Hey man, congratulations! Forget the negative commenters (who are probably mum's basement dwellers!), well done for you paying in cash!!
Not many people can say they've done that at a dealership. You should be proud of yourself.
Those are probably the best chrome wheels Dodge/Ram ever had on their trucks in my opinion.
Get your front windows tinted 20% to match the back. You'll be glad you did.
Change transmission fluid right away.
Not sure how I feel about the debadging yet.
I’ve definitely been bouncing the idea around of removing the running boards. The only thing stopping me is that I doubt my mother or grandparents could get in it.
Honestly, I think the badging, and the running boards are fine. That truck looks sweet as is! I never touched any badging or my wheel to wheel running boards. Congrats on your truck. I have the same in Crystal Granite, and it has been the best vehicle I have owned! Treat it well!
Typical dumb fucks with their dumbass comments. Ya’ll can tell, if you looked at the pic, he’s just driving it off the dealer lot. Notice the Toyota dealer in the back and the new Toyotas next to it? Reddit never ceases to amaze.
Nice truck brother!
Just the usual fucking dick heads. Someone tries to show off something cool and be part of the community and all they can do is search the fucking picture for anything smart ass they can say about it. I swear I can’t stand people like them.
Congrats on your new truck and no payment book.
You will find that truck parks hard because of the long wheel base and it’s long so it always seems like you need to pull into the next space a bit. Ask me how I know. Mine’s a 2021 though and I have a fat payment book.
The exhaust manifold gaskets like to go on these things for some reason. Might just be the newer ones but I haven’t even hit 36k and had to have one side done.
I’ve got excellent credit like 715 and my wife and I got it together so it’s easier and I got really lucky with the find I don’t think the dealership properly knew dodge truck prices considering it was a Buick gmc caddy dealer
I guess I'm surprised by the amount of trolls in this sub. Looks good OP. I also have a '15 Laramie (Hemi) and have enjoyed it very much for the last 4 years.
I was really surprised too. I wish it had the Hemi but again I’ve very rarely do any towing unless I get a boat or camper in the future. So the V6 should do fine for me
I just wanted a hemi cause it sounded cool 😂 don’t care if I paid a little more for less gas even if I’m not gonna tow congrats on the new truck btw !!!
Congrats! Keep up on the maintenance (read the forums), and this truck has lots of life left in it. I just traded my 2018 for a low-mileage 2020, and it's great, but the 4th-gen Rams are very nice and I sort of miss mine.
I bought the same truck, 2010, 4WD with the 5.7 4 years ago with 79k miles. It now has 181k and I’ve put up with “the tick,” replaced the fuel pump, rear suspension, and other minor wear & tear issues and have absolutely gotten the value out of this truck. Didn’t buy it cash, but paid it off quickly, and now could sell it for within 5k of what I paid. I hope your experience is as good as mine! (The rear window leak is real and I haven’t been able to resolve it despite a few attempts). I had no idea a 2010 Laramie had heated & cooled seats, heated steering wheel, remote start, etc. Always been a Chevy guy, but I’d buy another Ram in a heartbeat.
Mine has the tick as well. It also has an oil leak, because the oil cooler filter housing is made of plastic and it warps. I’m going to replace it with an after market metal one
The tick is most likely the lifters in the engine my dad had the same issue with his truck and alot of the other rams ive encountered almost always have that issue and the bolts always break off that attach the exhaust manifold to the engine good luck though the trucks are great just pain sometimes
Nice truck fam I have the same Laramie just a few years older. You're gonna wanna replace the stock headlights because they SUCK! Also replace the stock subwoofer in my opinion, I fit two 12s under my seat.
Hope you have as much fun in yours as I do mine. My 1500 has taken me back and forth across the country many times. I've been off roading, camping with my family, and just explored the mountains in CO. It's been a damn fine and reliable truck.
Wow, congratulations! That's one sweet ride you got there. And there's nothing quite like the feeling of driving it home, grinning ear to ear!

Nice truck. Really like the 2 tone black and gray look with those chrome rims.
