I went in the other day just to see how they had an orange Ram on the lot and after 2 weeks of debating left with a 2019 Laramie Crew Cab 4x4 with Ram Boxes in Granite Crystal Metallic. Ended up around $45k out the door for $57k sticker.

I had a 2016 Express Quad cab 4x4 before. I got the quad cab during one of their 20% off sales and was pretty happy with it until my wife got a Mustang ecoboost Premium. I held out, but Android auto/carplay, leather, remote start, telescoping steering, etc finally tempted me. The quad cab while technically bigger than my 2005 Frontier Crew cab, but always felt like there was less room in the back seat. The new crew cab might be overkill, but I'm happy with it.

I'm hoping it is just the Laramie Bridgestone tires, but this one doesn't have near the initial turn in my old one had and more body roll. We drove a new big horn to compare and it did handle much better with different tires. Neither were air suspension and both had 20" wheels so everything else is supposed to be the same. I think these tires are more comfort focused than I prefer. Almost walked away because of it.
