My local independent MOPAR repairman said we would be looking at least $7,100 for repairs. With 144K on the odo "KC" had to go. Went to a dealer in...

    My new RAM

    Traded in a 2014 with problems that were too expensive to deal with. Got this with $16,000 off with dealer incentives. We are very happy!!!! One of a Kind... Southfork edition.

    Looks like I'm never buying RAM again...

    There's nothing like a HEMI V8 no matter how many turbos you put on it! I have a wild 2015 VW Golf R AWD 2.0 turbo. It's in a different world all it's own with all of the mods I have done to it and yet I like my truck with it's V8 better.

    Wow, this is truly amazing!!! This is my first full size truck and first RAM. When were renting trucks in Arizona to move from house to house I found the RAM was the best fit for me. I am amazed at what they offered on the 2014 RAM. I feel real lucky to stumble upon this used vehicle. All...

    I'm not sure if I can post this here. So here goes... Who has the highest mileage 4th Generation Hemi 5.7 on this forum without having done any work internally? I bought my 2014 RAM with 117,000 on it and I have now 123,000 on it without any problems. I change the oil and filter every 5k and...

I took to a local garage and they diagnosed that the left front strut/ air bag needs replacing. $1,900 for the OEM...
