Hi guys,
I am new to the forum but have been lurking for quite sometime. From what I can tell, everyone loves their RAM trucks and I can't find hardly any complaints on them, at least compared to my current truck. So I am looking for some advice. I currently own a 2016 GMC Canyon that has been nothing but headaches since I bought it and I am starting to realize I should have went with a full size truck to begin with. So I was looking at what truck I might like, so I went and test drove a 2017 RAM Big Horn with the Hemi 5.7 and the 8 speed transmission and man was I impressed! It made my truck look like a Chevy Cavalier. However, it was to far out of my price range. So I started looking at the used market and found a 2014 RAM Sport with the Hemi 5.7 and the 8 speed that I am planning on going to test drive tomorrow. It's all black and semi loaded in terms of features. It has 48,000 miles on it which is a little more than what my truck has now but the upgrades make it worth the extra miles. The dealer is asking $29k and I am thinking about pitching them around $25k. So I wanted to see, how does everyone feel about the 2014 model? From what I have read online, I noticed it seemed to have the most issues and I wanted to know what things I should look for when I go to test drive the RAM. Any general information or nods in the right direction is appreciated!
