Test drove a Cummins last night.
Man that thing is sooo smooth. You can't hardly feel it change gears at all. Factory exhaust brake is pretty cool, didn't expect it to work as good as it does. The ride quality with the rear coils ...

i am looking at the dodge. i really don't need all the bells of a bighorn, i like the tradesman and can save 5500. the bighorn is beautiful.
my problem is the wife, she say go bighorn because it has fold down seats, and power plug in back.and is prettier than tradesman. i just get scared about all the additions to other with something breaking down.
Also how do you feel about getting ext warranty from dealer or independent..
am told 7 yr , 120000 is 3400. i can get it online for 2499.
last is the longbed really needed, it is so big to drive. we do plan to camp 6 months a yr.
First they are now "RAM", 2012 was the last year for Dodge trucks.
If you are looking for a 15 you should get it at invoice minus incentives at a minimum.
I paid $2,650 for the Chrysler no deductible 7yr 100K warranty. Don't usually get warranty but I don't have to worry about being covered. ONLY buy the Chrysler warranty!!!
Get the nicer trim level when you are spending that much money you may as well like what you are driving and also have the wife happy!!!
The buckets and 8.4 nav are awesome.
Long bed is always my first choice! No worry about hitch, big tool box will fit and the truck is usable as a truck when bed is empty. You get used to the length, really no big deal.
The factory hitch prep is well worth it!
Spray in bed liner is a good product at a good price.
Aisin trans is a good choice, Medium duty with extra HP and TQ. Another really nice useful thing the Aisin has lower starting gears. Really helps get the load rolling.
