I follow pretty much all the TFL channels; this - by far is the best interview style. Incredibly informative regarding tech, features and driving experience while always controlling the interview in such a positive manner as to always illicit the highest quality replies from the interviewee. Super Solid.
Rod Romain has done a great job leading the HD pickup team for Ram. Ford used to be the truck to beat, and all of the big 3 make a good truck. The look on his face about the manual said it all. They hear the gripes but the numbers didn't support it (and the G56 really should've been a G85 for the GCW). The Ram team is making good engineering and economic decisions for the brand.
I have a 07’ mega cab 6.7 Cummins with a G/56 6speed only has 71k miles on it I would sell it to you for less than 42k$ and it’s got a ton of goodies done to it
All these 6 speed diesels and I'm running a 1985 f250 with 7.6 gas motor and 4+2 fully synchronized trans with synchronized high on the auxiliary, lulz
That is huge when you can step outside of your truck after driving up to 11 hours a day and not be tired. Well done Ram. They do need to bring back the manual transmission.
looks like they nailed the driver comfort even more. My "old" 2015 Ram 2500 Megacab is a dream to go cruise down roads all day with. I've taken mine across country doing 30-35hr drives nonstop during winter and going at 75-85mph... It is just a joy to drive around, love the sweet spot at 30-40mph when it shifts into the next gear,drops down to like 1300rpms and that gradually increasing rumble of the engine makes you smile... The truck really does leave you with much less fatigue than other trucks. Truck barely notices sideways winds, very quiet inside the cab even with the wonderful engine noise of the Cummins. I know they haven't tested it, but i would imagine its still gets the best mpg when compared to Ford and Chevy

I think it’s terrible car manufacturers make you pay for premium headlights. IMO that’s a safety feature that customers shouldn’t have to pay for a top trim package to get the best equipment to be able to see at night.
I absolutely agree that safety features on a truck should not be tied to luxury packages. My truck would have been configured much differently if the better headlights were an option across the entire line of trims.
Jarred Eckman Had one headlight go out on my ltz silverado with led package. just before bumper to bumper ran out $1400. I think I'll stick with the generic h11 for $2.50 that come in the ram hd I have now.
That's why they're premium headlights, you pay a premium for them. The LEDs look fancy but they aren't a safety requirement. Normal halogen headlights work fine. A base model truck doesn't need laser beams that see into the future and cost over $1000 each to replace.
@@balreadysaid One reason why when I bought my f150 I didnt want the higher trim because of the led stuff. I like the looks and everything but I would hate to replace anything if and when it would have worn out. Only thing I might do is look at diode dynamics led bulbs but still those are $150 for a pair. Ive seen some in person and they look normal in a halogen housing.
@@MoonyJohn hell just go on ebay and you can order aftermarket LED headlights for much much cheaper than OEM ones, plus you can get them to match your truck better than just regular headlights

im a Ford Toyoya, Chevy guy but this truck is a freakin beast! wow...of course i love the fact it has a Cummins backed by an Aisin with a Dana rear and the heavy duty trucks are all made in Warren Michigan
had a 89 f150 with 2,600lbs of feed in the bed, but it only squatted a little bit. Then it was on the bump stops lol. The ol I6 and granny 4 pulled it fine though.
Finally, someone one TH-cam knows how to properly chain/strap the load onto a trailer. It bugs me every time I see someone running the chains and/or straps on the outside of the rub rails. Was also happy to see that the hooks on the chain was hooked back to the chain itself and not hooked to the frame or the rub rail pockets. Good job guys! On another note! Finally a Dodge that I am completely impressed with inside and out. Before it was just the interior. Looks like a great overall package.
Towing heavy loads is not about how fast you can pull a load but how safely and at times that does require some power to get out of the way which this truck has. As far as competing trucks these days. Every truck out there is a good vehicle it really comes down to preference
My dad had a 2002 dodge 3500 1ton and he was pulling about 25,000 to 30,000lbs over a mountain road. All of a sudden the trailer breaks give out going downhill and it spun that old dually into the gully like nobody's business.
OilTheGun Smooth Everything was okay, his truck was still drivable (kinda) and luckily the trailer didn't topple over but it was a mess to clean up. It took a pretty big tractor to get it out the gully.
