Overall, this vehicle has been a good purchase. It is great as a work truck and moving material around, but it doesn't get the greatest gas mileage. When gas is expensive, I can really feel it. The engine seems to work great, although it is quite loud and has a couple of odd noises. The accelerates just fine and brakes good as well. The brakes are very squeaky, which is very annoying, but it doesn't seem to stop their braking power at all. The ride is comfortable, but the window opener is right in the way of my leg, which makes it a slight annoyance. Parking is a pain with a truck, but it makes up for it with the amount of construction materials it can easily haul. I wish that the car had a few more features, but it is an older model, and it is expected that things will be broken over time. The truck has a lot of power and can tow a heavy payload. I have not done a lot of towing yet, but based on what I was told and read, it's a strong towing truck. The ride is very high up, which is nice to see the road but can be difficult for kids or smaller people to get in and out of. Overall for the money I spent, I think in was a good purchase.

The main pro for this vehicle is the fuel economy. My Ram is a crew cab, 4 wheel drive pick up and I am averaging close to 27 miles per gallon. This is unheard of for a full size pick up. The 3.0 V6 diesel is quiet and has plenty of power for driving and for towing. The interior is great and all of the features feel up to date and not out of style. The features are a little tricky to get used to at first, especially the gear selector knob, but once you do it becomes second nature. The truck rides more like an SUV rather than a pick up truck. It's smooth on roads and handles corners very well. My only complaint about the truck is that the steering wheel does not telescope in and out to fit different drivers. The steering wheel adjusts up and down but does not telescope in and out. Other than that minor complaint, I could not be more happy with my Ram truck.
