Best looking truck I’ve owned inside and out

Awesome truck inside and out fills all my needs. Better gas mileage than the smaller truck I traded in and looks a lot better. Done

Such a great truck

This truck has everything you need and things that are just bonus. Laramie package is the way to go. Plenty of room in the crew cab and the truck bed. All the power you will ever need with the 5.7l Hemi. Made it our family vehicle. Wife just wishes that Dodge made an SUV, the same size as this truck.

Most powerful Pickup I've owned. Handles great.

5.7 hemi mated to 8 speed auto with manual option and 4x4. It's a Rocket. Quad cab leaves long legged people cramped. Very well designed. Camera is wonderful for hooking up trailer. Added nuff bars to ease entry and fender flairs to keep mud off the side of truck. Both custom fit and less than $300 for both on Amazon, expected to pay over $600. Fit was perfect and easy for DIY's. Be careful on your 1st passing a line of cars! I Love My Truck!

Smoothest and most comfortable diesel truck

I love this truck and if it wasn't for the need to tow 15k+ I would not be selling it. Very comfortable and quiet to drive.

First Truck

It's been a true pleasure. It's my first truck that I've ever owned. It really rides great, the V6 has plenty of power. Sound system really cranks out the tunes "Smokestack Lighting". Just a great truck.

Great truck!

I really like the truck it has plenty of power, super smooth ride, and extremely quite when it’s running for it being a diesel. I highly recommend this truck.

Ram Rebel 1500 not worth the money

Truck looks good and overall runs like a truck. Noisy and hard on gas. 2016 already have issues with rear taillights. LED’s burnt out setting off warnings on dash. Not covered under warranty. Cost to replace is $545.00 per light. Rip off from Dodge

Best value trucks out there

I own 2, 2016 single cab ecodiesel 2x4 trucks, both are being used to commute and tow trailers that are 7000 and 9000 lbs. They both have around 80k miles. Both average 27 mpg in town and freeway combined without towing, (one gets 31 mpg on freeway). Other than a factory recall on the fuel system, there have been zero problems with these trucks. They are worth their weight in gold to me and my business and would recommend to anyone. And, no, I do not work for Dodge.
