It goes on and on and on and on
This truck is real truck, a work truck and an everyday comfortable truck. It goes to church as well as it goes in snow. After 427k miles, the only real problem I have had is an odor of diesel fuel in the truck if I sit idling with the outside air on. It has been like this since new, and I have talked to many other owners who did not experience this problem. I have talked to many owners who had multiple transmission problems, but I have always maintained mine and after all these miles it still works perfectly. I like this truck so much that I am trying to buy another just like it, but with 400k less miles.

Best Pick-Up I have ever owned
The V-10 (488 CID) will out pull my 2000 Cummins. Its probably the best engine made. Only drawback is poor fuel economy. I have never had any problems with this vehicle in the 5 years I have owned it. The 5 speed manual is tops. Have only used the 4 wheel drive once, and it worked perfectly. Leather heated seats are a plus. I perform maintenance according to the owners manual.
2500 Diesel with Sport Package
Overall,a pretty good vehicle, however I'm not very pleased with warranty repair response from Dodge Dealerships. Experienced two rear axle seal problems on same axle within 51,000 miles, which ruined the rear brakes, and Dodge would not repair. One recall for fuel boost pump(rebuild) which later failed and no consideration given.
2001 Dodge Ram Quad Cab V10 Stick
I cannot beleive the smoothness and unlimited power this engine produces. It cannot be beat for pulling a fifth wheel (5500 LBS>). Empty on the highway at 72 MPH I can get 15.2 MPG. Pulling the trailer about 8.5.
My second Dodge and not my last one
My truck has been a great service to me. Fuel injector pump went out at 30000 miles and again at 200000 miles. Clutch went out at 130000 miles and again at 300000 miles. At 430000 miles we just had the front end all redone. Our only problem was with the brakes and tires wearing quickly. The front end takes a big hit from that heavy engine.
