Vehicle is not dependable. Had problems from day one through day 6. Returned it to the dealer on day 6 because it had 3 different mechanical failures.

The new cummins is really quite and the power is magnificent. Pulls 9000 lbs horse trailer and horses at 70 MPH up hills with ease. The turning radius is great. It is fun to drive. The Jacob exhaust break really helps on the hills to slow down. Wish it had the cummins 600 in it.

Dodge Hemi

The hemi engine is awesome. It has great power for a gas engine and decent fuel economy. The chime that dings when you don't fasten your seat belt drives me nuts. I snowplow, go back and forth to my shop, etc. I wear it on the road. The trailer mirrors are to wide-I only have about 3" to spare backing into my garage and I hit them when snowplowing close to items. Other than that, its a great truck.

Comfortable and solidly built, I love this truck. Powerful, and quick, the Hemi is a fun engine. Transmission is strong and smooth.

I bought it used with 60k miles. Not many used out there, then or now with the Cummins. Automatic has been great. Ride is a little stiff, but it's a real truck, 2500. Had the 1/2 ton,1997, gas, Dodge, no comparison. Now have 138k miles, looking at going with a chip. I run 185/70/17s, get 19.4 mpg, at 71mph. city/hwy average 17.6, no load, with bed cover. City and 6x12 box trailer milage 13.2. With trailer and these tires, running around town its a little weak, time to chip.Maintenance has been low, very few problems. Get the Laramie, it's worth it, you will appreciate them, I know I do.
