Used Dodge Ram 1500 for Sale

This is the perfect vehicle for life at the beach. I have a short bed, so its easy to fit into parking spots, but big enough to haul even double kayaks ( I have worked as a kayak ecoguide), a real plus when delivering or picking up kayaks from tourists. Because I have 22" RIMS, I am high enough above the 70,000 cars each season to avoid pedestrians and other cars. This is a real concern here on the island. This truck is my hurricane kit as well. It goes through lots of water securely, and I keep it packed and ready to go. I'm pretty sure it would float! Mechanics are great, all I do is put oil and gas in it (HOPE THIS DOESN'T JINX IT!). The econo feature, which cuts cylinders in stalled traffic, works great. My mileage is about 19 mpg, which is good enough to keep me from feeling guilty for driving my full size 8 cylinder truck, with A/C blasting. Hey, its hot here, I appreciate that.

I absolutely love our Dodge Ram 1500. The ride is exceptionally smooth. We were able to take our 80+ year old Grandmother on the vacation of her dreams in it and never once did she have any issue with back pain caused by jostling like she has in other vehicles. The cab is spacious and comfortable, whether its just my family of 3 out on a shopping trip or my husband and a cab full of guys headed to a firefighting training event. Everyone who has chanced to ride in it is always impressed at the details, capacity, and smoothness. The only complaint we’ve ever had is that its difficult to climb into since it has 22 inch wheels and we nixed the step up bar. However I will say I am only 5’1” and have not problems, so I think the issue lies in the individual’s health, not the truck manufacturing. Overall I love it and after 3 years of ownership, and a series of no-fault traffic accidents I am feel confident and safe in our Ram Truck. Strong, reliable, and affordable.

Overall, it's been good. There have been a few recalls on it, but the dealership took care of them. The hemi has a nice sound to it, especially if you put flow master exhaust like I did. If you get a 1500, make sure you get the 5.7 liter hemi and not the 4.7 liter. Handles good in the dirt, but if you go off road more than a few times, this may not be the truck for you.
