Bought the ST model with the 4.7 liter V8 Flex Fuel engine after being impressed with its power on the test drive. Drove all the makes and the killer warranty on this truck won me over. This is my first Dodge after owning GM, Ford and Nissan trucks over the years. Very smooth ride on the highway and on gravel roads, very little wind noise. Got 17mpg doing 75-80 on last road trip. Pitched the steel wheels and bought after-market 18s in black to complete the look. I do get the occasional question; Is it a 4x4? The body height seems lower on the new design. Overall, love the truck!

This is my 3rd Dodge truck in 20 years. My last new 1997 Dodge was a jewel, never a problem, dependable as a swiss watch. My 09 Dodge has 21000 miles currently,dead reliably like the 97. I LOVE the truck, the Hemi is powerfull gets great mileage. Interior is top notch Ride is superb Buyers, BEWARE of some dealers that insist on rear end oil changes at 15000 miles. Victorville motors( VICTORVILLE CALIFORNIA) insisted that i change oil ($175.00) when the factory recommends rear end oil be changed ONLY in severe duty situations every 15000 miles. Spark plugs need changing every 30K miles( all 16 of them) at about $250.00. Read the owners manual first and save money

Stunning Drive and Beauty

I'm stunned how nice this truck is! I was going to buy a Toyota. But, the price, 0% financing, warranty, and technical features in the new 2009 made the Ram a clear winner. Now, having driven the truck in town and on one road trip, I'm stunned how nice it is. The highlights: very quiet, drives like a dream, rides great, handles great, very comfortable, and oh and it's a truck! It's hard to believe how great this truck, especially when you consider the things you don't see; lifetime powertrain warranty, stability control, traction control, air bags, and so many other features.

Nice truck, ride is great if you are a first time truck owner and not used to a leaf spring rear end. No mechanical issues yet, towing is lacking badly, very sluggish bracking and motor is def. not made to pull any load off line. cannot complain about gas mielage. Also a few cosmetic issues, little things like weather stripping and cheap cover over chrome accents. For 30,000 plus they could have a little better quality control.

This is a SLT Quad cab With the 5.7 Hemi. I have to say, this truck was long overdue. After test driving all of the 2009 competitors, this monster handles all of them in just about every catagory. Where else can you get 390HP w/407FTlb torque and still get 14 City & 20 Hwy? The rear coil-overs make rear leaf springs a thing of the past. I pull a 3000 lb boat&trailer, and have never used the Tow/haul feature. Build quality this year is drastically improved inside and out. This was the last truck I had in mind when I started shopping, but its in my driveway today.(with no regrets so far)
