Its the Little Things!

Great BIG true truck! Great gas mileage with the diesel. Very comfortable. I'm 6'4" 290 and it's still roomy for me. The only problem I am having is with the Uconnect app on my phone and its interaction with the Pandora app in the truck. It keeps disconnecting and not recognizing the app on my phone. 6 calls to Customer Service and still not working.

This truck never gave me any problems. I only had to replace the batteries. I always got compliments on the truck. My family was sad when I traded it in. I needed a tax write off this year with a major expense. I know this truck would served me for many more years.

The Ram has a 68RFE transmission and it is known to have a bad valve body that leaks fluid and pressure into the overdrive circuit. It only shows up when you have a big load on the truck. when it does mess up you are stuck in 3rd gear. Problem will not show up on a typical test drive. I have the Cummins 6.7 in mine but it was not an option when I did the review.
