Hello everybody,
I am new to this forum and to the Dodge community, I'm looking for some buying guidance in buying my first Ram. Previously all I have had is jeeps and was involved in the communities and I'm excited to be involved in this one as well. I'm looking at buying a 3rd gen Ram, gas, quad cab. My budget is between 5-6k the main use of this vehicle would be irregular short light hauling and the occasional 400-mile trip between homes a couple times a year. What should I look for and what should I avoid? Any inherent problems? I've seen a ton of people mention that their engine has been replaced around 100-150k, are these throwaway engines or are they vastly repairable? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
