Used RAM 1500 for Sale in La Mesa, CA

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!!

After going through a really horrible experience at Mossy Nissan in El Cajon about 2 yrs ago I needed to find myself a dealership that my family and I can trust and count on. In this particular occasion, I was on a mission to find a good and reliable car for my soon ti be 18 year old daughter whi soon will be going to college. I began my small journey in El Cajon with the exeption of Mossy Nissan of course. I hit a few places and of course they tried to get me to buy something I didn't want or tried getting to lease a vehicle. Anyway, after a week of thinking if other places, my brother advised me to go visit Carl Burger. He had purched 2 vehicles from them and strongly recommended Carl Burger. So there I go....thinking that most likely they'll try to do what most car sales people do. When I got there, I was welcomed by Steven Jaramillo. He asked me several queations before he showed me any cars such as; who was the car for, price range, new or used, monthly payments...etc. after checking out a few cars I had to leave because I had plans for the evening. Steven was not persuasive but yet scheduled me for an appointment for the next day. Well after my evening plans I gave him a call and asked if I can drop by once more and refreshed my numbers and budget. Steven said "No worries, Ill have them all kined up for you with your budget in mind". Im not jojlking when I tell you that when I arrived he and the cars were ready, with the budget I had in mind and style of car. Literally nailed it!!! Steven had made it happen. Well, finance time! Time ti stress right!? I forgot the Manager name...but no joke....best APR, best monthly payment! Better then what i was expecting. No hidden cost. I arrived at Carl Burger at 7:30pm and was out by 8:45ish. This is my point, San Diego os full of car dealerships, the hard part is to look for dealerships that actually acknowledge what your looking for and actually take that into consideration. Im haooy to say that I found my new car dealership. Thanks for taking your time Steven! I really appreciate all your help! Also, thanks to the staff tjat was there helping me out as well. L

This car is better than my expectations , roomy , quick Room for the family and the two large dogs Hauls anything and everything. Love everything about this truck

My family has been purchasing vehicles at Carl Burger Dodge since 1978. I returned there 3 yrs ago and purchased a 2012 Challenger - which was an awesome experience. 2 weeks ago I went to just look at the new Ram 2500 and 3500 Diesel trucks. I found THE ONE that I fell head over heels for. I wanted to sell my Challenger and I also had a 04 F250 to put cash down on a truck. Sid listened to my situation, allowed me to test drive the truck I liked and test drive the 2500 Ram to compare the rides. Sid was knowledgeable about both trucks gave me pros and cons about each for the type of use I am going to use the truck for and was never pushy, deceitful or try to convince me I needed to purchasing "something". My husband was with me and suggested that we run some numbers to see how much I need to come up with to purchase the truck I was interested in. Sid's sales team - Garrett and Gary - worked with Sid and me, providing several options to choose from that would work for me when I decided to purchase this truck. Well, I was so excited that they LISTENED to my initial thought that I just wanted to get information first and come back to buy when I felt ready, were so easy to work with, provided me with excellent options after just a few questions that fit my specific situation without any high pressure sales techniques, deceiving number juggling or the 100 trips back and forth to the "manager" game. As my husband and I were discussing the options they provided (which we took our time) Sid was so kind and patient, offered us drinks, snacks, food and made us feel like we were long time friends. Sid and his sales team never made us fell like we were wasting their time if I walked out without buying that truck. After a reasonable amount of time Gary came back to our table to find out how we were doing, asked if we decided yet without any pressure, asked if we had questions, concerns, or counter offers. Again, I never felt like I was being pressured or that they were tag teaming me to convince me to buy the truck. My husband (which was also so awesome and wonderful with helping me make the best decision for me buying this new truck) and I weighed out the options and I picked the one that allowed me to say YES!!! and rang the hell out of that bell!! loll So THANK YOU SID!! You are awesome at your job!! Garret and Gary you too were AWESOME to work with and I thank you for all of your help! Thank you for not pressuring me or making me feel like I was wasting your time if I walked away and for all of the options you provided me to purchase my dream truck!! Last but not least is when I signed all the finance documents. Mike was very pleasant to work with as well. He also did not try to pressure me into purchasing all of the additional add on's (warranty, service stuff, etc.) He provided me with the information that was available and accepted the answers I gave without the guilt trip. He worked with me to so I could obtain financing thru my own bank because I felt it was more convenient for me. THANK YOU MIKE!! I would highly recommend Carl Burger Dodge for any vehicle purchase!!

