Move Over Ford

RAM is making some great trucks. This is my second RAM 1500. Oklahoma has been a Ford pickup state for decades. RAM outsold Ford for the first time last year...there is a good reason for that. They are simply making great trucks! The power and comfort of the 1500 is fantastic.

Never had any issues with any Ram i have owned.

As far as trucks go. You definitely get more for your money then the over priced GM and Ford products! Hemi is a beast and with 8 speed transmission great mileage! Great truck!

Extremely Fun to Drive

I have owned pickup trucks for years, First Chevy, then Fords, and now I am on my third Ram, I generally trade every 3 years or so. By far Ram has outdone itself. this is the Best truck on the Market, legendary 5.7 V-8 Hemi power, averaging 22mpg, unbelievable ride, extremely well designed roomy interior with plush leather seats, 8.4 touch screen ( easy to use ),and soft to touch surfaces, ( not plastic like Ford ) and the best trade in value, of all the other trucks that i have owed. I would definitely check out this vehicle if you are in market for a pickup.

Luxury without the price tag!

I have owned 2 Ram 1500s and I have to say they are making these trucks great again. I?ve owned a Big Horn and a Laramie and both have been great! The Laramie is luxurious without the $100k price tag. The HEMI is powerful and let?s you know it. The interior gives an visual appeal to impress anyone. I would recommend this truck to anyone looking for a big presence in the road and an enjoyable ride everytime.

Love my RAM !

Hemi has awesome power, torque and sound yet still gets good fuel mileage with cylinder deactivation. Great looking truck inside and out. Comfortable, spacious interior and a smooth riding suspension. No problems.

Truck lodks fantastic

When I first bought the truck I was amazed and proud to own it. Consequently, now having water pump problems as I did with the previous Dodge Ram 1500 trucks owned. Although the warranty covers the part and labor this time, is this going to repeat itself. I really believe the water pump design for this powerful engine does not meet the requirements of the engine

Great truck!

Always been a Chevy girl but I love the Ram. Very comfortable, for a v6, it still has a lot of power for pulling my boat.
