Used 2010 Dodge Ram Pickup 1500 Consumer Reviews
Great truck until...
Ran great until about 50000 miles... Then it lost responsiveness when accellerating. Dodge dealer said "No codes, so it must be fine..." I'll be trading it in -- with a different dealer!

Great Truck
Our truck has the 5.7 Hemi. The MDS system took some getting used to, especially in town. The power is impressive and the available storage is nice. The ride is very comfortable.

Good But Not the Greatest Ram I've Owned
This is my 2nd Ram. I had a 2008 4x4 Regular Cab Sport that was a great truck. I saw this 2010 Quad Cab in Blue (online) and gave it a look-see. The power was even better than the 2008. I did well on the trade (the Red 2008 was in perfect condition) so I took it home. I started noticing the body creak/rattle almost immediately. Everything else is great-features, colors, interior fit and finish-just that creak. I go next week for a 3000 mile service (yes, the manual says 6000) so we'll see if they can correct my problem. More to come (good news-I hope)
Somewhat happy but problem
Upgraded from 2009 to 2010 SLT Bighorn pkg with 5.7 hemi. 2300 miles and there is a distinct accelerator related, very irritating whistle or whine at around 60 mph. Took it back to dealer, Folsom Lake Dodge, and typical response said nothing could be done because this is normal with the hemi. Did not do it with the 2009 hemi. Do not know whether to believe them or not. This is my 4th dodge pick up, and the first not totally happy with. Seems like this should be a correctable problem if they would only acknowledge. Help.
Amazing Truck Love It!!!
I went to Dodge looking to trade my 04 Chevy S-10 and left with an amazing vehicle that I am amazed with every time I drive it. I love the color (Mango Tango Orange) and the big horn package (with all the chrome and the 20" wheels). I get great mileage driving in the city and get lots of comments about the look and the color. Dodge did a great job making this truck. You can tell a big difference from a 09 to an 10. Love the dual exhaust and the eco feature and the gear selection (gets even better mileage putting it in 4th gear).
An Honest Review
I bought my Ram 1500 April 25, 2015 in California (I now moved back to Oklahoma). I currently have 172,000 miles on my Ram 1500 and I bought it when it had 97k miles on it. I can honestly say I really do love this truck. I own a junk removal business and I use a 12 ft long trailer and you can imagine that I haul a lot of stuff with my truck. When I was answering the reviews about this truck I couldn't think of much to give it bad reviews on. I think the only thing that bothers me about this truck is the headlights, because they hardly light up the road at night. The other negative about this truck is the navigation kind of stinks. Now for the repairs, I have had to do 3 repairs to this truck. I had 1 fuse replaced, A couple of solenoids in the transmission needed to be replaced at 150k miles, and the camshaft wore out around 150k. Other than that it has been an amazing truck!

Awesome Truck!! 2010 Dodge Ram Laramie
I've had my 2010 Dodge Ram Laramie for about six months now and am glad to say that I'm as excited today about driving it everyday as I was the first day I bought it. It is loaded with every option to include satelite tv, dvd system, alpine stereo system, leather seats, heated seats and steering wheel, a/c seats...the works. It has an aggressive exterior look and the interior luxury of much higher priced luxury vehicle. No complaints!
Not a great truck
Previously owned 07 Dodge Mega Cab - best truck ever! 2010 Ram Crew Cab is a far cry from the 07. Serious amounts of rust on all exterior surfaces, especially front bumper after only a few hundred miles (currently have 2100). Transmission shifts HARD when hitting the throttle to pass. Drives and handles more like a smaller SUV - this is not a truck for true truck lovers and is definitely an inferior truck to previous Dodge model years. Make sure you take time to look at all trucks before buying a new Dodge 1500.
2010 Dodge Laramie 1500 crew cab 4x4
When I first test drove this truck I was really impressed with the ease of driving it. It is a big truck but it seems so easy to get around with. The power of the hemi is awesome and the ride quality is really good. The interior is very stylish and it has lots of storage areas. Dodge really made a lot of improvements when they redesigned this truck and they have made a quality truck. If anyone is interested in a new pickup I would recommend test driving this truck and prepare to be impressed.
Hemi vs Porsche
Two years ago I sold my '04 Porsche Cayenne S with 340hp. As time went by I needed my fix. When Dodge advertised it's purchase incentive program, I test drove a fully loaded 390 hp Laramie. What a treat. I was sold. Great vehicle and saved $50K in comparison to a new Cayenne. Can't wait for the snow to arrive.
