    nice truck! I picked up an 03, 1500...5.9l, quad cab, long bed, 4x4, 180k miles for 4k. It's an awesome truck...a real truck. I got lucky with a solid engine and no rust. It has a major dent but I'm not worried about that at all. Gas mileage is 10-11mpg (horrible) but my daily is a tesla so it balances out lol. This will be my forever truck. I love these 2nd and 3rd gen Rams more than any truck out there.

      @jackson meads I think these Dodge trucks are great trucks because I am one the 2001 1500 V6 it's a work truck.. I think the only worth about $200.. and I think that trying to sell one to anyone to make them angry at you. My truck is reliable and gets by needs to go.. but they get the same gas mileage is a dump truck.. here in Kentucky where I live these trucks are everywhere parts are easy to find for them my Dash is all cracked up did the body of my truck is great. Considering it's almost 20 years old.. the way I see it I have to sacrifice paid a lot of money for gas.. if I had some cheap other car they got good mileage I have to be working on all the time. So it's cheaper to drive my Dodge Ram.😎

    I like how real your being. No body compares prices that way. And you start to realize most down payments on a new vehicle are over 2k. Good job on that, an nice truck. I grew up riding around in my buddies 1998 single cab red dodge Dakota R/T wanted that truck since I was 14. Bought it at 20. Was the love of my life! Now I have a 02 dodge Dakota R/T single black. Wouldn't trade it for the world.

    You should have went with the super 10 flowmaster. That’s what I have on mine and it sounds amazing. It is pretty loud though. Another great upgrade you could do is try to locate an instrument panel surround from a Laramie model. It’s a nice wood grain plastic that makes the interior a lot nicer.

      I got a 1998 dodge ram 5 speed manual has been taking abuse just fine. My co worker has a 97 Chevy auto. His is a 305. mine is the 318. I beat him every time in a straight line. AND he just told me he has a blown head gasket last week. I stayed neck and neck with an 04 Chevy Z71 on the highway, i was bone stock. I'd rather have a trans failure with a Dodge than a head gasket failure with a Chevy.

      @@MrFreshBosnian Now your just nit picking lol. I can write out a laundry list of problems with Chevys and my Dodge. They are both 20 plus years old. They both have lots of issues. Dodge just looks and definately sounds better. In my own opinion of course.
