Used 2003 Dodge Ram Pickup 2500 Consumer Reviews
Best Vehcial Yet
7600 miles and nothing wrong. Get the 4.10 rear end if you tow anything above 6K lbs.
First Diesel
I fell in love with this truck the first time I drove it. The HO Diesel has better seat of pants feel in acceleration than the '01 5.9L gas truck I had. I tow an 18 foot car hauler with a tractor on it (approx. 7,000 lbs. total) about 30% of the time. With this truck I hardly know the trailer is behind me. I am very pleased with the mileage. I normally average 19- 20 unloaded on the highway and I get about 15 around town pulling the trailer/tractor. The fit and finish is great. The truck rides better than the '01 1500 I had. I love the extra room with the 4 doors. The only thing I would change about this truck is to have larger rear doors with more room.

Drive my RAM
My vehicle is powered by a Cummins HO turbo diesel. I recently took it for a ride into the mountains west of Denver and was amazed at the ease with which it climbed. The interior is comfortable and suprizingly quiet for a diesel, the handling quick and accurate, and the ride is smooth while still maintaining a truck-like feel. After four months I still jump at the chance to drive it.
Nice Truck
Just picked it up a couple days ago and WOW, I'm impressed. I traded a '99 1500 quad cab 4 x 4 for this. I'm not the least bit sorry. The power of the engine is VERY nice. Blows the 5.2L away. So far no problems to speak of. took 13 weeks to get though so if your looking for a nice truck with a 4.10 rear end. plan on waiting.
2500 Ram 4 Dr. SLT LB DSL HO
We purchased this truck to pull campers and car trailers with. Unbelievable power from the Cummins HO Diesel. This truck can pull 15,000# trailers and hardly notice they are back there. Mileage is outstanding with 21 MPG unloaded and 13/14 pulling trailers. This is impressive after getting 5-7 with Ford 460 gas engines. Engine noise is a little louder than I care for inside the cabin. Three kids love the backseat room. Ride is suprisingly smooth compared to 3/4 ton Chevy's I have owned in the past.
