Hey Mr5150, you said the truck was a 2003 with a 5.9? Im still new to the Dodge truck world but most of the guys in the Forum have said that 2002 was the last year a 5.9 was offered, so I would check the Blue Book for an 02 not an 03.

 

I've got a '02 1500 QC with the 5.9, & man I love this truck!!! I just need to find some more "bang for the buck" parts & stuff. Oh, it trips me out when guys pull up beside me scared, & then when they don't see the Hemi badge, they wanna act bad. I still whup dat *** though, lol.

 

actually the 5.9 is still offered I have one in my 2005 and love it.

 

I love my 02 Ram, It seems to be very dependable only problem I have had is a reverse servo go out but was an easy fix. However the thing does get crappy gas milage, around 12 average and I do alot of city driving. Big thing is if you can keep your fat foot out of the throttle. she has about 90k and still runs like a champ.

 

I've gotten 130 out of mine so far....
