I bought a new 2015 Ram 2500 Big Horn with the 6.7 CTD. Absolutely the best truck I've ever owned! It now has 77k miles on it. I previously had a Ford Excursion with the 7.3 Powerstroke and was concerned about having to go to a heavy-duty pickup and a spine-jarring ride. The 2015 2500 was the first year for the rear coil springs and it rides as well as my Excursion did and handles loads exceptionally well. I love this truck. You're also going to love the engine brake and tow/haul mode. My truck recently had it's 75k checkup and my brake pads were at 80%. All of my other trucks were due for a brake job by 75k. When we were looking to buy our truck, the salesman was telling me about it having a heated steering wheel as well as heated seats. I remember saying "What kind of wus needs a heated steering wheel?" Well, now I know because I use it all the time! :)

Bill, I feel the same way you do every day when I drive my 2018 2500. I added bilstein 5100's to the rear to tame the rebound of the coils, and enjoy the ride around town daily.
Whats funny is that after 6 months I discovered the radio controls on the back of the steering wheel. :S
I'm 6'7". I keep hitting those buttons with my knees. :)
