Most reliable truck I've owned

This trucks performs great!!! The way it looks is just a plus. The Dodge Ram 1500 4.7L 4x4 tow kit bed liner lift kit, gets better gas mileage than most trucks out there. Still 4x4 with a great interior and exterior, comfortable yet gets the job done. If I still LIVED on a Farm I wouldn't sell but it belongs on a backroad farm life

Big Truck Small Price

Compared to my old 2000 Ford F150, this Dodge Ram XST is a giant. The vehicle offers a smooth ride, and it is comfortable and roomy. For the price, you get a lot for your money. This vehicle is a great buy.

Great Truck

Very dependable and versatile vehicle. Owned it for over 7 years with only minor vehicle maintenance. Took it across country on multiple family/hunting trips with no issues.

WORK HORSE

This truck met my needs for hauling and weekend odd jobs. It will be a great truck for a small business as well. I recommend it for hauling, and landscapers,

Easiest truck to drive and maneuver

This is by far the best vehicle that I have ever owned I couldn't have asked for a nicer sales person, they meet and exceed what I was expecting. They have a very knowledgeable sales staff who will do anything for you. I could not get to 2018 but that is the year of this truck

7000 lb towing capacity

At 70 mph 2000 rpm It gets 17 mpg. Not bad for this powerful pickup. I'm willing to sell it for its trade in value to the public. I need to pay the tax man. Lol.
