    I have 380k on my 12 valve, no ripped seats, no cracked dash, 4x4 works perfect, engine has never been touched except injectors, we pull live stock trailers with it everyday, and I mean everyday, but it has been "grandpawed" its entire life and runs like the day my dad got it in 1997

      @@RamTrucks I bought my truck in 2019 in the first month I had to have back seat anchors put in as they were missing from the factory, the front seat cushion had to be replaced as it didn't want to stay on, the black door trim had to be replaced because they were coming off. The bed had to be taken off a realigned so the tailgate would work. the inner fenders have had to be replaced twice in the front, the door seals have been replaced because of a whistle that can't be figured out. Yea Ford has a lot to worry about if FCA can build a truck worth a damn.

    My grandpa has a 1997 Ram 2500 (Diesel) and she still works like a dream and never had any work done to it, every summer weekend we haul a boat behind it and it pulls it like nothing. And on top of that, the truck has been a work truck for construction since it was purchased. Ram trucks are the best sounding, most comfortable, and obviously toughest and strongest trucks out there today!

Before that I had a 1988 W150 and put 400k on the little 318. Ram really is a great product. Thanks for building such a wonderful truck.
