Ram truck fan

I have own Dodge trucks since 1997. This 2017 Ram 1500 is perfect for a big guy with a family who needs a reliable pickup truck for heavy work, yet a spacious and comfortable to take the family on a long trip. I have two growing boys. This truck is perfect for them to travel with my wife and I in comfort. Yet the truck is great for all types of work and hauling I need for my "Handyman Dad" work.

Best bang for your buck

Was in the market for a half ton pick up with good mpg's. Bought me a lonestar ecodiesel and it has surpassed what i was looking for on mileage and all the options included in the lonestar edition were a bonus.

One of the coolest and most comfortable riding

Its an awesome mix between sport and utility. It's not the most luxurious trucks, but the Rebel is one of the most capable off road and on road trucks ove driven. It's fun to drive and looks good doing it.

I am very pleased with my 2017 RAM 4X4 Big Horn

Compared to the Ford 150 the RAM 1500 exceeds in ride comfort, gas mileage, and quality of materials, and much better fit and finish. I wanted a natural aspirated engine with good power. 395 Horse power and 410 pounds of torque and runs on 87 octane fuel, towing is 10,140 pounds Ford has twin turbos on a small 3.5 L V-6. That requires 91 octane fuel. RAM beat Ford hands down. This is my fourth RAM 1500 and I have been totally pleased with them. I have had two 3.6 V-6 engines and two 5.7 engines and I like the 5.7 V-8 much better. Gas mileage is 18-20 mpg with the 3.92 gear ratio. I have 22.846 miles on it and it is 11 months old, I bought it on October 11, 2017 for $36,000. window sticker was $49,815.

Love room in the crew cab and the Hemi

It has one USB port below the radio and one in the armrest. It has 2 12 volt cirgarette lighter style charging ports ,again one under radio and the other in the arm rest. The Hemi is a beastly motor but if you keep your foot out of it , it gets good gas mileage with the 8 speed auto

Great riding truck.

The 2016 Ram 1500 is a great riding truck with a great look. Very comfortable and beautiful in side. You get more trim levels for the money with Ram. It won?t tow or as much as aFord F150 but you get higher trim levels for the money.

Best truck on the Market.

Everything I wanted in a truck and then some. They are priced to sell and well worth the money. Second Ram I've owned and wont be the last.

Side to side motion of rear end

Side to side motion of rear end when driving on the freeway . If I hit a bump on one side of the vehicle, the vehicle shakes side to side and is a little unnerving. This is my fourth ram 1500 and none of the first three have exhibited this type of motion.
