I can understand steering being heavy. But this had a sort of skip to it. I looked up stock pics and tires look ok. Guy says he does not even notice it. Maybe its just me?
While my steering is heavy, I've never noticed any skip or stutter to it. I wonder if the belt was loose. I've had vehicles in the past do that. Have a mechanic or at least someone mechanically inclined look at it. You can also check for any trouble codes. Most OBD II vehicles, you have to use a reader. Mopars though, can still use the same process as the older OBD I cars.
With the truck shut off, turn the key on, off, on, off, on. Do NOT bump the starter and leave the key on the third time. Watch the odometer readout on the speedometer. It will either say "no code" or will show any codes in the computer.