It's nice that car\truck manufacturers are putting effort into design and structure, rather than focusing on cost reduction. Engineering vs. Accounting. Frucking Good Times! TFL: would you agree?
I drive an International 9200 daily, 1.1 million miles, 27,000 hours, and rides great, it's a 2003! I'm used to 1650 ft lbs torque, if you 1000 lbs lbs in a 3500hd, won't that require a CDL, asking for a friend. I use torque, most just talk about torque, big difference! All the best. Kevin
They purposefully said the Ram 3500 towing capacity was 35,100 pounds because it would be 100 more than the Super Duty, which can most likely tow 35,100 pounds.
Well, yeah. The super duty can tow 35,100 pounds, and the ram could tow 35,200, and then the super duty could tow 35,300, so on and so on. It's like the expiration date on your gallon of milk in the fridge. Just because it says it goes bad tomorrow doesnt mean itll instantly go sour at midnight, same logic here.
Trucks shouldn't be quiet... You definitely don't spend enough hours driving one cross country for days on end. Sometimes I get migraines from noise and vibration. The less noise the better. I can't wait for electric trucks to become mainstream and self driving so I can be comfortable. Anyone who uses trucks the way they were meant to be used will say the same thing.
He’s counter vibrating the cab to cancel road vibrations. Love that part when the designer can’t even reference the technology. By the way I think it’s harmonics they are canceling out
It would be cheaper and more reliable. At this point, 3/4 and 1 ton trucks are well into CDL territory already and the numbers war is just a weenie-measuring contest and marketing.
Great video and I am really glad to see Elmer taking a bigger role, but Mr. Truck really needed to be behind the wheel talking about that load and some of the "non-driving impression" details of the truck.
So many are impressed by large numbers but I like that Steve pointed out the volume Bighorn 2500 at 1675lbs payload. The guys buying these volume Cummins trucks for huge numbers are in for a reality check. Know what you're getting in to before shelling out money for a HD truck that has the payload of a half ton. EDIT: Just going to add that this isn't just a Ram thing but all 2500 models can use up their rating quickly espcially with a diesel. Most buyers look at the tow rating and call it a day without understanding GVW.
1000lbs is a half ton. Now mid size trucks are half tons. and half tons trucks are 3/4 ton trucks. and 3/4 tons are 1 tons now. My Cummins 2500 big horn has 2200 payload. Options optional. 😎
Not gonna lie, I am in love with that black single cab. Looks absolutely mean! What used to be so common has now become so strange and foreign to people, I would love to own one some day
#TruckWars #GetSome It's cool to see the big boss out with you guys! Disappointing to see that the full power model doesn't cover the full range of their HD truck line though.
@@jasondonohue7355 The regular cab is still coming out to 1500. Just taking longer. They said a year later, it's been almost a year since launch of 2019 Rams
Jose Lerma stop lying bitch. You know damn well that’s not what u meant idiot. Stop trying to cover up the fact that you live in ur mommy’s basement and don’t get out much.
Everyone is goin on about how bouncy or rough the ride is, has anyone actually been in commercial truck there not clouds goin down the road, and not sure of the road they were on but most interstates aren't perfectly smooth, and everyone complaining about no manual transmission, they have gear selectors, which on a hill let you pick a gear and stay in it, which is the whole point of a manual, people are just looking for something to b$#&ch about
If you tow an average of 26,000lbs regularly then these trucks would be a good alternative to a semi. Any thing over that for safety, longevity and capability stick to a semi. As you see here for towing a backhoe or similar equipment, vehicles or shipping containers, these trucks serve well, only time will tell if hauling over 30,000lbs regularly with these trucks will hold up. My opinion being a cdl A holder for 20+years, nothing is more capable or safer hauling heavy loads then a class 7, 8 truck. If you wanna throw away $50 grand every 5 years, a predicted lifespan of these trucks hauling that weight constantly before serious repair is needed, even semis need expensive repair after a few years of abuse over these poor constructed roads across the US. I own a 2017 F350 dually it has 46,000 miles no issues yet and tows 20,000lbs regularly but only time will tell on this one too. Once these trucks reach 150,000 miles they start to break down. My advice if you go this route, get the extended warranty, with maintenance package and get rid of after they expire.
And the price difference, we just got a par of stumpy KW T-300s with an 8 liter engine and 6 speed Alison, they were under $60k. And that is with headache rack, tool boxes and expensive LED amber light bars. Air ride suppression and seats.
