Hello from Youngstown, I belong to another dodge forum, but I was on it today and it hasn't been updated in about a year, SOOOOO, I found this forum.
The wife and I are looking at trading in our 2011 dodge Citadel to get a 1500 ram Laramie or limited or Laramie longhorn, our boys aren't getting any smaller so we need more room.
What I'm looking for is information on pros and cons for the trucks. I read on here that some people have dislikes for the under seat storage and lack of telescoping steering column. Neither of those are a huge concern to us. We're questioning the rambox option, we have hockey equipment and other sports equipment that has to fill the bed, so I thought the rambox would be a nice addition, we've had 2 avalanches in the past and we used the side storage but the avalanche was taller and my wife's short lol, so you do the math. Also, thoughts on the multi function tailgate, we're focused on used and that's a tough option to find used at this moment, in fact we've struggled to find it new, have succeeded but it was difficult. My wife's going to drive this daily, I have a 2500 ram for myself, so this is more focused towards her, so I'm not sure if the tailgate is a huge issue or not. I'm concerned what the future will hold for that tailgate, I read online that the wiring and electrical system for that tailgate is very complex and that's a concern of mine.
How about the panaromic roof, anyone had issues with it? Leaks? Car wash issues?
Also, feedback on the adjustable air ride suspension, I've driven trucks with it and it rides amazing, my concern is longevity, is it going to develop leaks down the road, start giving issues.
What kind of major issues have people run into with their trucks? Frame, suspension, drive train, anything and everything, I'd like to hear all negative feedback as well.
