Smoking & Burning Oil at 8800 miles

I have the 2014 Ram 1500 BigHorn Crew Cab with the 5.7L Hemi. I purchased it new and have approximately 8800 miles on the truck. If the vehicle sits more than 30 minutes, when I start it I get a huge puff of blue smoke and there is carbon/soot all in both tail pipes. The brand new Hemi is clearly burning oil. Either I got a lemon, or you should stay away from this gigantic hunk of junk!! Ram has been incredibly defensive and hard to work with so far. Biding my time and following the process to solidify my lemon law claim if they don't step up. Update: About two months after I wrote this review, and after four attempts to correct the problem (including rebuilding the top side of the engine) the manufacturer finally accepted my lemon Law claim and swapped the truck for a new 2015 of the same trim package. This new one now has 36,400 miles and is going strong.

I should be doing a commercial for Arrigo as this is the 6 vehicle I have purchased from them in 8 years. I had a 06 Ram 1500. Traded it for a 09 Ram 1500. I didn't like the truck. Loved the way it looked, hated the way it road. Talked to John Arrigo during my first oil change and I ended up buying a new (leftover) 08 3500 Diesel Dually. Loved the truck but wasn't using it for the things it was intended for enough. Sold it. Just purchased this truck a few months ago. Got the basic Tradesman with the 5.7 liter Hemi. Great truck! Pulls my 6x12 enclosed trailer with my HD Road King and gear like nothing is behind it at all. Quiet, well put together and made for work.

Very comfortable ride, treat the pedal lightly and mileage is pretty good even in town.

Bought a 2104 big horn with ram boxes new. 4 years and 86k later and i still love it. Great in all weather, drives like a tank in the snow, and a muscle car in the sun. Only regret is that it doesnt have a moon roof. Uconnect system is a piece of crap, but manageable. Tends to freeze from time to time, but works with a little patience.

Ram has come along way from what it used to be. I’m coming from a 2012 f150 loaded fx4 packedge to a 14 ram big horn. Quality is night and day difference ford had way too many bugs every time there was something going wrong and was all known issues. Traded in the f150 for a used 14 ram big horn and could not be happier with the service and quality of the truck only issue I’ve had is exaust studs break but have been fixed by dealer with no issue under warranty