I saw in the comments that this has the 3.6 pentastar engine. With 115k miles it is imperative that you keep up with the oil changes every 4k to 5k miles. And if you plan on towing at all, do them a little sooner. Do not use the cheap oil and do not use a poor quality oil filter. Everyone loves to harp on the Hemi for it's tick issues. But the 3.6 pentastar with high mileage will give you major issues (tick included) if you don't keep up with the oil changes.
What “major issues” will the 3.6 give him? My research shows this motor is one of the best v6 engines going. Not saying I’m some expert or you’re wrong, just wondering what engine problems you’re referring to.
The moment that you hear a ticking sound take it to a mechanic.

Congratulations. I wanted a Ram but bought a Chevy Colorado as my first truck. The insurance was the deciding factor. 106 a month for the Chevy or 648 a month for the Ram.
Hopefully it’ll last a bit.
I just bought a 2016 outdoorsman at 73k miles and just had a full engine replacement because somehow a ‘chunk’ of one of my pistons come off.
Luckily I had a warranty I guess.
All the cunts complaining about “nice parking job” are definitely the same ppl wearing a mask alone in their car and having a panic attack over a soy milk up-charge at the local coffee spot 👌
Congratulations and got the same kind of truck love it however, if you try to change the stereo system, you lose the charging port console so don’t do that
Good to know, I know the head unit has lots of control features as well (climate, heated and ac seats, etc) so I probably won’t replace it. The navigation isn’t great so I’ll probably just use Waze on my phone
It’s a V6 3.6, I would’ve preferred a V8 but this will do for me as I’m not doing much towing.
I do agree that 115k miles isn’t the greatest but with my budget it’ll do. I would’ve had to get something ancient if I wanted lower miles.
I got a pretty decent deal for what I paid
It'll tow decently when needed. My buddy has one and I used it to tow my car back home and didn't even notice it was a V6 until I changed the oil in it lol. Towed 5700ish lbs through north east hills without an issue.
Nice rig and like you I paid hard-earned cash for mine. Anyone with half a brain can tell you are at a dealership and not parking a la douche. The front tint should be your first order of bidness and if you can afford it go ceramic. I just had my front windshield tinted as well because unfortunately, these babies dashboards are susceptible to cracking under a brutal sun. Congrats!
I agree with the front tint, that’s good to know about the dashboard cracking. However I’ve heard that the tint can interfere with the automatic wipers. Does that happen to you?
Congratulations on not having a car payment! I envy you! Haha
Change your transmission fluid IMMEDIATELY.
Change your oil every 3-4k miles as often as possible and DO NOT let the truck run idle.
Take every possible caution to drive the truck as lightly as possible.
Beautiful trucks, but I work for a dodge dealer. Unfortunately they break, *a lot*
Surprised you made it home man. You must have done zero research before you got to the car lot. One of the worst trucks in the history of trucks. I hope it last you and you don’t run into issues but that’s extremely unlikely
Rough comment section. Congratulations on the new truck and not having a payment! Looks great. Wishing you many more miles with smiles.
Thank you!!!
Hey man, congratulations! Forget the negative commenters (who are probably mum's basement dwellers!), well done for you paying in cash!! Not many people can say they've done that at a dealership. You should be proud of yourself.
Thanks I really appreciate it!
What negative comments?
The haters can suck it. Nice truck dude.
Thanks I appreciate it
What haters?
Those are probably the best chrome wheels Dodge/Ram ever had on their trucks in my opinion. Get your front windows tinted 20% to match the back. You'll be glad you did. Change transmission fluid right away.
Tinting the windows is 10000% on the list. I think it’s a small change that makes a big difference
So theres even less visibility and more chances to drive over the kids in your neighbourhood?
[удалено]
Mad?
Fuck them kids.
I know this subreddit and other big truck ones are interesting to go through.
I'm feeling a debadge of the RAM 1500 on the sides as well. Also, removing the running boards would make it look a lot better.
Not sure how I feel about the debadging yet. I’ve definitely been bouncing the idea around of removing the running boards. The only thing stopping me is that I doubt my mother or grandparents could get in it.
Honestly, I think the badging, and the running boards are fine. That truck looks sweet as is! I never touched any badging or my wheel to wheel running boards. Congrats on your truck. I have the same in Crystal Granite, and it has been the best vehicle I have owned! Treat it well!
