Used 2019 RAM 1500 for Sale in Clinton, IL

We recently had to buy a newer car. We previously purchased a van from Douglas Dodge in Nov of 2015, so there was no question where we wanted to go to for our next vehicle. We worked with Dave Larue both times and we couldn't be more pleased! We have two outstanding vehicles that Dave sold to us and it was the best car buying experience each time! We highly recommend going to Douglas and working with Dave and the staff there!

I have owned 5 GMC Sierra Denali's and really loved those trucks but the 2019 Ram Limited is on a whole other level. The 5.7 is slightly slower than the 6.2 but in every other category the Ram is superior. I am very pleased with this truck.

Searched nationally for the perfect Fiat Spider 124 at a value price. Came across Douglas Dodge in Clinton, Illinois while sitting in the comfort of my Minnesota home (with snow still on the ground in April but thinking convertible anyway!). The car I was looking for is not easy to find. There were about 20 possibilities at dealerships throughout the country. I contacted Douglas Dodge and was fortunate to have been assigned a veteran sales pro there named Dave Lareau. He made my nervousness of maybe buying a car sight unseen in another state ease quickly. Dave was great and went so far as to pick me up at my hotel about 25 miles away so I could get to the dealership. Car was ready, pristine, gassed up and ready for me to drive it back to Minnesota. Dave got his atlas out and showed me how to get to the "river route". I spent the day putting my new little convertible sports car through the twisting turns along the Mississippi and just beat sundown as I pulled into my garage in Minnesota. Thanks so much to Dave and his team for making my car buying experience a memorable and enjoyable one. I also own Jeeps...and who knows...I might make the trip down again when its time to change those out since Douglas Dodge has quite an inventory of Wranglers, and since I am sure Dave will still be there.

This truck is the nicest vehicle I have ever driven. It’s beautiful to look at from the outside in. It’s extremely comfortable to drive, but also feels like a truck.

Found a budget priced used car for my 16 year-old son. Priced very reasonably and Dave Lareau was super helpful and worked with us on the grand total price (incl. tax, title, and license) so that we could stay within our preferred price range. Happy with my experience at this dealership and would recommend them to others!

4WD Hemi 1500. Just returned from trip from north Ala to Lancaster, PA and back. Interstate, highway and local sightseeing. I average 22.4 miles per gallon. I routinely average between 20 and 21 mpg. Truck has a 3.23 rear axle. Performance/ nimbleness is outstanding. Love this truck. Bought last August.

I was looking to buy a slightly used truck and came across Douglas Dodge's website. They had the perfect sized truck I was looking for, along with a quality price. I bought my Ram 1500 from Dave Lareau. He was very personable and easy to talk to. Overall a solid guy, I would most highly recommend speaking with him if you are in the market for a new or used dodge vehicle! Davis

The 2019 Ram 1500 crew cab Rebel with air suspension, 12" nav display, and the 5.7 Hemi is pretty nice. Pros: comfort, usb-c that quick charges front and back, easy to use nav system, comfortable ride (with caveats), nice convenience features like rain sensing wipers, etc. Awesome sunroof, great styling inside and out. Oh yeah, easy tailgate. Soft down and easy up. Electronic latch. I know that's low on the list but I sure is nice. Cons: ride is not good in aero suspension setting. Have to turn off that feature. Fuel economy is terrible. Typical 11-13 mpg. If someone says it is higher they are either not using it in traffic or they are lying. The back up emergency braking is jarring and over sensitive to the point of being terrible and unusable. I think the rebel is awesome, and the air suspension is a must. But get nerf bars because waiting for it to raise and lower every time you get out or in is not reasonable. It's not so much a con, but bears mentioning. Reliability is anyone's guess, obviously. It is a strong truck. Transmission shifts very smoothly. In the rebel you lose the 4-wheel auto setting, which is a really nice thing to have. My old ram had it and I got into the habit of using it in the rain when I wasn't hauling anything. I do not like the super luxury trucks typically, but the Rebel trim is a great compromise. You get the rubber floor mats standard, reasonable off road capability (face it that's needed even if you don't go mudding), and while it is indeed a"pretty" truck, it can get down to business without you worrying you are going to scratch your Sunday go to meetin' vehicle. I opted for a drop in bedliner which I personally feel does a better job of protecting against dents. In the end, you don't need my or anyone else's review to decide on a new ram. They are excellent vehicles. Far better fit and finish than any Ford, far better materials and comfort than any Chevy. Not that I'm a religious purist about it, but then again, I bought mine because my last truck was a ram. My next one might or might not be. For now, they are a clear winner.

