We just picked up a 19' 2500 ram 4x4 6.4L with the 8 speed transmission and 4.10 gearing. I am very pleased with the performance. Coming from a nissan titan its night and day difference. We definitely have room to grow with this truck. Most of the complaints pre 2019 were that the 6 speed transmission shift points were off. Not having driven a pre 2019 model I can not attest to this but I am pleased with the 8 speed. We looked at the f250 6.2 but could not find one with the gearing I wanted (4.30) I know the 3.73 would have been just fine for the mojo but if we ever got a camper I knew I would have wanted the towing gears. The base model ram (tradesman) is actually decently equipped compared to the ford XL. There were several changes to the ram line up in 2019 all of which I think really helped the trucks stand out. Wouldnt hesitate to buy one again

The RAM 2500 mega cab with the 6.4 bed would be my upgrade option. My friend has a 2015 2500 diesel and wishes he'd gone gas, but is glad he doesn't have to deal with DEF.

One thing I was assuming before I bought the truck was that the backseat legroom would be one sacrifice made. My Titan had lots of room in the backseat and was something I really liked about the truck. After digging a little more the rear legroom was exactly the same in the 2019 Ram as it was in my Titan. I have been in a mega cab RAM and it is nice but I don't feel at all the need to have that over the legroom I have now. Plus I can still pull the truck and boat in my barn and shut the door without having to unhitch

With the DEF systems and particulate filters and EGRs now a days if I ever bought a HD truck I would go gas too. I’ve been keeping an eye on the new Ford 7.3 Godzilla. Seems the goal was to go with tried and true simple technology for longevity.
