Picked a friend up at Dodge dealership today and sat in a new 19 Bighorn.
Listed at 60k Canadian,right at same price point as my loaded XLT wth 302A package.
Didnt look hard at the window sticker for options but sitting in the truck Im pretty impressed with the interior.
The cloth bucket seats felt very comfy with nice fabric,controls felt and looked good,center console has tons of storage and configurations.
The under floor storage compartments have always been awesome...
Didnt have that monster 12 inch nav screen(just the little 8 incher)....which still looked huge.
Overall the interior is pretty impressive,and really seems to make my 17 interior look...well dated.
If theres one spot Ford needs to improve on its the interior of the F150 as far as Im concerned.
Ive watched alot of videos on the new Ram....I can see why they rate the interior higher than the F150s
My truck is now 6 years old...I bought the highest trim level Lariat with the luxury package and my interior is still quite nice and suitable to me.
That said yes the Rams have always had very nice interiors. Personally I think Ram builds a better truck than Ford.
Lucky for Ford they got all the fanboys to drink the kool aid so they have a pretty strong following.
I think the interiors on all trucks nowadays look pretty good.
I dont like the column shifter in the GMs and I don't like the **** shifter on the Rams.

why didnt you buy one then?
in my experience, fca products are polished turds. they look great sitting on the showroom, but they fall apart after only a few years which is why they give big discounts and the resale value is much lower than everyone else. if you lease or trade before the warranty is up, i guess you might be fine with a ram. My f150 hasnt been problem free by any stretch, but its been a whole lot better than the last fca product i had.

Had I known I would have to replace the timing chain every two years I probably would have...In my experience.
I dont buy a truck to re sell so resale means nothing to me. If thats your big concern just lease.
My son works at a 'Buy Here Pay Here' place right behind our largest Dodge dealer and I have looked over the RAMs a few times.
In my opinion:
No 360 degree camera
No tailgate step
No Power Deployable Running boards
No center console shifter
Pro trailer backup
Bed side steps
No FORScan to customize the truck! Can't live without:
No double honk
Secure idle
Auto relock
Engine & transmission temp
Global window up/down
Bambi mode
Panic alarm 2 press
Turn Signal Flash #
No Livinitup to help us all with FORScan
When I Build a RAM on website it costs more than my new 2018 Lariat and can't get all the features and if you add air suspension it is $3500 more than my new 2018 Lariat. For me, I also don't like the styling of the front of the RAM. That being said, I don't like the 2 bars on the new 2018 F150s either.
