Are used RAM trucks good quality?

If you want a truck that doesn't sacrifice comfort for power, the 2025 Ram 1500 is an excellent choice. With bold features, slick styling, and undeniable strength, this pickup was named MotorTrend's 2025 Truck of the Year and offers just about everything a driver could need in one package. 6 Top Features of the 2025 Ram 1500 1. 3.6L Pentastar V6 Engine The base engine for this year's Ram 1500 is a dependable 3.6L Pentastar V6 engine with eTorque. While this hybrid engine was also available on the 2024 Ram 1500 and previous models, it has proven to be a reliable, powerful engine with great fuel economy and a smooth ride. When paired with the 8-speed automatic transmission, drivers get a whopping 305 horses, 269 max torque, a maximum payload of 2,370 lbs., and 8,110 lbs. of towing capacity. There's also next to no perceptible lag when accelerating quickly, even with this truck's large size, and highway fuel economy can get as high as 25 mpg. more 2. 5-Link Solid Axle Rear Suspension Ever since Ram did away with leaf springs on their trucks in 2009, they've been known for their effortless rides. The new 1500 couples a 5-link solid axle rear suspension system with double control-arm front suspension for an even smoother drive, so even hours-long trips are a breeze. 3. Standard 12-Inch Touchscreen The Ram 1500's touchscreen gets an upgrade from 8.4 inches to 12 inches with higher resolution, which now comes standard on all trims. This elevates the interior cabin experience and gives drivers easy access to controls when they're needed. 4. LED Headlamps The 1500 also gets an updated exterior, with new grilles and LED headlamps in lieu of halogen bulbs. LEDs are brighter and more efficient than traditional headlights, and they also last longer before needing replacement. 5. 98% Steel Frame The Ram 1500's frame is crafted from 98% high-strength steel, giving it plenty of strength and resilience to match its power. Generally, steel frames outperform aluminum ones and cost 2 to 3 times less. 6. 5 Different Drive Modes The base model of the new Ram 1500 offers five different drive modes for maximum capability. This allows drivers to choose between Normal, Tow, Snow, Sport, and Off-Road modes depending on the terrain and outdoor conditions. 7. Standard 18-Inch x 7.5-Inch Steel Painted Wheels The Ram also has 18-inch x 7.5-Inch steel painted wheels that come standard. They are equipped with 275/65R18 BSW All-Season ​LLRR Tires for extra durability.
