Good Truck purchased at Alpha auto sales on Lafaye

Great people to deal with quick and easy. real wonderful selection of vehicles with many low mileage. Sales team treated me great with a lot of knowledge of finance to help get us in the right vehicle I would recommend anyone should give them a try.

Best deal ever

Needed a new vehicle and this one was a steal! Pretty much perfect condition inside and out, one small tear in the front seat. Everything works perfect!

nice trucks to bad they fall apart while new.

Nice trucks to bad they're falling apart a little bit more each time you drive it down the rood, and then you're told "that part isn't covered under the meny recalls Dodge has out on their trucks,,,, just replace this one with a New 1500 ram. what about the Win Module??? if the key jiggles the lights shut off and the motor cuts out while you are driving. Almost everyone I know owns a Dodge, we have always been Dodge drivers. No I wouldn't recommend a Dodge to anyone until Dodge proves their trucks are trustworthy again,,,, this is the only vehical I have and I live alone out in the country, can anyone help me?

Totally satisfied. Versatility of luxury, and hard

This is the first truck I've ever owned. I had a Cruze for 3 years. And then an SUV for another 3. Granted, those both got better gas milage, but this thing has some get up and go. Its fully loaded inside so it feels like I'm driving a luxury sedan, but has a 6 ft open bed that allows for my heres and there's of getting firewood, going to the dump, or helping move stuff. I love it, I'm sure every truck owner feels this way about their truck. But. Since I was a kid I wanted a RAM because of how cool and mean they look. Now that I've finally got one. I couldn't be happier.

Most reliable car ever.

Worked for me moving, going to grandkids games, fishing, skiing! Has room for the whole family. Reliable, great price, LARAMIE is the best package. Go Dodge!

Nice truck very reliable easy to work on when need

The only fly I have with a 2012 Dodge ram Quad cab is the plastic ignition switches are flawed after four years the plastic is worn around ignition switch creates a negative spark which causes the ignition switch not to turn over and at times it will allow you to turn the ignition switch off without it being in gear and at times you’ll be driving down the road and the truck will shut down which will leave your power steering not workable.

Excellent truck!

I have my Big Horn with the upgraded Tecnology Pkg for 7 years and not had a single issue. This truck has excellent power when you need it and is very comfortable and great looking.
