Only 17 years old and bought the truck last month. 160,000 miles on it and it runs great. A lot of power, and can tow my pop's 28 ft boat with ease. It's hard on gas, that's it. Rides nices too. Just hope the tranny wont go like people say.

Bought this vehicle with 26,000 miles on it. Best truck I have ever owned! Have had no problems with transmision or engine. The power driver seat has enough options to give a very comfortable ride. Looking forward to many more years of great service from this vehicle.

It has been one of the best trucks I have ever had and I have had a lot of trucks. Also it is real reliable it can pull almost everthing and I have never had a problem with it.
Not bad

I bought this truck used in 2004 with about 49k on it. It's been a decent truck, but has no creature comforts at all, if that's important to you. It has decent power, but the suspension is pretty stiff, and I had to replace a head gasket. All in all, I'm not sure I would buy another Dodge.
I'm happy with this old Ram!

Okay, it obvious, this Ram is not going to give you great gas mileage. But to be honest this vehicle is not giving me much less than my 1999 Ford Windstar! I sold my 2006 Mazda5 to get this Ram (the M5 was too small for us and the gas mileage was eved worse!) This model seems to turn heads! Many people think it looks great. I have to agree. When I purchased this truck in late October 2006, my mechanic noted that there were no big problems. Not bad considering the mileage! There's more than enough room in our Sport model to take the the kids and their instruments to lessons.
A Nice Truck...For Looks That Is

Overall not a bad truck. Good for light duty work like hauling a few things on the back...but definitly not ideal for towing. Our struggles accelerating when pulling a trailor (probably because the truck is so heavy and lacks the power it needs to make up for the heavy body).

Other than the well known cracked dashboard syndrome these trucks inherited, I love my truck. Must have cat back duel exhaust. The sound and performance gain is well worth the $300. A truck that never failed me yet up here in upstate NY(knock on wood)

Burns a lot of oil, lifters ticking, blows a lot of blue smoke out of the exhaust
Not for me

If you're looking for a used p/u don't look at this one. I purchased our Dodge Ram 1500 Sport for $12,000 in Nov of 2006. I've since shelled out at least $7,000 in repairs. My main purpose to purchase this truck was to tow an 18' travel trailer. Sure it has no problems towing it, but the gas consumption drops to the floor! On a trip across Canada I had to stop every 250 KM to fill up the thirsty 85 L tank. Should have spent the extra $$$ to buy a used diesel truck.

So far I have not been able to get my wife out of it so I can drive. She never wants another car, don't know what to do about the price of gas? now I drive her van. It's made driving fun again . Only problem is the speakers don't fade on the knob, might be a lose wire.

I have bought this truck from a gentleman that had it for about 3 years and he told me it was a good one. I can say he was right, strong engine gives you the power you want when needed, I feel confident on it and is quite comfortable. You can haul tons of stuff, the folding back seat allows to do so, even when in a rainy day. I am having a little bit of an issue with a leak on the transmission fluid, but other than that this is an excellent vehicle. I will get a newer one as soon as I can.

I bought my truck four or five years ago, had around a hundred fifty grand on odometer. I fell in love with her curves and love the purr of the 5.2L V8, even if it is a little lacking in get up and go. It sounds great and looks good. Maintenance wise its been a pain. Im on the third replacement transmission, now the guys who replaced it put a three year one hundred fifty thousand mile guatantee on it. Im wet sanding it now shes getting straightened and painted in two weeks. I dont know why i keep on putting money in her? I think I ought to have my head examined. I have a 2020 ,F 150 that I only drive if the dodge is having something done to it. Its a thst purr. Ive got flowmaster duel exhaust on her. Sounds fast and furious. Its just not all that fast, lol.
Great pickup

I was the second owner of my 1999 1500, 2WD. It was "Plain Jane", had the V6, 5 speed, no frills (crank windows, etc.), 78k miles. Nine years later, I sold the truck with 288k on her. Replaced clutch at 185k; clutch looked good, throughout bearing was shredded. Replaced shocks just after clutch. Between 200k and 250k, replaced tie rod ends, water pump, oxygen sensor and idle control valve. AC was re-charged 2x, no system parts replaced. Rotors turned and new pads twice. Rear brakes were only cleaned and adjusted. Never touched the starter, alternator, or exhaust system. Completed fluid changes and routine maintenance over the years. An after-market stereo was in place when I purchased the pickup. Added a hitch, only occasional light towing duty (landscape trailer with yard waste). I added a dash mat protector early, no trouble with dash cracking that others have experienced. Very pleased with the '99 Dodge Ram 1500.