I have a 2018 ram 5500 I haul a 36' trailer and run heavy equipment all day this thing kicks ass I've even pulled it out of job sites a foot in mud with an excavator on the back no problem
'..., with maintenance package and get rid of after they expire. you can say the same for any machine that is worked hard Mojo. We use these size vehicles when a general purpose work truck is better than the semi approach for work site access and utility. Some places we work have restricted access for semi's and that isn't as much a problem with a
@@pensive69 I concur, I was generalizing, as most people complain about expensive repairs and think just because you paid $70 grand on a truck they won't break down, so rule of thumb is rotate your fleet every 5-10 years, of course it's nice when a good made truck last much longer than that, but when you have a big fleet or working one truck hard it's probably more likely then not your gonna have expensive repairs, which depending on the truck, is cheaper to repair then replace. I've just have had and seen happen very often these trucks including Big rigs need in my opinion too early or at all repair.
@@davidharris9259 google horsepower and torque fanboy. Sure It will go uphill but how fast? We'll see if it will go over 20 mph up the Ike GAUNTLET! Even a Toyota Tundra can pull the Space Shuttle across flat ground. We'll see
I'm tired of hearing about the Ike gauntlet BS. A very, very tiny percent of the population of truck owners will ever tow over that stretch of highway. And an even smaller percentage of that towing at anything close to max loads. It's just a BS dick-swinging contest...
What a great video. I laughed at your comment about how us Californians complain when it’s 50° out. The same way the rest of the U.S. complains (Phoenix excluded) when it’s 95° and we in the Death Valley are sitting at 110-115 all day long. As far as HD trucks going the way of auto transmissions vs manual. I think it has to do more with these Truck Manufacturers trying to reach the masses and making it simpler to step into a truck like this & drive it vs having to worry if someone knows how to drive stick or not. Also it’s one less thing drivers have to worry about or deal with when towing. One last thing aren’t semi trucks and big rigs for the most part still using a manual transmission or a form of it as in the automated manual transmission? Again great video! ✌🏽
I would like to see a scale ticket with the weights. It's not that I don't beleive you, I just want to see what you are running on each individual axle with that load configeration.
William Stewart ,,,,,,,the track hoe is an 80 so that’s 8 metric tons not counting the added weight of the thumb, long arm, bucket, fuel, etc. etc. FYI- a metric ton is 2,204 lbs so without its add ons the 8 metric ton hoe alone weighs 17,632 lbs.
Mike PDX your not putting 10k on the truck bc of the trailer isn’t actually being put directly on the truck.. that load isn’t more than 30-31k Wonder if he’s got a CDL but I’m glad they secured the hell outta that load tho
Who was in charge of strapping down those pallets and didn’t know enough to twist the strap? That alone will put more vibration and noise back into the truck. Beginner’s mistake.
They keep bragging about headlights that turn when you turn. I want my headlights to adjust for suspension squat, like Land Rover has for the last 15+ years.
Dont take this wrong as I own a Cummins. Its not hard to hit 1k tq in any of the big 3 with just basic add ons. Look back even at the 5.9, lbz, 6.4, etc. And how many actually need it?
Haha yeah, the majority of people buying these are the "I need uh deezel" crowd that'll put a "leveling kit" on it and maybe pull a small trailer a couple of times per year and maybe they go to Home Depot each Spring for a few bags of fertilizer.
I just saw the chevy rated tow at 35.5 with less torque than this dodge. Now at what grade will these trucks choke or have problems towing their max load and how much speed will they loose before the trany gets hot.
I always laugh reading these comments. “We want a manual” lol nobody wants a manual anymore besides those clinging to old tech. “We don’t need that much fancy new tech in HD trucks” bull, you drive one of these trucks around and you’ll be thankful and love that new tech. People just love to point out what they see as flaws and complain.
I’m still a manual guy in regards to sports cars but the autos in trucks nowadays are a must have. The days of the crappy 4 speed auto are gone. I test drove a 14 Cummins with the manual and it was a slug compared to the auto. I didn’t think twice and bought the auto.
