1996 Ram Owner Review - 2 years

This has been a good truck in some ways, and a poor vehicle in others. When it's working, it is the best. Good ride, quiet, powerful and great for towing. I have had some problems with reliability, and that's my only problem with the truck. I hope that Daimler helps Dodge figure out some of that quality stuff.
Good truck overall

I bought this truck because I wanted a vehicle that could do almost everything, and be a solid vehicle to start out with. I got that and more. I just wish that it didnt cost as much as a BMW to maintain. To date I have replaced the head gaskets, one transmission, and am on the third transfer case at 100,000 miles. I have the truck on 33" tires, and It is known to be the slowest truck of all my friends (318 v8). I dont beat on it, or take it further than it should go. But if you dont mind those few things, my truck will do everything and way more.

This truck has over 200,000 miles on it. Had to rebuild engine and transmission, but well worth it. We were forewarned about automatic dodge ram transmissions anyways, so that was expected. The only real problem has been the fuel pump. That's been replaced twice, but I think it's a quality issue. Be careful about the retailer and quality of your fuel pump. Great for going over curbs, rocks, etc. Fits in places you would NEVER expect! It can be challenging to get into 4WD. It's comfortable on long road trips. The rear seat folds up which gives you more space. It's quite roomy in the back for passengers considering it's a truck!
I like it

Have never owned a Dodge pickup until I bought this one. Have only had it 5 months but use it in traveling sales job. My experience with this one, which is excellent, will probably cause me to consider a new one or upgrading a few years.
I love my truck
