Buddy of mine just purchased this sweet Ram! Spent a long time at the dealer, but got all the numbers worked out and he's a happy camper! The hardest part was finding a truck with a sunroof, next to impossible on the 2500.

Truck ended up coming at 62k! I was shocked how much trucks can cost!

I was really impressed of how nice rides, very smooth and quiet. Very hard to tell its a diesel.

The graphics in the center are very sharp and easy to see, there is so much useful info available its almost crazy!

I will try and get more pics.

I can't think of any circumstances that I'd ever find myself in where I'd need or want a pickup truck that costs that much...

What is he planning on using it for?

He just has always wanted a Cummins Ram, not even going to be towing anything!!! Personally I think he is nuts, I can not see myself making a car payment of 1014.00 a month, just crazy!

I will say, the truck is nicer then most luxury cars, the leather that is used throughout is top notch. There is so much attention to details.

Looks like the Laramie Longhorn, judging by what I call the belt-buckle, on the door (the badge) and the graphics on the gauge cluster. Nice truck. That pic of the TFT gives away how they're hiding the square screen behind the round instruments. Not a bad idea, considering it was only done digitally with the Darts.

(old pic, Jace is at 17xxx now)

Not even towing anything, eh??? That's awesome. Buy it just because he wants it!!! :thumbsup:

Suzq, it is the Long Horn edition. It's got all the options, I enjoyed the vented front seats!

I think the digital rendition makes more sense -- it uses more of the screen and gives you more flexibility -- but hey, whatever works. And I like all those little luxury things too.

Myself I would prefer Red or Black, however we long, hot sunny summers and very little cloud cover in general, so white is by far the most poplar color. 90% of the trucks on the lot where white!

That's an awesome truck.

There'a a new 1500 Longhorn here too.

I'd love a new Ram 1500 Sport.

Break-in takes forever on the Cummins trucks. After a few hundred miles, tell your friend to hook up a heavy load and tow up some serious hills to help break-in. I did, and my truck has never used a measurable amount of oil in 14 years.

30,000-60,000 miles according to some Cummins insiders.

White stays the cleanest looking. You are free to get the color of your choice. My new Avenger is..............White.

Inside looks like an Old West brothel....err...saloon... --or so I've heard... :innocent:

Grand Cherokees, 300s and Chargers have a similar digital display.

Gorgeous truck...!

I was just looking at the interior pix again. Just imagine if the Dodge name was still plastered on that beauty...what it would do for the Dodge name...
