But her new tincan caravan is so bad. Got it used from a rental car company, which really should be a big glaring impending doom feeling, but nooooooooo. She goes and buys this crap without saying anything to me, and i had told her to go look at T.Siennas, and she shows up with a newish caravan and i told her right then, you are going to regret it and within a month the back brake lines and brakes began seizing up and then right after she had it in for a giant pile of money removal, the damn transmission screwedup and wouldn't drive in any fast gears and went into "limp mode" while we were trying to get her to a eye surgery checkup and back home and we are on the expressway driving thirty as its the top speed it will go, which i guess is better than completely nonfunctional. So they ended up having to replace the whole transmission as it died bad inside,but the repair shop and insurance dept. screwed around fora month dithering about covering it that she called the owner of the dealership and he was unaware of the issues going on and he went and talked to all of them and must have roasted them because they called mom back and said they were going to replace it all and do everything for free for having had to go without a car for weeks when my dad needed to get to doctor appointments and procedures in a car with air conditioning.

I have a 2012 Ram 3500 once it had water pump & evaporator coil go out it hasn’t had any issues.

Years ago a friend of mine had her car not start at a gas station, so I went over there to help her out. The starter was on its way out, but I tapped on it and got it to crank over. Her stepdad arrived and she was getting upset talking to him about it, and I’ll never forget what he said. “Emily, it’s a 1994 Dodge Spirit...you can’t expect the world of it.” 😆

I bought a 2002 Ram with 147k mile about 6 years ago with a new 4.7 engine and transmission. The local mechanic here had worked weeks after the engine install without being able to get the truck through an inspection, so the owner sold it to me for the payoff. I found a vacuum line off and water in the fuel tank. About 20k miles ago, the rear end went out, which really surprised me. Since then, this truck has been a champ.

4:10 Yep. My 2012 Ram 1500 has 175k ... and a fuse group mysteriously unseated itself (resulting in driving for months with the seat belt light (and annoying ding) and airbag light staying on. Gas cap light is on as well. Dome light doesn't come on (bulb is still good). FM/AM radio stopped working years ago. All sorts of wonderful issues.

I had a 97 with the 5.9 L V8, my god I lived that thing... I ended up trading it to my dad because gas was >$3.00/gal and it got ~10 miles per. the engine had been rebuilt once before i got it (don't know why), only thing I had done with it was replace the timing chain cover gasket (had the water pump replaced while the mechanic was in there). Not insignificant issues... but holy hell did that thing have power and the sound was something that's been missing in everything I've bought since.

My 2003 Ram has been the best vehicle I’ve owned. So far. I realize i must be lucky. Only mechanical parts ive replaced so far have been the brake rotors and pads. 145,000 miles the newer dodges have a bad rep. Planning on the next truck to be a toyota.

I've had two, over a twenty plus time span, a Carina and I'm still driving an Avensis, European models. Any time I got the urge to get another car, I just gave the car a good mechanical make over, general stuff, treated it 😆 and a good valeting, to get over that urge. I felt real good not spending thousands on a new car I never needed, just for that feeling. I think you should have kept that Celica, I still regret getting rid of that Carina, even though the Avensis is equally great, just because I probably could still have kept that running good, but I caved 😅😅😅

Dana Herron if they kept it a little longer they would have realized how timeless the design is.

For those who don't know, banging on the starter actually does the trick sometimes. Always try that before calling a tow truck. The starter died on my 2005 Accord at ~200k miles. For several months, I kept a really long screw driver in the trunk to reach down and bang on it when the solenoid wouldn't engage. This worked until I finally got around to replacing it (Honda decided to put it under the intake manifold). The starter on my 4 cylinder was the same size as on that Ram pickup in this vid, just to confirm what Scotty said about how undersized it is. No wonder it burned out.

I didn’t buy it because it was a dodge. I bought it because my manager offered it to me for $800. It’s in really good shape except for the typical rust

Rams have always been solid trucks. I'm sorry but here in the midwest Toyota trucks are not common. Simply because they just don't keep up with the big boy brands. I had to tow with a Tundra once, and see why you don't see a lot of them on the road around here. That 07 RAM is pretty clean. Most Chevys from that era would be rusted out at every wheel with a tick on cold start.

Drake Gould I live in the midwest and see plenty of horribly rusty dodge rams. And yes it’s true old toyotas aren’t as popular.

Truth why pre 1980 vehicles are much easier to work on. I miss the days when pickups were pretty plain. Remember those days. You could get a work truck with no carpet, no air, maybe just an AM radio and a base V8. My dad's last truck was a 85 Ford F150 with the 300, 6 cylinder , no air , no carpet, just a AM radio. He only used it for stuff around the house and hauling things.

Rams get so much hate (understandable) but I just love em

Hey Scotty, I'm retired and living in Costa Rica. I love your videos and I appreciate your honesty. I also want to thank you for guarding my house when I'm gone. I AM PAYING YOU FOR THIS! When I leave, I turn on your videos with the volume up and they play all day. It sounds like there's someone home and I feel more secure. Buying a car here? Only Toyota or possibly Honda. No problem with parts or funding good mechanics who can fix them. Keep it up and thanks!

I have owned 4 Rams, 1984 with the 318, 1985 with the 225 slant 6, 2004 with the 3.7 V-6, and 1995 with the Cummins 5.9 Turbodiesel. I never had problems with any on them, Never broke down, Never had to repair anything. My next truck will be a Ram.

Right, shocker, cheap Ebay parts. Even if its non-Chrysler, if you understand it enough about what a part does... plastic bushings wont last. Thats why Dodge wanted $350 for a window regulator and $200 to install it. a part from the factory can be designed to fail, so you go back to the parts counter at the dealer and bend over... OR you research and find the same part for less. Best example, Aston Martin V12s and their fuel injectors, $1200 or same part number as a Ford Taurus for $100.

Scotty; my 1998 Ram 1500 with 205,000 runs great. I’m original owner. But I follow your maintenance guidance. The early problems I had was a bad Timkin bearing in the rear end. Mechanic said they had problems with the Mexico Dana rear ends. They wanted 1500 to fix (20 years ago) I fixed it for less than $100. It took me about 4 hours. I did replace water pump. I replaced the intake manifold gasket to reduce oil consumption. Of course I regularly replaced fluids. I ordered a new Ford truck based on your recommendation since Rams are now mixed with many countries parts. I’ll keep my Dodge till it dies. The order process for the new Ford has been exhausting. Ordered in Nov; had 4 delay emails now not due to be built till April. I order new because I get factory cost from my employer. I’ve been burnt on every used car I’ve bought.
