Welcome back guys, this is the first and most in depth review and walk around of the 2024 Ram 3500 HD Laramie Crew Cab trucks with 6.7 Cummins and 68RFE. What’s changed for 2024? What hasn’t changed for 2024? Can the likes of the 2024 Ram Heavy Duty trucks actually compete against Ford’s 2023 re-design of the Super Duty? Or can it run with the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra re-boot of the interior and exterior?
With all the new High output engines and extra trailering tech, did Ram do enough in 2024 or will it fall behind. I’ll walk you around the 2024 and tell you what is new and where this shines or fails. The video is long, but a thorough job has to cover every angle.
We’ll have towing soon and tons of great content. Check out my other videos below where I put the newest Gassers against each other. Please subscribe and like also and head over to the channel for auto reviews, fixes and life hacks.

If I had a need for a diesel today, and I love my 22 Chevy HD gasser, it would be the cummins hands down bar none. I'm not a fan boy of the rams but that engine is to die for, in my opinion only!

Great video. My last 3 trucks have been rams, great trucks. This time price and available options pushed me to Ford. F-350 lariat tremor 7.3 has the off road features + payload. Just can't get a ram spec'd like that. Maybe someday!

You got a nice truck. I like the looks of the Rams for sure. Much better than the Fords. My issue with Ram is it’s basically the same truck from the 2010 model year. Now I know they have made some changes but as far as cab size, bed size and just the general size and shape of the truck it’s the same. They have “enough” room but they are very noticeably smaller than a GM or Ford and it’s not just the back seat. The front seat area too. I always feel like I have to scoot the seat back as far as it will go in a Ram and even then I feel like I need a little more. And the roof seems lower too (or possibly the seat is just up higher) because I always feel like my head is about to touch the roof (I’m 6’3). The last thing I’ll beat on the Rams over is the coil springs of the 2500s. Now I completely missed that this truck is a 3500 in another video, but I feel like with a Ram you need to just skip the 2500 all together if you’re towing a high profile, long trailer. But with all that said I’d probably still pick the Ram over a Ford. I do think I’d want a diesel only though with Ram. Not a fan of the cylinder shutoff crap. And then the other area where Ram excels is the center console. It truly is the best of the 3. I’m not crazy about the 12” touch screen though. I don’t like having the heated seat controls being in there. I didn’t notice them being on the dash so I’m assuming that’s the only way to turn them on is through the touchscreen. Long post but that’s my opinions on the Rams. They definitely are good looking trucks.

I appreciate when you post, I love the perspective, and I agree wholeheartedly. This truck may set me up for a 25 chevy gas in a little more uptrim. Loving all the swag in this one, but kong is still the best truck I've had in over a decade.

Although a very nice truck, Ford and GM are offering more in their HD trucks for the money. I own a 16 Ram 2500 Laramie with the Cummins. There isn't enough here to warrant an upgrade for me! RAM is absolutely out of their minds, thinking these trucks are worth 90k! Keep in mind that the stock fender flares that came with the Laramie trim, are no longer included! Glad you got 18k off, but it's still not enough IMO.

I've had Rams (10) over the past 20 years, many HD's with a Cummins. The Ram I want I no longer can afford. I ended up ordering a 2024 High Country Duramax OTD for 83k, every option. I still like the Ram, but with their major price increases, I have to see more than what they offer....larger cab, larger bed. I saw Laramie's that were in the mids 90s and had no bed step, no bed liner, no running boards, etc. Way over priced for 2023 and 2024.

Just traded my 2022 Ram …Cummins ..all the bells and whistles…traded for a 2024 2500 AT4 6.6 gas. Couldn’t be more happy with trade. The Cummins choked up with all the emissions…..it gets worse and worse with regens as you go. I monitored my regens religiously. It got tiring. I’m so over with diesel engines.

Great exhaustive video. Appreciate your thoroughness. I pull 9K lbs on the bumper with a 15' Hemi, 6.4. Looking to get a 14K gross inTech 40' GN. Will be towing 3-4 times a week. I want a diesel, not for the weight, but for Ram's exhaust brake and the overall stability of the long trailer. Thinking 3500 dually. I want the safest rig for employees to drive if I'm not with them. I'm I missing anything in my thought process?
@automotiveinquiries9673
@automotiveinquiries9673 11 месяцев назад
You are spot on with the diesel and the dually. That exhaust brake will save your normal brakes ten fold over the competition. With the dually you gain extra sway control and stability in wind when towing. And the ram, when driven at 75 or less in my experience has the best MPG's.

My son keeps saying we will only be loading this trailer to about 10K and a dually will be over kill. I keep saying it's not about the weight but the size and wind resistant and how this square box will handle behind a short bed truck. I think a dually will be safer. I'm I making a false case because I may want a dually?
@automotiveinquiries9673
@automotiveinquiries9673 11 месяцев назад
@elderrob with the dually, you leave yourself room to always be able to do more if needed. And a dually hands down is more stable than any truck. If I was towing 3 times or more a week, I'd have a dually myself, just because you'll never be wondering if you needed more and when I towed my larger 5th wheel with my single wheel (2015) short bed it was fine...upgraded to a dually (2016) and it was a game changer in every situation. Trailer rode better on that truck, control etc. But it does come down to what you need and want for sure.
