Top 5 Pros of 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500
Top 5 Cons of 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500




Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Cummins POWER, can cause understeer whenever I want.
Rides really nice.
Transmission seems to perform well.
Cons: How would you improve 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Doesn't come standard with "anti-spin" rear or front diff.
Inside is cheap, but I'm comfortable.
Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) really sucks the life out engine and will clog up causing error codes and loss of power if not resolved.
Warranty-after the initial 3y/36K is done the 5y/100K warranty only covers the engine, not the trans/transfer case or differentials.
2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 Review:
Overall, I love this truck. After reading many reviews I realized I am very lucky and I have not had to take my truck in to be repaired in the 2 yrs I've owned.
After about 1 yr I started having DPF alarms going off, which scared the crap out of me that the engine was going to have serious problems. I however proceeded to drive the truck like a demon and I don't have those issues anymore. My truck has always done what I've asked it to do.
Mileage is much worse than my '06 5.9 and I think the get-up from a stop is a little less.
Was going to trade it in on 2010, but I've decided I really like this truck and will keep it for while.
Oh, I had an anti-spin rear diff put in after 1 yr, 1 tire is just not enough traction for this beast.



Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
I was lucky enough to have the 5.9 cummins and I love it so far.
The power is good, drives and sounds like a tank going down the road.
Gas mileage is good for horse power.
Cons: How would you improve 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
The gas mileage to the cost of gas is costly.
The interior feels cheap (not a big deal in a work truck).
Bought with just 34,000 miles and the seat cushion has broken down and is now little uncomfortable.
Poorer quality paint.
2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 Review:
Overall, I love my truck and I'm looking to keep it for the long haul.



Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Like the styling and Cummins Power.
Cons: How would you improve 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Terrible reliability! Absolutely the worst I have ever experienced! A virtual nightmare of safety problems and component failures.
2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 Review:
2007 Dodge 2500 Cummins. I only have 80,000 miles and the reliability is a nightmare. I imported the truck to Canada from the U.S. with only 1900 miles on it. Dodge does not honor any warranty on imported trucks.
Problems started with the "Cat full warning" I consulted a few forums and they advised to drop a few gears and run it at higher rpm until it would regenerate. It worked although I had to do it several times. After 50k the problem doesn't happen anymore.
Then the death wobble on the front axle started. The truck shook so violently that I would lose complete steering control that wouldn't correct until I almost came to a stop. They upgraded the steering linkage but had to have the front end aligned 3 times. It's ok now.
Then all four axle seals had to be replaced. Every U joint had to be replaced. every Ball joint had to be replaced. Then the transmission split wide open and left me stranded. That was a $7600 touch plus a $500 towing bill. Then the front drive shaft had to be replaced, another $500. Then the water pump went and now my transfer case is cracked. I have repairs around $20,000 and only 80,000 miles. Most miles are highway and gravel road running empty. Very rarely I pull a 5th wheel camper. I can't imagine what will happen next.
I would get rid of it but it's essentially new with most components replaced. The only thing that hasn't failed is the Cummins except for the water pump and the exhaust emission control.

Ram 2500, 2007 6.7L mega is a very nice truck.
Cons: How would you improve 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Have Cummings/Dodge come up with a solution to fix the engine light and exhaust problem. Continual service calls are frustrating and a solution to these problems should be made to make an end. At present what is one to do when a sig alert or slowdown occurs on the freeway (just try to drive on w/engine light on and w/ a plugged DPF until it will not run or sit on the side of the FW)?
2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 Review:
Would give the 6.7L a good review if Dodge/Cummings would find a solution to the engine light and exhaust problems but right now I would not recommend anyone buying one especially if they plan on pulling a trailer or do city driving.




Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Lots of power (diesel), better fuel mileage than my old 2004 Ford F350 diesel. Looks very nice!
Cons: How would you improve 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Won't run without the engine light coming on. Had it to the garage 4 times so far and just came on again. Better fix it soon or it will be a "LEMON"!!!
2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 Review:
I fit wasn't for the added pollution junk, this truck would be great. But if they can't fix it properly, then it's going back (for good)! Right now I'd give it a 2. If they fix it, it would be a 4.5. (Nothing's perfect)!




Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Everything! Great power for MPG, spacious interior with Mega Cab, overall appearance.
Cons: How would you improve 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Add $200 to MSRP and use stainless hardware for exposed fasteners.
2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 Review:
Very satisfied with performance and economy.




Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
The confort of the MEGA CAB
Cons: How would you improve 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Better performance to compensate the weight of the vehicle, more responsive turbo at low RPM.
2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 Review:
Overall, for the money dealers are asking for the new 6.7 the are not worth it. The 5.9 isa better truck all around.




Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
everything except the way that the 6.7 runs.
Cons: How would you improve 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
fix the hesitation that the motor has when shifting gears, dodge says that is natural for it bull.




Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
I got it for a good price and it has a fair amount of power.
Cons: How would you improve 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
gas mileage, exhaust smell when entering highway on-ramp, road noise and better seat material
2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 Review:
probably will not purchase another dodge




Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=PoorPros: What do you like about 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
poor milage
Cons: How would you improve 2007 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
