Used 2002 Dodge Ram Pickup 1500 Consumer Reviews
Great refined Truck
This is one great Truck! It handling is far superior to any truck I have driven, I have a lot of fun following a mustang on a narrow mountain road and watching the expression on the driver in front of me when he has a heck of a time to get rid of me. I have loaded this truck to and beyond its load capacity and it has performed well as far as handling and power is concerned. As soon as you have the over drive off the annoying Down shift up shift cycle is avoided most of the time. Did I mention that it is huge inside? You have ample room and with a folding metal tray under the rear seats you have plenty of space to load whatever your heart desires.
Buy the 5.9L
The 2002 rams interior was nicer than the 2003, i owned both. Dodge cheaped out on the 2003. Seems to be more plastic. More plastic on doors, no overhead sunglasses holder, trim on bottom of doors is gone, no tinted window on 2003. Wish i would have stayed with the 2002. Anybody that says the 4.7L is a better choice than the 5.9L, never had one.

Rides and pulls great - horrible gas mileage
2002 Dodge Ram 1500 SB 6cyl Review
My 2002 Dodge P/U has 10k mile on it now and I have had it for about 9 months. I have no complaints about the vehicle at all. It is fun to drive, gets reasonable fuel economy (3.7L) averages 18.0 mpg. Clutching/shifting is easy and precise. Probably the biggest item of note is the excellent braking - very nice. The oil is easy to change and overall I just like it.
Great Truck
Fun to drive, looks great. Handles very well. I have the V8 automatic ST.
