Great vehicle for driving the back woods

Straight line performance is fine. However, it shines when driven on the track.
The only thing that I dislike about my vehicle is that it eats water pumps. I love the power my vehicle has. I love how it gets me from point a to point b. I feel safe while driving my vehicle.

Amazing ride, looks great, hauls like a champ.
I drive a RAM power wagon & it is the best truck I have ever driven. It hauls like a champ. It has a smooth ride. Fuel economy is terrible but to be expected from that beastly Hemi engine, which I love. Plus it stands out in a crowd & you can hear it coming from a mile away.

Best truck I have ever owned.
My vehicle has been the most dependable truck I have ever owned it's never let me down. Gets great gas mileage. It rides down the road very smooth. It also tows great you cannot even tell your pulling a trailer behind you. I also love the seats they are heated and cooled and I do not think I'll ever own one that does not have that opinion it kind of spoiled me in a way.

It is a diesel, and I love it!
The very first that I love about my truck is that it is a diesel. It has great gas mileage for pulling our camper, which is one thing we do often. It has great interior color and material. And it has lots of storage for all of our items. It is a great truck, and I would recommend to everyone to go get yourself a ram.

Incredible Diesel performance with good fuel economy and tough capabilities
I have the Outdoorsman trim/model. The 6.7 Diesel has incredible power but is also surprisingly fuel efficient given the specs, it was a really nice surprise. The ride quality is a little bit stiff, you definitely feel every bump, but once you load it up with a camper or a big load of gravel things really smooth out. This thing is really meant for working hard. No problems with it at all, very happy with the purchase.

2013 ram 2500, white exterior, grey interior.
I like the 2013 ram 2500 because it turns sharper than ford or Chevy. It also rides very smoothly. The seats are very comfortable. The crew cab has more legroom than the front seat, so my kids love riding in it as well. I have to park outside because it will not fit in my garage, but the exterior holds up very well to hail, which we get often where I live.

The truck sits way to high. Its at factory height but it's still way too high.
The dealerships are terrible to work with on anything from payments to repairs would rather buy from a private party for the rest of my life then buy a new car again. I can't stand the recalls that I seem to get on a regular basis. The costumer service is rude and unhelpful. The dealerships call at least once a week wanting to sell me a new car but will not stop calling me. Never have been happy with the service I have gotten from dealerships.

Comfortable large seating area inside the cab.
Fairly comfortable inside large seats easy to adjust. It has been mechanically reliable so far. The prndl knob is awkward to use and it is easy to forget to put in park. Have had problems with the radio. There have been a lot of recalls. I had a problem with the back window leaking.
accountCircle Nina V
Great buy, very reliable and most dependable vehicle I own.
It is a great vehicle it is lasted us many years without fail. We've been through a lot with the vehicle and it is always kept running it is got over 150,000 in mileage and is still very reliable. The only thing I really struggle with is the wiring under the seat can be a bit sensitive. It is got decent gas mileage and if you take better care of it I am sure it will be an even better vehicle for you.

2013 ram 2500 big horn mega cab.
The 2013 ram 2500 mega cab is a very comfortable vehicle. Has a lot of space for driver and all passengers. I have not had a single problem with my truck. The only complaint I have is when I added new tires and rims and tire pressure light stays on and a special device is needed to turn it off.
accountCircle Patrick S on March 10, 2021
It is dependable and fun to drive.
Dependability, looks and accessories. I don't like that the driver door panel and the passenger seat have rattles.

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Heather N.

It is a 6.7 Diesel with 757 modified horsepower, it also has four wheel drive, leather interior, eight foot bed, and an alpine stereo, it holds all 3 of my children in car seat comfortably, it is also automatic so hauling trailers is easy especially in traffic.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Heather N.

I have no cons about this vehicle it really is the perfect all around truck for regular commute or truck shows or work. It does everything you need it to do. Maybe the only thing is if diesel could be a little cheaper.
