2017 Ram 68RFE Question
Was this a pretty reliable transmission? Looking at a 2017 2500 with it that has about 75k miles on it.

Except on my 2019 Silverado...no dip stick.
So the trans can’t be serviced? Lol
Yes it can. You just have to know how to do it
I know. ;)
Haven't had a dipstick on the last 4 personal vehicles I've done a trans service on. The Mustang was/is unique, but super easy if you make an extension/valve for the drain/fill plug on the pan. It may be the first trans service I've ever done without spilling one drop of fluid, literally.
Ah! Missed the LOL.
I know the F150 is a pain. You’ll burn the skin off your hand trying to fill/check it!
On the 6 speed. The fluid needs to be changed more often than what the manuf recommends. At 60k miles it’s black!!! I’ve seen the valve body’s hangup due to the contaminated fluid. Keep it changed and you will not have any problem.