We are repeat customers, having had a great experience with our first auto purchase here. Dave was nice enough to notify me when a vehicle matching my criteria was traded in. We drove almost 2 hours, which was well worth it! The vehicle was exactly what we were looking for and we drove it home. They are very friendly , and efficient. We had one problem with the title on our previous purchase , which was the fault of the State of Illinois, the dealership had fixed quickly after our first call to them.

The Ram Bighorn is a very nice looking vehicle, with the performance require. The interior is comfortable and all euipment easy to use. Thr Ram has the ride of a Cadilac.

We bought our previous car there and thought we'd go back for our next one! Dave Lareau did a great job lining up cars similar to what we were looking for so that we cold find just the right one! They have so many cars there and we got just what we were looking for!! Thank you!

The all new 2019 Ram 1500 is beautifully designed and engineered as long as you are wanting to spend $58,000 on a piece of yard art. I hope that you enjoy spend a lot of time at your local dealership where you purchased it because it will either be sitting in your yard or at the dealership. I purchased mine on 1/18/19 which was the day the problems began. I noticed a damaged trim piece and I called it to the salespersons attention who in turn got the body shop manager involved. They said they would take care of the issue. When we went to sign the papers no we owe for the trim piece. Oh yeah, I forgot about that, after reminding them the paperwork was filled out. Well, it only took 3 times of ordering the part and trips to the dealer to get the proper piece put on. No big deal, its installed. The real problems started six days after I purchased the truck. Here comes the first recall in the mail. This one has to do with an intermittent steering failure due to a faulty ground connection. No parts in stock. Have to order it. Parts comes in, I have to take it back to have the work performed. Then almost 30 days later here comes the second recall notice in the mail. This one was for the brake pedal that could possibly fall off if you use the adjustable pedals. Again, no parts in stock. Have to order and be put on a waiting list. After several calls to FCA, and being hung up on one of those times, I was told that the repair parts were being issued to dealers in limited quantities. Can’t slow down production to take care of current customer issues, now can we? FCA advised me in the meantime, just don’t use the adjustable pedals. Of course, I already had, and the vehicle will be safe to drive. I don’t know about you but I’m not willing to risk driving a vehicle that the brake pedal could possibly fall off of because a customer service rep from FCA tells me it’s safe. I still haven’t been able to figure out how intermittent steering loss and the possibly of your brake pedal falling off is safe but I digress. FCA did give me four free oil changes for my trouble. SCORE!!! Then the front brakes would squeal terribly during stopping. Apparently, this is a known issue as there is a service bulletin on the condition. The solution, replace both front brake calipers and pads. That’s right, all new front brakes. Mind you there are only 2300 miles on the truck. Most of which was going to and from the dealer. The other issue is the speed adjustable volume can barely be heard at all. Why is the volume adjustment inadequate you ask? The reason the service advisor gave me was because the active noise control module is interfering with the speed adjustable volume. FCA has designed two systems that interfere with each other and installed them on a vehicle. The current solution to this? Use the steering wheel controls to adjust the volume. Service said they tested other 2019 Ram’s on the lot and they all display the same condition so it’s not really a problem. By that logic if every engine explodes at 5000 miles then it’s not really a problem because hey, they all do it. I spent an extra $4,595.00 for the level 2 equipment group and another $1,095.00 for the 12-inch display and this is the answer I get. Completely unacceptable. I have been buying Dodge Ram’s since 2001, which is still on the road, and this by far is the worst Ram I have ever purchased. Three months in with these many issues I don’t want to think of what is next. If you are in need of a new truck now, stay as far away from the Ram as possible. I should have gone with my gut feeling and spent the extra money and bought the Ford. Save yourself a lot of time and trouble and buy something else. Time to see if I can get FCA to hang up on me again.

I am looking for a 2017 Buick Lacrosse and I was shown one on their lot which was close to the one that I would purchase with options that I want.

I have been driving Ford F150 Pick ups for the past 12 years, and this 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie, blows them all away, when looking at new pick ups the Ford has not changed, except to get worse, the interior is now very plasticity and the truck seems old and antiquated. The Ram is all new, rides so much better, looks better, my V-8 has more power than my old Fords turbo V-6 and I am getting 22 mpg, the options are unbelievable with a reclining rear seat and a huge 12" touchscreen that operates everything. The Ram has the Ford beat on payment in a big way, I Saved $40 a month for all New compared to Old and outdated

The truck has better acceleration than I was expecting. Great fuel mileage, will be testing out the towing soon. Very comfortable and roomy interior design

I was looking for a crew cab used truck, good selection of used trucks just didn't have what I needed will keep them in mind.

