Bought the base tradesman model with the upgraded electronics package making it more like an SLT on the interior. integrated brake controller is awesome and everything continues to work as it should. This was one of the first years with the spring suspension in the rear and it has held up to all towing and payload requirements without blinking. The ride quality is still a 3/4 ton but far superior to the other rams with springs in the rear. If you don't need the extra payload of the leafs then personally i would stick with the springs for daily ride quality. The only time i have seen the distance between my bed and tire gap shrink is with one of my 1950's era steel equipment trailers which is none too light in the hitch weight department. overall tows well - nice and smooth - though if you live in a word of elevation changes my guess is you would be disapointed with high speed towing as the engine really needs to work at high speeds to get up hills and maintain a set speed. It still does the job but it is working hard. flat and mild elevation towing with no hassle. towing mirrors add great visibility - i can park this easier than my daily driver. Factory tires are marginal. headlights dim. easily dents and scratches. mechanically rock solid. 4x4 low is awesome for heavy duty truck work. stock front bumper accepts the powerwagon winch kit without modification. bought mine new in 2014 with solid factory incentives and i can still trade it in for more than i owe on it. even though i knew better i got suckered into adding extra warranties at the last minute - money wasted - the truck has had no issues despite being put through a great deal of abuse. Makes my dad angry that my little gas engine can out tow his mid 00's diesel.

Truck now has 109,000 miles on it and it has left me on the side of the road 3 times. Been on the back of a roll back 3 times. Replace the transmission at 93,000 which was $7,000. Replaced both from wheel hubs. Been the the dealer ship countless times for recalls. The fuel mileage isn’t great. Power steering pump leaks. Replaced the steering whee controls. Replace the transmission lines because they were leaking.

Bought this truck new, I have had numerous recalls, one still waiting for resolution from Chrysler, 7 transmission leaks, each time it's something different. Contacted Chrysler, they call within days of repair, asking if it was completed and if I am happy, it usually take a week for the leak to appear, they just want to close the issue and move on, it is rediculus, i will never by a Chrysler product again, they should have bought the truck back, by the way it has the 6.4 Hemi

This truck far out performs my 6.0L Ford

Love this truck, pulls great, rides great, much better mileage then my previous trucks. Update April 2019 still no problems truck is good, but it does seem the computer flash recalls have degraded my gas mileage. Some of the plastic around the center console is soft and the chrome scratches off easy. The cruise control button you have to hit sometimes dozen our more time before it starts to work especially when its cold. After it finally comes on it will work with no issues. This truck is a diesel not sure why it says gas V8 at the top.

I still love this truck. At 102,350 miles it still works day or night. The interior still looks like new, the paint still looks great. (Truck has never been parked inside.) the only flaw I’ve had is around 101,245 miles the “Y” pipe on the upper radiator hose developed a small crack and had to be replaced. No other problems or complaints.
