Positive Owner Reviews

Best truck I have ever owned. Automatic sliding back window.

My vehicle is very comfortable and is very smooth on the road. It has not had any mechanical issues. Ram is a name I trust. It starts with ease every time. It has lots of space and two glove compartments for storage plus the center console has lots of storage.

My vehicle,is great.My truck does its job,reliable and tough.Nothing I dislike about my truck.

Its reliable,never fails me.Well taken care of,and useful.

Trustworthy and dependable.

I have never had any problems with my truck, it has been very trustworthy and mechanically sound. It is very comfortable to drive and be a passenger. I always feel safe in it. The standard features are nice and simple but still look modern. Even though it is from 2013 I still feel like the stock features look up to date.

It's great go almost anywhere vehicle with excellent power and great performance.

It's a great vehicle. It's 4 wheel drive and has a powerful Hemi engine. Drives and rides great and can tow and/or haul very well.

The lines and details of the look.

My 2013 Ram 1500 is one of the best performing trucks out there. All the features and options are incredible. I would definitely recommend looking into a ram, you certainly wouldn't be disappointed. My four wheel drive is fun when I want to go camping or just cruise some trails off-road.

Lot of horsepower and extra features. Have had zero issues with it.

No complaints...live everything about it. Very happy.

There is nothing like a Dodge 4 wheel drive hemi truck.

I love my vehicle. It is very reliable, it is a limited edition big horn with heated seats and steering wheel. Auto start, it gets good gas mileage in town and on the highway just as long as the tires are properly inflated. It is a 4x4 with push button on the fly into 2 or 4 wheel. It has a regular plug outlet for me to plug in a computer, it has several lighter plugs in the front and back. In the center it has a CD player and 2 USB plugins, sim card insert. I haven't found anything that is uncomfortable about my truck. The back seating area has plenty of room to ride comfortable. It has a lot of power for towing and off-road driving. It rides smooth, you can't tell that your in a truck. The power it has I love. I pulled a few stumps out of the ground in my yard with it. The biggest one so far was about 3 feet round. I did have to cut a few roots but it had no problem or lack of power to do the job. I love my truck and every feature it has.

No problems within the 5 years except for the phone system.

Dealership can't repair the phone system in the truck. Reliable truck. Enjoy the comfort of the truck along with the sound system.

Trouble

My 2013 ram 1500 4.7 electronic throttle body control light is on lightening bolt

JoeyJohnston

Huge problems with the air ride suspension system

I bought a brand new 2013 dodge Ram sport with the air ride suspension system I bought the truck in May from Red water Dodge in Alberta as soon as the weather turned cold in October the truck sat down on its tires so I took it back to dodge they said they replaced a leaking valve and gave it back to me it worked for about a month because the weather warmed up but as soon as it got below minus 15 it did the same thing Itook it back they said they couldn't find anything wrong had it in half a dozen times while it was on warranty and Dodge just kept either jerry fixing it or just warming it up and give it back to me finally in 2016 after 3 years of begging Dodge to fix it because it's undrivable in the winter I put it in to dodge again and spent 6700 dollars and told them to fix everything on the truck the very next day I got back I went to go to work and the truck was sitting down on its tires again I took it back to them and they told me I needed a new pump but by then I didn't have any money left now in 2019 found out my Dad is dying of cancer and I had to move back to Ontario and my truck is undrivable so I begged Dodge and corporate Dodge to help me and they wouldn't even return my calls so I drove 4200 km back to my Dads with the truck riding on its tires the suspension system was faulty from day one and Dodge never honoured anything and turned their back on me it's been the worst experience of my life I paid 65000 dollars for this truck and for 6 years now I can't use it in the winter I'm Hamilton Ontario at my dad's place and I need to go to work to help him and my mom and I can't drive the truck because it's sitting down all the time now so I still make my monthly payments like I have done for the past 6 years sad how a big corporation like Dodge can take advantage of a blue collar working guy and rip him off because that's exactly what they did they are cruel and heartless and I will never forgive them and I would never recommend anyone to buy anything from Dodge .

