My father originally purchased this truck, and after 14 years passed it down to me. This truck was my first car and I could not have asked for a better one. In the 16 years that we have owned it, we have only had to perform general maintenance and upkeep. It still runs great and has almost 200,000 miles on it. It has a cab large enough to accommodate an entire family as well as supplies for everything from and entire dorm room's worth of furniture to any home renovation project you can dream up. While it is not the most luxurious truck, it has everything you need including padded seats, air conditioning, heat, automatic windows, and for the retro fans, a cassette player. If I could change one thing about this vehicle it would be the fuel consumption. It was not particularly environmentally friendly when we bought it, and it has not gotten better with time, but I would expect that from the V8 engine it has. Overall, I would recommend this truck to anyone looking for a dependable vehicle that will keep working for years and years.

Very dependable and strong

I have a 2000 Dodge Ram. The only cons I have about this truck is that it doesn't have good gas mileage. Also, the dashboard is cracked. This happens regularly on this model, and I'm not sure why Dodge has not fixed this defect. The truck is extended cab and is very roomy. The middle console provides lots of storage. The truck is very dependable. I bought my truck from my neighbor, who also said is was very dependable. They truck is also very strong. You can hear the toughness when you drive it. I have pulled a lot of things with my truck without any problems. Overall, a great truck.
