Sounds like he says pretty nice engine.5 million sensors on engine is over stated but funny.

You are welcome. 🤣

Traded my 2022 Ram 1500 longhorn 5.7 hemi for a 2025 Laramie 1500 with the hurricane standard output 420 HP.My first 1,000 miles and the mileage is 4 MPG better than the 5.7 hemi a lot quicker engine response HP wise.Time will tell on the durability part of the engine.

Rust proofing is your friend.;)

Being a old fart I wonder how many folks today even know where the dipstick is located.How many even check there oil.

All my vehicles have Krown rust proofing applied to them once per year.No rust issues in 10 years.

Hope this is true.

Brand new 2002 chevy 1500 biggest turd I ever owned.My last Ford F-150 2008 Many $$ spent on repairs.So there you have it every one makes a lemon.

🤣 🤣

Nope not new at all to this dumb comparison crap show.I find it amusing .. 🤣 My truck is better than your truck.Meet you down by the monkey bars so we can settle this dispute..:poop:

I Could care less who gets bailed out or who got bailed out in 1979/80.Get tired of ram this chevy this ford this crying truck comparisons ..Makes for great entertainment tough.

Funny they said the same thing about ford,GM and Chrysler before the government bail out.Funny how that works 🤣🤣

Now thats odd Drove a 2025 GMC Denali 1/2 ton & experienced the same thing you did with the Ram you drove.IMHO you can get a lemon in any brand ..

Now that's funny disaster ..Maybe USA will bail out Ford and GM again how's that for disaster ? LMAO.. PS see a chit ton of jeeps still on the road can't say they have fallen off any cliff.

What does this post have to do with 2025 Ram 1500 just curious?

Will do.Like anything else with newer technology time will tell.:D

I have 430 miles on the truck so far avg MPG are 19.2 city highway verses my hemi 5.7 at 14.3 mpg.Happy so far with the mileage aspect side of things.

What a deal what value ..

Beg to differ with you.My good friend works at the Chelsea(Chrysler ) proving grounds (Lead engineer ) been friends for 25 plus years. He told me this engine is a very good reliable engine ..Time will tell.If you do enough reading on the 5,7 hemi they're not bullet proof by any means.The inline...

Engine has been out now for 3 years in the jeep wagoner.So no NOT a new engine.

36,000 3 year bumper to bumper 5 yr. 60,000 engine & drive train.

Purchased a 2025 Ram Laramie 1500 tonight with the low out put hurricane motor 420 HP.Time will tell on this motor.

Paid cash for the 2022 Ram 1500 when I was working now retired.Current truck is longhorn model want to get into the Laramie model a few more bells and whistles.More stuff to fix.LMAO.

Not buying with the high out put model.I agree on the 91 oct.part

Old truck is fine just want to upgrade.Thanks.

Any opinions on the new 2025 Ram 1500 with the standard hurricane inline 6cly.with twin turbos?I currently have a 2022 Ram 1500 with the 5.7 hemi.Thinking about trading up to a 2025.

I am a retired electric lineman of 38 yearS of service.Here are my thoughts I have owned 2 generac whole house units (17 & 18 kw)with ZERO problems over a 14 year period.In my travels I have seen more generac generators more than any other brands.

You have to realize 5030 is the MAN..🤪 and has pi$$ poor advice 99% of the time.

(y)(y) That is what 5030 does when you call him out on his foolish comments.

5030 not a hard on for you at all.I just don't like folks like yourself that just FLING false information on many subjects with no merit to the good folks on this site that need it.Take care and remember your medical checkup this year.🤕 On a side note I also have a 12 year old generac whole...

And you know what they say about opinions.;)

Its fun to read the honest comments underneath this article they seem to ridicule car talks advice..

Just purchased a 2022 Ram and had Krown rustproofing installed.You are correct people see what they want to see & living here in Michigan I see MANY 6-8 year old vehicles that are rusted out that have not been rustproofed.IMHO for $139 per year investment its money well spent..😉😉

+1

😩😩😩😢😭😭😭

Don't be fooled unless you live in a rust belt.:rolleyes:.I will take my chances rust proofing all of my vehicles as I have done for the last 40 years.I see how my friend and families cars hold up without it rust proofing and the results are not good.

Net.tractor talk also has a dedicated section for Kubota RTV,s

YIKES ! I would be sore for a week..(y)

I have all of my vehicles sprayed with Krown rust proofing .

