Driven 4WD until I decided to go with 2WD on my 2017 Laramie. Great ride. Rather drive my Ram than my wife’s luxury SUV.

Great truck! Good MPG

I’ve owned my 17 ram for 2 years now and it has been a great vehicle! I bought it used at 40,000 miles it currently has 61,400 on it. Acouple things that bother me with it… drive shaft needed replaced at 45,000 miles (under warranty) and the engine never idles smooth (5.7 Hemi) it idles up and down when parked. Dealership said this is normal for the Hemi. It may be normal but bothers me. I don’t care for the ECO/MDS mode on it and it sucks you can’t turn it off. I would definitely recommend it to anyone! Best mpg in a truck I have ever had!

No needed repairs or maintenance issues in the year of ownership. The 345 cid V8 engine was an excellent choice. I was concerned it would be too thirsty. Not only did it easily exceed the mileage of my previous Ram 1500 with the 287 cid overhead cam V8, but it consistently achieved 23 mpg on a recent cross country trip on the I-40. I didn’t expect this, especially in an auto trans 4WD pickup, but the MTS really works when I leave it on! This small cam-in-block Hemi engine is elegantly simple and compact, mechanically very quiet, powerful and amazingly efficient too. Am planning to upgrade the brake calipers to stiffer and more powerful units for better brake feel. This 1500 is a keeper, with car like ride and quietness for long trips, and 4WD to keep the tow trucks away on dirt roads.
