Used 2005 Dodge Ram Pickup 1500 Consumer Reviews
I Love my dodge ram
I have had this truck for about 6 months and absolutely love it. Yes I have a hemi. Love the power and smooth ride mine is a special southern comfort edition. Black cherry paint with molded running boards and tauno cover. It also has embroidered seats all leather with a composite dash board. I use synthetic oil and have had no mechanical problems. Ride is great and it sits up high so seeing is easier for me at only 5'2". I have had nothing but compliments on how nice it looks.
Lemon?
I have had this pickup for almost 3 years, bought brand new. Fried tranny at 9000, dealership told me a piece broke off the pump and clogged the cooler. New transfer case and front differential at 26000, no explanation. Now at 35000 power steering has a horrible leak in it. This pickup has seen almost all highway miles and regular maintenance.

Wow!
Shifting (flat) from 1st to 2nd has to be, I don't know, just WOW. This truck handles like no truck I've ever been in and better than most cars. The heck with the gas prices, I love this Truck. Didn't think I would like shifting again but as for now it's fun again. MoPar did it right with the SRT-10.
Hemi-power
This truck has it all, it's great for riding around the country and it's extremely handy when just running errands around town. The best thing is it can tow a boatload of stuff and the boat or whatever you want to hook-up to. Mine has the 5.7L Hemi. If I had to make the choice again I would still get it with gas at $2.37 a gallon. There is no substitute for a well made engine with great reliability. The truck itself has great visibility and looks sharp.
Outstanding Performance
Power and performance that rivals my 1995 Viper, with excellent fit and finish.
