Review

This truck has TONS of power. Not good for city commuting but MUCH fun when your forcast indicates 10"+ snow. A great and reliable vehicle! I have the sport edition with the bed cover.

Favorite Features

My favorite features are the 4 wheel drive and the Infinity sound system!

Suggested Improvements

Such a huge engine. Not practical for city running but I bet I could pull a tow truck out of the ditch!

Review

I haven't had the truck for very long but it is a great truck. It has 188,000 miles on it and is still running strong! It drives great in the snow and pulls like a beast. It has only had regular matenance and a new transmission. I love it. Its got a 5.9 liter v8 so I don't expect any sort of good gas mileage from it but that's okay it's a good truck. And one of my head lights its full of water. I would like to know how that happened!

Favorite Features

4 wheel drive, comfort, power

Suggested Improvements

Wind shield sprayers, paint

Review

You want a work horse the rams your choice. I have 350+km on my beast. It plowed through the winter, with out any mech failure. When I first purchased the truck there was a stutter/hesitation in between 2nd and 3rd, .. Main source of problem was the rusted muffler and its metal chunks flyin around, same with the catalyst, after replacing by myself the problem disappeared as well as the annoying clanking sound... It was not the tranny, typically with the ram tranny of this year it will hold in second gear until you lift your foot off the gas, or just floor it to get up to speed.. Remember. The 318 is a beast and it needs to be driven a little hard cause low rpm and low speed and high gear= stress

Favorite Features

The 318/5.2 is a beast with loads of power to spare. passing with a trailer full of gear is a breeze, parts easy to find and repair yourself. and its not a FORD

Suggested Improvements

the interior materials are cheep.

Review

I bought my Ram used last year, and it runs great. The 5.9 V8 is awesome, fast and powerful for a truck this size, this old. The interior is great, really comfortable. Two problems though. The cupholders. Every time I put a drink in my cupholder, it'll fall when I take a curve. I actually installed another cupholder on the middle hump in the floor. The paint. is peeling bad, and shouldn't peel so soon. Plus, bad mileage.

Favorite Features

Poweful, fast 5.9 engine. Body styling. Interior styling.

Suggested Improvements

Paint, cupholders, and mileage

Review

Not bad for an almost quarter million mile truck. Dodge's are not known for gas mileage but strong engine. Big interior for a regular cab.

Favorite Features

Large regular cab
