Figured I’d share some of my rams we have owned the last few years.

My biggest ram addiction was my 2000 Cummins that I modified for years. It made ~850 hp and ran a 10.97 @ 124 in the quarter. I recently sold it but it will always be my favorite ride.

My wife owned an 06 1500 for a few years and she really liked that truck as well. Although it did develop some rust that we had fixed but ended up getting rid of it before it came back elsewhere.

The then bought a new at the time 14 that has been a great truck! It’s nothing fancy but has done everything we asked of it and has been very reliable.

Just in the last couple months we decided to upgrade my truck(Tacoma) to a ram, and in all the searching ended up with 2 newer rams.

My wife ended up with a 2015 Sport with air suspension and lots of goodies already on it. The only thing we have done to it is the CRT leveling links up front(not in pics).

I was able to get a 2018 Sport thanks to the big markdowns and employee pricing. Really liking this truck so far as it’s way nicer then anything else I’ve owned.

And here is a pic of them all together. Still trying to sell the 14 since they wouldn’t give us much on trade

I’m in centra Ohio. 15,500 is the best they would do. The truck was just buffed and ceramic coated a month ago and interior is in awesome shape due to us using husky mats and wet Okole seat covers.

Sadly that has become a “ thing “ with dealerships anymore. They want to give you next to nothing money wise, but as soon as you trade in guess how much markup is placed on it. I get it as my buddy is a GM and explains they are borrowing the money to pay off your car. While it’s sitting in their lot, no money is being made.

Most people don’t want the headaches associated with selling themselves. Especially with all of the tire kickers that will be contacting you. Good luck with selling that 2014 and definitely enjoy both of those Sports.

Got Mother Nature and some bad luck to thank for this sight.

About 5 small dents and a hand full of scratches across fender and hood from a pool umbrella! Not something I wanted to fix before selling this truck.

The white one got a couple scuffs by tailgate but it will come out. Doesn’t look to have actually hit my buddies ford I had sitting there.

Would have been a good time to upgrade to a sport hood if we were keeping it. Lol

I wanted a sport hood on my last one, but the dealerships weren’t willing to sell them for anything less then $1500.00.