Drive one of these new trucks with all of the tech and try NOT to think about how all of that junk is going to be broken in 10-15 years. I don't want to have to use a touchscreen to adjust my HVAC, that screen and everything that it controls is also subject to software failure, which can brick that entire center stack and every function it controls. I bought an older (2004) truck to get the manual transmission, knobs for the HVAC, and an overall more durable truck that has less excess junk to go wrong. It should be a truck, not a man sedan.
So... the 2500 Cummins has all the same upgrades to the engine as the 3500 high output but is just detuned? Like... grafite block, hydraulic lifters, cam shaft, pistons and turbo?
Can’t say about Ford as they’ve not released their update yet. The soon to be released Chevy HD also tows over 30k lbs with 45 more HP and only 90 Lb Ft less torque and a 10 spd Allison ( Allison’s version of the GM/Ford 10 spd) Dodge is still using the Japanese Aisin which is 30% owned by Toyota and the rest Aisin making it 100% Japanese.
Am I missing something he says it's 35000 Max Towing and the trailer is 35000 lb what about the weight of the truck and the weight of the two guys inside that means they'll be over 35000 lb and not legal to drive on the road correct me if I'm wrong
backvic Towing weight is the trailer weight. You're thinking Gross Combined Weight Rating (GCWR) which is the max weight of the truck, payload and trailer. I don't think they have reported that information yet but it would be about 45k pounds.
The Dodge HD Head Engineer seems to really know what he is talking about. He comes off as someone who actually tows heavy weight with the trucks he actually designs.
@@jayboy9124 Here in Texas you don't if your truck and trailer are farm tagged and you're hauling farm materials/equipment within 150 miles of your farm. Legal up to 48,000lbs gross weight I believe.
@@jayboy9124 you guys are right... hills are a BIG problem when towing...i could tow ten thousand pounds with a 4 cylinder tacoma in Texas or other flat state but most of the western states have real hills to deal with...in fact they made a whole new word for them...mountains
It looks like it rides like shit IMO.. I’m an OTR truck driver, and it’s not just confidence that’ll make you “less tired after 11 hours”, the quality of the ride makes a world of difference also.. now I know that this 3500 wasn’t Equipped with the “air ride”, but you can’t sit there and tell me while you’re getting beaten to death that confidence is what makes you less tired after 11 hours... I’d like to see him drive that truck for 11 hours, and see how he feels...
If you've ever traveled the Grapevine using the truck lanes you'd know that the pavement is beat all to heck. The CA I5 over the Grapevine is absolutely one of the most used highways in America. Doesn't make any difference what type suspension your rig has, unless you have air ride seats, expect to get beat up. What is significant in this video is not how much belly jiggle was observed, but how effortless it was to control that tow set up over such a rough stretch of interstate.
Kenneth Thorkveen (smash bam wobble) "Oh the ride..." (jiggle bang jiggle jiggle) "...it's just wonderful! I feel (shake jiggle pop bam) so confident" (jiggle crash wobble) lol
To the two goofs above me; you cannot sit there and tell me that the camera doesn’t show them being absolutely manhandled by the extremely stiff suspension. Compare that stretch of road to their other gauntlet videos with the GM/Ford trucks. The Ram clearly rides the worst.
I honestly don’t understand how Ram 3500s are so popular when they seem to always show show up at the very bottom of Consumer Reports’ reliability charts. Anybody have some insight?
All the diesel trucks since 2007 have taken a pretty good nose dive in terms of reliability and cost of ownership. The emissions crap, DPF/cat converter, the urea injection, all that stuff is extremely expensive when it breaks, most guys end up removing it and getting an aftermarket tune when it gives them problems(sucks if you live where they emissions test though). Although I tend to think that you're going to have much better service with a new 2019 diesel truck vs it being 2009 and you buying a new diesel truck then. Those first few years of the new emissions standards, the big 3 hadn't worked out all the kinks yet and Ford was still selling that POS Navistar diesel in their trucks(6.0 and 6.2 Powerstroke)
How did Temps look when pulling that grade with the foot on the floor? Does the engine derate under extreme loads? How does it manage temperatures when it's max load like that?
Then Chevy will do 1,010, then Ford will knock them out of the park with 1,020. Whether or not they even change the tune doesn't matter, they just give the marketing guys a pen and set them to work.
