an American thing...
My car gets me from A to B ...doing about 27mpg...but what do I know...
That’s an average sized truck in the US. Small cars are awesome for everyday close to home driving but when criss crossing a continent like North America a big truck with a tall seating position is so much more manageable. The comfort level,of these trucks makes 1000 mile journeys feel like popping out to the supermarket to get a gallon of milk. Its pure luxury and they almost drive themselves.
My 6700 lb, 2015 tops out (limited) at 105 MPH, but it will run there all day long, until the gas runs low. Nothing will put a stupid grin on your face faster than a Hemi on a cold morning. Wife’s 2009 Journey would run 191kph from Spang to Wittlich on the A60. Germany was such a fun place to drive.
