Performs well towing the boat, gets around good in the snow, hauls what I need it to, crazy amount of interior space.  

Downside is that it's on a 3/4-ton chassis and rides like a cement truck, terrible fuel economy...averaging about 11-12 MPG mostly interstate to/from work.

Pros — Interior space
Cons — Poor fuel economy

Pros — overall performance is outstanding.
Cons — There isn't any

I love my Truck. Trucks are for Girls Anyhow. It is King Cab Hemi 4x4 and I couldn't have asked for a better truck. I absolutley have no complaints. And let me tell you it can run. Actually it floats. It is roomy and has lots of places to keep your vehicle organized. And it has never been washed by a brush. I go to brushless only. I don't want to scratch the black paint with the sparkle flecks in it. This truck is my baby.

Pros — IT CAN RUN and HAUL
Cons — THERE ARE NO NEGATIVES ABOUT THIS TRUCK

Could have more power.  I wanted the HEMI.  But theres ways to fix that!   I love the stance, the inside of the cab is big and comfortable.  I love the TRX badge on the rear quarter panels.  I got the truck Ive always wanted.  Minus the HEMI.  I cant wait to start making upgrades and add ons to it.

Pros — Its a Dodge.  Great power, looks and tough.
Cons — No Hemi

11 MPG's, What was I thinking! This truck has a lot of power and the ride is quite comfy  for a big truck. Plenty of room in the back for passengers and even more room for haulin. I would definatly recommend this truck to everyone not concerned about saving money at the pump.

Pros — Spacious, lots of power
Cons — gas gusler

The 5.7 Liter Hemi has 345 horsepower, it can be a little bit better being responsive. Braking is average with disc breaks all around, but only rear wheel Anti-lock Braking System. Handling is very responsive.  The Dodge Chassis has be boxed and hydro formed for durability. The Patriot Blue Pearl exterior paint makes a great color and gives a midnight blue look at night. With a two-tone gray interior, the cabin is very pleasing to the eye. Gas mileage is decent for a truck with 4 wheel drive (currently 13.5 city and about 20 on the highway).  Overall a great car. 4 Stars

Pros — 20 inch rims... great handling response, and decent higway mileage. Lifetime Powertrain Warranty
Cons — Throttle response is a little delayed, I need to install running boards to get in easier.

Traded 02 for the 08 and discovered less interior room at 6'4" I need space, still more than Chevy or Ford...,

Pros — Easy to use layout
Cons — really nothing
