Awesome bargain camper puller!

Was in the market for a slightly used half ton to pull our camper, quickly realized that to get what I needed, I was seeing 3/4 tons on my radar and that NEW Tradesmen were in the same range - base models have a TON of great features and the Hemi provides more towing capacity than the best in class half tons. I've driven trucks professionally and own an old Tundra. LOVE this truck. Very comfortable and powerful. Mine came with trailer package, snow chief package, running boards, spray in bedliner. I got it for 46k. (Sticker 48,880) Pulls my 6800GVWR camper effortlessly, truck wants to RUN, I have to work to keep it from running over 65mph while towing! Handles great - much better turning radius than my old Tundra. Super comfortable ride but it IS a "Truck" truck - ride is bouncer than a half ton, it's built to carry a load. You WILL feel bumps unloaded.. Rides better loaded than not! Mileage is as reported. I live in a hilly region, get about 12-14 local, 15-16 highway, 9.7mpg pulling a camper. Highly recommend!

Handles well and very powerful.

I got a crew cab to carry my truck camper. It's comfortable, has a lot of room inside, and handles well. The Hemi engine is very powerful. I get 16mpg unloaded. I love this truck.

Truck will meet all of my future's family needs for the next several years and hopefully become a collector's item since it is a 75th Anniversary Edition

Quiet Power

The Big Horn Night Edition is extremely quiet and comfortable for a work truck. The seats are real comfortable. And the active noise reduction is really impressive. The truck is very powerful. The controls are well within reach, easy to use, and intuitive. The mpg is better than I've seen in reviews. Its way too early to judge reliability but, I've had a Dodge van for 20+ years and assume the good reliability on the van has gotten better on Dodge products since .

Really awesome machine

My name is Nathaniel Hodum and I’m from Mississippi Gulf Cost area. A few months ago I decided to buy a new bigger truck. I went with the Dodge Ram 2500 Off Road 4x4. Just want to say that it is an absolutely amazing machine and it blew my expectations on every level. Sadly to say but I totaled the truck about two weeks ago and the paramedics said that if I would have been in any other vehicle I would never have walked away from the crash. I wish this site would let me upload pictures of the truck now. It’s unbelievable

only have 541 miles so far a great truck

Nice truck was driving GM switched to RAM for the cummins, comfort is not bad for a 2500, Cummins has plenty of power, like the puck system for the fifth wheel hitch hoping this truck will be reliable and I will be driving it for years to come

RAM Tough

We needed a truck with the ability to pull what we needed pulled and this one met the requirements. Not only is it a great performance truck, it a very nice looking ride 😉
