Here is a REALLY nice Dodge Ram 1500.
It’s a Dodge Ram 1500 ST with a 3.7 liter V6 engine.
The first thing I did in checking out this truck was to walk around it and look up close to see if there was any apparent paint or body work on the truck. From what I can tell there is none. I did notice two small dings on the vehicles. One is on the tailgate and the other and hard to see one is on the lower part of the drivers side door.
Next I ran a Vehicle History Report and it came back clean showing no accidents or issues (remember don’t trust Carfax or AutoCheck to tell you if a vehicle has really been in accident).
Then I took it for a drive. This Dodge Ram drives really well. It comes equipped with a somewhat hard to find 6-speed manual transmission. Surprisingly the manual transmission shifted more like a car than a truck. Sometimes the clutches on trucks take a little more strength or effort to use, but not on this truck.
For a truck, the Dodge handled pretty well. Acceleration and braking are what you would expect with this type of vehicle.
The interior is in VERY GOOD condition. I did not notice any tares or significant stains on the seats and carpet.
The truck has passed a Virginia State Safety Inspection. Mechanically, we put new struts on the front end and the engine is strong.
One of things I like about this truck is even though is a 2-wheel drive, it sits up like a 4-wheel drive truck. It also has a nice bed liner already in it.
I think this would make a nice truck for anyone looking to have a truck for full-time work or just for weekend projects around the house.
I checked the AMV (Average Market Value) on the truck by comparing prices from four sources: Kelley Blue Book, NADA, Edmunds and Manheim Auto Auctions and got $10,645 as an Average Market Value. The Dodge is offered for sale at $9,950.
