o well

i recently traded my 04 dodge 3500 because of transmission problems had great service from it got 16-18mpg and 9-10mpg towing and would pull great hold 80-85 towing load and had great torque. got new 2011 dodge 3500 appearance is great and rides a lot better than the 04 BUT fuel millage is horrible 5-8 towing 13-14 empty!!! also has trouble holding 80mph while towing. i am told it is due to emission laws. what a shame a truck 7 years newer and $20,000 MORE want pull and want get millage 04 got.

Excellent Truck

For the Dodge haters just remember we STILL have the Cummins. This is my Second truck and I thing its great! I've not had a single problem out of her. The ride is a bit rough empty but put a load in back or tow a trailer and it drives like a Cadillac. Mine has EVERYTHING and is a joy to drive on a long haul.

Not much Power for a diesel

Well i am NOT impressed with this truck, steering wobble, really bad fuel economy and slow compared to my friend Duramax and fords. Had lots of issues with the engine, water pump and CEL lights every week, only 9500 kms.Will be trading soon for a Duramax.

most uncomfortable truck i have ever owned

I have owned all different makes of diesel medium duty trucks and this dodge gets the most terrible fuel mileage of everything i have ever owned. The dodge is also very uncomfortable to drive and i had transmission issues. I use my truck to tow backhoes, bobcats and small dozers, i will never own a Dodge again. I had trouble with injectors on my 2006 duramax so i now own a ford.

Another underpowered truck

Got rid of my 2011 Cummins and got the 2011.5 H.O and still underpowered and sluggish, very disapointed.

Best Truck Ever!!!

My Ram 3500 has been the best truck I've ever owned!! Reliability is great and I love the yellow for the exterior color!!! The four door is perfect for the two labs that I own. It gives them plenty of room in the back to play with their toys and each other. People have said that the transmission for Dodge is bad, but mine is perfectly awesome. Overall, a very,very great truck!!!
