Owning a Cummins Diesel?

Seriously considering pulling the trigger on a 2015 Ram 3500 SRW diesel, only because finding the 6.4 in a 3500 (that I can afford) is dang near impossible.

Any known issues with the 2015's? In my limited reading it seems like folks have fewest issues with the Cummins. Is DEF easy to find now or do y'all still carry extra? I've never owned a diesel and know very little about them... any comments or advice you want to offer would be appreciated.
  • I have a 2015 2500 with 65,000 miles. The after treatment system has been replaced under warranty (approx. 20,000 miles). No other issues. DEF available at all auto stores/farm and home/truck stops in box format. If you fill up at a truck island it's cheaper than in the box.