Chrysler needs to fix there design flaws

Too many issues with this vehicle every time I turnaround something else. Had to have my 5.7 hemi cam and lifter replacement $ 3,000.00 now $75.00 for thermostat and coolant selling asap

Very expensive maintenance

No, ongoing power steering failures that dodge refuses to issue a recall for. Only dealer Carry's the unit. Part only is $2800. Repeated and ongoing issues with exhaust manifold bolts breaking which continues long after warranty expires.$500 repair bill per. Problems with warping to the aluminum heads. Also very expensive. Dodge also knows this results in the bolts failing but just keeps using those aluminum heads. Screw the buyer.

Junk on wheels, pray it moves.

Recall after recall after recall, And electrical issues are never ending, Transmission problems as well, I have never owned a new vehicle, after this experience, I am confident, I never will again, especially a Dodge product, I rely on this truck for work, sad I have no confidence, in it.

STAY AWAY FROM AIR SUPSENSION 2013 OR ANY OTHER YEAR....

I bought a slick 2013 all the extras black edition ram 1500 in august 2020. Things were fiine until things got cold. The truck had 106 000 km on it... It now has 108 000 kms on it because i haven't been able to drive it for the entire winter... The dealership has been making the same repairs for 3 months... It's unsafe to drive because you never know when you gonna have suspension or not... Two dealerships now in my area are slowing to step up due to them both working on the truck and can't get a solid success story. I would be cautious about anyone every entering this truck and model at this odometer level. So bummed cause it s a hot looking truck but i am so tired of dealership sales and parts staff tellling me that these trucks don't work in the winter in bc... Lol.. Thats something the sales guy never told me.

Reliability

Rate it less than 1 star! We have a 2013 and bought it used in 2018 and have had many issues but the biggest is that for whatever reason it randomly will not start? We have taken it in 3 times and even a dealer maintenance crew have no clue what the problem is! It is now useless if we cannot rely on it starting up at any given time - what a piece of junk and peaved the dealer services are just as usless!!!!

It gets me from place to place but is not something id get again.

I am not a huge fan of the ram and look often to trade it/get rid of it. There are lots of electrical problems, paint problems, and overall issues in general. I will say it is comfortable as a driver but I am just overall not a fan and wouldn't purchase another ram because of my poor quality with this one.

What Problems Does the 2013 Ram 1500 Have?

I haven't had any problems with my dodge. They are very reliable and easy to work on. We have had ours for over 2 years and haven't had a problem.

It is a very reliable car and I haven't had any issues with it the vehicle since I bought it a year ago.

The dodge ram truck has a few flaws. In haul weight capacity. But for the make year and model it is over a good truck.

Kristoffer R

It is reliable. I haven't had any problems out of mine. That goes to say that ram makes quality trucks.

What Technology & Safety Features are Included?

How Does the 2013 Ram 1500 Compare to Other Trucks?

Ranking 8^th out of 15 full-size trucks, based on owner reviews, the 2013 Ram 1500 series falls in the middle of the class.

The highest-rated half-ton truck is the more expensive Toyota Tundra. Where the Tundra stands out is with better reliability ratings, and a standard V8 engine with more power. Interior materials, technology, and towing capacity are all better in the Ram. Overall, both are good trucks, if you want a long-lasting daily driver the Tundra wins, but if you need to tow and haul a lot of weight, the Ram is a better choice.

A close competitor is the Ford F-150, which is also a more expensive truck. Where the Ford stands out is with a higher maximum towing capacity, and a longer-lasting engine. The cabin is much nicer in the Ram, with higher quality materials, and the suspension is smoother. Both are good half-ton trucks, and usually, the decision comes down to personal preference.

Ranks #8 Full Size Pickup Trucks by Owners

2013 Ford Super Duty F-250

Positives include a luxurious interior with a class-leading infotainment system, and a powerful and reliable Hemi V8.

