What to check on the Ram Van 2500
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
What the specs mean

Who the Ram Van 2500 suits

How big it is
A tall roof and wide doors make it easy to load people and bags.
Try before you buy
If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent the Ram Van 2500 for a week and see how it fits your life.
Which one to look for
Within the 2003 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
