A year or two late to this one lol. I’m new here. Just joined. But mines a 2017 reg cab 6.4 hemi DRW 4x4 with 66rfe and 4.10 rearend. Originally a regular 3500 8’ box, not a cab and chassis. Although now I’m runnin it cab and chassis.
Originally bought it brand new with 8 miles on it (and I put 6 of those test driving it).
From the day I bought it, it’s had atleast 4-6k on the ass end of it. Was my rig truck for first 3 years. (Imma pipeline welder by trade).
93k lifter failure. Extremely high idle hours mind you from sleepin/sittin in the truck on the Right of Way.
Brand new long block courtesy of FCA. 127k radiator was clogged. Brand new radiator, hoses, and all that. I paid this time lol.
When ole “Brandon” got in the whitehouse, bottom fell out of the ****** oilfield. (You’d think with gas/diesel prices the way they are, we’d be wide open right? Not when all that money is going to OPEC and overseas. Good job Brandon) anyway, I started my own hotshot company. Dropped my welding bed. Went back to stock everythin. And currently runnin it cab and chassis as my hotshot rig since 2020.
Started 2021 with 127k on it. Currently at 209k and will easily be at 227-230k by Christmas. 100k in a 12 month time frame. Not bad for the ole 6.4. All miles since I went cab and chasis and started my hotshot business have been strictly towing. The wheels on this ***** don’t turn unless my goose is hooked to it now. I have a jeep for my runnin round and **** while I’m at the house. Only other issues have been I replaced the starter. That’s it. Stock everythin else. 5k oil changes religiously. Since the new engine I run redline 5-30 with Mobil 1 m1-113a filters. Air filter change every other oil change. 7-8k miles a month.
