The 2006 Dodge Ram for buyers

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2006 Dodge Ram for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. The 2006 Dodge Ram for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.

A buyer's checks

There are 8 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Owners filed 287 complaints with NHTSA, most often about steering, electrical system and exterior lighting; have those parts checked. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.

What the specs mean

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.

How big it is

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. NHTSA lists it at 5.79 m long. Measure your parking spot or garage first.

A longer test drive

Rent the Ram for a week and see how it fits your life. Try the Ram on your commute, then decide. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Ram answers the big questions.

Choosing the right one

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

The cost of driving it

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

When you know your dates

A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2006 Dodge Ram from us first.
