The 2nd gen dodge rams also came with a 6 speed manual transmission. The best transmission dodge has ever come out with in my opinion.
I got a 5 speed manual 1998 that was handed down from my best friend and my firewood partner.. he took his life on the 16th of September, his father in law gifted it to me.. it was not supposed to be like this Dillon.. I love you so much
I love these trucks. They are timeless workhorses. I have a 1975 power wagon that I drive now, but this type of truck will be my next purchase.
Thanks you where very knowledgeable on this truck and help me a lot 😊
Great review.
Walker Texas Ranger had a 2nd gen Ram too!
Sick! Crazy that the diesels have 1000 lb/ft now! With 3 times the towing capactiy. So like these older dodges though.

Yes, its insane to look at performance numbers on modern trucks. These seem measly in comparison but there's still something really cool about these.
Great video. Thx.
Thx great video. I have a 99 dually 360k miles and love it. Will drive it anywhere no worries.

$12,999 wow! Wish I could buy that truck today for that price.
They did the interior refresh in 1998. But you'll see some non quad cab 98's with the newer style interior that say they were manufactured in 97

Model year 1998 was the refresh, Therefor, the second half of 97 were all produced as 98 model years. This is how all cars work, the model year does not start on January 1st with the calendar year
Nice truck. Much better than all the garbage made by anybody today.
The twister ram was a 1995 ram 2500 V10 club cab 4x4 with the 8ft long bed

Probably because it's quieter you think?
That dodge in twister was a 2500 v10 not a 1500
Mine gets 18/20mpg and it’s 4x4 6 speed manual 😎
I've never seen a 2nd gen Dodge ram trucks that has the flip up tow mirrors I'm wondering why the movement of the glass is not powered

They're aftermarket. You can get them with power adjustment and heated.
You were close On the Movie twister its a 3/4 ton Ram 2500 not a 1500 i believe it was equipped with the 5.9 magnum but the cummins turbo would have been nicer

It had a v8 not a v10......!
Sound deadening material is a godsend and can be applied easily. And fuel economy modifications do in fact exist for these. Just get rid of the God awful 47re transmission in the dadgum thing first. I myself plan to do an allison 1000 swap via CA conversions.
I with I could find a cummins. Found a really good deal on a v10 though, any thoughts?

Throw away the factory hitch and get a Draw Tite. Inspect frame for rust at that time. Weak link is the front axel. $350-$1000 to replace. Doable but it’s work I’m not up for. Make sure if you change the front axel that you get the right gear ratio.
What about the 2500? There’s no review here...
How much ? Do you still sale it? Let me know pleace!

I have one for sale in Bloomington, IN. Look on Marketplace FB. $3K needs a front axel. Frame is OK. Axle mounts are pot metal. 99’, Ram 3500 Dually, V10 (gas), 4x4, newly rebuilt Automatic Trans, ex cab with mini door, 8 foot bed, bed mat, guard rails, stepped camper lid with molded to truck countouring. (Hard to find) back window needs rebuilt to lock. Usable as is. This truck is a real good buy.

I think I may have a buyer but no money down, so it’s up for grabs. July 13th. 2021
It was a 5.9 l 6 cylinder not an 8 cylinder
That towing capacity is incorrect I’m pretty sure
Yeah, the new trucks look like crap! They be really smart to go back to what a ram should look like. I like LOVE plain, boxy, and No BS!
1994-2002 for the 2500 and 3500, not 1994-2001. Some of your other specs are not correct either.
Sold?

You must not be a diesel guy. Just so you know, you have to let the glow plugs warm up in any diesel. You can't just flip the key forward and start it right away.
