Dodge Ram 1500 4X4 V8 NR No Reserve

2002 Dodge Ram 1500 Description

Command the road in this full-size Dodge that has all of the equipment you really want. This is a 4.7L V8 4X4 with power options, cruise control, a tilt-wheel, and Infinity Premium Sound.
This is a great truck that is ready to drive anywhere. The full-size V8 pulls strong, the transmission shifts smoothly and as it should, and the four-wheel drive is rock-solid. It drives straight and true on the highway without any odd noises, rattles, bumps, or shakes in the wheel. You will be riding in comfort. The A/C works, heated side-mirrors, too! The battery is new as of 03/2016.
The towing package is a class IV (largest class rating available under a goose-neck) and also added an additional transmission oil cooler the truck, HD engine cooling, and HD shocks - which are a huge benefit. Transmission coolers and regular maintenance are the secret to keeping an automatic transmission going for an extended period of time- and this truck has both going for it.
An anti-spin rear axle and ABS rear-disk brake setup are worth over $1,300 alone. Everyone with a truck wants the limited slip rear-end! This truck has excellent traction and grip when in four-wheel drive, and the semi-locking differential works as it should. The independent front suspension feels great during normal driving.
Mechanical 8/10
Issues that drop this truck from a perfect ten include tires that should be replaced before next season, and a passenger side window button that doesn't always work (the window can always be operated from the driver's side switch.) The transmission weeps a bit of fluid at the pan seal - but not any measurable amount over the many miles I've driven it. It leaks a bit of coolant, but as long as you keep it topped off while changing the oil it's not a bother. It starts up strong on a battery that was replaced in March.
The Exterior 7/10
This is a truck, and furthermore a used truck. The obvious downgrade here is for the passenger bed side and rear bumper. Scratches and dents here and there can be found along the bed - but the cab is in great shape. No rust or body issues, there. The fog lights are missing - but the switch and wiring are all still there. The housings with new bulbs are $60. The passenger side tail light has a crack, but doesn't appear to allow moisture inside.
Interior 8.5/10
The seats are relatively clean and free of stains or rips. The dash plastic is cracking as it does in all of these trucks, but it is all there. The premium infinity sound is still in tact and works superbly.
Sorry, but the Lawn Mower and other items are not included and are for demonstration purposes only.

Update: My father reports that the power locks stopped working! So, you have to push the lock manually - it could be the switch or the fuse so I'm going to have him check the fuses later when we replace the windshield wipers. Last thing I missed is the passenger outside mirror housing is cracked a bit. The dash has one crack by the passenger side on top and a couple in the far forward piece. The area in front of the driver looks good!
