Top 5 Pros of 2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500
Top 5 Cons of 2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500




Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Excellent Engine. Can't beat the Cummins 5.9L. They are still a toddler at 92 thousand. Take care of engine and it will last you to 400 thousand easy. The truck will fall apart before the engine dies.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Definitely the paint quality. SUCKS Attention Dodge: GET RID OF THE CLEAR COAT and put some old fashioned paint on these trucks so that you can buff them to a shine.
Poor quality paint and Clear Coat. Unless you take extra care of the body it will look awful in 7 years.
2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 Review:
This is a great truck. I have the 5.9L with a 4 speed automatic transmission. I get excellent fuel mileage on highway driving at 1500 RPM. I usually get without towing anywhere from 26 to 29 MPG on level freeway cruising at 55 mph. Can't beat a diesel for mpg.
Lots of pulling power. 610 lb - ft. Can't beat it for pulling.
The only thing I wish Dodge would do is put a better paint job on these trucks. Very poor quality.




Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Lots of power.
Like the 6 speed transmission.
A good ride.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Put a flywheel in it that won't wear and make the pickup shake.

The Cummin's and the Mega Cab.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Make the 6 speed manual trans a little smoother, the A/C colder, and the dash something from this century.
2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 Review:
Truck would be better if I could take the ride of my Ford Lariat, the smooth manual trans from my Dakota, and the COLD a/c from our Lexus.

The 5.9 Cummings engine is the best and the 6 speed man trans.

Bigger tires but not too big.

Smoothest ride I have had in a 2500.

Overall good truck.



Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
I like the smooth powerful Cummins engine, and 6 speed manual trans. Great towing truck.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Better interior ventilation. One has to crack a window to allow the AC or heater to work at full efficiency.
Better available axle gearing. This truck is capable of 25 mpg+ if it had proper gearing, and still lots of power.
Better suspension that is not as upset over ruts.
2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 Review:
This Ram is the best overall truck I've owned. Looks good, Drives good and runs good.
I'd buy another one if it had better gearing.



Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Power.
Looks.
Fuel Economy.
I know many mentioned that it's not good, but it's 2 1/2 mpg better than my 1/2 ton Ford was...and twice the truck!
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
6 speed auto would be nice...a little smoother ride too.
2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 Review:
Great truck!




Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Great diesel power, good ride quality and much nicer interior.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
A five speed automatic and a bit less interior plastic.
2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 Review:
Much nicer than previous 3500. Great towing capability and much smoother and controlled ride quality. The interior is a great deal better and a nice place to take a long ride. A Cummins diesel is a Cummins diesel--a truly built from the bottom up REAL diesel. None finer!!!
