Great truck very strong motors built tough to last
January 6, 2023Great vehicle if you are looking for a truck to be reliable for pulling or hauling. Replaced original engine two years ago with an engine that had 40 thousand miles. Only issue had with truck in three years was the engine which I took care of.
May 19, 2013has been extremely reliable, with 90k miles on it only two or three parts have broke and been changed, has been babied, waxed and buffed frequently, all stock, but with 33" tires and a kickin stereo system. will be adding a 2" lift and new bed liner soon, but overall has been hard to beat. nothing fast or extreme, but it tows my racecar to the track just fine, cant ask for more... 15mpg

August 18, 2009performance- acceleration is great even with 4 wheel drive, breaking could be improved a bit but its a big truck so thats what you get, handling is good unless you put massive tires on it. Quality- is great mechanically, style wise, however the plastic dash should have been rethought appearance- exterior is awesome looks tough, mean, and quick for a truck. the interior is nice minus the dash that will crack on ya. Cost- other than changing the oil and new breaks I haven't had to do a thing to my truck, just gotta take care of them. fun- i love it, great paint job, all black interior, tinted windows, big engine, sounds great just a fun car to drive and haul your buddies to a tailgate in.
October 19, 2011great in the mud and snow of northern new york, hurts the wallet on gas and tires but its all around worth every penny once your out in the mud or that favorite fishing spot, when you dont feel like walkin, haha
May 13, 2014its a truck what more can I say, for everyday working truck or family hauler, pulls boat trailer well, has been very reliably, and the rear door arrangement is better than most other comperable trucks, easy to maintain lots of room under the hood, 5.9 magnum has plenty of go and torque, not bad mileage for a big v8
March 9, 2011It's a great truck, a hand me down from my grandfather. He drove it around 60 miles a day, 4 days a week to do work on some land he owns. The truck is a blast to drive. The only problem is that as I accelerate, or go up a hill, the A/C switches from face to windshield. It's weird.
August 12, 2010I love my truck and so far since the fix up have had no problems, my dad did not take too care of it so it needed a bit of work from sitting for a few years but it's running great now.
August 7, 2012Weekly driver, added a few upgrades over the past year. Now has full alarm w/remote start, heated seats, and upgraded speakers inside. Camper frame mounts fore & aft, and airbags, looking to add a rear sway bar. Under the hood is to much to tell right now, but I am adding a new intake soon replace the "keg".
February 22, 2012good value for the year and model and fair milage
