2005 Dodge Ram 1500 Rumble Bee

Summary:
I bought my Rumble Bee in August 2005 and it has been a GREAT truck. Looks awesome, very few quality issues to speak of, and responds very well to cosmetic/performance modifications. Truck hauls tail with HEMI V8 combined with AeroTurbine exhaust, K&N and Superchips Flashpaq tuner.

Strengths:
Huge Power and Torque for a pickup - surprises people!, lots of interior room, auto-dimming mirror nice, sporty white-faced gauges, looks great with ground effects/billet grille/fog lights, 20" wheels are a nice feature

Weaknesses:
Stereo doesn't sound that great for being an Infinity system, Steering wheel leather started peeling at 23000 miles and was replaced under warranty, wish it had better seating surfaces, dash looks kinda plain, even with yellow center stack. All in all, not too much to complain about

2003 Dodge Ram Slt '03 Reg Cab

Summary:
This truck is sharp, fast and eats gas like you wouldn't believe. If you want a truck for function, this is THE TRUCK! If you want it for transportation then don't buy this truck. Mine has a Hemi, it's a performance vehicle. The worst MPG I have ever gotten out of is 15MPG and on the highway, if you dare to drive this slow, at 68 miles per hour it get 19+MPG. You go 75 it'll get about 16MPG. For some of you the MPG may not sound bad but I drive over 30000 miles a year and it gets costly. After 90,000 miles I had to replace a lock actuator $200 and front brakes. After 120,000 miles It still has orig. rear brakes and still 1+ years of life left. The original set of tires lasted 60,000 miles and at 110,000 got my 3rd set of tires. This truck has a VERY VERY sharp turnig radius. It handles and performs like a sports car.
And due to my wife, we have had 2 Ford Explorer's JUNK JUNK JUNK.... DO NOT BUY THIS CAR!!!

Strengths:
It's the number 1 truck out there for function with power, handling, comfort, interior room, and the best looking thing out there. If your budget can handle the gas, get this truck!!!!!!!!!

Weaknesses:
Eats gas, Replaced lock actuator.
