Any of you that drive one of these, what are your pros and cons? Would you recommend one to a friend?

Drove '03 1500 for ten years. Drove '06 2500 for 2 years. Dashboards cracking is the biggest complaint for '02-'04. Think dodge fixed the problem after that. Dodge front ends typically need upgrading as well after 100,000 miles. Have that looked over. If it's a 2500, have the fuel injectors inspected. Otherwise, very powerful trucks and dependable trucks. I currently drive an '11 2500

Yea, the one I found is an '05 with just over 100k. Looks very clean, but I will take a closer look at the front when I go look at it. Anything particular in the front that is a problem child?

Re: Mid 2000's dodge ram reviews?
I have a 2006 Mega Cab and i like it as a truck, but the Dodge "Death Wobble" is very real and always seems to be a problem. I have replaced everything under my front end and still get it if I catch a bridge expansion joint wrong or the right series of bumps. It is pathetic that Dodge did not fix this problem as wide spread as it was.

I have an 2004, 2500 (gas burner) with over 200K miles. I have had the front end worked on but other than that just minor stuff. I have swamped over to Rotella oil cause she started using some. But I still drive the wheels off this truck. Dash board is cracking. But I wouldnt sale mine today.