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.

I was in the market for a used (as close to new as I could get) 2017 F-250 which, I found through auto trader which happened to be a Carl Burger Dodge in La Mesa, CA. Once I contacted them they quickly reached out to me and helped to secure the truck even though I could not come and see it for a few days. Sam Potres was my sales contact and he answered all of my questions, conducted a detailed FaceTime walk through of the truck and gave me the confidence to commit even though I hadn't seen the vehicle in person. Once at the dealership the buying experience was quick and hassle free, paper work was done in about 30 minutes (thanks to Mike Kaziyev in finance)! Overall great experience working with Sam, who definitely went the extra mile to make sure I was happy with the process. Highly recommend the guys at Carl Burger Dodge.

I love my truck and the best part is that it came with a lifetime powertrain warranty! comfortable and the performance is through the roof!

I started off my day of car searching in San Diego with high hopes, we had a pretty tight budget and soon my hope started to dwindle. Then we regrouped and found Carl Burger Dodge Jeep Ram in La Mesa on Yelp. Since we live in La Mesa I was shocked there was a dealership so close that I didn't know about. From the moment we drove on the lot Jamie was there to help us through the process. We parked, told him in great detail the VERY specific vehicle that I was looking for. Jamie was extremely knowledgeable and had a no pressure sales technique (which after a day of car dealerships was refreshing). While waiting to get the keys to test drive a 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee, Jamie steered us in the direction of their used cars... and there it was. Right in front of me was the Jeep that I had been dreaming about every since I could drive! It was even within our price range, I almost fainted. Once the negotiation started Jamie and Arturo (Tony) were able to fill our requests for car fax for the used car, best prices on both a 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the 2015 used Jeep Grand Cherokee. We ultimately made the decision, well really I did, to go with the used car that had all the bells and whistles. They were able to give me a generous offer on my trade in and get the car down to the price that I asked for, now that's how car buying should be! I rang the bell and off to financing we went! Sonny was wonderful to work with. He was able to work with us on an extended warranty at a reasonable price and fix a couple tiny details on the paperwork with ease. He was able to lower our 5.99% APR to 3.99% with the bank. We couldn't be more pleased with our experience at Carl Burger Dodge Jeep Ram in La Mesa. I walked away with an AMAZING car, not feeling cheated but that I got a great price and wonderful service. Thank you to everyone that we worked with for being the cherry on top of a log day of car searching!

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.

To be honest I dread buying a new car, don???t get me wrong, I love new cars, but I hate the process. I hate the pushy sales people, the long wait, the paperwork, and knowing that most likely they will take advantage of me and sell me tons of things I don???t want. I walked into the Carl Burger Jeep dealer knowing exactly what car I wanted. Let me tell you, IT WAS SO EASY! 0 pushiness, very friendly, an best of all it took less than 45 minutes!!! I was amazed at the attention to detail; Jack Ford took the time to explain each button and app in the car (hello SiriusXM Guardian) so many cool features in the 2018 Grand Cherokee. Bennett Owen made the paperwork so seamless and easy to follow. I purchased a maintenance plan that I actually needed and wanted at a great price. He was easy to talk to and relatable. He made sure I got the best interest rate possible. This experience has changed my view in car salesman and dealerships.

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.

