I will say this, Ram has always been good at Initial Quality. It is long term where I have my concern with them. I've driven a few that were 2 or 3 years old. They didn't held up well, but that is just my opinion.

Well folks, I did it. After all the failed attempts at the Chevy dealer I traded it in for a 2015 Ram 1500 Larame. I have to agree with the other folks on here that have done the same thing, it was th

Apparently you and the other customer reps don't care. If you or GM would care y'all would put more effort in the matter. Just coming on the forum and stating the same repetitive posts and being a 3

I also own a Fiat product, a Jeep Grand Cherokee that is almost 4 years old and 30k miles and has held up just fine. It has had a ton of recalls and parts replaced because of the recalls but has never given us a problem.

Don't be scared it's just another opinion lol . There's folks that wouldn't be caught dead in GM products fords , Rams and so on . Here's a better story for you when I was buying my new Ram I was waiting to go into finance hanging out in the service department drinking a complimentary celebration coffee lol . A gentleman was sitting next to me when my salesman came back with a owners manual and extra set of keys while I waiting since they were so busy . Anyway the guy next to me asked what I bought and I Said a new Ram q-cab and he smiled and replied your going to love it and he pointed at another Ram on the lift and said that was his getting the oil changed and has had it for five years and all he's done is change the oil and plugs . Never had a ounce of trouble and liked it so much he bought another new one but still kept this one lol said he just couldn't part with it .

Hope that cheers you up lol :)

I truly hope there's a resolution to this problem for you guys. I bought a 2015 crewcab short box 5.3 June 15th. I had been back and forth to the dealer more times than I can remember and certainly more times than I've ever been collectively in my life, and I've been leasing and owning new vehicles for over 20 years.

 

I went to Dodge last week and traded my Silverado with 3400 miles in for a new 2015 Ram.. I had enough.. From June 15th up until last week I did nothing but go back and forth to the dealer or was on the phone with GM. I have no issue whatsoever with the Ram and am really, really happy with it.

 

I've worked in the automotive industry for decades. GM has always had their issues, and maybe in my older age I was being hopeful, but nothing has changed. They still deliver troubled products as is blatantly apparent. GM should be ashamed of themselves to be quite frank.

 

I wish you all the best with this nonsense. Hopefully GM does the right thing eventually.

Just curious, I wonder how much all of you that went and traded in brand new trucks, what was your loss? I had a 2014 Ram and unfortunately did not like it enough to keep. TIA!

You cannot put a price on sanity ;)

In the end, I really lost nothing. My payment is the same.

I went to Jannell Ford, and they offered me 32,000 based when deducting 7000 in incentives and another 7,000 for the full first years worth of depreciation I should have been offered 44,000-45,000 based upon my truck. so approximately 26% extra or 12,000-13,000. but thats just my experience

GM agreed to replace our vehicle, we're out test driving a Sierra as we speak. It vibrates in between 70-80 MPH. Going back to try another ?

Ours developed the vibration at 6,000 Miles, so we're ready for that too. We've gone from A to Z with this problem so we're very aware. Thanks :)

      So you're saying toss the baby out with the bathwater? @txab posted article was her take on how AI can be used to manipulate pricing as it already does and has been rebuked by the judiciasry in housing. How AI can be and is used to maximize refinery or even Amazon operations all of which are true but because she is who she is; that makes what she says about what is true, false? Is that something akin to Pre-justice aka prejudice?    Look, I'm first in line to approach all information with caution just because we live in a world where people like to lie about someone or something with such a straight face and in such volume that it makes digging to the truth wearisome. Meaning I understand the skepticisms but if I were to toss out everything a person is for a view they hold then my pool of people to draw wisdom from would be non-existent and I'd be forced to reinvent the wheel daily. Not practical.    "Be innocent as a dove but as cautious as a serpent."    Test each word. Every good lie is part truth or no one would believe it. Find the truth in it and reject what isn't.    On this one, AI is being used to do what has been done by hand for hundreds of years already but at such speed, the point of a computer, that it is more easily monetized. This one wasn't that hard a lift.    I wrote a few formulas in a Lotus 123 program decades ago, a series of linked Macros actually, that allowed a daily inventory to be turned into a running P&L and production plan. Something that took three departments a week to assemble now took the time it takes to input the 'daily changes' in inventory. Later that was ungraded to the more powerful Excel program an and integrated with bar code scanning, inventory to supply was done once per shift. It had a huge impact on production scheduling, Seamless interruption flexibility, inventory error reduction, raw materials cost effective utilization and scrap reduction. Huge improvement in the bottom line. I spent months on that and AI could have done it in minutes. So yes, it not only can be used, they would be foolish to not try. The legality, ethics and morality are not the domain of AI. Humans need to keep a reign on it.

      How to Tune 6L80 Silverado transmission

      By ballencd · Posted

      New to this forum.  Also looking to tune a 6L80 and trying to work out all the issues in my transmission swap.  I have a 6.2 diesel (1983) and have removed the TH-400 and about to put in a 6L80 with a TCM-2600 interface and don't have a clue what I doing after that.  Did you (Leatherneck/RAV3) get your slip resolved? I too hate to spend that kind of money on a tuner that hopefully I will not need too many times although from what steelerdude15 added about the HP Tuner being great for diagnostics would be a plus.  I am also from WNC but below you in Columbus.  Any helo would be greatly appreciated.

      Sounds like a smart reasonable person with common sense. Bill O’Riley never said he was just a journalist, by the way.

      It's like saying Bill O'Reilly is "just" a journalist.         Lauren Fix, widely known as "The Car Coach," is a prominent automotive journalist, television personality, and self-identified conservative. She is a frequent contributor to right-leaning networks and platforms, offering commentary that intersects the automotive industry, consumer economics, and conservative political perspectives. [1, 2, 3] Media and Commentary Network Contributions: Fix serves as the National Automotive Correspondent for Newsmax and is a frequent guest on Fox News and Fox Business. Video Platforms: She has contributed to PragerU, where she has hosted videos critiquing government mandates on vehicles. [1, 2, 3] Core Positions Anti-EV Mandates & Fuel Policies: Fix regularly critiques government subsidies and mandates for electric vehicles (EVs), framing them as impractical and burdensome to the average consumer. She advocates for consumer choice and supports traditional internal combustion engine vehicles. [1, 2, 3] Economic Analysis: Her commentary often emphasizes the impacts of fuel prices, inflation, and federal regulations on drivers. [1, 2, 3] Political Alignment: On her public channels, she actively supports deregulation, "drill baby drill" energy policies, and the removal of government restrictions on auto sales and manufacturing. [1, 2] For analysis from Lauren Fix on how consumer automotive choices can align with political leanings:
