Buying the 2009 Dodge Ram
No 2009 Dodge Ram is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. This page puts the 2009 Dodge Ram in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.
A buyer's checks
In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. 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. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
Under the hood
The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.
Living with the Ram
As a car, it is easy to drive and park in the city.
Good uses for the Ram
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
A longer test drive
A week with the Ram answers more than any brochure. Drive the Ram on your commute before you commit to it. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Ram answers the big questions.
What it costs to run
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. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Choosing the right one
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
Questions first?
Ask us anything about renting before you buy.
Rent it for a week before you buy

Buying the 2009 Dodge Ram
Does CarmaCars sell the 2009 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 2009 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 2009 Dodge Ram have recalls?
NHTSA lists 11 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.
