The Dodge brakes are not the best in the world. But the engine brake is.
How does the Jake Brake do going down steep mountain passes?
Actually it is not a jake brake but an exhaust brake, a jake slows the vehicle buy controlling the engine exhaust valves. My 2008 ram CTD has an exhaust brake, I think it's still the same in 2013. Oh and the exhaust brake is awesome going down long grades!
