    I've owned Ram's for the last 24 years personally and my family has since the 1950s. I have 4 sitting in my barn currently. The Cummins diesel is a great motor and the truck itself is good. As far as stock HP and get up and go, the Ford 6.7L beats the Ram all day in seat of the pants power. As far as reliability and ease of repair, I'll keep my Cummins. I'm glad to see they are taking off in Australia. The off-road and touring modifications you boys have been doing for years finally can start to be refined and built for USA trucks. You nailed it when you said that Australian made has built a reputation for quality that others look up to. I agree with that. Now to design one of your PCOR beds with the rear tray that also allows a hideaway gooseneck hitch. Find a quality electric locker for the front and rear on the AAM axles that can handle the higher torque and HP. Also, test a snorkel kit that makes sure it allows enough CFM to flow through it to support the turbo(s) on the Ram. Lastly, one free mod that produces great sound out of the turbo, remove the silencer ring from the turbo inlet and let her whistle. Merry Christmas from Texas!

    The grass is always greener on the other side. I'm in the US and would love to have access to the LC's you have there. Here, Rams are a dime a dozen. And while Cummins can't be beat, they unfortunately wrapped a Dodge around it. Sharp truck, but don't expect the reliability of the a LC.

    Thanks for another great video! Any chance you are going to add air lockers to the build? Can’t wait to see what it does on an adventure. Really appreciate the sacrifice you and your family make to share your content with us!

    That is an awesome setup. Not so over the top as the first 2500, I would definitely put the front bar from the first 2500 on this one and I'd probably stick a fridge centre console in the cab and tint the windows as dark as I legally can. Now.....all that.s left to do is win the lottery!

    Awesome Ram! Next modification - Airbags on the front to make it fully height adjustable - you won't regret it once you can dump it on the bump stops for the inner city carparks and loading the truck.

    An idea on your roof racks, have you ever considered an extruded (or expanding) foam underlay molded to the roof? It would add sound and heat isolation, extra load capacity, stability if combined with a lower profile aerodynamic shape be a game changer.