Does anyone know the length or the grade of the hill they were climbing? I know where it is, I don't know how long or the grade. That truck was humping that load up the hill, the Cummins and the Aisin are a beast combination. What concerned me was the braking and I don't see how you can take weight out of the truck, add capacity and not have controllability problems, even with bigger brakes and a more rigid frame. I think the confidence would only come to a competent driver operating within the limits of the truck, how many of those people do you think are behind the wheel of dually's pulling 5th wheel RVs? It seems like Ford and Ram own this heavy duty heavy towing segment, I don't see too many GMs, am curious how they will respond.
All this torque doesn't do much when you don't get it all till 4th gear. I had a 2016 Ram 3500 High Output sold it because it was a death trap if tried to cross a busy highway it would crawl across because of torque management and you would almost get hit. Also come on Ram you can't even brag about 1,000 lbs. of class leading tq. when you can only get it in a 3500 and have to pay a extra $2,500 for it bring total cost to $11,950. Ford and GM both have more power in the 2500 segment which most people buy for way less cost for a diesel.
Sly Ny you obviously had the 3:42 gears. You should have gotten the 4:10 ratio. The 4:10's don't do what you explained. Big difference in the gear choices. You don't need to slam Ram because you don't know shit about gearing. Should have ordered your truck correctly.
@@55afishead Sorry Mike H. you can only get 4.10 gears in a dully. YOU don't know shit. It was such a problem the dealer had engineers from chrysler there for 2 day looking at it.

Finally, someone one TH-cam knows how to properly chain/strap the load onto a trailer. It bugs me every time I see someone running the chains and/or straps on the outside of the rub rails. Was also happy to see that the hooks on the chain was hooked back to the chain itself and not hooked to the frame or the rub rail pockets. Good job guys!
On another note!
Finally a Dodge that I am completely impressed with inside and out. Before it was just the interior. Looks like a great overall package.
That engine sounds healthy, but MEANNNN I love it
Very good interviewer. Good group of guys at TFL. Really enjoy all your videos.
Towing heavy loads is not about how fast you can pull a load but how safely and at times that does require some power to get out of the way which this truck has. As far as competing trucks these days. Every truck out there is a good vehicle it really comes down to preference
My dad had a 2002 dodge 3500 1ton and he was pulling about 25,000 to 30,000lbs over a mountain road. All of a sudden the trailer breaks give out going downhill and it spun that old dually into the gully like nobody's business.
I'd like to see what would happen if you had 35,000 lbs behind this truck going down the IKE and the trailer brakes failed.
William Stewart that's what the engine brake is for,I go down mountains with my heavy 5th wheel and never touch the brakes.

Everything was okay, his truck was still drivable (kinda) and luckily the trailer didn't topple over but it was a mess to clean up. It took a pretty big tractor to get it out the gully.
OilTheGun Smooth
He wasn't going but maybe 50mph when he lost control.
I love this new guy at TFL aka Canada Dude. Great speaker and interviewer.

Ike Gauntlet is the true test of any truck! Great job TFL Truck! You guys always hit it out of the park!
It's nice that car\truck manufacturers are putting effort into design and structure, rather than focusing on cost reduction. Engineering vs. Accounting. Frucking Good Times!
TFL: would you agree?
They keep adding tech to cater to suckers. Instead they don't work on fuel economy, it's a joke
I drive an International 9200 daily, 1.1 million miles, 27,000 hours, and rides great, it's a 2003!
I'm used to 1650 ft lbs torque, if you 1000 lbs lbs in a 3500hd, won't that require a CDL, asking for a friend.
I use torque, most just talk about torque, big difference!
All the best.

They purposefully said the Ram 3500 towing capacity was 35,100 pounds because it would be 100 more than the Super Duty, which can most likely tow 35,100 pounds.
Well, yeah. The super duty can tow 35,100 pounds, and the ram could tow 35,200, and then the super duty could tow 35,300, so on and so on. It's like the expiration date on your gallon of milk in the fridge. Just because it says it goes bad tomorrow doesnt mean itll instantly go sour at midnight, same logic here.
The new frontend looks sick!
Sound like it running a 5 inch straight pipe 😂
Right, that cabin is LOUD.
In a good way of course haha. New heavy duty diesel trucks shouldnt be quiet
Trucks shouldn't be quiet... You definitely don't spend enough hours driving one cross country for days on end. Sometimes I get migraines from noise and vibration. The less noise the better. I can't wait for electric trucks to become mainstream and self driving so I can be comfortable. Anyone who uses trucks the way they were meant to be used will say the same thing.
bluesky im a bus diesel mechanic I understand diesel shouldn’t be quite lmao
Working hard, imagine how loud it would be towing 35k with a straight pipe.

