Crude, but tough. Seats wore quickly and interior features compare to a 1990 Chevrolet. Dash cracked within the first two years. No mechanical problems. Average fuel milage for the 5.9 is about 11 MPG.

I started having problems right after the warrenty expired. The dealer is not interested in fixing. Dodge is not interested in fixing. These trucks have bad transmissions & lift pumps. My lift pump went out at 66K miles & destroyed the injection pump. $4000 later it is running again. Now the tranny & ball joints are going out. Buy a horse, you will get farther down the road.

3 weeks & $1,800 dollars to fix a cam sensor and bad ECM, the was told my transfer case was full of metal shavings and needed replaced: $2,000. Not bad for a truck only 2 years old and with 60K miles. I think I'm about to become a Chevy man!

I had problems with the oil sending unit which Dodge would not or could not fix. Nor would they acknowledge the problem. Since Dodge showed no interest in customer service or retention, I am now a proud owner of a New F250. The brake system and noise in the steering colunm are also a concern. Although Dodge did acknowledge the steering column problem, they refuse to notify current and future owners of the problem or simply recall the defect. As it was explained to me, the noise is a result of faulty spacers in the steering column.
Fun at first..

The truck was great for the first 6 years. I had one minor air conditioning repair at around the 2nd year. Then everything started falling apart. The AC began spewing out stinky liquid so the heater core had to be replaced, then the car wouldn't shift out of 2nd without manipulating the gas pedal so the solenoids in the transmission had to be replaced. I pull a 8000lb horse trailer a dozen times a year and when the truck is behaving, she pulls great. I don't think she liked being a commute vehicle.. sitting in bay area traffic I'm sure contributed to the wear and tear. The next truck I get I'm buying will definitely be a 4x4!! I got her stuck more than once.
