Ford Driver Changes to Dodge

What a truck! The Hemi is well worth the extra cost. The comfort of the leather and interior room makes the Quad Cab worth it. I have had Ford Trucks in the past and I decided I was going to try the Dodge. Good choice! I have fallen in love with the looks, performance, and comfort of the truck.

Unbelievable Fuel Economy with Non-Hemi

My Ram is driven on interstates and if I keep my speed reasonable, I can consistently get 20+ mpg. Have had as high as 24 with a tail wind. For this size vehicle, this tuff looking truck is amazingly economical with gas. Getting ready to trade and considering something smaller but why give up full size luxury and ride to pick up 1-2 mpg, if that. Love my RAM and will probably by another, but not a Hemi. Get the 4.7 v8.

2005 Ram SRT-10 Power

The power of the SRT-10 is awesome, you really feel the torque every time you drive!! It is a rush when passing traffic, as you step on the accelerator and within seconds the person you passed is now a figment of your imagination!! Anyone with a heavy right foot and the love of a pick-up truck will definitely not be disappointed with this machine!! I will own one of these for the rest of my driving days!!

'05 Dodge 1500: A great truck so far!

I've had it for only 2 months (2300 miles), but so far it has run great, and it drives very comfortably for a 4x4 truck. I use it in my landscape design business, but it is also my primary vehicle. I will write another review in a few years on this same truck, hopefully with the same positive comments!
