Bought mine new and transport new travel trailers from the manufacturers to dealerships with it to the tune of 340,000 miles. Women like driving these because they're so refined quiet & smooth like a luxury car. If she is shorter she will like the optional air suspension that lowers the truck for easy entry and easy loading of the bed.
The transmission is fantastic it has reset the bar. The engines have had some failures. It's a legitimate concern. That said the powertrain warranty is 100,000 miles and if it were to fail ram gives you a brand new engine. I like this much better than stuffing new parts in an used motor. As with any new diesel emissions are a concern if you don't regularly work the truck and have a very short commute. Many myself included have had great luck with a tune that essentially shuts the EGR off. You can find good information over at ram1500diesel.com.
EDIT. Wow I only saw to where first guy asked to hear from owners until after I posted this.
