Hello,I am Caitlynn and own a 2012 Ram 2500 4x4 with the 5.7 hemi.Been happy with this truck since I bought it new in 2012.Was bitten by the Ram bug for 4 years now and not going back.Had my share of GM fullsize trucks and a few Ford trucks.I had enough of the Fords nickeling and diming me to death.The GM fullsize trucks,all right and were a lot better than the Fords.This one has been great to me,gets me to point A to point B with no problem at all.Already talking buying a 2017 Ram next year,weighing this one out first thinking it over

Welcome to the forum and good luck picking out your next truck. If you end up stepping down to a 1500, the 8 speed transmissions on the 2013+ trucks make for much better mpg's and overall performance behind any of the engine options, even the hemi.

Thanks and I did to it so far was replace the timing chain and the tensioners last month.Was starting to make noise and caught it in time.Regular maintenance too,the oil changes and a transmission fluid filter twice using the ATF+4 transmission fluid only.Friend of mine told me to use the ATF+4 in Chrysler automatics only.