This is just for the one particular guy who is consider as a VIP for Carl's Burger Dodge. his name is (Frank Nelson) don't attempt to buy any cars from this gentleman !!!!! I particular suggest that you bypass him and go to another salesman. (Frank Nelson) is a con Artist liar you can lie to me but don't like to my wife. Don't promise !!!!!! What you can't provide not only that but to get another sales person involved without their knowledge of what you were trying to do; just to sell a car was uncalled for. This was a sad thing to do, giving us the runaround week after week. Lying week after week. You have promised me a different type of license plate holder for my 2017 charger so I didn't have to make xxxxx on the front bumper you also promised me an extra tank of gas which I did not get !!!!!!! Carl Burger Dodge? Is this is the type of sales rep you want representing your company !! And to say that he is a VIP working in your office should have better knowledge of having a good customer service !!!!!representing your company. I can tell you this I have brought two cars from you guys in the last year I will never go back to your dealer to buy another car until the situation is fixed. Don't promise what you get not give. Thank You From Enrique Vazquez Jr. please remember this is only for the sales rep Frank Nelson over all dealer will go out there way to help you out. Thank You Arturo Camarena car salesman for going out of your way in trying to help us and Fernando Vidana of Finance for making it happen Thank You both for your service and Great customer service.

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.

Bought a used 2018 Pacifica off the lot on Labor Day weekend. It has a broken latch that prevents stow and go. I was told by Sales Dept. to make a Service appt. and it will be fixed right away. Did as I was told and took PTO from my job to come in and sit for a few hours to be informed "We don't have the part, you will need to come in when we get it." I left angry and not confident that I would even be contacted with a follow up. *update. When I went back Bud made it right. His professionalism was very impressive. I'm happy now. Thanks Bud!

This is my first truck. I traded in my 5 Series BMW for something more practical. Enjoying the power, style and the iconnect system is so well designed and very intuitive. I hope my joy for the truck continues for many years.

Mikhael contacted us shortly after we took our 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan for an oil change and offered us to take a look at upgrading our vehicle. Our warranty had expired. We had 135,000 miles racked up on the odometer, and honestly, the van was starting to give us trouble which meant $$$. Mikhael assured us that we could trade in our van and they would take care of the rest of the outstanding loan on it. All he wanted us to do was come in and look at some vehicles with him. From the second we shook hands with Mikhael and introduced ourselves, he was all smiles, professional, focused, personable, and genuinely nice. From start to end, everything ran very smoothly. There was a kiddie area our kids hung out in until the deal was done. We got a great deal with the trade in, an excellent price for the 2018 Chrysler Pacifica, the negotiation was not a painful process, and we walked out with a wonderful warranty package. Everyone worked hard to get us out of there in a timely manner. I cannot say enough about the VIP experience we were given. Thank you to Mikhael Mikhael for contacting us in the first place and handling everything from beginning to end. Thank you also to David Flores, Abel Chemsi in sales and Bennet Owen in Finance. We???ll definitely be recommending you all to our family and friends.

I have dealt with many dealer ships and this is the best one. The people are great and they go out of there way to make sure you get the car you want.I especially want to thank Cy the manager,Pouna the finance manager,John the sales man for your outstanding commitment to excellent customer service and your knowledge of financing in helping me get the car I wanted. I will recommend your dealership to many people. Chris and I thank you all very much you are the best.🗼😀😜🐍🎆🎇

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 bought a Toyota Sienna 2015 for $26,500 I was approved with bad credit, but I had two jobs and an extra income. The'yr all friendly and like to help me get the car. And that's what they did, I do recommend them.

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.

The team of Michael, Pouria, Cy and Aziz were all great. No hassle, and no problems! Everything was very transparent, no mystery. The price and financing was discussed, and then not 1 penny more was charged for anything. They shared multiple CarFax/AutoCheck background checks on the used car I bought, and thoroughly explained everything. The paperwork was clear, no gimmicks. They were very patient, friendly, and answered every question thoughtfully. They have 500+ great cars, there was no pressure to buy, final car choice was mine. The car I bought was sold below blue book value, perfect condition, 30k miles only, and 1 previous owner. Great place to buy a good quality used car!

