Better than old 4.7 v8

I just got my RAM 1500 Express Quadcab 4x4 a month ago. This is my 3rd RAM 1500. Previous two were 4.7 litter Magnum V8. My two friends have V6 and I had been always teasing their V6 full size truck. But FCA did great job for newest RAM with V6. I do not haul 6000 lbs full loaded trailer. This truck runs great with 8 speed transmission in town and highway. Great on gas mileage and enough power for normal use. And only Ram has 4x4 and lower grade model combination. I added nerf bars and tonneau cover. People around says I got top line of the model.

2017 Dodge Ram 1500

Love this truck my buddy has a 2016 Ford F-150 there is no comparison between the two vehicles . The Dodge is a much better truck more comfortable , better mileage , more power, nicer interior , cleaner lines . It rides like a dream better power then his ford . Love the 8 speed transmission . Would buy again in a heartbeat . Also like the fact that you can buy a lifetime warranty . I am not a Dodge employee I am a retired Coca -Cola rep. .

Best Truck I've ever owned.

I've got the 2017 Ram 1500 Laramie 4x4. Great styling, and chrome package. The interior is like a luxury car. With the coil spring suspension, it rides so smooth. Lots of great electronics and storage space. The HEMI puts out all the power I need, and the 8 speed transmission is so smooth that you can barely feel it shift. All in all, the best truck I've ever owned.

Ford F150

It could be OK for my needs, good power and engine specs. Comfortable interior, good turning radius and braking. Interface for phone could be a little better.

Dodge Ram Sport 4x4 Sublime Green

This is the best vehicle I have ever owned. It rides like a luxury car due to the Rear Coils vice Leaf Springs, Its interior is so much better than all the competition due to it not being cheap looking, The U Connect 8.4 is so usefule with real radar pictures for weather and traffic alerts. the 10 Speaker system is awesome. the Ram Boxes and under the seat storage makes this vehicle so roomy. The 5.7L Hemi with the 8 cylinders down to 4 saves me tons of gas.

Unbelievable Value

Truck has more than enough power and torque through rpm range. Coil springs allow tru k to ride like a car. Averages 18 mph in city with the 5.7 hemi and 3.21 rear. Couldnt be more please after first 2000 miles.

Drove my last one 257k miles

I didn't have to think much about what kind of pickup I would get this time. The silver Lone Star Quad Cab is classy, quiet, with all the latest gizmos. I am thoroughly in love with it. I got the bench seat since that is what I had before and liked it very well. Expecting it to be the last vehicle I buy.
