    Sounds low. i would guess the dealer ship is working on a 20-25% margin on your trade.

    What DON'T you like about your RAM?

    I think the seats could be more comfortable. Also I lack a little bit space around my right knee when driving.

    2020 RAM 2500 6.7 Cummins blown due to dealer error

    If I was in the market for a new truck I would rather buy a truck with a new engine. Just make the dealer ship write a statement that explains that it is a factory new engine And the reasons why it was installed.

    Transmission Temps While Towing

    My 3200 runs at 168 99% of the time. Once it reached 197 on a very steep grade with many switchbacks. I was not towing and the speed was around 20 mph. So very little airflow.

    CP 4 vs CP 3

    I know that the CP 4 is not as reliable as the CP 3. I also know that if the CP 4 goes bad, it is very likely that the fuel system up stream from the pump is likely to be contaminated. What happens if the CP 3 goes bad? is there risk for fuel contamination?

    What inspired you to buy a RAM truck?

    I fell in love with the ride quality. it rides smoother than the Ford. Then I like the design and the fact that the engine still sounds like a diesel engine.
