Used 2008 Dodge Ram 1500 for Sale

My vehicle is a Dodge Ram 1500 truck. It has a full back seat as well as a normal sized bed. It is black in color on the exterior with grey cloth seats on the interior. It came with AM/FM radio and single CD player, a port for an MP3 player and satellite radio. I liked the fact that it was a truck as I had been driving a compact car for the previous five years. I also liked it because I had heard the good things about Dodge trucks from my uncle in Louisiana. I liked the price we got on the truck as well. What I disliked was the fact that a smoker was driving the truck before and apparently a heavy-handed one. The ashtray was removed, but you could see where they dropped ashes. Also, the knobs on the radio were rubbed until they did not work 100% from the start.

I am overall satisfied with my vehicle. I found that it is very dependable. I bought the truck in Norman, OK. The body style at the time peaked my initial interest. As I learned more about the vehicle, I literally feel in love from the 5.7L V8 HEMI engine to sliding back window. I not a work vehicle kind of guy, but if I needed to tow anything it was definitely up to the task. I've hauled loads of 2,000 lbs. + From Oklahoma to North Carolina and the Dodge Ram 1500 Big Horn handled it like a champ. In the past I've driven other trucks which seemed to bog down on the trucks engine and made me cause about passing up gas stations on long trips on unfamiliar roads. Since December 2007 I have moved around a lot being I'm in the military and for two years I had to leave my beloved truck and travel over seas. During that period of time my vehicle was placed in storage where it sat occasionally being cranked. When I returned from my deployment a good look over and a change of oil and she cranked right up, and as of this day she has giving me as many worries as I would have thought.

I love my truck it is very dependable and has just the right bit of space on the inside and a long enough truck bed to get most jobs done. The truck is priced kind of high but much lower than other brands like Ford and Toyota. Its performance is about what you would expect for its price range (about $25000) which is good but not close to heavy duty. Over all I am content with my purchase and think that it is a reasonable buy for anyone looking for a truck for mid usage. Any one needing to move anything over 5000 lbs will need a Dodge Ram 2500 or higher for pulling, carrying on the truck bed is only about 1200 lbs. One last key thing about the truck is its gas usage which is very high. The average driver may get about 12 - 15 miles per gallon. This is a big let down but the truck is a 2008.
