window noise

The rear windows on this model(Outdoorsman) seem to be loose. When they are partially down and driving there is a very loud bothering noise. I took it to the dealership. They said this normal for this model and year. I have owned F150s and a Frontier and never had this problem. Is anyone else having the issue?

This is pure American muscle. If you like power, reliability, comfort, mad swag, and POWER this is the truck for you. Accelerates like a sports car with the 5.7L Hemi, which means it get to 60+ mph REAL FAST. Purchased new for $18,500 (~$22,500 after tax/reg. and a 7 yr./100K mi. warranty). After 2.5 years and 35,000 mi., it still runs and feels like new. I've taken it cross-county on business with no problems. The exterior design induces countless head-turns on the regular by truck lovers of all types. The interior is spacious. There's plenty of room for attractive shotgun-riders.

The Big Horn Edition is amply equipped for comfort ...aaand use. I've added and upgraded a few things (by choice) which has only enhanced my love for my Ram! Except for the city MPG no complaints but it's a HEMI so what do you expect!

I purchased my 2012 Ram 1500 4WD Lone Star truck in January 2013. I also purchased the Max Care Warranty with unlimited mileage coverage and no time limitations from date of purchase. At 170,000 miles this truck runs, rides and still looks like new. The paint and interior show no signs of aging. The engine and transmission continue to perform as expected with two repairs being made to the engine covered under MaxCare. Since those repairs at dealer no issues. The truck drives and handles like new. Couldn't have asked for a better truck.

So far so good

Bought the 2012 3 days ago against father and friends recommendations. So far so good. I love it! Everything I wanted in a truck and more. Although it's only been 3 days I feel like the truck will last forever. The interior is amazing, the looks just say muscle. It has 63000 miles and the fact I'm the third owner somewhat worries me but it hasn't disappointed me at all.
