I am looking at a 2017 1500 Hemi Quad Cab, is there anything I should know good or bad about this model?

Yes the brake light on cab the seal can get weathered and start leakingMake sure they let you start it cold. Note if it has ticking on cold start (usually broken exhaust manifold bolts). When warm, ensure it isn't ticking as that would be more expensive lifter and cam work. Otherwise, water leaks are somewhat common and not too terribly hard to fix - check under the rear seats for moisture to see if it's an issue with this truck and look at the headliner for evidence of water spots.
And the cab vents... that is where mine has leaked from. Also some have reported the shark fin antenna leaking.Yes the brake light on cab the seal can get weathered and start leaking
It's an easy fix though. Some weatherstripping will fix it. I'd replace it pre-emptively. I did.Yes the brake light on cab the seal can get weathered and start leaking
Second this. Just had mine fixed and was about $1,000. Check for any leaks, especially around water pump.1) Exh manifold studs breaking (manifolds warping). A $1,200 fix
That’s why I never make appointments to see a used car. Show up and surprise them.When I bought my '14 used, the dealer was waaaayyy ahead of me. They always made sure they started it before they let me near it.

I have that in my wife's mazda. It is a nice feature. Too bad ours isn't easy to upgrade to android auto/carplay.2017 is 1 year before they put CarPlay in the radios if that matters to you at all