Bob Ridings in Decatur, has been a pleasure to work with in making accommodations to get me in a vehicle I liked. The staff was friendly and when I did have to wait I was offered a drink, coffee, soda etc. They worked with me when other dealerships wouldn't.

Bob Ridings has the most pleasant staff. They are efficient, but at the same time have the utmost care of my vehicle in mind.

I just purchased a truck from Rick Ridings with Cory Fane. He was very professional during the sales experience and handled some unexpected situations that came up during the process. He was very accommodating with my questions and did not exert pressure to purchase at any time. Very well done, Cory.

Service department, as usual, was quick, friendly and courteous.

The experience was wonderful my Daughter went to the dealership with her sister and brother in law to find a new vehicle for the family not so hard on gas. The vehicle we had as a trade in was my deceased husbands truck which sucked gas daily. I'm working 12 to 13 hours daily 6 days a week so the kids did the investigating for me. The salesman Dan Lawrence was amazing he informed them of everything dealing with the car and my family was able to make a decision I was happy with, Dan was helpful to the fact of even be able to come to me with paper work because I couldn't leave my job, and their business hours weren't going to work for me. Filled the tank with 14 dollars yes gas prices are low right now but filling the truck up at theses same prices was close to 50 dollars it's been a week and it's still going the truck fill up would have needed gas again by thursday. Love our new Nissan Versa it's 2014.

An overall pleasant experience. Purchased a 2014 Chevy Equinox. I drove a couple different vehicles to help me decide which I liked best. Olivia was a friendly and knowledgeable sales person and with no pressure and made my purchase very easy. Everyone at the dealership made me feel at ease during the purchase. I would recommend Bob Ridings In Decatur, IL. to anyone looking for a newer or new car.

All I can say is wow! Great customer service, Stephanie got me the vehicle I wanted (Dodge Journey),financing, extended warranty, payment. I couldn't ask for better service!

We have bought 2 cars from Bob Ridings Decatur. Both times we had amazing service. We were able to ask questions with no hesitation from the sales people. I would not say this about any other company but they made car buying easy

Very cooperative and receptive. Would buy car if they had what I wanted.

My Chevy with apex 350 HP V8 4x2 was nearly always in the range of 21 MPG, where my 2018 Ram is running about 19 MPG, but is 5.7, and has 4x4, making it a bit heavier, plus about 50 more HP. The Silverado was quick, but the Ram hauls! Learning to keep my foot out of fast... We make an annual trip of about 1000 miles back and forth to COfrom Tucson AZ, will be interesting to see how it does for MPG on highway. Looked closely at the 19s, but purchased a slightly used 18, saving us about 10,000. Am questioning the wisdom of not getting the19, with latest technology?? Bottom line, darned hard to beat an exceptional truck! My toughest adjustment is the hockey puck transmission selector. I nearly purchased a Ram when I purchased the Silverado, but didn’t like the puck, I was correct, still hate it, lowest part of the truck! I’d pay more to have a traditional gear selector!!

I have worked with Dave at Ridings before and like last time he was a pleasure to work with! I am from Decatur but moved a little over a year ago to Glendale Heights(2.5 hours north) and they were going to send someone up for me to finish paperwork at my work because they lost power on Saturday when I was in town to purchase my Pathfinder! I don't know many places that would offer that!

I can't say enough about Tim Stuepfert and the Sam Leman family in Bloomington Illinois. In the past 9 months I've bought two new vehicles from Sam Leman's and Tim was my go to guy for getting the job done. Tim made my experience pleasant and hassle free. My experience working with Tim, there was never any pressure in buying, but making sure I found what I was looking for and agreeing on a price I was happy with. I've always bought my past vehicles from other dealers, but after meeting Tim and working with the Sam Leman family.. I'll never go any where else. I can drive into any of their dealerships at any given time and get a free car wash, a cold drink while I wait and back on the road in minutes.. That's is what I call customer service! Sam Leman's is a family owned American company that is dedicated to serving the Amercan people.. If your looking for a new ride and quality people ready to help and serve you, Sam Leman's is the place to go! Ask for Tim Stuepfert and you'll have nothing but the greatest experience ever!

Smooth, good looking, Hemi strong RAM that made you feel like you owned the roads. Could not have asked for more out of a Truck, and I have owned many.
