Author's Product Rating: 50 Recommended: Yes 
Pros: Power, towing capacity, comfort, intimidation factor, ability to self service if motivated and knowledgeable.
Cons: MPG when towing, price of 6 tires, large turning radius.
The Bottom Line: Highly recommended for the power, nice ride, and ample interior room.
Power performance and comfort; this is how I would sum up my 1995 Dodge Ram 3500. My RAM came equipped with the 8.0L V10, 3.53 gearing and the Laramie SLT quad cab and towing package. A full size bed and dually tires compliment the big rig grille and ... read more

Author's Product Rating: 20 Recommended: No 
Pros: It's transportation.
Cons: To many to mention.
The Bottom Line: It is a manufactured reject, they were obviously in a hurry when they made this truck. I would not recommend buying it unless you have time and money for repairs.
I purchased my 1995 Dodge Ram 1500 two years ago to pull a horse trailer, it was used when I purchased it.
This model came with 360 V8 magnum engine, automatic transmission, tilt steering, cruise control, driver side air bag, power windows ... read more

Author's Product Rating: 30 Recommended: Yes
Pros: Roominess, smooth ride, guages and dashboard driver friendly.
Cons: Fuel Economy, questionable reliability, lack of headrests in 3rd row.
The Bottom Line: This car has served us well with occasional service issues here and there. Still, after all these years, she has not left us stranded on the roadside (*knock *knock)
This car was a welcome addition to a growing family. At the time we were sold on the 5 star crash rating, side impact protection, etc.
We started to notice that about a year later (maybe more) that the rear seats (3rd row) did not have ... read more
