I’m trying to buy a 2011 5.7l ram 1500 but it’s got a tick that sounds pretty bad but it fades away in the vid, I’ve heard these ticks are normal when it’s cold and go away or are normal all the time in some cases.121k miles guy wants 9800 that’s really good imo I NEED A PICKUP ASAP
If that noise was when engine was cold when it was just started, that could an exhaust leak at the manifold due to broken exhaust studs. Very common and a pain to fix, especially if the stud has broken off in the cylinder head and there’s nothing to grab.

i am now noticing this is probably an outdoorsman edition?

well if it’s just an exhaust leak I don’t care I’ll buy it I was looming at it closer and I noticed it has a color matched grill with the towhooks in the front, is this an outdoorsman edition??
