2012 Ram 1500 Quad Cab

Very, very nice rig

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 6,500

Pros: "Rides and drives great. Interior is premium."

Cons: "Keeping foot off throttle is difficult!"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"I bought this truck after having a mid-sized import truck. What an improvement! If you can keep your foot off the accelerator it gets respectable fuel mileage, but the Hemi wants to run. It pulls my 5,000 lbs trailer like its nopt there and the interior is nicer and more comfortable than my Acura. The premium stereo and Navi are definitely worth the price as well. There are also tons of accessories to make it your own as well."

Strong performer

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 6,000

Pros: "Style, engine, reliablility"

Cons: "Gas mileage, stock tires"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 9

"Bought this last Summer, it is a very nice truck for the price. My biggest complaints are gas mileage and slow drivers, maybe it is just from the big engine but I notice most cars driving slower in front of me all the time. It can get up to 20mpg, but if you drive it mostly city like I have to, it drops to about half that. The stock tires are awful, I had to spent about a grand within 5 months of buying just to get to work, but these are all pretty expected issues. It does tend to get a slight shudder around 40mph as the eco mode fights with the engine. The truck itself rides well going straight, it does lean a bit too much on curves, feels slightly unstable if you take a turn at higher speed. All in all this is a solid truck for a good price, if you have driven trucks in the past then this is not going to throw you any nasty curveballs."

Great Purchase

By Go Bears (CA) on Tuesday, February 19, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 20,000

Pros: "Rips up the streets."

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"Was able to purchase this truck new for $18,500.00 back in 2012. Considering the price and performance of the truck, I couldn't ask for a better buy. The interior is phenomenal. The steering and smoothness of the ride is unparalleled for a truck this size. Oh, and the 390 horsepower is pretty freaking sweet. The truck is light and accelerates so quickly. It gets up. When the hog is hungry, you've got to let her eat."

coin toss

By weathersh09 (SC) on Saturday, February 09, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 4,701

Pros: "RAMBOX"

Cons: "everything else"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 1

"Bought a 2012 tradesman with RAMBOX feature and 4.7L 2wd. Storage is great, plenty of power for daily driving, and fairly comfortable. Now..... the issues. Truck is plagued with electrical gremlins as well as underdash noises. Multiple occasions truck has no electrical power when trying to start, then minutes later will start normally. During shutdown, actuators for heating and air blend door systems can be heard cycling. No issue bulletins, and no help from dealers. My only hope at this point is that someone hits and totals it while its sitting still, so that Gap Insurance will pay off the loan. Buy a Toyota"

Outstanding

By Tj (MA) on Thursday, February 07, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 5,289

Pros: "Ride, looks, u connect"

Cons: "My friends keep asking to use it"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"The truck has the whole package. I looked into the f150 & tundra,the Chevy just didn't interest me. Tundra just felt cheap and clunky. the Ford was good. It came down that I liked the overall looks of the dodge inside and out. I've put this truck through some serious trails and ridden a lot of highway. This truck has handled everything above expectations"
