About to pick up a '14 EcoDiesel tomorrow, Laramie, really nice pictures, loaded to the gills so to say.

My family had two 3rd gen trucks, and I was thoroughly unimpressed by them, but the gen 4's have been completely opposite.

After driving a '16 Eco last week, I was just simply blown away by it. Of course they had me in a Limited, with every option you can think of in it.

Y'all have anything to look out for?

Truck has 59K on it, and is certified by the dealer, IE 2 years 125k drivetrain warranty.

Plus the cost of an oil change is outrageous

Yeah, posting on a site with a bunch of Hemi owners...LOL There are forums specific for the Ram 1500 Diesel.
Hemi's are faster at going down the road and pulling into the gas station more. Hook a 4K lbs trailer to an EcoDiesel and you still get better fuel economy than a Hemi

Plus the cost of an oil change is outrageous
$110(or less) for a full synthetic oil change that will last for 10K miles(backed by many Blackstone OAs) is outrageous? Even full cost at the dealer without buying a package is $180.

The "$500 EcoDiesel oil change" was actually in Canadian $$$ and the guy had other maintenance services performed at the same time.

$110.00 for full synthetic, i pay $60.00 canadian for mobil 1 full synthetic and $ 28.00 for the dealer to change fluid provide filter and top up all fluids. I did not buy a hemi to worry about gas mileage, i fill twice a week from 1/2 tank and spent roughly $140.00 ... pocket change well worth spend
