i needed basically a car to haul hay. More than 2 bales lol. The warlock came with a smal 3.6 cylinder keeping me at about 20 mpg, and the 4wd is just dream in the snow!! Maintenance is not very pricey at all and i have had no real issues at all with the truck!! I am so happy to have left the ford focus in the dust to trade up to this pickup. Fits a family with a couple of horses perfect!!
Critical Review
READ THIS IF YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT BUYING A RAM! I recommend that people seriously think twice about buying the 2020 RAM Rebel. I've owed the truck for 3-weeks and the problems began in the first week. I totally regret purchasing this truck and lose sleep at night worrying about what's going to go wrong next. RAM USA customer service is some of the worst I've experienced. They send templated emails responses and close cases without actually resolving anything. From my experience, they deal with these issues by ignoring them. Things that have gone wrong so far: 1. UConnect Screen (which controls 90% of truck functionality) freeze-up unrecoverable. RAM tech service recommends disconnecting the battery for 30 minutes...that's their idea of a fix...never mind impossible driving down the highway. 2. UConnect Screen fade. Sometimes the screen fades to the point that items are unreadable. Again, RAM has 90% of the trucks functionality control through this screen...so this is a big deal. 2. Rain sensing wipers nonfunctioning. I don't think these ever worked. Failure out of the gate. 3. Seat heaters malfunction. The passenger seat heater stopped working in first week. 4. Remote start malfunction. Truck fails to start. I feel like I'm betting in Las Vegas every time I try remote start. Will it work? Will it not work? 5. Sirius Guardian App malfunction. App crashes. Requests made on App don't happen. I've had three remote start failures so far. 6. Phone controls malfunction. Could not hang up phone with steering wheel controls. Functionality froze. Had to pull over to resolve. Uconnect did not fix itself until truck was restarted. The picture below is of the rain sensing wipers not working. My $50,000 mistake. Hopefully others can avoid such a situation.

Electronics have major glitches. Half my gauge cluster went out. Stellantis customer service is a joke. I bought it new 3 months ago and have been without half my gauge cluster for a month. Sometimes certain things on the 14" screen don't come up. Had issues with the HUD going dim. Issues with the vehicle not starting, not going into gear, shifting hard. Probably going to sue for lemon law violation soon. Don't buy a Ram!!!
Great value and styling compared to its foes. Pulls harder than a tractor!
Very roomy and comfortable
Such a great and capable truck! From hauling hay and ride comfort and drivability, there's no lack of power or pure grunt. The straight-Six twin turbo has plenty of power. I purchased new and the transmission would shift hard from Auto-start/stop which was initially a concern, but it has worked out and is now smooth after 6k miles. Cons -Screen doesn't display when starting the vehicle in below freezing temperatures until the truck cabin warms up. I would like the lane centering to be improved. The steering wheel vibrates if you are close to one side or the other, would like it to keep you centered. This doesn't deter my love of this truck. Styling, comfort, power, I love it!
I have had my truck for 3 years. I bought it used with very low miles. I was very happy to find one with the 3.92 gearing for higher towing capacity. Over all I have had minimal issues. One electrical problem which was solved by making sure all fuses and relays were properly seated. I tow a 33ft Travel trailer weighing ~7800lbs. The hitch weight is higher than I would like but not over the trucks limit. It stays straight even when pushed by tractor trailers. The engine never feels under powered. When not towing it handles more like a car than a truck. It does have an intermittent skip when starting which is my only issue.
Easy to modify for custom use Runs great rides great I’ve had lots of trucks in 45 years of construction work This one is my favorite
Fuel pump, exhaust filter, battery, and alternator all went out in the first 4 years. Spent lots of time with no vehicle waiting on parts and no loaner from dealership.
I’ve had nothing but problems with the truck. Truck has driven extremely rough with lots of cabin vibration and it is LOUD inside. I was told the tires could have flat spots and the build quality was poor. Worse yet the truck suddenly stopped on its own at 75mph on the freeway with all kinds of red alerts on the dash. Very scary and it has occurred more than once so there is clearly an underlying issue. Pretty unhappy overall. Stellantis has not responded to my open BBB complaint and their customer care team provided no help in response to opening a ticket. I’m now spending time contacting an attorney to return the vehicle under the lemon law. Don’t make the same mistake I did.

Truck was listed and pictured as described. Price was great and I love the features. Thanks to KBB for helping find this great ride!
Absolutely comfortable
Expensive
The 3.0 Twin Turbo Hurricane Inline 6 is no slouch. I had a hard time letting go of my HEMI 5.7, but this new driveline is smooth and provides equivalent power. And in my opinion, no other truck compares to the comfort and ride quality offered in the RAM 1500.
