Used Ram Ram Pickup 1500 for Sale

My quad cab model is an absolute beast of an animal, in other words it has a lot of power. I love how much cargo it can hold. This year I have been renovating our house for sale and it has carried everything I need it to. There have been no trips to the hardware store where it has failed to do what I need it to. That was one of the many pros about the Ram 1500 2016 model. One of the few cons, which I was sad to find, was the start system failed and I had to have it towed to the dealership and pay $600 to fix it... including the tow. But the good outweighs the bad. Another pro is that it can carry a lot of weight. For one part of the renovation to my house I had to haul 2,000 pounds of bricks. The truck did not slow down from the weight at all. It was like a 1/2 a inch down, but that was to be expected. The V6 engine had enough power to do anything I wanted. I don't tow a lot of stuff, but it did it smoother than what I was expecting when I did tow and with no drop in power.

In January of 2016, a leased a 16 Ram 1500 4x4 Crew Cab, Big Horn Addition. The powertrain chosen was the Pentastar V6 over the 5.7 Hemi V8. I selected the Pentastar V6 for a number for reasons. One, it has good performance due to the gearing of the 8-speed automatic. Second, the fuel economy in very impressive for a full-size pickup truck. Three, it provides all the functionality that I would ever need. Four, the price of the truck with the Pentastar V6 was much less than the Hemi V8. In addition to the powertrain, I love the ride quality if the coil link suspension. Ride more like a car based SUV than a full body on frame truck. The cabin room is perfect for a family of five. The interior layout, quality, and the Uconnect system is fantastic. I only have two drawbacks up my truck. I wish I got the 3.55 gear rather than the 3.21 and the upgraded stereo system. I find the transmission wanting to down shift a little more than my liking. I think the 3.55 gear would be more suited for the type of topography I drive on.

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.
