I've had my Ram for a year now and I love it. I had to pick up my in-laws travel trailer and I had to keep looking to be sure it was still there! Glad I traded in the wife's mini-van. The only problem I have had is a bad EGR valve. Dealer couldn't find the problem when the check engine light came on. They told me she was running lean . Checked it out on the internet and $70 and 20 minutes later I fixed it myself Haven't had a problem since. MPG ok if you don't hammer on it all the time.

This is my third Dodge and I love my new truck. I drove a Chevy for the last 4 years at work. Now I drive a Dodge Ram 1500. It looks and feels like a real truck, if you know what I mean. Great turn radius and handling. Smooth ride and flashy chrome grille. The best thing is the reliabilty.

This truck has been a blast for me to drive around town and on the highways. The coolest moments about driving this truck has been when I'm at a dead stop and I take off screeching the tires and everyone turns their heads. The Hemi realy does command respect. But driving my truck would be whole lot more enjoyable if it was not for those high gas prices, they cost me about 60 dallors to fill up now. Though even if I got one of those smaller engines I still would be hurt (but not as much) so I will just stick with what I got and hope gas does not go up any more.

Great truck. Definitely love the Hemi. Don't even know there's a trailer back there, pulls HARD!. Very Fast. Whole truck is real tight, nothing falling apart. Only problem in 3 years was blower motor which was fixed under warranty. Besides that never been to the repair shop.

I bought it with a four inch lift and 33" BFG M/Ts. The 5.7L Hemi gives it a nice punch although the factory muffler has really quieted it down. The truck feels very solid and stable even with the 4" lift. For a light duty 1/2 ton, I've been very happy with it.
