I have a 2005 dodge diesel,
fine truck was well care for and I got it at 42K miles.
one problem with the 2005, you cannot lockout overdrive,
my old chevy 2500 as it did not have tow haul mode, I always shifted to 3rd and that is what I pulled in. worked fine for me as I am no speed demon.
however, some other models of dodge pickups do allow you to lockout overdrive and the newer models, have the exhaust brake,
that is what I wish I had is the exhaust brake, on a long steep down hill pull, would sure be nice to hit that exhaust brake button and set back.
just my two cents.
