2001 Dodge Ram Pickup Ram 1500 Quad Cab Sport from North America - Comments

Hey... I am about to buy a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 sport and it's in great body and working condition... but this is going to be my first car and I am hoping I can get some extra advice... so any advice would be greatly appreciated... thank you.

I have a 2001 Dodge Ram Sport with a 318 with 67500 miles on it. I bought it brand new off the lot.

Only had 1 problem check engine light on due to the cracked evap lines. That's it. Some of you guys most be treating your trucks bad. I take care of my truck, but I take it on some mild off roading every couple of weeks and still don't have problems.

20000 miles on brake pads, what do you expect when you're trying to stop a 6500lb or more truck.

I have a 2001 1500 4x4 Dodge Ram. I pulled a load of dirt, a yrd in the back, and 2 yrds in a trialer, the next day I noticed my 4x4 light was out on and the 4x4 is out. Any suggestions?

I have a 2000 1500 4x4 with the 5.9 motor, love it. I have had no problems with it, but my proportioning valve for the ABS system is leaking at the bottom valve. It looks easy to change, but I am not sure what all is involved. 4 brake lines, an electrical line and one mounting bolt. Can I just bleed the brakes like an old skool car, or with the ABS will I need special tools?

I have a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 V8 Quad cab with 100,068 miles on it so I expect to have some issues. dash cracked a long time ago, fuel pump, water pump, belts, front end, hoses all the usual things have been fixed or replaced.

It gets horrible gas mileage, drags on the freeway but does the job I need it to do. I quit commuting with it a year ago.

Not very practical, could do better with say Chevy or even Toyota but I'm a Dodge lover what can I say?

I have a 2000 Dodge Ram 1500 Sport pick up truck. I too have had to replace the dash board, I was told it was a recall issue, but compared to most recalls this was nothing. Also have had to have the proportioning valve replaced this year as well as the front upper and lower ball joints, squealed like a pig. Next on the list is the steering box (column), I am use to having extra play in the wheel as my last vehicle, Jeep Cherokee, also had play but my mechanic thinks it necessary, so I will have it done. But other than that I have had no problems with my truck, drives like a champ every time! I absolutely love it and wouldn't trade it for all the tea in China.

I have a 2001 Dodge Ram with 67000 miles on it, and already going through the second transmission. I'm converting to 5 speed manual. I heard also that it will improve the gas mileage.
