What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 Ram 1500

2013 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

2014 4dr Crew Cab 6.5ft bed 395-horsepower 5.7L V8
8-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range
The V8 with 8 speed is an amazing combination. Smooth shifting and all the power whne you need it. see full Ram 1500 review
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
2013 Ram 1500 Powertrain: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
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

Stock tires are pretty good up to about 15k miles, then start to get a bit loose in bad weather. see full Ram 1500 review
