Used 1997 Dodge RAM 1500 for Sale near Chicago, IL

very smooth ride coupled with good performance (for a truck) make it the best generation of the dodge ram in my opinion. premium leather interior and sound system make it a good riding truck and the small-block Magnum V8 make it a good work-horse. invest a grand or two into it and you've got a very formidable engine set-up. but it is a truck so don't expect it to go easy on the gas.

I love the fact it can go anywhere and through anything and still be a great everyday driver the comfort and ride of this truck is great along side with the saftry and dependability. This truck will not fail you

Performance is good on the truck. Braking is good, so far the handling is good as well and acceleration is good for a stock motor. Appearance is beautiful inside andout. Hasn't had any major repairs. It costs the same or less than any other full size truck. This truck is a blast to drive.

My Ram has taken me all over this great country, to both coasts and everywhere in between. It has a been a rock solid and dependable machine with impressive ergonomics and performance. The truck is now showing 190,000 on the odometer with a near-perfect record as regards reliability. It has never left me stranded. It still looks decent and runs strong. With proper maintenance I see no reason that this truck couldn't go another 100,000 miles or more. It is fun to drive and with great styling I would have no problems recommend owning one of these great trucks to anyone.

This monster may be big, but she hugs the road like no other. I have never been able to lock up the tires even on a rear ABS system. This Ram has 160000 miles and it still runs like new. There have only been a few minor repairs needed but overall this truck is a member of the family. There is nothing I dont like about my Dodge Ram.
