Went to trade my 2016 Cummins for a 2017. Dealers Said it was only worth $30k on trade. I just bought it 10 months ago for $60k. Buy a used one or another brand. Should have kept my duramax which out pulled the ram.

This huge, swb, quad cab 4x4 is very powerful (around 400hp)& passes everything BUT A GAS STATION! I didn't want to pay the diesel price, so spent 50% less & bought this gas truck. 2nd thing is this truck is a rough riding truck. I pulled my 5th wheel with it just fine (12,500lb.). Moved up to 15000lb. 5th wheel & my mpg was down to 7 mpg! May as well have bought a Class A motorchome! Dealer called me after a service & asked if I wanted to trade it in. I brought it in with 35,000 orig. Mi. Excellent condition. & they gave me $24,000 trade-in on a rig I only paid $28,500 for. New 2019 Jeep Cherokee is my ride now. Loving the MPG, ride & comfort!.
