Power and performance that rivals my 1995 Viper, with excellent fit and finish.

I have never enjoyed driving a vehicle like this since I was 16 and got my first vehicle. Drives like a sports car and I do not feel like I am scooting along on the ground. Anyone looking for a performance truck should take a serious look at this vehicle.

A good solid truck with spectacular styling, the 4.7 ram lacks a little in the power department and gets horrible gas mileage. the 5.7 hemi is a much better choice. the truck rides nice and looks great standing still. And Dodge still beats anyones price around. A good looking truck for a great value.

23 mpg stock

I traded in an aging Jeep Wrangler for this when Dodge was doing the employee discount option for anyone. I am still learning how to park this monster even after having it for several months. Just today, my average mileage (mostly hiway) on this all stock truck was 23 MPG. I was shocked! The onboard computer was indicating 17 MPG. Keep your foot out of the throttle and this truck will get decent mileage. When accelerating, I typically do not exceed 2000 RPM. Believe me, this is hard to do since Hemi sounds soo nice at wide open throttle.

My second late model Ram (I just traded my 2002). As you see, I'm going on my second Ram. I'm not saying I'm a "Dodge" man, as I've owned lots of makes and models. I rebought the Ram because I like a vehicle that has been good to me. Very roomy and comfortable (I'm 6'6") and well layed out interior. I was in an accident doing 75 MPH in my first Ram and this truck saved my skin (putting it lightly). Best priced truck in the market, I have to laugh at people who say that about Toyota- they obviously haven't priced the Ram. I have shopped around a lot and have seen what others are giving for rebates.
