Can you say, "Ceramic ball bearings in me turbo"?
Yes, but only if I talk like a pirate.

Well,, it's Gasparilla season here in Tampa Bay, so.....Yes, but only if I talk like a pirate.
That's true, but there sure are a number of people here trying to single out Ram. A little balance is warranted.Why single out Ford, every manufacturer has their share of issues?
They are good motors if you do the needed upgrades from the start lol…My coworker used to work for a Ford dealer. He bought a 6.0 power stroke in dually form and then he bulletproofed it. Egr delete and did head studs. He tows a 26ft toy hauler everywhere and it's been great for him. Welcome to ram though
Well, it is a RAM forum, so that's probably to be expected?That's true, but there sure are a number of people here trying to single out Ram. A little balance is warranted.

Yea, but before they went out and got a looker, they F'ed a couple of fat ugly broads...So were they blind? Noooooooooooo.......Cut the former Chevy / Ford Owners some slack.
They are obviously trying to improve themselves, they did buy a Ram, after all.

I bet people bash the crap out of Fords on their forum page too?
Exactly, you ask yourself "what the crap did I just buy...?"Yes. And Jeep on Jeep forums and if Chevy owners could read and write you'd probably find it on their forums as well.
Honestly, and I truly mean this, the best way to lose enthusiasm for a vehicle you're interested in buying for the first time is to read a forum about it. Every single machine on the planet is a giant POS you're an idiot for even considering if you pay attention to forums.
I dunno if it's that people paid too much or if there is just an expectation (sometimes maybe unrealistic) set that isn't met. I don't think most people who spend any decent amount of money on a vehicle expect to have major issues. But, as with everything else in life sometimes you'll get that lemon. That doesn't mean that you'll always get a lemon when you buy a Ford, GM, FCA, Toyota, Nissan, etc... product but if you have to take a big enough bite of your lemon you'll think twice before buying something else that reminds you of that lemon.I often wondered why folks go online to complain about their Truck or problems. I've done it too.
No one goes online and publicly proclaims they hooked up with an Ugly Chick.
Few brag about paying too much for anything, yet, screaming about a junk truck is perfectly acceptable behavior.
When, it is pretty much the same thing.
You bought the truck, so you obviously paid too much for what you got.
Not to mention all the headaches. Talk about getting TOOK.
Like with a Butt Ugly, triple Bagger Girlfriend, it ain't a good one
definitely nothing to brag about but thanks for letting us all know
you got one and sharing the Experience.
Human Behavior, suppose.
OP,
Welcome to the most informative Forum on the Net.
Lots of great guys here.
Cut the former Chevy / Ford Owners some slack.

My technique is this: "Hey, when you bought that car, did they introduce you to the service manager or show you the service department? Or did you happen to see where the service department is at? Know why it's back there? Because their **** breaks, too"Exactly, you ask yourself "what the crap did I just buy...?"
Spoiler Alert: THEY ALL HAVE STUFF THAT BREAK OR DON'T WORK CORRECTLY. lol
Never owned one, but had a loaner for a week. Fewer miles than my 1500... Hated that 10 Speed! The shifting between gears seemed to be random.That 10 speed is an abomination. Welcome !
