Douge 2010 Ram HD 2500 Laramie Review - A six-speed automatic, the 66RFE (based on the heavy-duty 68RFE) replaced the speed, providing a lower first and higher top gear. The Ram Heavy Duty gained a torque boost to 800 lb-ft, providing best in-class towing of 22,750 lb and a gross weight rating of 30,000 lb. It was now available with the RamBox in all cost classes. Towing capacity was increased for the Hemi as well as the diesel, and midyear seat-mounted side airbags will become standard along with a black grille and bumpers on ST. Most Ram 2500 buyers opt for the crew cab and SLT or Outdoorsman; while most Ram 3500 buyers go for the Crew Cab and Laramie or Longhorn. Some rumors have Dodge forsaking its exemption from a diesel exhaust liquid (DEF), in pursuit of higher gas mileage, for 2012 or 2013.

The additional power was handled by a brand spanking new, higher-rated torque converter, which was better integrated for higher towing capability. In addition, a brand spanking new dual-rear wheel axle with four.10 Gear ratio, new rear-axle pinion, new spiral gears, upgraded bearings, and finned aluminum differential cover were used with the maximum towing package; a brand spanking new engine-mounted oil-to-coolant transmission cooler and upgraded power steering oil coolers would even be used. The result was a best in-class GCVW of 30,000 pounds and towing of 22,700 pounds. The high tow ratings met all 2013 model-year SAE standards.
2010 Ram Heavy Duty with duallies
The new midline navigation method was available with the hard drive stereo. Ram 3500 also had been optional polished aluminum dual rear wheels (optional on SLT, standard on Laramie). Both had a crew cab option. Half of the Ram Heavy Duty pickup buyers used them for work, the other half for recreation.
By the time they had to give the Ram back, it had established itself as what we'd hoped would be a permanent part of our long-term fleet. However, that is not how the method works, regrettably. They had to accept that our trusty hard-work in pickup was moving on.
With no significant service issues for the period of our long-term check, the total cost to maintain the Ram was $1045.49 for services. The first journeys included an oil modify, tire rotation, and full inspection, and each cost less than $200. Its 15,000-mile visit, included the aforementioned services, and a liquid modify in the front and rear differentials. That service cost $735.61. Otomodification
