Which version of rails are you using? Rails 3 is far far superior to rails 2.x in my experience.
In addition, does the rails model fit your needs? Rails is there to be able to roll out a clean, well structured, well tested CRUD application - it's certainly not a "I win" button.
I'd wager that if you find you're using essay-like queries, either you've missed a trick, or rails isn't a great fit for your application.
