The Cummin's and the Mega Cab.

2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 Review:
Truck would be better if I could take the ride of my Ford Lariat, the smooth manual trans from my Dakota, and the COLD a/c from our Lexus.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
I like the smooth powerful Cummins engine, and 6 speed manual trans. Great towing truck.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Better interior ventilation. One has to crack a window to allow the AC or heater to work at full efficiency.
Better available axle gearing. This truck is capable of 25 mpg+ if it had proper gearing, and still lots of power.
Better suspension that is not as upset over ruts.
2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 Review:
This Ram is the best overall truck I've owned. Looks good, Drives good and runs good.
I'd buy another one if it had better gearing.

I know many mentioned that it's not good, but it's 2 1/2 mpg better than my 1/2 ton Ford was...and twice the truck!

6 speed auto would be nice...a little smoother ride too.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
Great diesel power, good ride quality and much nicer interior.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500?
A five speed automatic and a bit less interior plastic.
2006 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 Review:
Much nicer than previous 3500. Great towing capability and much smoother and controlled ride quality. The interior is a great deal better and a nice place to take a long ride. A Cummins diesel is a Cummins diesel--a truly built from the bottom up REAL diesel. None finer!!!