Overall, the 2013 Ram 1500 series is a truck we recommend to shoppers looking for a budget-friendly option.

Destiny H on June 24, 2021

Why and how my truck is great.

It is a very nice vehicle I have had no problems out of it other than the 4 cylinder mode. It is by far the best vehicle I have owned yet. It rides very smooth and has so much room and so much storage space. The look of it is so sleek and aggressive. I highly recommend.

Stephanie M on June 17, 2021

It is a great durable stylish truck and does good on gas.

It has durability. Great for loading, moving, and towing. The hemi engine has a lot of power. It is a v8 but does not do too bad on gasoline. Smooth drive on the highways. It has power windows and locks and electric towing. There's an extra storage compartment under the front seat. It gives you the gas mileage on the dashboard. It has a digital speedometer as well.

Andy M on June 13, 2021

Converted ram fan for life.

Exhaust headers bolts sheared, required repair out of pocket due to being after warranty period. Other than that it has been a very reliable truck that hauled a 7,000 lb travel trailer cross country with no issues at all. I rode in the previous generation of ram and the gen 4 is so much better and quality keeps getting better.

Matt R on June 10, 2021

Drivetrain. Steering. Compacted. Power.

I drive a 2013 ram sport crew cab. It is very comfortable leather/cloth seats. In the winter time I have heaters in the seats and a steering wheel warmer as well. The drive is nice, I run 35' tires and 20' rims. The 4x4 is very nice in the pickup, no problems driving with it or not. It's very spaceship for my family. The back seats flip up for more storage for any kind of shopping or moving stuff to a new location. Overall I rate my pickup 10 out of 10.

Casey B on June 1, 2021

Great for towing and family use.

Great for towing and family use. Has a lot of power but fuel mileage suffers. Color is great. Heated seats and steering wheel are nice. Has a ton of storage. Seems built well. Sounds awesome. The family really likes it so far. I hope it is my truck for the next 8-10 years.

William S on May 29, 2021

It has 2 small compartments in the back under the floorboards.

Zero problems. Great on gas would def buy another one. I have been to Cooperstown 2 and Florida 8 times. Very comfortable for the long and short trips. I have the 6 foot bed that is perfect for the hauling I like to do. U cannot change the transmission oil yourself.

Mark S on May 23, 2021

Ram 1500. Comfort reliability and power.

The ram 1500 crew cab is a comfortable ride with a lot of space in the cab. It does everything I need it to do from hauling to pulling I have never been concerned about if it was going to run. The tradesman does not have a lot of features other than the basic windows, locks. It does have a backup camera and I love the floor storage in the back seat area. The only thing I really feel I am missing is a power seat.

Javier S on May 16, 2021

Great truck for the outdoors and family vacations.

This is a great truck. It is very spacious and drives well. It handles amazing and can go through many different types of terrain. The 4wd model works great and it's good to have when you need it. The truck has a great digital setup and has easy to read gauges and speedometer.

Nick M on May 10, 2021

All in all I do not hate the truck but I do wish it were cheaper to fix/ maintain.

I have had this vehicle for a few months now, haven't had too many issue but when I did it was costly. Ram 1500 has a hemi and is expensive to maintain and fix. Power steering went and it wasn't just fluid you could replace it is the whole drive shaft, seems senseless to me.

Will W on May 10, 2021

Sturdy yet comfortable. Good value for not a lot of money. Lots of power.

This truck is durable and gets the job done. It has a roomy interior that is comfortable on longer trips. It also has a lot of room for storage under the back seats. It has a smooth ride and I have taken the family on a couple of trips over two hours one way with no complaints. Has plenty of power to boot.

JoeyJohnston on May 3, 2021

Huge problems with the air ride suspension system

Michael E on May 3, 2021

My vehicle is comfortable and reliable.