So many are impressed by large numbers but I like that Steve pointed out the volume Bighorn 2500 at 1675lbs payload. The guys buying these volume Cummins trucks for huge numbers are in for a reality check. Know what you're getting in to before shelling out money for a HD truck that has the payload of a half ton.
EDIT: Just going to add that this isn't just a Ram thing but all 2500 models can use up their rating quickly espcially with a diesel. Most buyers look at the tow rating and call it a day without understanding GVW.
1000lbs is a half ton. Now mid size trucks are half tons. and half tons trucks are 3/4 ton trucks. and 3/4 tons are 1 tons now. My Cummins 2500 big horn has 2200 payload. Options optional. 😎

Those cummins engines really do pull heavy loads much better than the competitors. They also have much more room to tune them than the others.
Everyone is goin on about how bouncy or rough the ride is, has anyone actually been in commercial truck there not clouds goin down the road, and not sure of the road they were on but most interstates aren't perfectly smooth, and everyone complaining about no manual transmission, they have gear selectors, which on a hill let you pick a gear and stay in it, which is the whole point of a manual, people are just looking for something to b$#&ch about
That all new ram 3500HD I need to say this
!!! IT'S INSANE!!!
If you tow an average of 26,000lbs regularly then these trucks would be a good alternative to a semi. Any thing over that for safety, longevity and capability stick to a semi. As you see here for towing a backhoe or similar equipment, vehicles or shipping containers, these trucks serve well, only time will tell if hauling over 30,000lbs regularly with these trucks will hold up. My opinion being a cdl A holder for 20+years, nothing is more capable or safer hauling heavy loads then a class 7, 8 truck. If you wanna throw away $50 grand every 5 years, a predicted lifespan of these trucks hauling that weight constantly before serious repair is needed, even semis need expensive repair after a few years of abuse over these poor constructed roads across the US. I own a 2017 F350 dually it has 46,000 miles no issues yet and tows 20,000lbs regularly but only time will tell on this one too. Once these trucks reach 150,000 miles they start to break down. My advice if you go this route, get the extended warranty, with maintenance package and get rid of after they expire.
And the price difference, we just got a par of stumpy KW T-300s with an 8 liter engine and 6 speed Alison, they were under $60k. And that is with headache rack, tool boxes and expensive LED amber light bars. Air ride suppression and seats.
I have a 2018 ram 5500 I haul a 36' trailer and run heavy equipment all day this thing kicks ass I've even pulled it out of job sites a foot in mud with an excavator on the back no problem
'..., with maintenance package and get rid of after they expire.
you can say the same for any machine that is worked hard Mojo.
We use these size vehicles when a general purpose work truck is better than
the semi approach for work site access and utility. Some places we work have restricted
access for semi's and that isn't as much a problem with a
@@pensive69 I concur, I was generalizing, as most people complain about expensive repairs and think just because you paid $70 grand on a truck they won't break down, so rule of thumb is rotate your fleet every 5-10 years, of course it's nice when a good made truck last much longer than that, but when you have a big fleet or working one truck hard it's probably more likely then not your gonna have expensive repairs, which depending on the truck, is cheaper to repair then replace. I've just have had and seen happen very often these trucks including Big rigs need in my opinion too early or at all repair.
This ram IS a semi. It literally looks like it😳 and it has 1000 tork. And it way faster than a semi
these guys are being shook to death in this Ram, imagine at the end of the day feeling like sitting in a paint shaker all day lol.

@@davidharris9259 google horsepower and torque fanboy. Sure It will go uphill but how fast? We'll see if it will go over 20 mph up the Ike GAUNTLET! Even a Toyota Tundra can pull the Space Shuttle across flat ground. We'll see
I'm tired of hearing about the Ike gauntlet BS. A very, very tiny percent of the population of truck owners will ever tow over that stretch of highway. And an even smaller percentage of that towing at anything close to max loads. It's just a BS dick-swinging contest...
What a great video. I laughed at your comment about how us Californians complain when it’s 50° out. The same way the rest of the U.S. complains (Phoenix excluded) when it’s 95° and we in the Death Valley are sitting at 110-115 all day long.
