2002 Dodge Ram Pickup 1500 quad cab review from North America
"An excellent workhorse, and great looking ride"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I spilled coffee on the steering wheel, and my cruise control buttons stick, and don't work.
General comments?
This is the first full size I have ever owned, and I love it. Dodge did a great job on the re-design of the 2002's. People still turn their heads at me! Power is sufficient for me, I have the smaller V-8 of the two. The ergonomics are right on, and the ride quality is great. The truck is very quiet, and stable at high speeds. I love the four full doors, very helpful.I had heard bad things about Dodge trucks, and also checked this site before my purchase, and I must say I am completely satisfied so far with it. I had always been a GM truck guy,, but I decided to switch to Dodge because of their fresh looks and great designs. I also felt GM was starting to slip on their Quality.
