2016 RAM 1500 consumer reviews

Love the looks and ride of my truck, but because of the problems I have had with transmission, will not purchase another Ram. At 3400 miles transmission began slipping between 1st and 2nd gear, took to dealer, who tried to flash and reprogram computer before replacing the transmission. Then 5 months and about 1600 miles later same problem occurs, again transmission is replaced. It has been in the shop for 31 days for this problem in 10 months, I have zero confidence that my truck will make it on a long road trip and not leave me stranded.

This is my first truck and I couldn't be more thrilled it's fully loaded and has options I didn't even know existed. The air ride suspension gives this truck the smoothest ride I've ever had the pleasure to experience!

I wish I could find something wrong with this truck. It's the best looking truck on the market, along with maybe the Tundra. I have the sports package, which is really sharp. The cargo system actually allows you to seat other people, instead of having your rear seats full of tools. I accidentally peeled out after getting a car wash just yesterday. The engine is a beast. Gas mileage is amazing on the highway and better than you would think in the city (around 18 in the city).

The Rebel package is phenomenal, and the normal trimmings offered by Dodge make this the perfect balance of value, capability, and comfort.

This is a comfortable vehicle with lots of room. It is set up perfectly for our family and our very busy lifestyle.

The Ram 1500 Eco Diesel is not only fuel efficient but it has the some of the more luxury options for the best value. My Ram was purchased new and keeps getting better gas mileage as time goes on. The truck is just well built, solid and comfortable. Most trucks in its class do not offer the quality interior and superior options standard to the laramie.

The first thing that impressed me was the technology, loads of information and functionality. The rise is smooth, the ice binds and seat fold-downs in the back are very handy for my dog! Mileage is exceeding expectations!

I read a ton of reviews and viewed the YouTubes on the Eco Diesel mileage. I took them with a grain of salt and scepticism. I liked the interior and styling and bit the bullet and spent the extra 4K for the Diesel. I drove my 2016 1500 Tradesman (2 wd) long bed (8 ft) from Simi Valley, ca to Wildomar, ca. and back. About 360 freeway miles with about 25% of the ride in stop and go rush hour traffic. Mileage was 32.2 mpg. You don't believe me and I get it. This engine and trans setup is incredible. By the way I was doing between 65 and 70 most of the way. This truck is awesome. Does everything like a truck except ride like one. Rides like a full size American sedan. With all the discounts, rebates, etc I paid $26k before tax and license. I started out looking for the small chevy/gmc diesels but got a full size truck and saved $10k! Never owned a RAM truck before. Driven mostly fords, chevys and Toyotas. Just happened to find out about the Eco Diesel when it was mentioned (in a review of the chevy Diesel Colorado) as something to consider if you were looking at the chevy Colorado or the GMC version and wanted to save some money and get a real full size truck instead of a mini truck. Glad I did. I love this truck.

I love my 2016 Ram 1500 Rebel. It has all the best features. The four corner air suspension is one of the best features on the truck.

I have had 7 Ram trucks from 2003 to present, loved them all, this one is by far one of the best that I have had or driven. Great power , styling and comfort.