As far as HD trucks going the way of auto transmissions vs manual. I think it has to do more with these Truck Manufacturers trying to reach the masses and making it simpler to step into a truck like this & drive it vs having to worry if someone knows how to drive stick or not. Also it’s one less thing drivers have to worry about or deal with when towing.
One last thing aren’t semi trucks and big rigs for the most part still using a manual transmission or a form of it as in the automated manual transmission?
Again great video!

I would like to see a scale ticket with the weights. It's not that I don't beleive you, I just want to see what you are running on each individual axle with that load configeration.
The "operating weight" of that excavator is 19,000 pounds.
That's an 8 ton excavator with a long arm, front blade, and a thumb. You'd be over 20,000lbs alone with just the excavator.
They don't go over the scale because they don't want a ticket for not having a CDL.
William Snyder am sure he has a cdl.
William Stewart ,,,,,,,the track hoe is an 80 so that’s 8 metric tons not counting the added weight of the thumb, long arm, bucket, fuel, etc. etc.
FYI- a metric ton is 2,204 lbs so without its add ons the 8 metric ton hoe alone weighs 17,632 lbs.
Seriously holding down the bucket of that excavator with a little strap lol.
Case CX80C weighs 19k Pallet of cinderblocks is around 3k x 2 6000k =25k Where is other 10k? trailer?
Yes. Trailer is around 10k
Mike PDX your not putting 10k on the truck bc of the trailer isn’t actually being put directly on the truck.. that load isn’t more than 30-31k
Wonder if he’s got a CDL but I’m glad they secured the hell outta that load tho
Great, intelligent, thorough questions!
Who was in charge of strapping down those pallets and didn’t know enough to twist the strap? That alone will put more vibration and noise back into the truck. Beginner’s mistake.

I just saw the chevy rated tow at 35.5 with less torque than this dodge. Now at what grade will these trucks choke or have problems towing their max load and how much speed will they loose before the trany gets hot.
Ford will be 35200 with magic dust as they always do.
Furd
The exhaust brake is awesome even when you’re not towing! Tap the brakes and it’ll hold the speed the whole way down!
I always laugh reading these comments. “We want a manual” lol nobody wants a manual anymore besides those clinging to old tech. “We don’t need that much fancy new tech in HD trucks” bull, you drive one of these trucks around and you’ll be thankful and love that new tech. People just love to point out what they see as flaws and complain.
I’m still a manual guy in regards to sports cars but the autos in trucks nowadays are a must have. The days of the crappy 4 speed auto are gone. I test drove a 14 Cummins with the manual and it was a slug compared to the auto. I didn’t think twice and bought the auto.
Drive one of these new trucks with all of the tech and try NOT to think about how all of that junk is going to be broken in 10-15 years. I don't want to have to use a touchscreen to adjust my HVAC, that screen and everything that it controls is also subject to software failure, which can brick that entire center stack and every function it controls. I bought an older (2004) truck to get the manual transmission, knobs for the HVAC, and an overall more durable truck that has less excess junk to go wrong. It should be a truck, not a man sedan.
So... the 2500 Cummins has all the same upgrades to the engine as the 3500 high output but is just detuned? Like... grafite block, hydraulic lifters, cam shaft, pistons and turbo?
Looks like Ford and Chevy have some catching up to do.....
Dan Hambrick Chevy has a lot of catching up to do. Ford not as much really. 935 Lb.-ft and gooseneck towing rated at 34k payload 7,630 lbs
They’ve been playing that game with dodge since 1914
Atleast they aren't as ugly as this ram
Can’t say about Ford as they’ve not released their update yet. The soon to be released Chevy HD also tows over 30k lbs with 45 more HP and only 90 Lb Ft less torque and a 10 spd Allison ( Allison’s version of the GM/Ford 10 spd) Dodge is still using the Japanese Aisin which is 30% owned by Toyota and the rest Aisin making it 100% Japanese.
@@marioaviles9582 they lie look at dyno tests Cummins
Am I missing something he says it's 35000 Max Towing and the trailer is 35000 lb what about the weight of the truck and the weight of the two guys inside that means they'll be over 35000 lb and not legal to drive on the road correct me if I'm wrong
backvic Towing weight is the trailer weight. You're thinking Gross Combined Weight Rating (GCWR) which is the max weight of the truck, payload and trailer. I don't think they have reported that information yet but it would be about 45k pounds.
