RAM 1500 2017 The best:Transmission. Of all the brands I’ve owned, this 8HP70, shifts exactly where I would manually shift if I had to. Even without tow/haul mode, I like the way it downshifts when braking.The worst:Electronics in the steering wheel stopped working properly at less than 3 years old.
RAM 1500 2006 SLTThe best:it has been a very very reliable truck for me through all the abuse and neglect of previous owners and it has never once left me stranded. it is a very fun and dependable truck and if you are ever thinking about purchasing one i say go for it a ram 1500 4.7 is the best band for your buck you are looking for a decent reliable work truck and play toy to drift around in the rain or play in the mud!!The worst:One thing i can say bad about the ram 4.7 is it will get hot under heavy abuse sometimes and these motors do not like heat at all heat will always cause the end of these engines0
RAM 1500 2013 4dr/5.7/The best:The ride is comfortable and gas mileage is good on the highway.The worst:Alot of electrical problems. Passenger side headlight keeps going out melting wiring plug, but it's not the bulb. Wipers will not stop until I pull fuse. Trailer plug doesn't work sometimes.1

RAM 1500 2005 4x4 slt single cab long bed 4.7 magnumThe best:Runs like a champ after some tlc super simple to work on. I did my first ever motor replacement on this thing and there isn't a single thing im not willing to fixThe worst:10.4 mpg and low tow capacity1

RAM 1500 2018 5.7 L HEMIThe best:I've had the truck since 55,000 miles, now I'm at 110,000 miles, and haven't had any issues.The worst:The ticking noise when driving.0
RAM 1500 2025 BighornThe best:Build quality is good, quiet and smooth driving. Touch screen tech (radio) is easy to use.The worst:3.6L V6 engine gets a check engine light due to a software bug -something to do with new electrical wiring for model year. They have a software update to fix with but currently only fixes 98% of the time. So lucky me - I have to wait for another round of software patches to be developed. Truck runs great, just annoying to have a engine light on every so often.

RAM 1500 2010 v8 5.7The best:great truck to look at. its been great for the most part. never had any transmission problems. most components to change are doable being a youtube mechanic.The worst:I've had to change out the engine at 186,000 miles. I've had to get lifter repairs again after 28,000 miles after changing the motor. has issues with the exhaust manifold and making it too much noise and rattle. gas milage also isn't great.
RAM 1500 2016 RamThe best:Looks goodThe worst:I havent been able to drive it like i want its broken0
RAM 1500 2002 4.7L v8The best:This truck has been through hell and back! It has towed a lot more than what the stats have listed. It has been a vacation vehicle as well as a daily work truck. And it has survived 5 kids growing up thanks to the entertainment/sound system that my 12 year old put together on a strict budget. Just to give you an idea as to how old it is, it has an original PS1 and a VCR in it! I have kept up with all the repairs needed along the way. It is very easy to work on.The worst:There are only 2 complaints about the truck. First the amount of leg room in the back seats. As the kids got older, we had to shoe horn the older ones in. And they were over 6'5". 2nd, of course I have to mention the TIPM. The whole fuse box is very open to the elements, so it has finally been destroyed by corrosion and oxidation everywhere! And what I don't understand is why Dodge put a recall out on this exact TIPM, but only for 2 of the high end vehicles like the Jeep Grand Cherokee. L0

RAM 1500 2014 Pickup/5.7 HimiThe best:The 2014 Ram 1500 is often regarded as a strong contender in the full-size pickup truck market for its time, offering a mix of innovation, performance, and comfort. Below are its best and worst attributes:
The Best Features:
1. Fuel Efficiency:
• The availability of the 3.0L EcoDiesel V6 engine was a game-changer, delivering up to 28 mpg on the highway. This made the Ram 1500 the most fuel-efficient full-size pickup of its era.
2. Smooth Ride:
• The Ram 1500 featured a class-exclusive coil spring rear suspension, which provided a smoother ride compared to its leaf-spring competitors.
3. Interior Quality:
• The 2014 model offered a well-designed and comfortable interior, especially in higher trims like Laramie. High-quality materials and user-friendly technology, including the Uconnect infotainment system, made it feel upscale.
4. Towing Capacity:
• Properly equipped, the Ram 1500 could tow up to 10,450 pounds, making it a strong performer for its class.
5. Customization:
• Available in multiple configurations, including three cab styles (Regular, Quad, Crew) and various trims (Tradesman, Express, SLT, Sport, Laramie, and more).
The worst:The Worst Features:
1. Reliability Concerns:
• Some owners reported issues with the 8-speed automatic transmission, including rough shifting. There were also complaints about electronic problems and air suspension failures.
2. Limited Bed Options:
• While the interior was spacious, some competitors offered better bed configurations and storage solutions.
3. Price with Features:
• Higher trims with premium features like the air suspension and EcoDiesel engine came with steep price tags, potentially making them less competitive.
4. EcoDiesel Issues:
• While the EcoDiesel engine was praised for its efficiency, it also faced some issues with emissions systems and required DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid), which added to maintenance costs.
5. Payload Capacity:
• The Ram 1500 lagged behind competitors like the Ford F-150 in terms of maximum payload capacity, which might be a concern for some users.
RAM 1500 2014 Express Reg Cab 5.7The best:What's not to like about a regular cab with a 5.7??The worst:The small factory stereo it comes with, swapped it out 2 weeks after getting it. SOO now there's nothing i don't like about it!1
RAM 1500 2017 Lone Star Crew Cab 5.7The best:The Body style, compared to other trucks it seems more aerodynamic rather than boxie in the front like some others out there. The pure raw power the 5.7 puts out is great right out the box.The worst:All the areas that can potentially let water in, The air pressure vents, 3rd brake light sunroof drains. Although all fixable its still a pain in the but if you don't catch it on time.1

RAM 1500 2017 The best:Has plenty of power but rides very smooth on the highway I've been getting around 25 miles to the gallon of gas as well around town about 18 miles per gallonThe worst:The owners manual that cam with my truck seems to have information on every possible ram truck made diesel gas 4wdr or 2wdr and the diagrams are tiny and unreadable
