When it comes to heavy hauling, the domestic pickup fleet still has a lock on torque and towing ability, not to mention out-and-out ruggedness. If you're looking for a big truck with abilities equal to its imposing good looks, the Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 are just the ticket. For 2007, Dodge's big Ram continues with its signature big-rig front, gains more interior room with the addition of the Mega Cab model and adds power with the availability of the new Cummins Turbo Diesel engine. Of course, if diesel isn't your thing, the standard HEMI engine delivers more than enough power, and bragging rights, for most customers.
Want a pickup that's loaded with personality? The Rams are as big, bold and in-your-face as the people who like driving them. With a standard 345-horsepower HEMI V8, the Ram 2500 is one of the most powerful pickups in its class. When equipped with the Cummins Turbo Diesel, the Ram can tow up to 16,300 pounds.
The Ram is a big truck designed for heavy-duty work. If you like the idea of a big truck, but commute through the suburbs on a daily basis, you may want to try something a bit smaller, such as the V8-powered Dakota.
For 2007, a new 6.7-liter Cummins Turbo Diesel and six-speed automatic transmission make their debut. The Cummins Turbo Diesel is cleaner and quieter than the previous engine, and provides a whopping 650 pound-feet of torque.
Driving Impressions With improved ride and handling qualities and more sedan-like interiors, today's three-quarter and full-ton pickup trucks are more livable than ever. Our Dodge Ram 3500 Mega Cab Laramie test vehiclewell...
equipped with a big Cummins Turbo Diesel engine, six-speed automatic transmission and optional dual rear wheelswas no exception.Folding Armrest/Storage Unit
A wide folding armrest/storage unit is big enough to hold a laptop and comes complete with a 12-volt outlet.
New Interior
The Ram's new interior is every bit as plush as the new Ford F150, but is attached to a much more powerful platform.
The Ram's interior is clean and highly functional. The lines on the dash and door panels are straight and crisp, and the plastics used in their construction feel sturdy without appearing cheap. Seat comfort is excellent, as is interior storage. Unfortunately, the Quad Cab model features a rear bench seat that feels a bit upright and does not offer as much legroom as its competitors from Ford, Chevy and Nissan. Those seeking a big back seat need only look to the Mega Cab model.
Exterior
The aggressively-designed Ram exterior conveys a brutish, muscular appearance backed up by 17-inch wheels, towering ground clearance and a grille so big it needs its own ZIP Code. In dual-wheel form, the Ram 3500 almost looks like an 18-wheeler.
Both the Ram 2500 and 3500 ST versions come with a 5.7-liter V8, six-speed manual transmission, air conditioning, AM/FM stereo with CD, four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes (ABS), 17-inch wheels, rear-bumper with step, keyless entry, vinyl 40/20/40 split bench seat and a tilt steering wheel.
Depending on trim, the options list is huge. The Ram can be ordered in 2500 or 3500 models with Regular, Quad or Mega Cabs, two- or four-wheel drive, two automatic transmissions (a four- and six-speed) and a choice of gasoline V8 or Cummins Turbo Diesel engines. Along the way, you can add leather seats, a GPS navigation radio, Infinity sound system, off-road package, trailer package, chrome wheels, power-adjustable pedals, limited-slip differential, power folding mirrors, fog lights, front side-impact airbags and a 34-gallon fuel tank.

"If you're looking for a truck, you definitely can't go wrong with a RAM! I have a 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 Laramie. The truck looks amazing. I love the interior design and flow. I have the infinity sound system so the stereo is awesome too! I have owned this truck since it was brand new and I will drive it until it dies. I now have 126,360 miles on it and have had only one thing go wrong. The anti-rattle clips on the front brakes needed to be replaced which was only $11.99! This has been a great truck for me and I will never buy anything other than a RAM. The HEMI in this truck is a show stopper. I pull a 28' camper and a ski boat all summer, every summer ever since I bought it and it still pulls like it did when it was new. The four wheel drive is great. I do a lot of muddin and I have only gotten stuck one time, when my tires had no meat on them. The reason I rated the comfort and convenience an 8 was because the truck doesn't take bumps too lightly, but the because of the 4x4 which is expected. Here in the coming years I will be buying another Dodge Ram and retiring my 2006 to my son. Hope this was helpful."

"This is my third Dodge truck. I was a glutton for punishment as my '98 truck's transmission scattered for no reason right after it was out of warranty, got it repaired and bought a new '02, which needed a new computer board after 2 months. When I saw the Hemi Sport, I had to have it! I'm no stranger to performance vehicles, and this peach of a truck won my heart over the Corvette I had and my Shelby 350 Mustang. It hauls like a truck, performs like a sports car and rides like a luxury vehicle. I have had him for 9 years, and will keep him forever. I don't have any desire for a new one, they aren't nearly as awesome looking anyway!"

"I love my dodge. The standard is tough and durable, this vehicle rides very well and for a truck is quite comfortable. The mileage is some-what low even for a standard at 16 and 21. My only real complaint is that once the truck backed-fired and that blew a hole in the PLASTIC Plenum (Intake manifold) and it took 9 months to get a replacement part through the dealer and I lost the use of the truck for that time. Please go back to an aluminum or metal one. After this happened to me I found out in searching the web that this was an issue and also over-heating (Mostly in southern states) caused the plenum to fail through distortion. Fix this and you have an excellent truck!"

"Bought my pickup brand new in 2007. We live on a small farm, my pickup has hauled horses, cows, pigs, dogs, hay, tractors and a Jeep Cherokee. It has worked phenomenal through mud, snow, rain, dirt! Recently took a trip to Black Hills and she climbed through the hills at 17 MPG! We pulled the Jeep Cherokee on a flatbed 2000 miles and she ran 15 mpg! And that was when she barely had 25,000 miles. I bet know the mileage would be much better as diesels only improve with age! I would reccommend to anyone who needs a hardworking reliable pickup!!"
