You DON'T mess with the RAM!

Got the "Bone White" 2-tone Laramie almost 3 weeks ago! So far I love this truck! This is my first truck so I did a lot of research into this one and others (Toyota and Chevy). For some reason I did not look at the Ford F150 or Titan. However, I found the RAM to have the best ride, exterior, interior and features. I know the Tundra has a great drive train. However with the HEMI and all of the new features in the RAM, plus the fact that I basically paid over $10K less than MSRP with all the incentives, 0% for 36months, I couldn't pass this up!

I've had my 2009 Dodge Ram for 4 days now. I test drove the other full size American pick-ups (F150 & Silverado). By far, the Dodge offered the most bang for your buck. Both Chevy and Ford were also not willing to author the same juicy deal that Dodge ultimately gave me. The interior is really nice, even if you can't afford the Laramie. The Hemi power is ridiculous and the ride is smooth. Standard safety features are impressive. Uconnect and Sirius are great. Plenty of room in the Quad Cab for my 6 year old. MPG on freeway is impressive. Feels like I'm driving a semi with the higher road stance. My wife even likes to drive it. All in all, buy American and go with the Dodge Ram.

This is actually the SLT Quad cab with the Hemi. This is my first truck ever. Still in shock that I actually traded my nice VW for this be we needed more hauling capability. I've had it 8 hours and 70 miles, but I'm really impressed by the feel of how it drives. I thought I'd be creeped out by driving something this big, but I can now see why these things are so popular. Still babying it since I'm not used to it, and it's so new, but so far so good!

WHY DID I BUY ANOTHER DODGE PRODUCT!?

i should have learned after owning my 1997 dodge ram 1500 4x4 and all the known problems with it that daimler chrysler knew about but never did anything about. plenum gaskets every 2 years, trac bars every year, tranny problems every 20k miles, and tons of cash spent for service after the warranty expired and i took care of this like a baby, but always had mega problems with it, and here i go and buy another one! someone want to give me a swift kick!? now anyone buying a new one prior to the bankruptcy will be stuck with any problems encountered. my cab is starting to leak in this truck and the dealership is trying to say i keep my window open every storm since they cannot find any leaks!

I purchased an SLT crew cab in May 09. So far I've gone 3500 miles with no complaints other than after I got it home I discovered it had only 1 tow hook in the front (should have 2). After several calls and a letter to the customer care center I was able to get another hook. Still no rattles, no leaks, everything is fine mechanically. Gas mileage is 15/20 which is good for a 390hp truck! Plenty of room in the crew cab for hauling passengers. I'm still happy with the looks, performace and overall package. One nice feature is how the rear view mirror lights turn on when you exit the vehicle, nice for those dark driveways, parking lots, etc. I'd do it again.
