So I recently bought a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500, and I love it. The only issue I have with it at the moment is the dent in the bed on the driver side. Ive been told it is too big to attempt to pull. Does anyone know a good fix, and how to go about doing it?

A picture would really help. If the dent is smooth, I dont see any reason it cant be pulled.

If its bent or has bends in it, you wont get rid of it unless you smooth it out with tools.

If a suction type dent puller wont work you can get a hole type, or make your own. You can always get the dent out, how much work it requires is another story.

Easiest is to suction cup it. I've never had luck but some have been able to get a toilet/sink plunger to work.

Next is trying to smack it out from behind, then drilling holes and pulling that way.
