Depending on how long it's been since you checked it the coolant reservoir will experience some evaporation. Remember the reservoir is not a sealed system. Your radiator cap is the seal. The reservoir lid pops on but isn't air tight. Best rule of thumb is fill the reservoir and monitor it. Check your oil for water and pull your oil cap and look for moisture. And last bu not least watch yor exhaust for white steam after the truck is warmed up and the condensation is has burned off.. Keep an eye on it for a few weeks and see if you notice anything. You can also do a cooling system pressure test if you're really concerned. I just topped mine off the other day. It was almost empty. I've had to add coolant a once or twice since I bought it new in 2014.

51k miles. Runs soooo smooth BUT, the other day while doing one of my routine checks under the hood, I pulled the coolant overflow tank dip stick out and it was dry. I added a quart of 50/50 coolant that brought the level up. This really concerns me. I will be watching the level very closely and fear a dreaded head gasket leak. I removed the radiator cap and the level was fine but still concerned. I'll try to remember to post an update.
My 2017 was delivered with the reservoir nearly dry. I topped it off (specific coolant isn’t cheap) and it hasn’t changed level at all since.
Love my old grabber AT2s. Not quite enough tread left for this winter, so I grabber a winter set, grabbers go back on in spring. I’m excited to try the ATX.I like your avatar photo. I put a set of General Grabber ATX tires on my Ram a few months ago.

I think we Pentastar owners feel a little bit left out on this site because the Hemi owners are always having fun discussing Hemi tick, lifter and cam wham, how to disable MDS, and ALL kinds of funny noises that their engines make! Also all the fun methods they discuss about changing the oil filters without breaking their knuckles, or making a mess on the driveway, And even buying kits to move the oil filter somewhere else! Also the lively discussions about where you can get the best deals on 16 spark plugs to do a change out. Heck, I almost wish I bought a Hemi just so I could be in on all those fun discussions!
I have a 1500 with 3.6, 87000 miles. I'm getting a P0306 code, misfire cylinder #6. I can feel the miss at idle but seems to smooth out as the RPM goes up. I have had all the spark plugs replaced and the coil on cylinder 6 replaced. This did not help any. Is this the dreaded cylinder issue?
