Hi All -

I am looking to get a quad cab dodge 1500. I went on dodges site but I would like to hear user opinions from you guys

With all the rebates the price should be great. I plan to lease most likely, as I like a new truck/car every 3 years or so and dont do any mods.

Shoud I go with the HEMI ST quad cab?

I will be towing a 25 foot center console occasionally... I am not sure how good these trucks are with rear slip and if I need to spend the extra cash for the 4x4?

I want a full loaded with leather, sunroof, etc.

Thanks

 

CTD. I know it's not the 1500, but when I hear towing I instanly think CTD.

 

I wont be towing far or too oftenand the boat isnt too big...

 

In that case, I don't see a need for a question. If you want QC, HEMI hands down.I went with a 4.7L cause I wanted a RC and it was more cost effective for me. I drove bothe QC HEMI and RC 4.7 and with the weight differences they felt like they handled the same to me. Depending on how big your boat is, there shouldn't be a problem at all with the HEMI.

 

Over kill much? A CTD needed for a 25 foot boat?

Honestly... A Quad Cab SLT 4x4 HEMI would be great! You should even be able to get away with a 4.7.

I suggest the HEMI, I just got one... great truck!

 

I've got a 24'cabin cruiser and a 15002wd QC with the 5.7. It is the perfect boat towin machine! Never had a problem either going or stopping. Would love the diesel if someone wanted to donate the extra $$.

 

I'll see what the dealer has in SLT 5.7 hemi... the rebates are great!

 

Found a 2007 Hemi Laramine Packagethat is MSRP 35k. With rebate and invoice price the cost is 27k.

Going to test drive it on friday and see about financing through costco..

 

All I can say is I love my RC Hemi SLT Ram.

 

I don't have anything to tow...yet; looking at getting a travel trailer next year. At any rate, I've got just over three weeks and 1100 miles on 07 Hemi QC 4x4 and I LOVE THIS TRUCK!! The dealer has been great about resolving typical new vehicle crap (rear vibes caused by out-of-balance rear wheels). Good luck with your purchase and please post a pic of your new ride!
