Is the 2020 Ram 1500 Laramie Sport the BEST truck to BUY? 

Watching this 3 years later.. i wish they were still that price. This trim is about 10K more now, and that's without any dealer market adjustments. I bought a 2021 that looks almost identical to this one.. love it.

Joe, I've had 3 beautiful F-150's and one Ram Laramie. Sir, NOTHING superseded my Laramie. Thank you for your excellent reviews!!

all your hypothetical storage situations always make me laugh. why on earth would someone carry 100 ping pong balls and 5 boxes of twinkies LMAO. keep them coming dude. great review as always.

For what you get the Dodge Trucks are the best priced trucks out of all of them from what I have found.

I’m definitely missing an E-Twerk system in my ride. RAM might’ve just sold me! Ha

Pls do the diesel HD 2500

i got one . love it

Just bought one today and it's my first pick up truck ever after decades of cars. I did the homework and I was sold on that screen. I didn't realize how much more quality was inside the truck, I absolutely love this thing!

Great review!! I have the 2020 gmc sierra denali and I must say the interior and the 12” screen on the Ram is so much better lol. My truck looks outdated 👎 shame on GM especially at $71000

The Laramie trim is the best value for the money out of all the trims. It has extra features that competitors don't offer, has a very sharp design, and it's really versatile. Great review man!

I have a 2020 Laramie. I love the 8 speed automatic. It is a very smooth engine and I get about 18 MPG on everyday driving.

If you're getting a pickup just to have a reasonable luxury pickup, this is the one to get. Most comfortable ride, most bang for your buck (especially with FCA rebates). With that I'll say: if you're towing FREQUENTLY and heavy in the 1500 class, get an F-150. They're towing and payload capability can't be beat. Yea the interior isn't the best and is dated even in the new 2021 and the Ford sync is pretty crap,.but it does a trucks work. If you just want a truck just to sit high and have a reliable engine, get a Chevy. Worst interior of the Big 3. Worst infotainment of the big 3. But because the Chevy is so simple, it'll show you less electrical problems in the long run because it's lacking technology. Daily driving, Ram will give you the smoothest ride, quietest ride... And the best interior in terms of quality and look.

I love my 2020 RAM Laramie! I opted for the non-sport version because I like chrome bumpers and grille which don't get chipped! The ride is extremely smooth and there is no wind noise. I had test driven the Ford and GMC trucks but their old leaf spring rear suspensions are no match for the RAM'S superior coil springs.

First time seeing a Ram 1500 review here where you realized that the back seats can recline. Now that is what you call a luxury truck.

Love the look of this truck. Reminds me of the early 70's D100 pick up. Has that same look. Plus the headlights look like a Dodge Charger pick up. Love it. Only one thing wrong I wish FCA would call it what it is. A Dodge Ram!

The pythagorean theorem haha love your reviews I wish I could fit s football in my console too lol keep up the great reviews!

Why ain't THIS best-seller? F-150 ain't got enough. ain't got the personality, practicality, features, and on and on. THIS be Best in class

I’m all for a pickup truck that thinks about my love for Skittles!!

Never seen myself seen myself driving a pickup truck, HOWEVER this truck is beautiful the way they made it, that 12 inch display screen and the way to change gears with just a turn of the knob is awesome, and the way you can add more space to this vehicle by lifting up the back seats is something...

just made a great deal at a Ram limited today, after I've done a test drive as Raiti's Rides suggested me...and I have to agree with you...this truck is a dream when it comes to comfort, power , transmission adjustment, and the finish is a just outstanding...f150 it's good truck ..but this one it's just amazing...👍👍

Got the 5.7 V8 Laramie 6 months ago. It has everything a truck needs, plus luxury and comfort. Did I say rear coil springs? This truck is a smooth operator. The only issue so far is a little wind noise in the driver side front door seal which the dealer will fix under warranty. I get all kinds of compliments on it wherever I go. Mileage could be a bit better, (Avg mpg 15-16), but hey it's a big heavy truck with a powerful engine. I made some mods to it and added a K&N cold air intake, new Flowmaster exhaust, Ultra-Flex tri-fold tonneau cover, Westin HDX side steps and a Ready Lift 2 " leveling kit with a set of 34 inch Ridge Grappler tires. Sounds great and looks even better. It purrs down the road.

My 2020 Laramie has these wheels which were a selling point for me because they looked really easy to keep clean. Smooth broad polished aluminum outer surfaces easy to sponge clean and gun metal grey inserts to hide brake dust between cleanings.

I wish there was an suv based on this platform

Hey joe it’s getting harder and harder for me to put a funny comment keep up the good work 🤪🤪🤪

Nice freaking truck!

What a beast, great review like always 💪🏻

They should have kept the Gear shift on the console. It really makes it look weak. I bought one and really don't like it.

