Used 2003 Dodge Ram Pickup 2500 Consumer Reviews
Best Truck Ever! Hemi Power
This is by far the best truck I have ever owned. I was never a big Dodge fan before, but I am now. This has been the most reliable truck I have owned and without a doubt it should last me at least another 100,000 miles or so. The gas mileage I think is pretty exceptional considering this is a 5.7 liter engine in a heavy duty truck. I was never one to go for the smaller gas engines especially since I didnt want to sacrifice power over a few extra miles per gallon. I have received more compliments about this truck than any of the others brands. If I were to buy another truck it will be very hard for me not to consider another Ram.
good truck
This is an all around good truck. The 2500 hemi has lots of power but poor gas mileage. The only poor quality is the paint, which scratches very easy.

Diesel Engine Failure
At 615 miles the engine failed. Service dept. said #6 pushrod broke. Stated that Dodge techs knew where to look for the problem. It sounded like this had happened before.
Great Truck, Great Price!
Being a Chevy man my whole life this was a big change for me to buy a new Dodge. But I got an SLT Diesel 4-door 3/4 ton 4X4 for UNDER $30,000! A comparable Chevy was over $35,000. As a plus, I got a better warranty and the ledgendary reliabiliy of the Cummins engine. Granted, I only have 2,000 miles on the truck so far, but am extremely happy with it in every way. Fuel mileage isn't quite what I expected (21 mpg highway, 16 city) but should improve over time.
Great truck, Great price!
I've always been a "Chevy man" but when it was time to buy my first new truck, I couldn't look the other way when presented with the facts: -Twice the (powertrain) warranty -More horsepower and torque -Better mileage -Legendary Cummins motor -About $5,000 cheaper etc, etc. Looks great, handles great (for a truck), tows great. Stops on a dime. Couldn't ask for anything more. I'm am extremely satisfied with this vehicle. 21,000 problem free miles so far.
