Awesome truck

Love the truck!! The Quad cab is a little tight for a car seat in the back, boy other than that it is a great truck!

New Purchase

Very impressed with the styling and layout of the interior. Comfortable, and inviting. Air ride is unique and very smooth for a 4x4 1/2 ton. Purchased as a tow vehicle for a small camper. Wanted something with a little more power than a V6, and the diesel fit the bill. 25mpg highway unloaded, and 19mpg with 3800lbs towing. Impressive. Will need to evaluate long term, but first impressions of truck - wife loved it. She didn't want a truck ...at all. But this one convinced her to change her mind. Overall great ride.

This is a truck?

Great style, great performance, interior like a nice car, proud to own it! Can not beat the price versus other truck prices, and you will get less for your money with other truck brands. Holds its value as well as any other truck.

Great dealership to deal with

Was looking for a GM product pickup , was going to check out a Sierra found out someone else grabbed it. Had the Ram Outdoorsman saved right below it in my favorites and was right down the road from the dealership the Sierra was at, so I gave it a shot. Fell in love with it. Was out of the dealership in 3 1/2 hours all done! Hate car buying as my wife leases every 3 years, Cars.com makes it TOO easy!! Thank you cars.com!