My vehicle is very comfortable and has most of every features I would need. Main thing it's missing is a backup camera. It's very reliable so far only have done oil changes and minor maintenance. Its very capable for winter driving but the gas mileage is subpar

Bill W on April 23, 2021

Nice comfortable truck that meets my needs.

Smooth ride, comfortable even when travelling. Some engine noise, but after 7 years old. Rugged and descent size payload. Does have some recalls, but relatively minor issues. Gets the job done for all of my needs. I would buy again in the future. It seems better than previous years for rust issues.

Tina S on April 21, 2021

Very durable and functional.

I had my truck a year and it was struck by lightning. Up until that point, I had no issues with the vehicle whatsoever. Now, heated steering wheel does not work. But again this truck survived a lightning strike! Performance is amazing. Quick pick up to pass on highway. Leather and loaded on the inside. One of the nicest trucks I have ever owned. For a 2013, it has just under 60,000. I do not see me replacing it anytime soon.

A.j W on April 1, 2021

My RAM is great for hauling, towing and snow.

I love the interior with the layout and entertainment system. The truck is much more responsive and has more power than the Ford f150 that I owned last. I have only had routine maintenance with the tune up being the most expensive due to the hemi have 16 spark plugs. The ride is great and I love the heated seats and steering wheel in the winter. I have never had any problems in the snow or with the roads in my area that flood during high tide.

Jason P on March 30, 2021

Ram 1500, best truck I have ever owned!

This is the most comfortable and reliable vehicle I have ever owned and I have owned a lot of trucks! All around, best truck ever. Mine has the "sport" trim on it and I get comments from people quite often telling me that it is a great looking truck. That is not the most important thing to me but it is a bonus!

Randall G on March 29, 2021

It has speed to burn and is fun to drive.

4 wheel drive quad cab with a hemi motor that has pulling power and great pick up with room for passengers.

David R on March 21, 2021

That it's reliable and trustworthy. And is very sleek looking

I like that it's reliable. I like that it has four wheel drive.

Stevan G on March 20, 2021

Overall great trucks. Extremely comfortable and well built.

The only problems I have had with my truck is a leaking roof seal and the tailgate latches. It is been a great truck otherwise.The 4.7 liter v8 is nice but could use a little more power. The interior is nice and comfortable. Overall this has been a great truck and I highly recommend ram trucks to anyone that wants style and comfort.

Jonathan D on March 16, 2021

My Ram's overall performance and everyday use.

It is an amazing truck. It has some rust issues developing on some outer panels, but most trucks have the same problems. I love the power engine and the four wheel drive. I often take the truck off-road. During the winter months, it is nice knowing that I have the four wheel option.

Kimberly A on March 15, 2021

Ram 1500 tradesman edition with Ram boxes.

None truck no mechanical problems would recommend buying a Dodge Ram 1500 pick up to everyone. Dealer has always been great. All around very happy with the truck. Great warranty. Great vehicle all the way around.

Justin C on March 14, 2021

Tons of room and storage!

The vehicle is extremely reliable. There is a ton of room on the interior and tons of storage (both compartments and under-the-mat / under-the- seat storage). I love the comfort and style of the ram 1500. The only opportunity on my model is to add a backup camera. Since the vehicle is so large it is hard to park, especially for someone like myself living downtown.

Jackson C on March 14, 2021

Best truck on the market today.

My RAM 1500 is amazing and I wouldn't have any other truck brand. It is dependable and has been nothing but good to me. If I was a future truck buyer I would most definitely go with ram. Not only are they the best looking but they are the most smoothest driving and most comfortable truck on the market today. If your going to buy and truck. Buy a ram.

James H on March 12, 2021

My review of my. Ram 1500 big horn.

I love my ram 1500. I always wanted to get a Chevy as my first truck but after owning and driving my truck, I have fell in love and will always be a ram guy. I love the style and power of this truck. I have also turned numerous people away from Chevy and they gave ram a try and now 3 of them have bought new ram trucks.