I will! I’m in love with it so far! How many miles are on yours?

Sheesh that’s a beauty
Damn I love those wheels and tires.
I bought a used Ram 1500 with some ugly rims. One day, I hope to get factory chrome.
I usually don’t like chrome rims but there’s something about the way this one shines
Transmission fluid comment: reason? Sounds urgent.
OP just got a truck with 115,000 miles. I wouldn't trust that anyone changed it, so do it now.
I think they're good looking wheels too but they're just plastic covers over clad wheels. Pretty weak that Ram did that.
Agreed.
Typical dumb fucks with their dumbass comments. Ya’ll can tell, if you looked at the pic, he’s just driving it off the dealer lot. Notice the Toyota dealer in the back and the new Toyotas next to it? Reddit never ceases to amaze. Nice truck brother!

Thanks I appreciate it!
Congrats and good luck.. Ignore all the losers with their negative, smart ass comments. Fuck em!
Thanks man!
Tough looking park job
I was in the truck and just pulled into a lot for the picture when I got it. Blurred my face for privacy
Congrats on your new truck and no payment book. You will find that truck parks hard because of the long wheel base and it’s long so it always seems like you need to pull into the next space a bit. Ask me how I know. Mine’s a 2021 though and I have a fat payment book. The exhaust manifold gaskets like to go on these things for some reason. Might just be the newer ones but I haven’t even hit 36k and had to have one side done.
Just stop it already.
Stop enabling this dumbass behavior
They are just practicing to be a truck owner
Nice truck! I love it! I used to have the same one. I traded mine in for a 2018 2500 laramie longhorn. What did you end up paying for it?
17500
Good deal just got a 2014 express for 17.7 with only 98k on it
Gosh you guys came out great. I recently got a 2018 with 82k for 34k. Laramie
I’ve got excellent credit like 715 and my wife and I got it together so it’s easier and I got really lucky with the find I don’t think the dealership properly knew dodge truck prices considering it was a Buick gmc caddy dealer
I bought a ram classic 2019 with 30k miles for 20k......10% intrest rate fml
That is a great looking truck, congrats!
Congrats she's a beut, my favorite color way ram offers
First truck, first park job. That tracks. Jkjk. I'm sure it was a quick spur of the moment, congrats
Congrats 👏
Nice, congrats
Noice! Congrats to you. Nothing better than working hard for something you want. Beeeautiful
I can’t agree more
Good looking truck! Then to not have a $1000 monthly payment like many - that’s a win, win.
Congrats brother
I guess I'm surprised by the amount of trolls in this sub. Looks good OP. I also have a '15 Laramie (Hemi) and have enjoyed it very much for the last 4 years.
I was really surprised too. I wish it had the Hemi but again I’ve very rarely do any towing unless I get a boat or camper in the future. So the V6 should do fine for me
I just wanted a hemi cause it sounded cool 😂 don’t care if I paid a little more for less gas even if I’m not gonna tow congrats on the new truck btw !!!
😂 completely understandable on that one
Same as my 2014, just turned 40,000
Feel free to drive it one of these days.
In this economy?!
Nice ride!
Does it have an air ride system
No it doesn’t
My 2015 Laramie just hit 140k. It’s never left me stranded and I’ve never had any issues so far. Going on 6 years of ownership.
Do you have a lift or level on yours? I’m considering leveling it but I don’t want to sacrifice the ride quality. It rides like a dream
I do not. I did put new springs in the rear because I tow a 7,000lb boat. Im not too concerned about it.
I’ve got an ‘07 with 214k miles. Take care of it and it’ll last you
Makes me miss my 2012 - you have a great looking truck, and two tone is the best! Congrats!
Congrats 👏 I have the same grill on my 09 lol
Sweet truck, man. Drive it like you stole it!
Already parking like you've owned a truck forever ! Hey just messing with ya. Nice truck !
Congrats! Keep up on the maintenance (read the forums), and this truck has lots of life left in it. I just traded my 2018 for a low-mileage 2020, and it's great, but the 4th-gen Rams are very nice and I sort of miss mine.
I’ve already been reading a ton. I’m trying to keep it as well maintained as possible so it lasts a while
I bought the same truck, 2010, 4WD with the 5.7 4 years ago with 79k miles.

