I have an 07 dodge ram 1500 mega cab and when I hit a good size pot hole or rough rail road tracks my truck shuts off. I have checked the battery connections and there good. It did come with a factory remote starter if that matters. Any ideas?

This is only a wild guess, but you may want to check the different Ground Connections

There are Body Grounds, Engine Grounds, Frame Grounds, etc.

It wouldn't be a loose battery connection, a running car/truck does not rely on the battery connections to keep running. I would start with checking all electrical connections to make sure they are tight ans seated correctly.

Make sure all your fused and relays in the fuse block are seated.
