Super truck. Lots of interior room and conviences. Hemi engine is awesome. Poor gas mileage. Ride is somewhat jittery. Interior and exterior quality, fit and finish is excellent. Dealer is the best I have experienced. NO hassle, a straight forward deal. This is the second new Chrysler product I have owned. The first was a 1958 Plymouth convertable. The engine, interior room and cab features sold me. The dealer approach was low key and honest.

My truck has lasted me for near a decade with minimal repairs in the first 6 years of ownership. As the truck aged, it started to need certain items fixed/replaced. The HEMI is great. I have hauled between 500 and 1800 pounds and towed 8,000 pounds(max) using this truck and the engine never felt over-worked or under-powered. I'm not overtly impressed with the electronic systems (BCM/fuse box) issues I've had or the tie rod ends that need regular replacement. Overall, this truck has been used for a truck and did what it was intended for with minor reliability or mechanical issues to speak of. Update: Sold this truck at 190,000 miles. I work with the gentleman I sold it to and he has breached 200,000 miles in under a year. To my knowledge the truck hasn't given him any issues yet. I'm happy to see that old truck on the road.

I WISELY ordered the Hemi motor and it makes all the difference in the world. My previous vehicle got 18 mpg, so my Hemi costs me about a buck a day more to drive. I smile a lot on the drive home no matter what happened that day. The truck is well put together and the 4 doors work great when hauling a crew. The guys howl when I twist the Hemi's tail and make it growl. Best truck I evered owned. Every time I pass a Dodge, we check each other out for the Hemi emblem. Ok, enough about the engine. This is a good truck in every way. Bottom line, don't hesitate to buy this truck, especially with the deals being offered out there.

This is the first vehicle that I have ever been involved with for this long and I have had absolutely zero defects whatsoever. Truly amazing. The only fault I can find with with this truck is the gas mileage, but given the power and torque it has, I guess I shouldn't complain about that. I did'nt buy it going in with the expectation of great gas mileage.
Ok-ok:(-:)
