What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Ram 1500

2011 Ram 1500 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Extended Cab 6.5ft bed 215-horsepower 3.7L V6
4-speed automatic RWD
This truck inset made for comfort. The headrests intrude big time on this. If your going on long trips in this truck remove the headrests it actually more comfortable that way. see full Ram 1500 review

What Our Members Are Saying about the Powertrain of the 2011 Ram 1500

2011 Ram 1500 Powertrain: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Crew Cab 5.5ft bed 390-horsepower 5.7L V8
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD
No need to put your foot down. This truck has so much power its like driving a rocket compared to my last truck. I really love this Hemi V8. So far I've had very good luck with this truck. I've put almost 20k miles on it. see full Ram 1500 review
2011 4dr Crew Cab 5.5ft bed 390-horsepower 5.7L V8
5-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range
Simply put, the 5.7L Hemi shines brightly in this package. Offering 20 more horsepower than 5.7L engines in the passenger cars, the truck ismuch lighter on its feet than the 300HP 4.7L version offered the same year. Acceleration is crisp when the truck is lightly loaded. It's not sports car fast, but it will run with virtually any average sedan without embarrassing itself. With a load in the bed or hitched to the back, the Hemi's grunt reallyshines. I have hauled trailers in excess of 8,000 pounds with my vehicle, which is properly equipped to handle up to 10,000 pounds. I frequently use the truck for scrap metal runs, as well as trailering medium sized enclosed trailers, and there is never a problem getting the job done, even if the job calls for hauling over unpaved surfaces or through 12" of snow. The truck barely knows that my 2500 pound boat and trailer package is attached until it is time to haul it back up a steep launch ramp at the end of the day, and even then it does well. see full Ram 1500 review

2012 4dr Extended Cab 6.5ft bed 215-horsepower 3.7L V6
4-speed automatic RWD
I know it's a V6 but their should still be some better standard in a truck of this class. With only 215 hp going up hills with a load was like pulling teeth. The steering was more car like than truck. I hated that. The v6 felt cheap and was gas crazy. Filled it up at least twice a week from empty. see full Ram 1500 review

The motor is awesome but the transmission shifts kind of hard. see full Ram 1500 review
