Great truck, no disappointments
Just bought my dream truck, after 14 years of waiting. The truck was priced cheaper in dollar terms, than what it would have cost me to purchase in 1998, when I commissioned in the Army (30k v. 33k). Glad I got the 6.7, it has been great, so far (averaging 19 mpg, lots of HP and torque). A little bit less miles per gallon than the 5.9, but with a few upgrades (Royal Purple synthetic oil increased 1-2 mpg, and hoping Banks air kit increases another 2 mpg), hoping to catch the 5.9. Also, went with quad-cab SB, not mega, as turn radius and parking were so much better. Lots of power, and manual transmission and jake brake novelty haven't worn off (4000 miles on truck).
Crap
I have had this truck for 6,000 miles and now on my 3rd oil change. I just got it back from the dealer because of of exhaust build up and they had to change out the turbo and the sensors. A service person gave me the lemon law paperwork and told me to keep a copy of all of the work orders and they would see me in a few weeks to fix it again. Not what I wanted to hear after just getting a new truck.

I’ve owned my 08’ 2500 4x4 mega cab for a year now
And here I found my Dodge I have had to not only replace the steering box the headlights and the power steering pump and several other parts for this year I have had major hard times trying to buy certain parts. Like the power steering pump pulley no auto shops have access to it for a part that cost maybe $20 for every other make and model and year I paid 300 for and had to wait about a week and a half to get it from clear across the United States from where I live. The bolts for the power steering box gearbox the old one didn’t have the right ones on it I had to go to a boat factory because none of the auto shops had access to these bolts. I love my truck as far as the room goes but I will never own another touch again.I am so I’m impressed with the parts availability for my truck that it makes me sick. Not only that but there’s several little problems with it I’m not afford girl but they’re looking better than Dodge at this point

Best Overall Value
My wife and I just got back from a 10 year anniversary trip to Kauai, Hawaii and were put into a 2008 Toyota Corolla rental car. First we were surprised by the fuel efficiency but when we returned home to our 2008 Dodge Ram hemi we realized that there was no comparison in the overall value. The comfort and utility was such a contrast to what we had rented that we both were very grateful we had made the right decision for our active family of four. Everywhere we drive we get nods of approval and our truck has gotten us safely through rugged Lake Tahoe winters and roads that the little Corolla couldnt dream of.
Exceeded my expectations
Picked this up with less than 100 miles on it and have put 1,500 on it so far. Fuel economy for highway driving averaged 24.7 mpg for the first 1,400. I have no complaints and it exceeds my expectations in every category. I enjoy the jake brake and like the way it works.
