Eco diesel has been very good

It has been very good. Only had one recall and service work done. 22-27 mpg. And adequate power. 4x4 works well and is comfortable. Good solid truck.

Great Truck

I traded in my 4Runner on this Ram. The 4Runner was great I just missed having a truck. I love the low price with all of the features that come with it. When compared to the other trucks that you pay more and get less with you can't go wrong. I got the 5.7L Hemi and love it!

RAM, my new Cadillac

Always a Cadillac lover, but mountain terrain requires a little more grit. Needed a vehicle that could traverse the mountain roads but allow clients to still enjoy the Cadillac feel. Works on all levels!

Almost as good as my Hummer 2 was

Wish it had off-road tires like the Hummer 2; they were great in snow. Didn't mind paying $100-$400/tire. Computer screen should be tilted to left for Driver. Radio buttons too complicated. Buttons for Driver heat, and heated wheel, plus switch to 4 wheel drive, down too low. Have no place for purse when middle console for cups flipped down.

Great room inside

This truck has great room front and back it doesn't make you feel like you are bunched together. It has a nice ride on smooth and not so smooth roads.

Rams are great for light use

I like the ram truck its great for light use (as in hauling stuff on occasion). I mostly use it as a daily driver. Its roomy cab and good size bed. Some blind spots is the biggest negative fun to drive for me because I have had one in the past.

Hope to be taking delivery Friday

Low mileage with existing factory warranty. Just what we were looking for (retired and will have for many years). Requirements all met, truck to haul with and room for us and the dogs👍

Wheel bearing and hub assembly went out at 38,000

My 2018 Ram 1500 4x4 is very comfortable and meets all my needs with its seating for 5 and roomy interior. But! I’ve never heard of a wheel bearing and hub assembly go out on a vehicle after only 38,000. Dodge wanted nearly $700 to repair and did not offer any assistance which I thought was pretty poor, being that my truck 2,000 miles out of the bumper to bumper warranty. I’ll be sure to buy from a different manufacturer in the future.
