Miles Overview
This is the second-generation Ram, Dodge's full-size pickup that brought a bold, big-rig look to the segment. Inside, the cab is roomy for a truck of the era, with a tall seating position and simple, durable controls that are easy to use with work gloves on. You can get it as a regular cab, extended cab, or four-door, with bed lengths from six and a half to eight feet, so there's a Ram for most jobs. This Ram is the base work truck trim, so you give up the interior niceties and stronger V8 of the Laramie but save money and get a simpler, tougher truck. The 5.9L I6 pairs with a four-speed automatic or five-speed manual and rear-wheel drive, giving you solid low-end torque for towing without the fuel penalty of the V8s. Expect a firm, truck-like ride from the leaf-spring rear suspension, which is the trade-off for the Ram's impressive payload and towing capacity.