Makes sure what ever you purchase to drain the water out of the pump after each use.I alway use a pump lube every fall before storage ..

You get what you pay for.if you want a $300-$400 power washer it might last 4-5 years.Cheap motor,cheap water pumps..

Until you have a underground fault which takes twice as long to find and repair..

I wish I had a $10 bill for every time I pulled a dead squirrel or raccoon off a Hot overhead transformer in my 39 years as an electric lineman..

They are usually installed only at transformer locations.Not all power companies use them.

H,mm you pre ought propane for $1.99 here in michigan? Hell of a deal since the cheapest price I found was $2.45 and we are not that far from each other.What company did you purchase from?

Now thats FUNNY.."Like a John Deere "IMHO this day in age MOST tractor brands hold their value.To your original question I don't care what the value is at the end I look how many times my tractor saved my old A$$ from doing hard crap....Can't put a price on that now can you..:unsure:

Yes they do.Michigan has many state/county employees patching roads on a daily basis..

HUH ?? Must be those COUNTY(government) snow plows trucks are owned by private contractors?? :poop::poop::poop::poop:...You make me laugh..:ROFLMAO:..

Prices are stupid HIGH.I was looking for a new 2022 1/2 ton truck in April went to chevy, ford and ram dealers.Most truck dealers wanted MSRP with no employee discount and they kept the rebates.I went to the ram dealer that I had previously ordered from in the past and dealt the owner and he...

Hell now your a old PERVERT.No surprise there..:sick: I thought you had me on ignore :unsure: Oh I guess another one of your BS lies.. :poop:

Those are some pretty big words for you:ROFLMAO: Bet you have a dictionary on hand. :unsure: How the crops coming along down your way big MEGA FARMER??

Have to say you make my belly laugh big shooter..:ROFLMAO:..PUFF that chest out and keep the whoppers coming..:poop:

Just stating the facts without the BS.Sorry you are so insecure but HEY you already know that it shows in your comment.:unsure:

Are you still taking your angry meds?:mad:

Hay dude is SPOT ON with his comment.

Great looking trailer you will be very happy you went 22 ft..

Good luck with that mind set.Trust me there is NO perfect tractors on the market.Same with vehicles ..

Not everyone buys a tractor with the mind set of what resale will be.One would think they purchase it for 30 plus years of service.I understand life throws curve balls at us but I try to buy for the long haul.

Why ask your question then since you already know the answer? Buy the JD or Kubota done deal.

Some have a BIGGER crystal ball than I do ..

If you wait until the next major recession I would intend to agree.I purchased a lot of equipment back in 2007-2008.But if one can wait that long is the real question.

YUP same here Vince common sense operation.

Its always good idea to keep kicking the can down the road before purchasing equipment as it is getting cheaper. 🤪 We are living in volatile times that most of us have never seen

As I stated in my earlier post I run my ZTR on hilly terrain with no issues.But you will always get the jack wagons who will mow steep ditch banks and such that will roll over or slide down the hills then ***** and complain they don't mow well on hills 🤪 .Common sense has left our society the...

You know where the door is if your feelers are hurt. (y) I for one enjoy spirited discussions.. 🙂

I degree with this statement.I have a ZTR and where I live/mow is very hilly.Never had any issues. 681110,681111

I will take snow over wild fires and evacuation from my house all day long. (y)

I fully agree.The wife and I just did our weekly grocery run prices are getting nuts for food.2 slabs of pork ribs were $42 bucks. 🤪

HOLY Moly thats a crazy price. 🤪 I think we will be headed back towards a 2008 recession but twice as bad.

I just can't stand misinformation, BS and outright lying it bugs the chit out of me.I appreciate your comment Richard.No hard feelings..🙂

I have had great luck with Goodyear endurance & Maxxis trailer tires.The goodyears are made in the good old USA.

Not gay just don't like bull chitters like you.By the way dummy caught you in another lie..2012 chevy suburban motor choices are as follows 5.3 and 6.0 NO 350 motor options. :poop: :poop: :poop: :poop: :poop: So wifeys new LTZ truck was NOT just off lease its 10 years old.Just so you know...

Strange post I thought you just posted(on march 21st page 49 post# 481) in the battery vehicle thread you just purchased the wife a new LTZ suburban just of lease.I did not know the NEW suburbans came with the 350 motors.. :poop: You would make a great third grade story teller..:rolleyes:
