What Owners are Saying About the 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 Regular Cab

"Love my truck"

"I've been told several times I need to get a newer truck because this one is so "old". I refuse! Standard transmission, diesel and the ONLY trouble I've ever had with it is the 4wd transfer case giving out. This transfer case is extremely light weight for the torque the back end has. I've already gone through 2 cases and it's ready for a third. I use mine to pull a 3-horse live-in trailer on dirt roads into the mountains, so I do use the 4wd often. Until this truck gives out completely, I will not replace it with a higher priced, inferior model. I don't care how old it gets."

"Well-maintained great truck"

"Well-maintained great truck. I bought it with 170,000 miles. Took my son racing all over the country. And have replaced the water pump. Just a very bulletproof truck"

"Bought new changed oil and fluids on regular basis"

"Bought new changed the oil and fluids on a regular basis, I've driven it 240,000 plus miles and still driving it ever day, long bed 4x4 automatic 4 door two tone blue over silver. 2019 body has holes rusting through. this truck was never garaged always in the weather, rarely washed, maybe once a year. The driver seat on outer edge wore off the foam and cloth, chrome covering on bumper wrinkled up for some reason(looks bad) a lot of rust spots. With all of this said: I would today go start up my truck and drive it 2000 miles that is more than half way across the United States and not hesitate. I still don't believe it would let me down. It has been a great truck. I have a hard time looking at another, they are so high priced. I could buy a rental home for less, & it will go up in value. My ole truck is still running, so I'm driving it."

2004 Dodge Ram 1500 Regular Cab Depreciation

Annual Depreciation is an estimation of what your vehicle's value might be over time based on an average of similar vehicles. Estimations are calculated by comparing Kelley Blue Book Private Party Values of vehicles similar to yours over time, as well as forecasts from Manheim Auction data comparing current and projected auction values against current Kelley Blue Book Private Party and Trade-In Values. This is not a guarantee of actual depreciation. Local weather conditions, market factors and driver performance will also impact your vehicle's actual depreciation.
