Opinions? Problems?
What year
I had a 09. Couldn’t get the exhaust cans to hold up. My 15 was bullet proof I’m told the new ones are eating transmissions they are so strong. I looked closely and chose a gas burner being I only tow under ten thousand lbs.
I own a 2011 love it. I did install a tow package to mine as well as deleted it. All the power you want and it gets between 18 and 21 miles .
I'm looking at a new 2500 Ram Laramie 4X4 short bed with the Cummins. I tow my Triton and a 32' RV trailer. Drove a new GMC Sierra 2500HD 4X4 Duramax, $79000 scared me. And GM has really cut back their available colors, only red, white, black standard, few others you pay extra for.
:ThumbsUp from the mechanics at my shop on the newer models.
I own a 2017 4500 with the 6.7. It's a service truck for my business, loaded down with a knapheide bed, 225 gallon water tank, generator and a bunch of tools and such. Plus often towing a 12,000# trailer most days. So far only issues was a water pump that was replaced as a recall concern. It' a good truck, it burns diesel and DEF fluid a lot quicker then the 6.7 powerstroke's. Without a trailer getting 11 miles to a gallon, with a trailer it's more like 9. That is my only issue that I can find with it so far. My diesel mechanic said bring it to him when I first bought it and get the full delete done on it, told him not a chance with 100,000 miles of warranty left, lol. And another thing if it's an option in the size truck your looking at get the heavy duty transmission :twocents
What does deleting it do?
