2001 Dodge Ram 1500 Base Model Club Cab 4x2 review from North America
"Best truck I have ever owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Water pump at 79k miles.
Extremely mild oxidization beginning on passenger side bed rail (Notorious for this generation).
General comments?
This vehicle is excellent. It has plenty of power around town, and cruises well on the freeway.
Uphill the transmission sometime won't take a hint and down shift, but this can be alleviated by a quick blip of the overdrive switch.
