2022 RAM ProMaster 2500 consumer reviews

This van is simply put a fleet queen, features and driver comforts are secondary or even tertiary. The seats are comfortable enough and infotainment screen is decent, but that's the end of the good news. This thing is so awful loud even with decent tires and despite being a decent screen the sound quality of the speakers is terrible and there isn't even a road noise adjustment! So you're traveling at highway speeds and nearly have to max the volume to hear a phone call but when you slow to city speeds you're ears are gonna hurt from how loud you had it cranked. It handles decent enough on the road, but it takes some getting used to the fact that you're effectively sitting on the front axle and so you're liable to cut corners too sharp if you're used to a standard car or truck. Turning radius is trash with the long wheelbase and fwd making it feel even worse. If you tow anything with this you'll be miserable in cities and parking lots. Styling, it's ugly with a bug eyed face that even a mother would want to paper bag. Functionally the cargo area is decent the extra width in the back compared to a transit for example is quite nice. Quality? Whats that? 40k miles and it's on its second transmission and has had numerous electrical glitches. It's pretty gutless when getting on the highway, but that's fairly standard for this category of vehicle. Transmission, despite being weak it actually shifts really smoothly, but if you're towing or doing mountain driving you're gonna be popping it into manual a lot! Engine breaking is pretty poor in my opinion. Why on earth are electric mirrors not standard on these? Huge blind spots with the factory mirrors. Overall, only buy out of necessity or for a super price. Then at least you can say that you got what you paid for.
