2018 RAM 2500 review: Our expert's take

What it is: The Ram 2500 and 3500 heavy-duty pickup trucks are available in three cab styles: regular cab, crew cab and Mega Cab. Buyers can choose single or dual rear wheels and one of two cargo box lengths. These trucks can seat up to six people in certain configurations. V-8 engines that run on gas and compressed natural gas are available, along with a six-cylinder Cummins diesel that generates up to 900 pounds-feet of torque. Competitors include the Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD and 3500HD, GMC Sierra 2500HD and 3500HD, and Ford F-Series Super Duty.

A backup camera is now standard, and high-end Limited Tungsten and farm-oriented Harvest editions are newly available.

The available 8.4-inch multimedia system now has a higher-resolution touchscreen with pinch-to-zoom functionality, incorporates HD Radio and available 4G LTE Wi-Fi, and supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone connectivity. Available emergency communication services are provided by SiriusXM Guardian, and there's also now a switch in the cargo bed for the available LED bed lights.

Most unreliable truck I have owned.

October 13, 2022

By Disappointed RAM Owner. from Boise, ID

Owns this car

Too many problems for a truck with only 54k miles. Defective low engine coolant sensor. $800 to replace the sensor and coolant reservoir with same faulty design/parts. Class action law suite? Left and right ball joints need replace on truck that is supposed to be "Off Road" but has rarely seen an unpaved or rough road.
