First vehicle I ever bought. Family has always owned Dodge with no problems. I have owned the vehicle for 7 mo and has been in the shop 7 times (mainly due to unreliable technicians). I have a squeek in the dash and passanger door that just wont go away. Recenly the bed of the pickup is offset from the passanger compartment. Also, after 2 hrs of driving the MDS doesn't know what to do (vehicle is constantly surging with the flucuating RPM's).

For 3.7 liter v6/ 6sp 3.21 rearend it has been a really good and reliable pu. Purchase the 2008 in 2010 with 39,000 miles on it. 5000 miles maintenance with Mobi1. Only repairs was a water pump in 2019 @125,000 miles, tires 35,000 or so depending on make of tire, second battery. The down side is 13 miles / gallon on unleaded. Tried super with octane boost 14 .5 miles. In all its a great truck. One day down the road when the v6 can no longer travel the roads will be looking at the 5.9/v8 swap or L31 5.7/v8 SWAP. BUT WHICH ever engine will have to be an equal 1cid /1 hp. 350cid/350 hp or 360 cid/ 360hp. Or something in that order.

It's a Hemi

After 18 years and the price of diesel going through the roof, I purchased a new 4wd 1500 Laramie loaded. The truck arrived right on time and the dealer gave me the ttx rail tracking numbers to follow my truck from the plant to the showroom. With just under 10,000 miles, I have had no problems with the exception of a after market item which produced a squeak which was quickly fixed. As a 20 year person going back to a gas was tough but with this hemi oh what a ride. Smooth riding, excellent handling, corners great on pavement or gravel. If you keep your foot out of it, and shut off the od in mountains and traffic the mpg improves. Verdict I'm glad I got a dodge hemi.

I purchsed the Dodge during a snow storm and thought I would have to drive very carefully on my way home but with the ESP (electronic stability System), it was almost impossible to get the wheels to break loose. My kids fight over the front seat because of the heated seat feature. I really like the styling and you can't beat the power.
