Pros & cons | ||
Summary | The Dodge Ram is one of the most recognizable vehicles on the road today, and certainly has notable exterior styling, thanks to its crosshairs-style grille and bulbous hood that rests on top of bulging fenders. The styling has been in place since the early 1990s, and the 2002 redesign kept the majority of the style in place. It's an excellent truck with plenty of virtues to draw in truck buyers, but the full-size segment has heated up to the point that it’s hard to find a bad apple. | |
