Looks Good, But...
Love the look, the Sport package, and the dependability of the 4x4. However, not enough power w/5.2L, 5-Spd, & Towing Pkg when towing a pop-up. However, putting a Quad in the bed did not affect drive. Also, already need rear-main replaced, and sometimes the cruise will not stay steady on highway.
Extremely disappointing
My Ram 1500 is really a disappointment. I met more 1500 Ram owners that say the same. My truck has 37,000 and the cruise control, steering pump, electrical system, and power locks all had to be repaired. If that wasn't bad enough the front brake pads and rotors had to be repair/replaced at 12,500. From what other dodge owns tell me the transmission should go out soon. Before buying a RAM ask the owns that have one what they think of their truck.
damn good truck
im the second owner of this truck,only part changed has been the starter at 88000. It has been real dependable.the first owner was a friend and he just changed oil,nothin else had to be replace,except like brakes and tune ups.
I Love My Ram
I Love My Ram. This is an excellant truck. And it's finally paid for.
EXCELLENT!
I've had no problems what so ever from my truck, it's a keeper! Still looks great and drives excellent!
