I'm still getting used to it. I was hoping for slightly better gas mileage, but can't complain too much about it. I got the 3.21 gears as I won't be towing much and wanted the better gas mileage that it offers. It has decent acceleration, but if you want better acceleration go with the 3.9 gears. It suits my needs. As with any vehicle, the dealership navigation system is not as good as google maps, which is frustrating. The voice recognition system sucks. There should be an option for a passenger to input an address while driving. As far as driving goes, it handles well. The seats are comfortable. I really wish that the truck had a telescopic steering wheel. I picked this truck over Ford or Chevy because of the price. I pulled a 5700lb trailer 3200miles and had no issues. It pulled much better than I had expected with an avg of 9-10 mpg @65mph. It pulled fine at 75mph, but gas mileage fell to 6-8mpg. It pulled the trailer through the hills of CO without problem. I would recommend this truck to someone else.

Purchase price is great with USAA incentives or without. I bought mine at half sticker not fully optioned but all the electric necessities. Less glitz more go with the eight speed. Hemi has great reliability. 80,000 trouble free miles on my 2012 and got 78% of purchase price of 2012. Both of my Rammies (5.7)had slow throttle response fixed by Pedal Commander($300). Ram only opens the throttle 80% at full throttle at the pedal. Pedal Commander allows fully open quicker and completely. 0-60 down from 7.5 to 5.9 ( per accelerometer, like many road test magazines use) 8 speeds help as well (2012 was only 6). Quarter mile down by 1 second and 45 to 80 in 3.1 seconds for the 2016. Ride is great, many highway miles quiet and smooth with 21 mpg. Comfortable seats and room with a view. Great truck and no problems. My brothers Jimmie has good power but lots of little problems without the ride. Now 2/2018. Still greater mileage at 20,000+miles. 23.5 to Fort worth and back! Just added HHO (hydrogen from water system) 1mpg increase for now very smooth in 4cyldr mode(econ) used to rumble a lot.

This truck only has one positive element, the 5.7 Hemi. The rear suspension is the weakest I’ve ever seen due to having only coil springs. It can haul but only what the weak suspension allows. The wire issues are a deal breaker. This vehicle should be on recall for all the sub par electrical work done in factory. I’ll never buy Dodge Ram again. Melting wires, melting fuses in fuse box yet not popping fuses, sub par wire used all around and electrical issues everywhere!

When i purchased the Ram1500 in 2916 Brand New and I did add a sidestep, Tunno Cover and Brush Guard, Front & Rear.; 7 year ago, it now has 30477 Miles and looks like Brand New. I has met all my requirements to the Max. I am very happy with it in my Retirment. I have people wanting to know if I want to sell it and get a New One, my only reply is a Dirty Look and No Way. I am happy and It will be a Cold Day in Hell before I depart with it.
