Very pleased with this truck. I put 200,000 miles on it and the only major repair was a new injection pump at about 180,000 miles. 2 sets of Michelein tires, one set of new shocks, and one brake job. Great truck if your looking to go a long ways. Fuel economy was great with this truck with the Diesel motor and 5 speed tranny.

What a Dodge!

This vehicle has performed beyond my wildest expectations of any truck on the market. I drive this baby hard all the time and have ever since I got it. I bought it new and have owned it almost 5 years. I have put 122,000 miles on it which is around 23,000 miles a year and it has never been in the shop except for regular maintenance every 4,000 miles and for replacing the brakes. The diesel Cummins engine is the best diesel on the market bar none and it pulls heavy loads like a workhorse. The only complaint I have about the vehicle is the braking system. It does not brake like I think it should especially during wet weather.

This is a great truck. I've had no problems with it and will definiltely buy another one. The 5.9 liter engine has plenty of power and torque. The truck takes weight excellent, and with 3000 pounds of weight it isn't even on the helper springs. I think it is more of a rugged work truck than the Fords and Chevys.

One heck of a medium duty truck

Cummins standard output, 5 spd with NO problems, never been back to the dealer. Milage 15-17 with a lead foot. I've had 4 tons of dirt in the box several times, drove 25 miles and it did well. I can tow a 12K 5th wheel trailer all day at 75 with 12 mpg. I was a Chevy man, but I had a lot of bad luck with 'em. I hope to buy a new '03 3500 Dodge Cummins HO soon. I think the '01s & '02s are more HD than the '03s. My last truck was a '96 2500 V-10 & doubled my milage with the Cummins, but the v-10 was GREAT. Dodge/Cummins is the only medium duty rated truck on the market.
