2012 3500 srw Laramie 6 speed manual. I bought the truck new, drove to Missouri to get it. Deleted it at 5k miles, 67k now. Truck has H&S mini maxx, 5” exhaust, afe intake, led light bar in grille. Love the truck, the only thing I think I would change is it doesn’t have rear heated seats, which would be nice.
I know rams aren’t that popular, but my first diesel was a 96 12valve Cummins and I put that thing through hell. Big injectors, big turbo, suspension stops and 1000lbs hanging in front sled pulls most weekends during the summer at the local fairs, 2000* egts and it never let me down.

2016 Cummins. Bought new, now at 92k miles.
Only thing I don’t like is it eats tires. Chinese tires last 8-10k, expensive tires (toyo, nitto, etc) last about 15k.

And that snow- 3 seasons ago when we (Sierras) supposedly had the deepest snowpack in the US.

What the heck!! What are you alignment specs? Worn out steering components? I have over 40k on my toyo a/t's and expect 20-30 more, I know others that have done this also. What's going on up front on yours?

It eats them on all 4 corners. I’ve had it aligned 4x now (last being about a month ago) and everytime it’s been right in spec. I’ve also gone to different alignment shops every time.

And nothing worn out, I bought the truck brand new off the lot. The stock Firestone tires were showing wires at 9000 miles, front & back.

Could be a combo of where I live & the big torque on these newer diesels. I’m up on the mountain so all our roads are windy & old. However my last truck was an 05 Cummins and I put probably 30k miles on those tires when I sold it & they were still 1/2 tread.

I’ve also brought the truck into the dealer twice to have the front end looked at, as well as 3 other private shops trying to get different eyes on it & nobody has found anything wrong.

Pre DEF, correct?
That'll be an easy one to sell when you choose to.

Yes it is pre def and its not deleted.
It was a late 2012 build, I ordered it in May of 2012. Its a rare truck, most crew cabs do not have the rear DVD, dual transmission coolers etc. it stickered in higher than a dealer lot build limited longhorn.

Those trucks look impressive. My Ram 3500 dually is currently in a work in progress state. I have a new set of dually wheels for it to be installed later this week. The previous wheels had a corrosion problem caused by salt last winter. It's not beyond repair but I've decided to get new wheels just for the style upgrade.
