2001 Dodge RAM 2500 Reviews, Pricing & Specs

Great Truck! Some issues but what vehicle does not have issues. Love this truck since the day I purchased it New. I always had track bar issues but other than that good maintenance and keeping it clean makes a difference on how long you can keep a truck.

This has been a fantastic truck. 11 years and 165,000 miles later it still fires up every time just like it did when it was new. Other than an injection pump at about 130,000 miles it has only needed fule, oil and tires. For a truck of its year, even though it isnt rated but about 8,000lbs i think, it has enough power to go around and It can move more than its rating.

My truck is a 2001 Ram 2500 with the 8 liter V10 powerplant. It also has a 5 speed manual transmission coupled to the beast. This truck hauls and tows very nicely and I rarely need to downshift on hills. Gas mileage is as expected with a V10. Not so great. I get about 9 MPG in town and about 14 on the highway. HIGHLY recommend a Dodge Ram to anyone wanting a truck.

This truck has served me very well over the last three years. It's been great for work and play. I take it offroading when I can and use it for hunting every fall. It's been great finding upgrade parts for it, many items available for it. Now I just need to save up enough cash to buy them.

5.9L Cummins ISB diesel Ram 2500. What more needs to be said? After some (necessary) fueling upgrades including an aftermarket lift pump and fuel injection pump, she ran like a top forever. With a high-end programmer, she made an insane amount of power for an older truck.

I dislike the rust that forms when the truck gets old. Long lasting, lots of miles on the truck and still rolling. Gets good fuel mileage loaded or empty. I wish I had a bigger cab, the extended cab is small for a family.

Build reduced only for inferior quality of interior furnishing. Big burly dependable ride, which fits my personality, and packs the punch when required. Being diesel and manual transmission the mileage is quite acceptable for such a heavy vehicle. Towing capacity, and carrying capacity both exceed what is needed (Which is good). Reliability of mechanical parts is quite acceptable, no unexpected breakdowns so far. Great masculine ride ;)

A tank of a truck. Great vehicle to use for towing and hauling. Very spacious interior for a extended cab. With the addition of a performance chip, you can boost horsepower and torque, really opening the potential of this truck. But watch out for costly repairs to the drivetrain.

overall the truck is great except for the dash all of them crack. performance wise is amazing it will tow anything i put behind it. i have the 24 valve high output turbo diesel and im putting down 1150 foot pounds of tourque to the wheels.
