Build Thread: 2014 Ram Tradesman Express "La Ballena"

How's she run with the v6? I have been eyeballing a tradesman myself.

Its great, as long as your not towing or looking to race down the road. I wish it was geared slightly lower but I found such a great deal I couldn't pass it up...

Its reminds me very much of my old 4cyl tacomas, enough for what you need although maybe not what you want. It's not anemic but it isn't fast.

Don't need fast man. Think with the lower gearing option she could pull a camping trailer? I don't mean all the time, but if a few weekends a year or what not, we could pull a 26ft camper or something? newer lighterwieght one of course. I was hellbent on the rebel, but...had a change of heart when I saw a tradesman that the local dealer done up with bumpers, lift, wheels etc. for 10,000 less with the gear. Makes sense.
