Used RAM 1500 for Sale in Rockford, IL

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 made an appointment online to test drive a Nissan XTerra. By the way, whoever does their web work and seo (search engine optimization) did an excellent job!. When I did an online search of who has used Xterra's in my price range Manley's was the only dealership to have one. There must be other used XTerra's, and probably closer to where I live as I drove an hour to get to Manley's, but I specifically chose Manley's because they had one and I knew I wanted to drive it. Back to the salespersom... She was great to work with. She was friendly when I came into the dealership, jumped right up to help me and took charge in showing me what I might be interested in after she listened to me. We drove several vehicles and she said she would look for a Subaru, which is a must for me to test drive before I make any buying decisions. I didn't feel any pressure or intimidation, which is what I was worried about. And I certainly felt important even though I'm not ready to buy right now exactly but by October or November. I haven't bought a vehicle in over 10 years! Plus, I received a follow-up e-mail from the GM just checking to make sure my experience was good and to see if there was anything else I needed.

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.

All questions asked through the Dealership's web service were answered promptly and completely. I am electing to hold on making a purchase at this time but once I decide to pull the trigger I will (at least) give this dealership a shot ~ based on the experience.

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 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.

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.

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.

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

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 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

I lost power on my Equinox driving down the Interstate,. AAA towed me to Butitti's (sp?) but then, as I wanted in the first place, over to Sawicki's. Mostly because Bergstrom Automotive who does my service had a hard time believing the exact diagnosis. it was towed to Appleton, Wi. Sawicki was right on target with diagnosis, etc. I'm not sure how the final bill would compare. I was very pleased with the service and your people, especially Xavier. There was a cute guy with blonde curly hair who was very friendly - my husband thinks he's the owner.

Will not own another truck besides a dodge ram great truck for the price and performance is outstanding as well as the ride is most comfortable I’ve had I may truxk

Amazing service by these guys and gals; they know how to treat you right! Brooks Kelly helped me find my Malibu and took care of all me and my family's needs. I will be back again to buy from Sawicki Motors.

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!

Bought my FIRST brand new vehicle from them. The whole sales staff was very knowledgeable and easy to work with. The trade-in value was more than I had hoped for. The staff valued my time and made sure I understood every aspect of the sale. I WILL be purchasing again from Brian Bemis!

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.

First, let's just say that I am leery of dealerships because they usually charge high in labor. However, I will say that I now ONLY allow them to work on my car. Brandon is one of the personnel there and he is WONDERFUL! He goes above and beyond. My car was overheating in St. Charles (overheating/coolant issue) being a mom with a son who was leaving from medical care and needing to get home, I called and spoke with Brandon, he gave me some advice to get me home, and was willing to stay a few minutes after hours to take a quick look at the car. The people are friendly (other customers and staff). It is clean, free soda, popcorn, coffee, and television. If they had a free hotspot, that would be my hang out spot. If its time for a new car, I'm hoping and looking forward to getting it from DeKalb Sycamore Chevy!...I wonder if Brandon can be my sales/finance person, as well :) LOL

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.

The salesman Frank was nice. The car was represented online as it was in person. My only complaint is that they seemed to rush me through things, and I had to stop them several times to just slow down. No such thing as a perfect used car, but I am happy I was able to deal with a good, local, reliable dealership.

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

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

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

I am always pleased with my experience at Burtness.

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!!

This truck runs great and is comfortable for road trips. Plenty of leg room with coolers under the rear floor mats. 4 wheel drive is great when you need it

I'm all in on FCA products when they produce a truck like my RAM ecodiesel which hands down is outstanding on all fronts and checks all the boxes. Queit. Roomy. Looks and rides great. All with fabulous gas (diesel) mileage.
