Allways broken, not tough enough.

She was a good little truck but if you want s truck to use and grunt threw work look elsewhere. The 5.2 is gutless and the drive train is shabby. She can't take the cold the wet or the northern Canadian weather. I love to drive these trucks they are fun to own buy just don't work well after 200,000km. Be careful if you buy one and have if inspected befor purchase.

Loved this Truck So Much!

I received my 2001 Dodge Ram as a gift in 2006. I drove this truck for 11 years. She carried me all over The South and northward to New England. She was reliable and loved. I did have to start replacing parts over the last year, but every part being replaced was a factory part... and she was WELL over 150K. She was at 201K when I traded her. Loved this truck!

Review of 2001 Dodge Ram 1500

its a very good vehicle for the year. Chrysler did a poor job on dashboard design with the hard plastic but other than that its a great vehicle with awesome power.

Project Truck

I got this truck to teach my son how to work on cars. It is very easy to work on and the parts are readily available and inexpensive. We have had a very good time rebuilding the suspension and the brakes. If you are burning oil,pinging, or have bad gas millage just replace the intake manifold with the Doorman kit, this will solve your problem and your Ram will run like new. If you do the intake you should do the water-pump and a tune up at the same time. If you have it all apart and over 150k miles change the timing chain also. These trucks have week transmissions, just change the fluid, filter, and adjust the bands yearly. Also in stall a Trans cooler and always use atf+4 when filling.

2000 Dodge Ram 1500 V8 5.9 4x4

i love my Dodge Ram. Its a very reliability truck but i have had lots of problems with the truck. I'm the 3rd owner and the last 2 didn't take care of it. the truck has 130,000 miles and its still kicking just fine. i have only owned the truck for 9 months and i have replaced the fuel pump,water pump,ball joints lots of senors and many more parts. i have towed and off road with the truck and she does good. The Dodge has no problem towing and going through the mud or snow if its not to deep. It has been starting up it the winter even when the temperature is -10 out. The truck sits outside the whole year and always starts up for the most part. Like if the fuel pump goes out or a senor its not starting up. Over all i'm very happy with my truck and i plan on doing a lot of work to it.

My first Truck

I bought mine back in 2005 when it had 55k miles on it. I've never had any issues with this car at all, some damage to the dash that i didn't deal with and the problems i've had with it i've caused myself. This car is just simply amazingly reliable, a tough truck that lasts very very long, it has 155k miles now and still running very well. I'm proud of my first Truck, she gets it done!

OFF ROAD edition

I have the original Off Road edition I bought new with all the cool stuff on it, this truck has never let me down. With 90k and I still have the original brakes on it, this truck is awesome.
