Eh 2,000lbs payload is nothing for these trucks. My 2015 ram 2500 megacab says it’s only good for one about 1700 pounds or maybe it was 1650… Anyways I have at least 200 pounds of permanently attached mods to my truck so that’s now only 1500 lbs payload… lol I’ve had at least 2000 to 2300 pounds in the bed so several hundred pounds over my payload capacity and truck is perfectly fine. I have even had at least 3000 pounds combined between tongue weight and weight in the bed of my three-quarter ton Megacab.

I will say though at 2K miles the check engine light came on and showed something with the trans valve body. it drove fine but brought it in and 2 months later I got it back. Apparently they had a recall and i was one of the lucky ones and naturally with dealers not being able to get parts they just replaced the whole trans that had different part number. The dealer told me they made updates to the one that was installed and changes made to the valve body . Other than that what nobody talks about is the factory HC 19 speaker sound system with the sub , this is the best sound system i have ever owned and i have owned all brands .

The high output Cummins with the ASIN transmission is an option even on the 3500, , you can only get it on the 3500 but as an option , so, on the 2500 you can only get the standard Cummins, with the 3500 you can choose the standard Cummins for roughly $9000 more than Gas models or the high output Cummins for roughly $12,000 more then the gas model, so, when you are looking to buy a 1 ton ram, it doesn't necessarily mean that it has that high output Cummins in it

Decent review. I drive a variety of 1 ton diesel trucks for work towing stock trailers mostly. The big three all make good trucks. My personal truck is a 21 Ram 3500 HO with the Aisan transmission. Two points that Andre didn’t cover: The Cummins is a slow turning inline diesel that develops its torque early in its power band which makes it good for towing bad for the drag strip. The other point is that the exhaust brake on the Ram is far superior to Ford or GM. I have descended mountain passes with 20,000+ on the gooseneck and there is no pucker factor with the Ram.

I think a good payload would be between 3 and 4k. You'll have enough to carry cargo in addition to people and supplies inside the truck. Unless you haul heavier items, you'll be wasting money. A Ram 2500 in the right configuration is a good choice and will be enough truck for most. Diesel or Gas.

@@kirkdunn1379 I owned pickups and crewcabs for decades but they were work vehicles. Always operating close to max GVW. Kept log books so able to track fuel consumption. Calculation I provide here is yearly average and includes warm up times and idling for long periods of time during winter. Gas models averaged 30L/100K with the diesels 19L/100K. At first I did not believe the figures and thought a few fillings had to be missed but the figures continued over the next 3 years. Got rid of the last gas vehicle in 1999 so data is definitely out of date. If you were to compare figures for a highway trip in the summer diesels still turned in better figures but definitely not the difference shown over a year. I have never been concerned what a vehicle can do on a highway run under the best of conditions, what I am interested in what does it cost to run that vehicle for a year. In addition to the better fuel economy the crew appreciated the performance of the diesels. So yes at time of trade I did not get the full cost of the motor back but my overall operating cost was cheaper. And when you are in business that is one of your main concerns.

I'm about to go trade in my 18 2500 6.4. If you tow on a regular basis, it's got to be diesel. On paper people are convinced the 6.4 is capable, I'M TELLING YOU IT'S NOT! I've got a tree biz and just towing dump trailer and mini loader, I'm at 8000 pound and that's without any load added to that. I'm in Florida, so pretty flat roads, I'd imagine if there were hills that out would be way worse. Went from older dirty max to the 6.4. If you just want a big truck to give around the 6.4 is great. The hardest thing about needing a diesel is having to swallow the price of them these days.

Andre, just in time. I am looking. Thanks The 850 pound truck is designed to meet or exceed the needs of the average owner while keeping the cost down. The 1000 pound configuration needs a lot more heavy duty components and costs more while being much less user friendly The 3500 rides very rough and unless you are regularly towing loads that exceed the 2500 that is not a great choice.

The puck fifth wheel/goose neck system from the big three is garbage. You have to stow that crap somewhere else when you want a flat bed and the hole covers get lost right off the bat. Who wants to store a dirty greasy ball and safety chain connectors in the cab or bed? B&W Turn Over ball is the only way to fly. Full pull rating and nothing to store when you want a flat bed surface. I wish those cheap automakers would just pay a licensing fee to B&W and have something good from the factory without having the extra time and expense to have it installed.

Fuel economy is no reason to buy a diesel. If you tow a lot of heavy stuff, yes, by all means get one. I would. But It is hard make up for the price premium difference you pay for the diesel engine in improved fuel mileage. Driving 20,000 miles a year (not many people do), break even is about 10 years out. Of course one other important reason to get a diesel is that you think they sound cool and you simply want one.😁

It’s not really about the trucks ability to haul and more so the 10,000lb weight limit put on these trucks if you have a B license plate.. My 2015 Ram 2500 megacab says like a max of 1800lbs or so on the door sticker… with me in it the truck it weighs 8500lbs… so some one somewhere made restrictions legally its only allowed to carry another 1500 lbs. Lol even though I’ve had 2200lbs in the bed and around 1200-1500lbs tongue weight with a trailer on back. so that’s about the same as double my “legal limit” and truck has never had an issue

That’s not the reason for having a lower payload. It’s the weight of the Diesel engine that’s substantially heavier than the Hemi AND the trim level of the limited model.
