Best sites for locating the RAM 3500 I am looking for?

[paustin]

Morning all!

Looking for the best site for locating the RAM 3500 I am looking for. I am looking for a site(s) that allows me to specify what I am looking for without having to wade through a lot of poorly written descriptions, and has enough volume to actually pick from. I would appreciate any suggestions you may have.

I will be purchasing a heavy 5th wheel (DRV Full hours) ~23,000 pounds. I will shortly be looking for an appropriate truck and I'd like to begin shopping. I've hit a few sites that didn't provide enough filters to let me find what I need. I just don't want to wade through tons of adverts.

If it helps, I'm looking for
Must have

• Dodge Ram 3500, Dually
• Cummins 6.7
• Aisin automatic transmission
• 4.10
• 8ft bed (not the 6'4")
• Extended cab (dont really care if it is a SLT, Big Horn, etc, just need a back seat)
• Anything after say.....2012

Like to have. If it isn't included, I'll have to add it in later

• Tow package
• 5th wheel hookup (Ball in the truck)
• Don't really care about color, style, or cosmetic condition. The mechanics need to be solid.

Autotrader or cars.com are helpful

I always research vehicles on The Costco web site. It's a great tool

Thanks for the initial responses!
Costco - I am looking for used, so they wont help that much
Cars.com - Great site. Been there. They don't have enough filters, so I wind up wading through a lot of junk. Was hoping y'all Dodge gods had some great ideas.

I used autotrader and cars.com when looking for mine (rcsb sports are very hard to find in the northeast), but to make sure it had the correct gears and few other things dealers never include in their listing I used this site to cross reference potential candidates:

Ram Trucks - Contact Us

On that page you can go to equipment listing and copy/paste the vin and you get the build sheet for the truck which should list all the info you're looking for.

If you can't narrow your choice down here you are not trying

@all - thanks, that was perfect. The combo between cargurus.com and the VIN look up site is exactly what I am looking for. The Recall site was a nice bonus also.

Report back if you will what you found and pictures of it.

First, *awesome* info. You were right, the combo between CarGurus.com (which lets me really narrow down the search), and the VIN lookup were perfect, thanks!

I now having a different issue, and I'll open a separate thread on it to try to keep topics separated. But the issue is, I've looked at maybe 40 used trucks, from 2010 forward and not seen a single Aisin transmission.

But, this approach is very cool, thanks!

I used the "Equipment Listing" page for every vehicle that caught my eye while looking for my truck. I was on cars.com and autotrader daily. Ended up finding what I wanted on cars.com and turned out to be one without any pictures. I used to just scan right by them but the price caught my eye.
