So two weeks ago, a buddy of mine took his 08 F-150 with 23000 miles on it to see about trading it in. He stopped at the Ram dealership on the way to the other brand, and Ram offered him a smoking deal on a 2016 Rebel. He pulled the trigger and brought it home. It's a beautiful truck even with the grill and tailgate that I don't like. Anyway, he put 300 miles on the truck, then last week we noticed a very loud Tick in the engine. He was afraid to drive it, and ended up calling the dealership who sent a tow truck to get it. After a couple days being in the shop, they advised him today that they think it dropped a lifter. Needless to say he's pretty POd. Dealership seems to be treating him right up to now, and I hope they keep it up. He's been a lifelong Ford owner who decided to try a Ram after driving my truck.
