I love the way the interior is set up, and it is comfortable too. It steers and drives great. The only thing I don't like about it is the post beside the frount window is a big blind spot.
Five Stars for everything except the ride
i am a woman, about 5'2" tall, and this is my only vehicle. Got it at a really good price; it sat on a lot for more than two year during the recession, so we paid only $33 for a car with a sticker of more than $44. It has only one flaw, the ride. Otherwise, I love it. It is a true pleasure to drive and handle. It's high enough to see everything on the road, big and strong enough to feel safe in crashes. As a pint-sizes female i can adjust the seat for perfect comfort and vision and it feels as though made for me - luxurious and comfortable too. With heated seats, power windows, power mirrors, what's not to like inside. It's driven most often in shorter mileage suburban areas. It's used more like an SUV, usually carrying the dog, a male German Shepherd in the crew area which we made a foam bed for, and in the truck bed, it carries not much more than a large load of groceries, etc. from Costco, though it has brought home a large load of bricks on occasion. I make a point to get freeway driving in on a regular basis to stretch it out. It's made a couple of long trips, from California to Oregon and back, from California to Montana and back and from California to Brainerd and Minneapolis and Pelican Rapids, MN and back. Max mileage on the road is usually 20-22 mpg, occasionally more; around town varies between 16-18. Total road Mileage is just past 45,000. So far nothing has gone wrong. The only money spent on it has been oil changes and filters. But I must mention the ride. It definitely rides like a big truck. Translation: the ride is pretty awful and beats the heck out of my aging back - big time. I am looking at retrofitting a Carli system to improve the ride; otherwise I might have to give it up but only because of the ride!

A great truck and daily driver
This is my third Dodge Ram, but I am not Dodge loyal. We spend too much money on vehicles to blindly buy one brand over another. I test drove the new Chevy and looked at the Fords. Ford diesel scares me due to the notorious problems, and the Chevy's new interior was undesirable, at least to me. Mine is the 5.9l Diesel, but that was not selectable above. So far I've been on several trips, and the fuel mileage has gone up with every fill up. Currently I am getting 19.5 mpg hwy and 13 mpg city. My commute is only 4 miles with 6 stop lights so my city mileage is absolute worst case scenario. The Cummins is a great add on; resale and reliability of the diesel makes the extra cost worth it.
2007 Dodge Diesel
Overall I love this truck. The interior is nice but very simple, meaning not very many options. Exterior has a huge look which I love because people get out of your way when they see you. I think I would prefer this truck over the competetion due to the reliable Cummins diesel with realy good power. This truck drives like a gas burner and runs like a diesel. I love it
Last of the 5.9's
After extensive analysis and research I opted to buy one of the last new 5.9 Cummins diesels. What a truck! It is like piloting a freight train. The power is truly awesome. We took the truck on a 1,400 mile trip and got 19 mpg going 75+ with the A/C on. It is very high off the ground. Side steps may be mandatory for some folks. The range on a tank of fuel is amazaing as well - over 600 miles. Got the "Big Horn" package and like all the "Heavy Duty" features. Of course the Sirius Radio is great and the seats are comfortable. The motor is truly and engineering masterpiece. I am glad I purchased one of the last relatively un- smogged Diesels. I fear the enviro reg's may ruin these.
