2007 dodge ram 3500 review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. New diesel engine leads refinements for 2007. introductionpickup trucks are america's ultimate raw material. Generic in concept, the lowly pickup truck can be configured in dozens, even hundreds of ways to suit any need and price point. The dodge ram heavy duty lineup is a perfect example. the heavy-duty rams have been with us for a few years now. Last redesigned for 2003, they aren't nearly as new as the latest from ford and general motors but benefit from some recent freshening. new for 2007: the ram heavy duty benefits from a new diesel engine and automatic transmission plus some minor refinements. the ram mega cab was launched as a 2006 model. Mega cab is built on the heavy duty chassis and comes fitted with the hemi engine. The extra-large mega cab was created by re-proportioning the relationship between cab and bed on a long wheelbase truck, adding 20 inches to the cab and shortening the bed to 6 feet, three inches. the result is acres of cab space, with six seats and plenty of head, shoulder, leg and hip room. The back seats are roomy and comfortable with reclining seatbacks, separate rear heating and air conditioning outlets, reading lights and a center armrest with cup holders, and available dvd entertainment. And there's space behind the back seats for cargo. Folding down the back seats reveals a huge cargo area (72. 2 cubic feet) with a flat load floor. The rear doors open big and wide, making it easy to load stuff inside. Covered bins are provided back there for storing gear and smaller items, and hooks are provided for hanging things. the mega cab ram rides and drives like a heavy duty pickup, regardless of 1500, 2500, or 3500 rating. It provides engine braking down long highway grades, thereby leaving the brakes cool, fade-free, and ready for stopping. The diesel's power and fuel economy make it an excellent choice for owners who tow heavy trailers long distances. the ram hd is equally at home serving solo contractors, landscape crews or families with heavy toys, and everyone in between. Despite a reputation for being the most truck-like, the heavy-duty rams are civilized and make trucking enjoyable. lineupthe 2007 dodge ram hd comes in three trim levels, st, slt and laramie, and three cabs (regular, quad, mega) with a range of engine choices, payloads and towing capacities. A trx4 (mild off-road) and power wagon (more severe off-road) model are offered only on 2500-series trucks. the mega cab 1500 is the light-duty configuration, but still has the heavy parts underneath and can haul payloads of up to 2,430 pounds and trailers of up to 8,750 pounds when equipped with 4. 10:1 axle gears. The mega cab 1500 comes with the 5. 7-liter hemi v8 and a five-speed automatic transmission, and prices range from slt 4x2 31,270) to the laramie 4x4 40,725). the 2500 25,905-$42,925) comes standard with the hemi v8 with six-speed manual or available five-speed automatic, optional with the cummins 6. 7-liter turbo diesel 7,095) and a six speed manual or six-speed automatic 1,575). The power wagon is $37,035-$39,990 depending on cab, and 4wd adds about $3,000 to any standard 2500-series. the 3500 30,515-$49,090) may appear pricey because the cummins diesel is often standard equipment, especially on dual rear wheel models. Options are limited to powertrain and chassis equipment, side curtain airbags, and a few cosmetic upgrades. slt, the standard trim on mega cabs, includes essentials stain-repellent cloth upholstery, an overhead console with mini trip computer and compass, speed control, power windows and door locks, keyless entry, and power mirrors. Options for slt include a power-sliding rear window, a bed liner, powered trailer tow mirrors, sun roof 850), power adjustable pedals 120), am/fm/6cd/mp3 with infinity speakers 950), cassette 100), navigation radio 2,545), sirius satellite radio 195), dvd rear-seat entertainment system 1,200), uconnect bluetooth hands-free wireless communication system 325), bucket seats 490), and 17-inch forged aluminum wheels 345). A part-time electric shift transfer case is available on 4wd models. laramie models add leather upholstery, dual-zone climate control, steering-wheel-mounted audio controls, heated front seats, security alarm, auto-dimming rearview mirror, and sentry key engine immobilizer. From the front, a more refined crosshair grille with strong, full-chrome collar remains instantly recognizable as a strong dodge ram signature. With the front-end restyled last year and a dual-rear wheel option added after introduction, the tail now gets attention with new taillight styling similar to the dodge durango and dakota, and jeep liberty. from the side, the mega cab makes an even more dramatic impression. Very wide rear doors are unique to the immense mega cab, with a very large proportion of window glass to door. The dark glass rear doors and wide pillar suggest a limousine, and interior volume reinforces the impression. Behind this huge cab, the bed looks small, but it remains significantly large: 6 feet, 3 inches in length and 51 inches wide between the wheel wells. The mega cab's interior space is nearly identical to that of a quad cab with the exception of rear legroom. The mega cab adds some 22 inches of cab length to the already-wide interior, taking second-row spaciousness beyond any previous production pickup. The mega cab's rear seats offer 44. 2 inches of legroom, compared with 36. 7 for a quad cab. And there is room for the rear seats to recline, tilting up to 37-degrees for added comfort. The rear seats also have their own separate rear air conditioning and heat outlets, reading lights and a center armrest with cup holders. dvd entertainment for rear seat passengers is available, with wireless headsets and integrated game ports. Behind the passengers is a power sliding rear window for flow-through ventilation. Because of the added length of the second-row seating area, the air bag system had to be redesigned with larger side curtain air bags. Each side air bag has its own impact sensor in order to trigger the air bag on the side where impact occurs. from the driver's seat, the view is of a wide center stack with large knobs and buttons, precisely finished with consistent angles and cut lines throughout. The instrument panel cluster is located under a prominent dash brow to reduce glare and improve visibility of six white-faced gauges, the latter numbered on diesel-engine models. Rectangular, slat-type air vents close flush. there is a marked distinction between trim levels. In st trim, the dash is textured plastic with synthetic-look inserts on the slt. The laramie package makes extensive use of wood trim inside, with less plastic, for a more distinctive appearance. the seats are generously padded and proved to be comfortable, especially the six-way driver's seat in the laramie, which can be shifted around as any particular position becomes tiresome on long trips. The leather upholstery adds a rich appearance to the interior of laramie models. With the optional front bucket seats, a new center console extends from the dashboard. Even those of us used to operating domestic pickups and tow vehicles are aware of the ram's imposing size and stance. Inside the cabin, it is a long reach to hand something across the console to a passenger, and there would be no hope of leaning across to open the passenger door, or grab something from the opposite door pocket. Interior door handles are large and heavily built, consistent with the large size of the ram doors. the cabin is loaded with nicely sized trays, slots and pockets. It seemed there was always a safe place to put something down, yet keep it within easy reach. The armrest opens in two parts and center console is big enough for a laptop, and is designed with fold-down dividers. the optional 5. 8-inch navigation screen is surrounded by buttons and knobs; perhaps a bit on the small side but located up high for good viewing. With the standard front bench seat, a very wide center console flips up to allow makeshift center seating. There is additional storage unde.