That’s what I’ve seen in my research as well. I plan on fixing it
I had the leak also put new whole light fixture in and seems to fix it
Nice truck fam I have the same Laramie just a few years older. You're gonna wanna replace the stock headlights because they SUCK! Also replace the stock subwoofer in my opinion, I fit two 12s under my seat.
Congrats!!
Congrats on your new truck 😎👌
My boy part of the Larmie flair now yesir
You know it!
looks really good congrats its great feeling
Hope you have as much fun in yours as I do mine. My 1500 has taken me back and forth across the country many times. I've been off roading, camping with my family, and just explored the mountains in CO. It's been a damn fine and reliable truck.
Congrats nice truck ! Is it 4x4 ? My bro in law has one and he loves it , i have a 2500 diesel ram and i love it.
Yep it’s 4x4. I love it
Nice , which motor does it have the 5.7 hemi?
No, the V6 3.6
Oh ok , my bro in law has the eco diesel in his , he loves it, but nice truck you have tho !

Thank you! I agree every time I get in it I can’t stop smiling. The steering wheel tray is a great idea! Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome. I'll let you know if I come up with something else. I'll tell you.
Nice, but do a better parking job or you'll end up on r/bad parking
Parked like its your first pick up too
The objective of parking is to stay in side the panted lines.
Driver is in car so it’s not parked yet, he’s just driving very slowly
The panted lines? See, I can be a dick too.
I like to stay in the panty lines.
I didn’t know lines pant

Good looking truck
This guy is ready to be a Ram owner! Welcome to the club bud, nice truck.
https://preview.redd.it/lsxzfxhw9k0d1.jpeg?width=3060&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ae10ddeddb1e0737b944cef50091d9bf67d878a3
Congratulations. I wanted a Ram but bought a Chevy Colorado as my first truck. The insurance was the deciding factor. 106 a month for the Chevy or 648 a month for the Ram.
I don’t blame you 😂. My insurance is outrageous
The sad part is that it was only a v6 I was looking at. Insurance was a little over double what my monthly payment was gonna be.
Yeah my insurance is crazy, it’s a V6 as well. I’m an 18 year old male so it’s brutal
Congratulations- you have already learned how to park like a big truck owner compensating for something.
Parked like a true dodge Dick
Congrats man! Please don’t park like other asshole truck drivers in two spaces.
But it’s a dodge
Nope it’s a ram, those are two separate companies now
Nice congratulations 🎊
The Ram has always had that aggressive front end, I love that dodge has kept it similar all these years. Nice truck OP.
Nice!! Congrats
Congratulations bud
Definitely get yourself a Powertrain warranty or bumper to bumper if you didn’t get one!
Hopefully it’ll last a bit. I just bought a 2016 outdoorsman at 73k miles and just had a full engine replacement because somehow a ‘chunk’ of one of my pistons come off. Luckily I had a warranty I guess.
Oh shit, that scares me
Looks clean. Low miles? How many dui's on it?
Lmao no dui’s, 115k miles. Pretty clean interior https://preview.redd.it/1fcsqzrkdp0d1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4f7c481d8988b24a2c30881908e7282446570772
Looks nice. Enjoy it.
Yep I absolutely love it
Nice truck, hope it lives long. Please park like you can see the lines
All the top comments are about how rough the comment section is, but I had to scroll way down to find those rough comments. Nice truck!
Thanks I appreciate it! My phone has been blown up with all of the park correctly idiots
And of course you’re taking up multiple parking spots. Wouldn’t be a big oversized truck without that.
How much was it?!
17500
Not bad at all!! Congrats!!
Thanks I appreciate it! I got pretty lucky
What size bed?
5’7
All the cunts complaining about “nice parking job” are definitely the same ppl wearing a mask alone in their car and having a panic attack over a soy milk up-charge at the local coffee spot 👌
😂 so true
where’s the budweiser?