Benton C on March 11, 2021

A lowered ram drive review.

Have had only minor issues. Only have had some rattles in the dash. But no other problems, been reliable for 124k+ miles. Haven't had to repair anything, but will need to do some exhaust manifold bolts but this happens a lot on Hemis. Comfort is good, I lowered mine and right quite alright.

Donald H on March 10, 2021

It is reliable and has a lot of power

I like the Hemi engine. I like the decent gas mileage. I do not like how much they charge for the navigation system

Dallas Dillon on March 9, 2021

Chrysler needs to fix there design flaws

Too many issues with this vehicle every time I turnaround something else. Had to have my 5.7 hemi cam and lifter replacement $ 3,000.00 now $75.00 for thermostat and coolant selling asap

Vic W on March 9, 2021

Looking for a tough truck.

I have had minimal issues with this vehicle. Gas mileage is not great but it is a v8. This is a two wheel drive truck. Good base truck with lots of room. Have used it for family vacation trips. Color is good. Paint is good. Added a bedliner, step bars. Added bad cover and custom floor mats, seat covers and bug guard.

McKenzie V on March 8, 2021

Reliable and smooth riding truck.

I think the truck is very nice and reliable, I just wish that the big horn would come leveled with the rear end so it is equal in height from front to back, the interior is very nice it took me awhile to get used to the knob as a shifter and not having the shift on or near the steering wheel, the truck also has a surprising amount of room and well in the front not so much in the back is you have people riding with you, other than that I think the truck is very nice.

shuniah on March 1, 2021

STAY AWAY FROM AIR SUPSENSION 2013 OR ANY OTHER YEAR....

Kelly G on February 28, 2021

It is excellent on gas for a very large truck. I find that it is economical for our family to keep it gassed up.

This is the third Ram we have owned, and this one has a Hemi and is much better on gas than the previous two. I love that we can haul things, like furniture purchases, and not have to pay additional charges for shipping. It is roomy and our family fits very comfortably.

Chris W on February 21, 2021

2013 ram 1500 Laramie with air ride suspension.

Hemi tick, air ride suspension are both issues I have had. Ram was terrible in taking care of me and I had to fight them. I still really like my truck. It is plenty quick and serves my purpose. It worked well as I was cleaning up after hurricane Harvey.

Trevor T on February 21, 2021

Between the ram boxes, and air ride suspension what more could you want.

It is by far my favorite vehicle. It comes equipped with air ride suspension, rides smoother than anything I have ever owned. The 5.7 hemi is just a joy to listen to. Quite when at an idle, but purrs when you put your foot into it. Comes with about every feature you could want. Some examples are heated/cooled seats, sun/moonroof, heated steering wheel, 4+ different modes on the air ride suspension.

Kaylee F on February 21, 2021

2013 four-door dodge ram truck.

It is great in the reliability category, and drives very smooth! The inside is comfortable and spacious. We use this truck to tow our two horse bumper pull and it has never had any issues hauling and it has been hauling for years with no maintenance issues. Gas gets a little pricey, but compared to some newer model trucks it seems to last a little longer as it has a very large tank. The only issue I have ever had with it was the heat not working for a short time, but it was easily fixed in the shop and I have had no other issues with it. It is a great truck!

Rockie B on February 21, 2021

It has air ride suspension.

The air ride suspension sometimes freezes up in the winter time. It gets decent fuel mileage, usually 25 mpg on the highway, 20 mpg in town. I have owned it since 2013 and haven't had any major issues with it. There have been a few recalls on it, and I have had to replace a fuel pump on it, but no real other issues.

Shirley C on February 21, 2021

It is terrible in snow and it gets stuck easy.

I like the size of the cab. I do not like that it's not a 4 wheel drive. The way it drives and being able to pull the camper is nice. I do not like the gas mileage.

Vincent N on February 19, 2021

Dodge ram tradesman - is this the right truck for you?

