Whos got one? Whats the no bs 110 km/h L/100km?

Stock 33s? Or aftermarket 35s?

I hated the goofy stripes and decals at first but really sets them apart from the slts and laramies.

I like the white 2013 with the black headlights.

ARFF had one. Wasn't a 2010 I don't think .
With 4:56 gears I can't imagine much over 15mpg even at 100kmph with a tail wind

I want one cause you see next to none of them. i dont know how many times at a light there will be 2-3 black ram sports. The winch, lockers, and swaybar disconnect will be perfect for going to safeway a block away from my house to get groceries.

Yes it worked great. I would still have it but it would not tow the tri axle toyhauler.

You young guys don't walk anymore????

only time i drive is after work or in the rain, i bike 22km a day to work and back usually. I biked once in teh rain and i had to re lube and remove rust off my chain and gears for an hour so never again.

Are the 4.56 gears really necessary for Sask offroading? You see the truck rock crawling where the gears would make more sense, its also a huge truck for tight trails rough trails.........

Im on the fence. Wish the Outdoorsman ram was more than just skidplate and decals. The raptor is reaaaaaally wide and is a prerunner more than a 4x4 for tight trails.

I think a 1500 with a lift, 35s, a winch bumper is really all i need.

Buddy just did that to his 13 laramie 1500, looks real good and is just about like a powerwagon minus the 3/4 ton chassis, bonus is that he still has MDS, definitely doesnt go into ECO mode as often anymore but still does on hills, deceleration and with a bit of a tail wind it works as well.

I have a 2012 power wagon laramie empty doing 110-115 i burn 19-20 liters per 100 km. pulling my 2 place sled trailer with a sled in the box of the truck doing the same speed i burn around 23-25. pulling my 11000 lb fifth wheel doing 100-110 i burn 27-29 l per 100 km. i drive it fairly aggresive when my dad drives it he gets a lot better millage. My last truck was a 1500 with 35 s and it wasn,t any better on fuel and only half the truck.
