Depending on who you ask... the ram is a nightmare for dependability. Its my second one. The first one went 300 k all original before we sold it. Its current owner is at 377k still all original untouched. Ours is good so far but its still a baby! see full Dodge Ram 1500 review

Dodge does not have the best reputation for reliablity but it has really improved to the level that I think anyone still holding that grudge is living in the past. Have spent less than $500 on repairs in 10.5 years. Most of that was wheel bearings which on vehicles this size used hard like mine is practically a maintenace item. see full Dodge Ram 1500 review