This car met all what I need. It had plenty of upgrades( custom, grill, front/ back bumpers, rims , tires, headers, muffler, fenders and air filter)

I had a really good experience at National City Auto Center I found a beautiful 2015 XJL low miles at a amazingly good deal! Don was my sales specialist, nice and very helpful. Don called me a couple days after my purchase to inquire about my satisfaction in regards to the vehicle I purchased. Over all I'm glad I decided to go with National City auto center, I will definitely recommend my friends and family

This truck is great. Easy on gas for a truck. Plenty of power for me and nice on long drives. It's all we drive anymore.

It was my first time buying a car, and I???ve been searching high & low everywhere in San Diego. I went to a bunch of reputable dealerships, but this one definitely was worth my time. I thought I was out of luck finding a reasonably priced & in good condition used car, but this place was my last stop. Not to mention the service was amazing. I got my Scion TC 2016 without a problem. Mauricio helped me get all the paper work down within less than an hour, I???d say. Then I got my car & that was it! I saw their variety of cars & they have a good selection of different cars. Worth a stop to see if your future car is there :)

this is the first truck we have ever owned.. unbelievable ride comfort and handling is amazing...plenty of room for five passengers.. great value for the price

Easy and quick negotiation done online. Customer service at the dealership was excellent. Fast hassle-free processing of purchase. Very satisfied with my buying experience.

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.

Was in and out quickly as advertised fpr quick oil changec, car check up was thorough and well explained

Meets ever need in a truck.this truck has a very smooth ride to it. It is very Dependable vehicle. This has been used as a Daily driving. Truck has never been driving hard. Very comfortable driving

What do you do when you must be at a Funeral 168 Miles away and suddenly your only transportation has a SERIOUS unknown hick-up and warning lights. I have a Mobility Disability, a Service Dog and obligation miles away. It's the end of the Month and I have less than $300 to my name, it takes $500 minimum on a debit card to rent a car, what do you do? I placed my hat in hand and took it to the top and all I received was compassion. I purchased my 08 Ram 3500 Megacab new from Powell, they helped me through repairs after a major crash (no my fault) but during the "Bankruptcy Slowdown" at Chrysler. The Powell Dealership / Family also serviced my Old Truck 96 Ram which now has 228,600 miles on the original engine and transmission. While I appreciate I have a good amount of "History" with the Dealership; I've watched and listened to how they treat others and on this day, with me they took it to an unprecedented level. I was put in an "In House" rental, my truck was diagnosed while I was gone and the ONLY reason the "Quality of Repairs" is 4 Stars, not 5 is Manufacture Electronics design issue - they weren't able to isolate the problems without dropping the Transmission, something I have to find a way to pay for - that's not their fault! Most of all, even when the news isn't the best - they didn't try to underestimate the possibilities. Honesty is always the best policy, that's what I got. I hate funerals - I would have REALLY Hated breaking down along the 15 or 10 on my way into the Desert. Thank you Jason, Sarah and Amr for your help on a very sad day! MDL

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.

I do my oil changed at the dealer because I want to have quality ,also if I need parts I usually get them there,price to keep my Dakota running is not bad comparing with other places like AutoZone,and other places

SUPER CLEAN FULL LUXURY IN LESS THE 10K.GREAT VALUE FOR UR MONEY READY TO WORK. V6 4LT SUPER TURBO CHARGE ENGIN GREAT ON GASS AND FAST AS xxxx

Great customer service very polite and respectful. Thanks dodge¿. You brightened up my day

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 easiest and fastest I have ever bought a car. Brandon was fantastic and there was zero pressure to buy, and when we decided to, Mauricio had us out of the finance and signing portion inside of twenty minutes - forget spending multiple hours at the Ford dealer like I had previously. There were a couple very minor issues that came up after the purchase, and they had me taken care of in no time flat. Seriously - I drove to Escondido from Alpine, and I would again.

Bedt vehicle I've owned would highly recommend to anyone was not sure if I'd like diesel but its a great engine uses my less fuel than my hemi did with plenty of power
