Great Truck.

Almost 200,000 miles so almost everthing has been rebuilt or replaced but the engine and computer. I bought it new and still drive daily for work. It pulls our 24 ft. Boat with ease.

Runs and drives great, clearcoat peeling off.

Great vehicle, runs and drives great with a few repairs, trans rebuilt, and steering linkage replaced, Clearcoat is peeling off, and I have had to replace seats cushions. But I will keep and drive it to the end.

Starts every time!

Okay, gas mileage.....meh. But it's a truck. I bought my 99% rust free truck from a dealership in Chesapeake VA. I live in Philadelphia so I bought it with no test drive. I'll never do that again. Over paid. It was so clean in the pics, I just assumed it was perfect. 1200 in parts later I very happy with my 2000 Ram. Did I over pay... Yes. But I love it. I always wanted one. The movie Twister, and Walker Texas Ranger I'd watch just for the truck. But if your looking for a good reliable truck that won't break the bank, this is it.

Best truck performance

Everything good. Good towing capacity. Good gas mileage compare to its size, the only problem is poor Dashboard quality which 99% of these trucks dash is broken

Favorite truck.

I have always loved dodge rams. Early 2000s body styles are the most reliable and fun to drive. You should buy one.

Has been very reliable

One owner, in good condition. 5.9 liter 4X4 quad cab short box. 150,000 miles. The tires are nearly new, I wasn't intending to sell this truck. I have fixed many of the parts recently as I planned to keep it for many years. I just had the tranny completely serviced and it operates very well. I recently replaced the dash because the original cracked due to faulty material as is common for dodge pickups of this generation. While replacing the dash i replaced the heater core because it had a slight leak. I recently had the a/c completely replaced and it will freeze you out on a hot day. I replaced the door hinges. Replaced front wheel bearings recently and the brakes were also recently replaced. In last couple of years replaced all fluids... differential, transfer case, coolant, etc. A little over a year ago had the fuel injection system cleaned. This truck has been as reliable as they come and never abused. To be honest I will miss it! This truck has many more years left in it. I recently bought a new truck and I am ready to pass it on to the next owner. Come take it for a test drive. I am not in a rush to sell, I am open to offers but keep in mind I am not in a rush to sell.
