How many miles do you have on your 4.5 gen gasser?

2020 Ram 2500 purchased new 9/20. Currently at 26,782 miles. Not my daily, use it mainly for towing my boat and 5k travel trailer.

I have a 2020 that I ordered and took delivery in Feb of 2020 just before Covid shut everything down. I have about 49,000 miles on it. Most of it towing my 30' 9000 pound Airstream travel trailer. I live in Northern Illinois. Been as far north as Fargo, as far east as Cape Charles Virginia, as far south as Key West, as far west as Yellowstone, and many places in between. My Ram has never let me down and no major repairs. Real shame that they no longer let you order the MegaCab or higher trim levels with the 6.4 Hemi V8. This engine has plenty of power for any situation I have towed in.View attachment 77411

Awesome pic and perfect rake when loaded. Power on!

I’ve had my 22 bighorn 3500 srw since just before Labor Day last year. I will likely turn over 10k miles this week. I had what I considered a break in oil change around 2k miles and the second oil change at about 8000. I plan to keep it on a 6k oil change schedule +/-1k.

We’ve taken our camper to a local park several times but Memorial Day weekend was the first time we took a longish trip - 500 or so round trip. So I’ve finally got the feel for it towing and love the convenience of a 50 gallon tank, which was one of my must haves when finally getting a new truck, along with 4:10 gears.

I've had my 2500 Laramie 3K payload, 15K max tow since March of 22 and after our 3K trip to Sante Fe last week, I have the Sport Package, Off Road Package, Snow Chief, Billet Silver and put the AEV retractable side steps, did a bed coating and a Fab Four matrix winch bumper along with an after market rear bumper and I installed the rear bed step. The pic below is before the after market stuff. View attachment 59462

I've watched an equivalent truck price go up from the 63,600 on my MSRP to about 73K since then. I have 13K miles and some change on it and have the Hemi. About 60% of the mileage is towing our 28 foot single slide Aspen Trail 2340 BHSWE travel trailer with the Road Armor after market suspension and the new Good Year Endurance tires on it (for this trip). The rest f the mileage is transfer station duty and local light off roading. I have a Jeep Renegade for daily driving. I'm running under 7K lbs loaded towing and around 800 lbs tongue weight. I absolutely love how it tows compared to the previous 21 Built to serve 1500. And I NEVER have to worry about payload anymore...

Happy Camper Roll ON! Did you have to do any programming for retractable running boards or plug and play? That is why I did not upgrade yet
 
Three years three onths now and it is mostly our tow beast, appliance or big item to transfer station, light off roading/Nat forest roads. We have 26,K on it with about 60% towing. I tried it as a daily driver for its first year and ended up with a Jeep Gladiator. That's for the true off roading. Just did a weekend two nights camping about 450 miles.
