I am thinking I need to upgrade from my 97 Ram club cab to a 3rd gen Ram. I want a quad cab 4x4 with automatic. What do I need to look for when I am shopping. Miles will probably be anywhere from 60,000 to 100,000.

Is there anything major that I should know about and shy away from?

Thanks for any help

 

Dont make the mistake I did and buy a mega cab 2500 with the deisel.

 

did i hear mega cab???

 

Ya, mega cab and mistake just don't belong in the same sentence.

 

yea, I'm in the market for one and want to stear another one of us in the right direction. I soooo want one! with twins, i need more room!

 

He's saying he made the mistake of NOT buying a mega cab.

 

for that milage your looking at a 05 maybe an o6 the diff. is the front end they went with srtuts on th o6 and refigured the headlight assembly. they got bigger the o7's have detailed tailights and the same suspension as the 06's Get a credit union loan at 5.9% and start your journey , get the carfax and don't beat on it you should do just fine. besides we'll be here to help jic. good luck dude.

 

If you have kids like i do and dont want to drive anything but a truck then a mega is the way to go , but i do enjoy the wifes nitro

 

C'mon rh not everyone needs a mega cab !!! lol

 

lol i guess but if this one dies im replacing it with another . i just love the room
