The 2002 Dodge Ram Cummins is a highly sought after vehicle especially for someone looking into a manual because they were the last year of the2nd generation body but the first year they ran the 6 speed manual option. The 24 valve 5.9l engine is one of the best engines Cummins has designed bringing torque and fuel economy to the 3/4 ton and 1 ton lineupJan 19, 2021

I really do love my truck, I haven't found anything I couldn't tow with it. From my 5th wheel rv to a 38,000 lb trailer loaded for brick laying. My friends have Fords and they have ea been in the shop multipule times. I replaced the injection pump at 155,000 and an after market transfer pump outside of brakes and such---no problems--except a few rattles.Apr 28, 2015

Rides like a tank, good fuel mileage with the diesel, the dash shatered, the cup hoder broke, cheep plastic did not last, never noticed trailer weight, VP44 pump is so pricey to replace that you may have to get a loan.Dec 23, 2011

Plenty of power and towing ability. The truck falls apart around the Cummins and the rest of the driveline. Dodge needs to redesign the entire truck part and leave the drivelive alone. Its fun to drive with the 5 speed and has the power to outrun most of the lil rice rockets and piss em off. Overall its a great truck just mainly the interior is junk.

very fast truck no speed limiter. good brakes when hauling trailers. rides like a tank though. this truck has needed repairs to drivetrain but it was drivers fault everything broke lol. this truck will get 26mpg on the highway and with the cheaper cost of diesel it almost pays to drive it. this is a very fun truck to drive turns alot of heads.Apr 01, 2010

This 2002 Dodge Diesel has 293,000 miles on it without any major problems! It was used as a company truck to pull empty trailers around America. Recently i have added stickers and plates to the truck (not in the picture). But the durability of this truck is amazing. It has tons of power!!! I have a 140 hp chip in my dodge, and i believe i got this truck for a hell of a price at just $7,500! This is currently used as a school truck and is getting around 15mpg around town! The truck is very fun to drive and i recomend it to anyone looking for a great truck.Dec 21, 2009

My dodge is my daily drivier and its quaility is pretty good. The performance of my dodge is probably around 450 hp. The fuel mileage is great it gets around 23 miles to the gallon. My dodge is fun to drive especially when people tailgate ya because to can make them disappear in a cloud of black smoke.Nov 09, 2009

Hello mates. I've got a truck that would blow your mind.
The
peformance the Cummins pushies out is amazing like the
overall Horsepower and TORQUE. It is sure a fun to drive
especially when you roll COAL on somebody. Once i rolled
coal on a BMW 650li convertible (with the top down) and
made him gag like he was in a coal mine! I sure got the
truck for a GREAT deal. It had 74,100 when i got it. I
paid 15 Grand for it. Most Dodge Cummins Trucks on
Craigslist have 125k or more on it and sold for 15+K.
That tells you how great the engine is. IT IS ONE TOUGH
ENGINE! Truly tough as an ANVIL. Nov 04, 2009

The 8 ft. bed is good for transporting all sorts of
things. The extended cab is perfect place for throwing
stuff in the back, car pooling etc.. If you like driving a
standard, this is the perfect start. You can start in 2nd
gear and not stall it. Jul 11, 2009

Overall, very good truck. Love the power of the Cummins engine, but wish it had an automatic. Getting tired of shifting. Oh well, I'll get that when I get a crew cab. Needs more go fast goodies, but have a few already. If I can make 500 hp and get 20 mpg I'll be happy. I know it can be done but it takes too much money. Jan 17, 2009

Hands down the best truck I've owned to date. Get tired of shifting but the Cummins engine has more power than I need. Plan on putting a programmer and more go fast stuff soon, but working on getting it looking good right now. Looks good rollin' on dubs! Turns heads everywhere it goes. Looks good, sounds good with the 6" exhaust, and smokes out the bikers and convertibles at the touch of the throttle. What more fun do you need.Dec 20, 2008

Although Dodge changed the 2002 Ram 1500 body style, the 2500 and the 3500 remained the older body style. The lines are clean and smooth. The truck has great stock suspension and the 2500 sits at a stock clearance of 6'10". Its nice and heavy, great in the snow or mud.
At 70,000 miles, my truck has had almost the entire front end replaced. It seems as though Dodge tie-rods and upper and lower ball joints are not as durable as the rest of the front components. The steering also continually pulls to the left after several alignments and brake work...nothing seems to correct this. However, my cousin has a 2002 Ram 3500 which seems to do the same thing.
I would recommend this truck to friends IF they have had some past experience with trucks and do not mind doing maintenance on thier own. It has had a few problems, but when it runs, it runs well. If you cant Dodge it, Ram it.Mar 17, 2008