I have a 2019 Laramie Sport and I absolutely love it!!!!!!

I wish they would bring back the Dakota

8:05 that's what she said.

I’m like 3 months away from getting this Laramie. Getting the air suspension and night package. I cannot wait. New F-150 looks really good but hands down this is my next vehicle

That’s a nice 👍 truck joe the interior and those seats 💺 look 👀 good and the the color sparkling ✨ brighter than the sun ☀️ joe that review was awesome 😎 give it up to crown 🤴 Vic Lori the lovely 😊 team and you joe 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💺💺💺✨✨✨✨🧨🧨🙏🙏💣💣💣🔥🔥🔥👑👑👑👑☀️☀️👌👌👌👌👊👊👊👊💪💪💪💪😊😊👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

By far, best looking truck exterior and interior. Elephant in the room is quality of build and reliability. Let’s see how this holds up 5yrs down the road. Suspect until then IMO, especially for $65k

I bought a 2020 Ram 1500 new crewcab 5.7 no etorque 4x4 delmonaco red pearl paint with the beige and brown interior. duel pan. sunroof 12inch touchscreen $58kmsrp got it for $47.5k in April 4th 2020 killer price great truck.

Great review. Powerful truck. That thing can sure tow a lot of boxes of Twinkies

Thank you for a through walk-through on one of my all-time favorite trucks I have been drooling over a Laramie for many years. The only problem is we will be moving to the country soon and I'm not sure I want to haul wood etc. on such a beauty. Dilemmas, dilemmas. Angel from The Bay 2024

What did you like driving better, the Ram or the 2020 F150 Lariat?

Here’s the issue - every car he reviews is great. If he says something bad about them, he will stop getting the press cars to review. Zero substance to his “reviews” as a result.

Can I get this RAM as a 2020 STI model? 🤣😅

It's a Fiat/Chrysler POS "product." Have this cheap ass thing towed on a flatbed to the nearest dealership, trade it in, and buy a Toyota Tundra instead!

ford interiors are straight up GARBAGE. they are so beyond oudated. ram is by far the way to go

I own a 2020 ram 1500 with 11000 miles and it’s been great no problems I also have 35x12.5 on 20x12 on a 3.5 inch lift I had to trim the plastic but even with those big tires the ram makes me want to maintain good momentum especially going up the mountains love my truck.

No sunroof! Inconceivable!

JOE that back seat looks very comfortable for a nap!

Definitely the best truck interior in its class but the exterior isn’t for me...

I have this exact truck minus the running boards and it's fricking awesome.

Good review. Picked up a Blue Big Horn Built to Serve edition today. Liked the options with that model. So far the first 10 miles have been wonderful!

My very first pickup truck! Nice video Joe.

Love Ram . Can’t wait for you do review of the TRX Ram truck coming out in 2021 .

Joe, who sells more trucks Ford or Ram? I know you are in the automotive review business but tell the truth about FCA and why they are ranked so low in reliability.

How's your night Joe? MOPAR LET'S GO!!! RAM!!!

About this particular truck, very nice interior, would prefer a longer box, 5'7" too short. I prefer the eTorque for better towing capacity. Overall good looking RAM, competition is good. Watch out Ford.

MSRP on the Laramie is $70k now....WTF

Excelente camioneta 😊👌muy buena

This guy is awesome.

Nice review and it comes at a good time- picking up a new 2020 Ram Big Horn crew cab 4x4 tomorrow. It's replacing my better half's tired '13 Honda CR-V ... never ever have seen her so excited about a new ride. Even at the Big Horn trim level (Level 2 equipment package w/ bucket seats) this interior is killer. The ride and interior noise level level is better than a lot of luxury cars I've been in. eTorque Hemi and 3.92's should pull a future travel trailer pretty well. Big, big purchase for us and we're both a little nervous about it but your review has gone a long way towards easing my mind about it ... think she's going to be really pleased with it over the long run. Only real problem now is getting it to fit in the garage- got to move a mountain of stuff somewhere else ... a CR-V and a 500 Abarth don't take up much space. Keep up the good work!

Any owners out with the e-torque system?. How is it holding up?.

Joe , you may not see this since it was 2 years ago to the date of this video ,but I just bought one of these and your review was a part of the decision. I love it. Black Laramie Sport is my first truck since 1998.

The best part of the screen is that the image goes all the way to the edge of the screen. Volvo's do this too, but soooooo many others do not and it's very disappointing. (Looking at you MB - "best or nothing" my ass with your one inch borders!) In this day and age, every screen should be more like this one.

I've seen this dude before, ain't he host of carnival eats!?

My dream truck. I was thinking about a Toyota.

"You have a football?" 😂😂

How well will this truck age? Joe you seem to feel some parts are already looking dated.

