Auto loans: the 2004 Dodge Ram

No 2004 Dodge Ram is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Buying the 2004 Dodge Ram is a big decision; here is the information we have.

Before you sign for the Ram

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.

The figures, translated

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

Space and size

As a car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. With a length of 5.27 m, it counts as long. Measure your parking spot or garage first.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

A longer test drive

A test week in the Ram tells you more than any review. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. If the Ram is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.

What it costs to run

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.

Which one to look for

Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

When you know your dates

Tell us the model and the dates, and we reply with an offer.

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 2004 Dodge Ram from us first.

Buying the 2004 Dodge Ram

Does CarmaCars sell the 2004 Dodge Ram?

Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.

Can I rent a 2004 Dodge Ram before I buy one?

Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.

Does the 2004 Dodge Ram have recalls?

NHTSA lists 5 recall campaigns for it, in the table on this page. Ask for proof each was fixed.

Where do the figures come from?

Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