1998 dodge ram pickup 2500 review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. With this year's introduction of a 4-door extended-cab pickup truck, dodge has fired yet another shot across the bow of ford, chevy and gmc, which offer only three doors on their extended-cabs. The new dodge quad cab, as it is called, is an option on all 1500 and 2500 extended cab trucks and it's standard on the big 3500 models. that one major product advantage is backed up by a host of other significant changes for 1998 from one end of the ram family to the other. Interiors have been given a thorough makeover for the new year. Like all of the domestic pickups, the dodge ram is available in three load ratings: 1500, 2500, and 3500. Three engines are available: a 3. 9-liter v6, 5. 2-liter v8, 5. 9-liter v8 engines, 8. 0-liter v10 and a cummins 5. 9-liter inline 6-cylinder diesel. Every engine comes with a choice of 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission. Output from the 5. 2-liter v8 has been raised from 220 to 230 horsepower and it earns an epa city/highway rating of 14/19 mpg when fitted with the 5-speed manual and two-wheel drive. Power from the 5. 9-liter v8 has been increased from 235 to 245 horsepower, with a jump in torque to 335 pound-feet; a two-wheel-drive automatic gets 13/17 mpg. the cummins turbodiesel puts out 215 horsepower and 440 pound-feet of trailer-pulling torque. The v10 gasoline engine is rated at 300 tire-smoking horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque. The 3. 9-liter v6 is unchanged with 175 horsepower and 225 pound-feet of torque and fuel economy ratings of 15/19. standard, club cab and quad cab bodies are available in lt, laramie slt, and sst trim levels. Regular-length beds are 6 1/2 feet long, optional long beds are 8 feet long. improvements for 1998 include a new keyless remote entry system, an upgraded base sound system, a new cassette and cd sound system option, leather seat availability on slt versions, and a new sport plus package with 17-inch wheels and tires, suspension upgrades and 5. 9-liter v8 with sport exhausts. A number of under-the-skin upgrades have been made, including electrocoated frame paint, and new exterior and new interior colors are available. dodge says the new quad cab design is as strong as a conventional pickup body shell even though it does not have a pillar between the doors. To improve structural rigidity, dodge engineers designed a beam that runs crossways under the truck and strengthened the a and c pillars. The absence of a b-pillar makes it much easier to get in or out of the rear seat; it also makes it much easier to stick something behind the front seats. This includes a new steering wheel design, a new set of reduced-force air bags, with a lockout for the passenger bag, a gaping storage hole, an extra power point, and new cupholders that will handle anything. in order to get rid of a potentially messy array of dangling seat belts in the wide-open quad cab doorway, the designers have integrated the front seat belts into the seats themselves on all rams. The console has also been redesigned. The front seat in all rams is divided 40/20/40, with a huge fold-down central section that doubles as armrest and writing table. There's a substantial storage box inside the armrest portion with divided spaces for coins, cassettes, maps or even a laptop computer. the rear seat in the quad cab is the same seat used in the conventional extended cab version of the truck. It's handy for children, pets and petite adults, but it is not comfortable for adults on long trips. The rear seat is fitted with two shoulder belts and one lap belt. Driving it made us think of the old muscle car drag racing days on woodward avenue in detroit. It's also a really flexible, driveable combination in off-road situations, much more so than the automatic. Rear suspension is a conventional live axle with leaf springs designed to carry heavy loads. We found the suspension delightfully smooth and supple on the street, aided by those big fat goodyear rt/s tires. But the body is so high off the ground that some passengers--particularly females--had a great deal of entry/exit difficulty even with a grab bar on the a-pillar. one thing we didn't like about the ram's dynamics last year was the steering, which was light enough and quick enough, but had an enormous dead space on center, and seemed to require constant left-right adjustments to stay straight ahead. That has been fixed this year with a new steering gear setup and new steering geometry, and the feel of the truck is much more precise than earlier models. braking, with discs in front, drums in rear, was exemplary. The ram stops quickly with superb straightline stability. Power Locks✔ Power Windows✔ Power Mirrors✔ Cruise Control✔ Air Conditioning✔ Aluminum Wheels✔ Sport Package✔ Alloy Wheels
