It's too bad that great Cummins engine comes wrapped in a Dodge. At 90 plus thousand miles and after a lot of maintenance my Dodge is falling apart around the Cummins and this is a 2010 "New" body style.

What were/are the problems? Did RAM fix them?

98 RAM bought because of the Cummins figured the truck would fall apart, 400K and still rock solid.

50k on 2011 Dually no issues except crappy General POS tires.

Ditto,
Our 2001 2500 with 274,000 miles is still solid. Drives great with normal maintance.
To the what if the trailer brakes frail? Well new Cummins have the best EB of the big three, I seldom use my service brakes during normal towing,
Really hate to tell you but a semi loaded to 105,000# the two or three axle brakes are not going to much good either!!!

Check the trailer brakes before you leave. If they die I have an awesome EB and service brakes!