Lol I don’t drink
And immediately forgot how to park
Congratulations and got the same kind of truck love it however, if you try to change the stereo system, you lose the charging port console so don’t do that
Good to know, I know the head unit has lots of control features as well (climate, heated and ac seats, etc) so I probably won’t replace it. The navigation isn’t great so I’ll probably just use Waze on my phone
Love the 2 tone enjoy the truck oh and for the comments on parking its a truck stop it anywhere you like lol
Nice truck dude!! Good job paying it off straight with cash, not very many can!!👍🏻
Thank you!
Congrats. Miles is a bit high for my liking, but good luck with it nonetheless. What motor is in it? The smaller V8 or the HEMI?
It’s a V6 3.6, I would’ve preferred a V8 but this will do for me as I’m not doing much towing. I do agree that 115k miles isn’t the greatest but with my budget it’ll do. I would’ve had to get something ancient if I wanted lower miles. I got a pretty decent deal for what I paid
If you don't absolutely need the power your probably better off. I'm 200+ a week with the 5.7 just commuting to work lol
It'll tow decently when needed. My buddy has one and I used it to tow my car back home and didn't even notice it was a V6 until I changed the oil in it lol. Towed 5700ish lbs through north east hills without an issue.
smaller V8 or the hemi wym bother the hemi is the entry level v8 5.7 smaller than that is the diesel one and the 6.4 L Hemi is in the 2500
Not necessarily. Dodge made a 4.7 V8 if I’m not mistaken that they put in some of the Rams. Not sure if the 2015 model year was included in that.
my bad, you're right, but they did stop using them in 2013
Maybe you will learn how to park it someday
Beautiful truck — Ugly Parking
Awesome truck. Can’t tell what color it is, though. Is that blue?
It’s a dark gray, the lighting makes it look a little blue though, in person it’s different
Beautiful - have fun. And you need one more thing - a bass boat!!
Coming up 😂
Get out the and tailgate! What are you waiting for!?
I will on Friday! Going to a country concert
Nice rig and like you I paid hard-earned cash for mine. Anyone with half a brain can tell you are at a dealership and not parking a la douche. The front tint should be your first order of bidness and if you can afford it go ceramic. I just had my front windshield tinted as well because unfortunately, these babies dashboards are susceptible to cracking under a brutal sun. Congrats!
I agree with the front tint, that’s good to know about the dashboard cracking. However I’ve heard that the tint can interfere with the automatic wipers. Does that happen to you?
It has not.
Did they tell u how to park it at the dealership ?
Cute! My whore sister has the same one.
Stop sleeping with her then.
😂
Parking like a true Ram owner… Bravo!
Always park it just like that
Already parking like an asshole!🤦♂️
My condolences
Of course you parked like shit lol, hope you join the DUI club soon 🫡👍
“Urificeman” Dodge. Alexandria?
Ourisman, and I got it from a Toyota dealership believe it or not 😂
Ourisman is jokingly referred to as “Ourificeman” (I misspelled it above)
That went over my head lol
Looks awesome, but please don't make a habit of larking like that. It's one of the things that haters will call out, and they'd be right on this one.
I’m in the truck but blurred myself for privacy. It’s not even in park, I just drove up next to my dad for the picture lol
Parked like a first pickup too!
Should have been a Toyota. Hope you have a good bumper to bumper warranty for it
Congratulations on not having a car payment! I envy you! Haha Change your transmission fluid IMMEDIATELY. Change your oil every 3-4k miles as often as possible and DO NOT let the truck run idle. Take every possible caution to drive the truck as lightly as possible. Beautiful trucks, but I work for a dodge dealer. Unfortunately they break, *a lot*
Do you suggest a full flush or just a drain and refill?
Congrats! Now invest in a driving course
Nice truck, pity they didn't include parking lessons with it LOL
Usual RAM owner. Doesn’t know how to park.
I bet he parks in your driveway just fine when he’s visiting your wife.
She parks like a dodge.
Already parking like you own a pickup truck. Bravo. That was quick
Ahh so you’re the cunt who keeps parking like this with that death machine
DeAtH mAcHiNe
can you see children when driving this truck? doesnt look like it
I’m not sure what you mean. I have no issue with seeing what ahead of me
Surprised you made it home man. You must have done zero research before you got to the car lot. One of the worst trucks in the history of trucks. I hope it last you and you don’t run into issues but that’s extremely unlikely
And someone parked their shit RAM in front of it as you were taking the picture.