U R killing it with the snack hide away 🙃😀😊

Best car reviewer on youtube. Keep it up Joe!

Best looking trim level in the Ram line-up IMO especially in the Delmonico Red.

Ugh this same truck now is 65k brand new 😞

Glad you reviewed this truck Joe thanks

Hey Joe, can you do a review on a ram HD diesel? Thanks!

If they didn’t have that pansy ass knob shifter id consider it

Love the tour of Tampa from the Ram perspective

The elephant in the room is less than stellar reputation for reliability. With that said could be world class.

The best car review 👌

What's the Price for this Ram

Can you do a 2020 1500 Sierra Denali review? Looking at getting a truck here soon.

Now that’s a Truck! 💪🏼🦾

I own a fully loaded Laramie crew cab with the off road group and 33k miles. It’s been through some tough stuff and not one problem. I average 19mpg after I had the undercarriage covered to protect it from rust. Prior to that I averaged 20-22mpg with the 5.7 Hemi and all terrains. Mine had the appearance package as well

My back window is leaking causing the RF hub to corrode. It’s just out of warranty and Ram care is currently covering the whole cost. What I’m wondering is why is the RF hub under the back seat?

I have one and love it!!!

You had me until you said 5.7 bed.

My friend said this is better then a scat pack

I agree with you the air vents are bitching they should have been functional and to top it off they should have put a nice fat Ram head on that hood to match with the back with butting heads in the front with butting heads in the back and one thing I would like just that stagger look small tires in the front big fat meeting was in the back that's just me back to the study keep up the good work great video sincerely OG Arrington

Awesome video... what watch do you wear, looks very nice...

*sigh* here I was super excited for the colorado z71 this is even better but 50k breaks my bankl cant afford it so will still have to stick with the colorado.

I love this dude lol he makes it fun to watch car reviews

Ram junk . Just not reliable. Falls apart after a couple of years. I’ve already heard problems with that touch screen. Just not a good truck . They do look good . But every mechanic I know , curse these trucks

Man, I'm trading in my f150 these trucks are beautiful and massive, it doesn't look skimpy like the f150.... I'm sold.

Only half ton I would spend that much money on right off the lot...you can’t beat those tech options!

Just wanted to add one thing I think all reviewers miss. The cup holders at the back of the center console also double as a tablet holder for the backseat passengers.

The more I learn about trucks the more I realize that the half ton segment, despite being the best selling is logically the most pointless. Midsize trucks make better daily drivers (with near the same real world capacity) and 3/4th tons make better work vehicles. All half tons are, are just roomier midsize trucks with beefier engines, but payload and tow ratings are close enough in the real world. It explains why FCA made their midsize truck a jeep rather than a ram, they didn't wanna step on the ram 1500's toes considering the redesign.

Of course it is if you wanna replace yourself rocker arms, rods, pistons, piston rings, maybe even have to swap your block, injectors and my personal favorite the rounded out cam. These engines are junk unless they fixed them and I doubt they did

Wow! Awesome truck. But i like Fords way more

Best looking truck. New Ford f150 did not take any risk and Chevrolet Silverado is butt ugly and the interior cmon now. GM needs the corvette team to work its magic on the truck side of things

I'm going to ZONK the rims because they are too plain. I Like the Truck overall. Im glad you Zonk the non functional things.

Truck really is dated, that headlight quality needs to be up graded in my opinion remove the chrome add lil black shading be great , also with rims need some shiny black rims.

Forward of the Firewall, there's too much design flows going on and fake everything. After that, clean body lines and tailgate, are spot on. Interior, seats could use more bolstering, IMO. Dash layout, infotainment system, and the business side, is definite selling point for me! Well Done. Did your tester have paddle shifters? Also was it a 4 , or AWD, drivetrain. Living with in metro Detroit, I unfortunately see more of these on haulers, from the factory, than I do on the road, over Ford, and GM(C) trucks, on a daily basis. Overall, it would be something, for me, to consider. However, that front end, not so much the grill, needs to be better thought out, when it comes to functionality. In contrast, the rise in the hood, is useless, once you raise the hood, and one sees how low that engine sits. That, "gap" should be filled with some form of storage space for keeping the White Castles, or Coney Dogs, "Warm"! Great review 👍, Joe! 🏁🏁

2020 Ram 1500 Night Edition Black 5.7

Can you please ask these designers Why they never add a FREAKING SEAT/THIGH EXTENDER... EVER... NOT ONE TIME DUDE!!!

In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides“. It’s been awhile. I had to look it up. 🤓 Not a big truck fan but a Ram 🐏 truck would be my choice if for some strange reason I decided to purchase one. Excellent review as usual. 👍

When buying a Ram 1500 Sport Package you can delete the hood with the fake vents. Unfortunately this can't be done when ordering the night edition.