Honestly by this point they're all the same to me for the 1 tons. Ram, f350, gmc (not chevy) I'll buy whoever has the best price
The Dodge HD Head Engineer seems to really know what he is talking about. He comes off as someone who actually tows heavy weight with the trucks he actually designs.
I still find it dangerous for average people towing over 21,000 lbs! People should be required to have endorsements on their licenses.
Adam P agreed. On top of it. A standard pickup cannot stop a 35,000lb payload.

It looks like it rides like shit IMO..

I’d like to see him drive that truck for 11 hours, and see how he feels...
If you've ever traveled the Grapevine using the truck lanes you'd know that the pavement is beat all to heck. The CA I5 over the Grapevine is absolutely one of the most used highways in America. Doesn't make any difference what type suspension your rig has, unless you have air ride seats, expect to get beat up. What is significant in this video is not how much belly jiggle was observed, but how effortless it was to control that tow set up over such a rough stretch of interstate.

Loved the trucks. Sounded like a hockey player interview somewhere in Ontario.....
I honestly don’t understand how Ram 3500s are so popular when they seem to always show show up at the very bottom of Consumer Reports’ reliability charts. Anybody have some insight?
All the diesel trucks since 2007 have taken a pretty good nose dive in terms of reliability and cost of ownership. The emissions crap, DPF/cat converter, the urea injection, all that stuff is extremely expensive when it breaks, most guys end up removing it and getting an aftermarket tune when it gives them problems(sucks if you live where they emissions test though).
Although I tend to think that you're going to have much better service with a new 2019 diesel truck vs it being 2009 and you buying a new diesel truck then. Those first few years of the new emissions standards, the big 3 hadn't worked out all the kinks yet and Ford was still selling that POS Navistar diesel in their trucks(6.0 and 6.2 Powerstroke)
I wouldn’t listen to anything consumer reports claims. At the end of day buy what you like! There all great trucks. But yes emissions are terrible.
The Cummins engine. If Ford or Chevy stuffed a Caterpillar in one of their trucks that truck would be most popular.
Because those reports are biased. Ppl on forums sing a different tune!
BlueDually4x4 you got that right!
Incredible interview skills really enjoy your content
My f150 has almost the same payload as that blue ram. I’m thoroughly surprised
My old Ranger was rated to 1350 payload, not bad for a 1/4 ton truck to be only a few hundred off from a 1 ton.
How did Temps look when pulling that grade with the foot on the floor? Does the engine derate under extreme loads? How does it manage temperatures when it's max load like that?
Ford will come out with 1,005 lb ft of torque. Haha
Then Chevy will do 1,010, then Ford will knock them out of the park with 1,020. Whether or not they even change the tune doesn't matter, they just give the marketing guys a pen and set them to work.
Yeah but they'll need to add more horsepower then a Cummins would to make the same power
Does anyone know the length or the grade of the hill they were climbing? I know where it is, I don't know how long or the grade. That truck was humping that load up the hill, the Cummins and the Aisin are a beast combination. What concerned me was the braking and I don't see how you can take weight out of the truck, add capacity and not have controllability problems, even with bigger brakes and a more rigid frame. I think the confidence would only come to a competent driver operating within the limits of the truck, how many of those people do you think are behind the wheel of dually's pulling 5th wheel RVs? It seems like Ford and Ram own this heavy duty heavy towing segment, I don't see too many GMs, am curious how they will respond.
All this torque doesn't do much when you don't get it all till 4th gear. I had a 2016 Ram 3500 High Output sold it because it was a death trap if tried to cross a busy highway it would crawl across because of torque management and you would almost get hit. Also come on Ram you can't even brag about 1,000 lbs. of class leading tq. when you can only get it in a 3500 and have to pay a extra $2,500 for it bring total cost to $11,950. Ford and GM both have more power in the 2500 segment which most people buy for way less cost for a diesel.
Sly Ny you obviously had the 3:42 gears. You should have gotten the 4:10 ratio. The 4:10's don't do what you explained. Big difference in the gear choices. You don't need to slam Ram because you don't know shit about gearing. Should have ordered your truck correctly.
