best truck i have owned

Dodge nailed it on styling and performance.. the cummins turbo diesel packs a punch and the truck looks great. the interior is loaded with great comfort features and there is lots of storage inside throughout the cab. Leather seats are comfortable and there's plenty of room. so far with 57K miles I have no complaints.

pulls anything

purchased a used 6.7 cummins with only 30k miles. everything i have thrown at it, it just laughs and keeps on going. gas mileage is what you would expect on a big truck. a few mods later and I'm averaging 18 mpg mostly city driving with a very light foot. only downside is the bump steer and death wobble that is easily fixed with a steering box stabilizer. I'll have this truck until either one of us dies!

Toughest Pick up I've ever had

Great truck, will pull anything you want. Not as impressed with the 5.7 Hemi as I once was but it continues to do the job.

Great work truck

Had a ram as my work truck for over 3 years and over 125000 miles, great truck overall. small ball-joint issues from the factory but nothing that strands you on the road. always great power for the 6.7 cummins. Interior held up good overall, no cracks in the dash.

Great Cummins motor, easy power mods and reliable.

Best pickup I have owned. The RamBox option is great. Easy to mod for more power and reliability. Megacab has room for family and friends. MPG is 17/19 city and 20/23 hwy. with very simple upgrades. Daily driver, tow rig, and family wagon that will now do 11.5 quarter mile blasts with ease.

HEMI Power to Spare at 264,000

This is my 5 Dodge/Ram truck since 1995 body style change. Ran the 1st 3 trucks to 100k and selling off my 2006 MegaCab 5.7 Hemi 4X4 w/264k after finding a 2012 2500 MegaCab 5.7 Hemi Laramie for a sweet price. The '06 has been a peach of a truck. The SLT package had the right set up for a working truck and comfort to make 200 mile drives go by fast. No major issues as far as repairs, just stay on top of oil changes ect. Even had a sheriff's deputy ask me why I was pulling a semi with a trailer with my truck on a 4 lane one day! Because he needed to get out of the intersection with his blown driveshaft. These trucks have Power to Spare.