The driver and front passenger seats are extremely comfortable and spacious. The back seat is a bench seat and is comfortable but it does not provide as much room as a 1500 fill can would provide. Gas mileage averages about 14 miles per gallon. The 4.7 liter v8 offers good power but lacks acceleration burst. Overall this is a great work truck but lacks some bells and whistles that could be had with different model ram's.

Jeffery T on February 17, 2021

That it fits 6 people easily with plenty of room.

I love to jail things in on trips or work around house. It sits up high so easy to see. It gets dissent has mileage. I love driving my truck it fits 6 people easily.

Dj J on February 15, 2021

Awesome truck, will definitely buy another ram truck.

Drives nice, very comfortable, good on gas, jumps a little to the side on big bumps, would buy another ram in the future, good engine, reclining seats, power windows, rear window is nice to have. Great pick up when accelerating. Nice brakes, two glove compartments, big ashtray for storage.

camilo P on February 14, 2021

It has a great 5.7 engine and the ride is still incredible.

I bought the truck brand new and until now, it works perfect. I guess it depends on how the owner takes care of his things and I have done a great job. I will buy ram again because to me it's a great vehicle and can't go wrong. The only thing that I had to change was a seatbelt sensor but other than that, it has worked perfectly.

Rhonda A on February 11, 2021

Reliable, curable, looks good and smooth driving. Lots of get up and go.

Love this vehicle. Have never had any major issues with this or previous vehicle which was also a ram 1500. Just couple of minor recalls. Very comfortable, lots of horsepower.

It is built to be tough and durable; tows well and has a great design/body look.

I like the power that my vehicle has; it accelerates quickly and has enough power that I can tow a boat, trailer, or any other item that I need to. I like the outside design and interior space as well.

2013 ram 1500 highlights.

My 2013 ram 1500 is great. The only problems that I have had were related to recalls. The ride is a little rough, but for a truck it rides great. It has a backup camera. This helps with hooking a trailer to the truck and for parallel parking. All in all a great truck.

The large seating in the back seats our 3 kids comfortably

We love our Ram it's always been reliable. I love the large TV screen in the console, I think the seating is very roomy and very comfortable. The truck works as a work car or a family car in our case and is very easy to operate and utilize all features

Dodge ram 1500 single cab trucks.

Ram 1500 slt is a great all around truck. The hemi has more than enough power to pull a trailer or a mid size RV. Great on fuel on the highway, the interior is just right for me and my wife to travel in and very comfortable. Have not really had any problems with it,I have replaced the water pump, but it lasted almost to 100,000 miles, so I can't complain.

I give my Ram truck 5 gold stars.

My Dodge truck is a really nice truck. It has a lot of power as well. It does have a small lift on it which I love. I wish the wheels were better. I could use a bit more room in the back seat. But other than that I have no complaints. This is my first Dodge and I am liking it so far. We usually are Chevrolet people but I love this truck.

Do a lot of background searching on the vehicle.

I love the fuel economy and the get up and go. The looks of the truck is what made us want to buy. I hate that everything on the truck is breaking.

My truck is just a basic cloth interior with no DVD player and power windows.

This truck has been very reliable ever since I owned it. Common repairs such as wiper blade replacement, new battery, tires has all I ever did, besides changing the oil change. I am going on two hundred thousand miles on it still runs like the day I purchased it.

The truck is not stock. I have a lot of upgrades to make it a more efficient.

This ram 1500 is a great vehicle. Never had problems owning it. The truck has about 100,000 miles, but have never had problems. The luxury of the vehicle is just as good as most modern cars because of the trim level. The dodge ram 1500 is a truck to have for its price and reliability.

Great power at the best price.

Super comfortable, plenty of room and I am 6 foot 300 lbs. Pulls good. Great power. Love the Bluetooth and speakers. It's black with black leather. It has a bedliner. I put 35' tires with aftermarket black rims. Upgraded the exhaust system. Pulled a bumper pull trailer with ease.
