    My truck is a 2010 1500 Regular cab 4x4, truxedo prox15 tonneau (very light). with a 4.7 V8. Stock tires are 20", all stock suspension and exhaust (although new), stock height, etc. I change the oil every 3000 kms, and runs better than when I bought it new 12 years ago. I have lightened the...

    I hope I don't regret this

    Hi Dodge Trucker - I had a 1996 2WD RCSB 318, I gave it to a friend 10 years ago and it still runs (probably well over 500,000kms on her now). So I agree, great engine. I bought a 2010 4WD RCSB brand new off the lot in 2010, it has a 4.7 V8, and runs better than new. I do all of my own oil...

    I have a 2010 Ram 4.7L 4x4 regular cab SLT, that I bought new off the lot in 2010. Original wheels. The only mods are a Redtop battery, tailgate lift assist, dash cam, and Bilstein shocks. She runs like new. The only thing I need to do this year is remove the factory skid plates and repaint...
