2001 Dodge Ram Pickup 2500 review from North America
"Extremely powerful"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
This truck is an absolute beast at anything.
My buddy has a 2003 Ford Powerstroke, that thing is a total joke. I'm scared to death riding to Walmart in the damn thing, it's so unreliable with NO power to brag about at all. It's pretty sad my 6 pistons will beat all 8 of his at everything.
My truck will pull very heavy trailers up the rocky mountains with no idea that there is anything behind them.
Me and my friend had a pull off with his 6.0 Ford and I was laughing the whole time dragging his junker down the street. All my buddies hate dodges, and all drive Powerstokes, but now they ALL respect the Cummins, and no one says a word about racing me or having a pull off with their 7.3 or 6.0, I have beat all of them and know they don't say a word.
Long live the Cummins, and by the way my truck has never had to go see a mechanic, and ALL my buddies know the shop owners by heart now.
