What Owners are Saying About the 2003 Dodge Ram Van 3500

"Owned for 20 years"

"This is absolutely the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. It only had 27,000 night when I got it I don’t drive it a whole lot right now has 140,000. I have never had to put anything major into it other than maintenance and it still drives great. I have never been happier as far as reliability wise with a vehicle Performance wise comet it is a V-8 and plenty powerful it will catch a bit of wind. I took all of the extra seats out of it when I got it because I need it for hauling things. ."

"250,000 miles and still as strong as the day i bought it.Use for work under extreme weight every day!"

"workhorse"

"This is my third 2500 Ram Van,('99,120k) all bought very used, but from original owners. Have done minimal maintenance and had many fender benders, but they keep going. I need a large van for an electric wheelchair lift for my son, but can only afford one vehicle, so this is also the everyday transportation, Hard to see cars, poles, etc. lower than you if they are close. Very poor visibility to rear, and worse to the right--scary to change lanes, but that is partly due to the folded lift blocking side window. I don't know if it is such a problem in non-handicapped vans. Right side mirror in every van blows inward to the window at highway speed, always needs to be pushed back out at lights, but my Chevy van did this also. Poor visibility means I have had lots of parking lot incidents, but adding bigger or extra mirrors would help. Never hurt the van, only whatever I backed into. Have been in accidents where someone hit the van and totaled their car; van was barely dented and drove away. These vans are like tanks. Very comfortable ride, horrible mileage but this has varied from just poor to disgusting. Reliable, comfortable, old friend, dependable in spite of abuse!"
