unreliable, dangerous handling

In 3 years I have had to put 3,300.00 into it. Front axle wore out, needed all new rotors and brakes within 2 years, and I had completed all dealer recommended maintenance, which ran me close to a grand alone. Standard mirrors are useless, cupholders are useless, seat belt covers routinely get hooked on your clothes and you go fishing under cars in a parking lot to find them. Emergency handling is non-existent. Sticker stated anti-lock brakes, little did I know that only meant the 2 rear wheels, which I discovered when I braked in the rain the truck went sliding sideways. A power plug went within 2 years, heat/ac fan went in 2 1/2 years, and it has stalled twice now due to electronics.

I bought my ram hemi used two years ago had 11000 miles. My truck is the nice black slt quad cab. Love the hemi but now have the dreaded he hi tick. Now have 27900 on it. Change oil and have recommend service at local dealer. Have had to replace breakers and tires and had blend door replaced. Was very expensive! Don't drive it in the winter as I wish to keep it and give it to my oldest son in two years. Gas mileage is not that bad if you keep a light foot. Wish I had gotten the sat radio the factory one sucks...

With just over 3000 miles in one month, this truck has been fun to drive. Everything has been great about the truck so far. The only issue that I feel Dodge skimped on was the 20" Chrome clad Rims. DO NOT BUY them. They are PLASTIC hubcaps glued to the rim's. In 4-5 years these rims will fade and the plastic will crack when someone goes to change the tires or valve stem. I know, because I already had to replace a tire after having a blowout. If you like these rim's, I'm looking to trade them with someone who doesn't like the non-chrome clad rims!

I looked at so many trucks finally found my truck st quad cab 4.7 with 5 speed auto .I like the redesign for '06 rides more comfortable than '05 model.I also like the room on the quad cab and being able to take the wife and kids on trips.I traded in an '06 Honda Civic and the build quality is so much better on the Dodge Ram.

This Truck is absolutely perfect in every way. No problems at all and has become quite peppy now that it's broken in. I'm averaging 17 mpg's around town and I got 21.6 on a short 500 mile trip. I only use Chevron fuel and Mobil 1 Synthetic Oil. I am extremely pleased with this new Dodge Ram. I can honestly say that this is the best Ram I've owned, ever! My only negative is that the Quad cab Ram is smaller then the Tundra double cab. Need the Mega Cab to get more cab space then Tundra. The Quad cab Ram is bigger in overall size but smaller in cab space.
