    I know in the past people that knew engines and trucks bought dodge pickup trucks. I do not know if that has changed or not since I do not know engines or trucks so well.

    All kidding aside Dodge builds good engines their weak spot was the transmission 10 or so years ago
    I don’t know how well the newer ones are holding up

    I bought a new Dodge Durango for my daughter to drive to college, she drove it for 6 years to the tune of 211,000 miles. It took four sets of tires ,2 battery’s , 1 radiator ,a thermostat and upper and lower hoses to accomplish. I bought her a new car for graduation and the dealer offer so little for it in trade that I decide to just keep it for a going to the mall and grocery store car . It now has 272,000 miles on it and is still going strong. I don’t believe It owes me a thing at this point in time.

    Man if that was a 4 door I would be all over it. My '04 dodge dakota 4 door with the 4.7 V8 has been very good to me

    Yep that 318 will last. Note: they only made rumble bees in 04 and 05. Only single cab short bed, black or yellow any others are fake! Damm dealers! All the real ones are numbered.

    Nope, 4x4 -3.91 rearend ,5.7 hemi. Mine gets 16 or so but I seem to have a lead shoe problem! Oh, and if you have a hemi run it on 89 or 92. The crappy 87 just dosen't cut it.

    Some of us love to talk smack about dodge trucks but my 04 dodge work truck has nearly 300k miles now and I hate to admit it but maintenance has been minimal. The truck in the op is way prettier though :D

    i have a 2001 dodge ram 1500 that i got in lieu of money owed back 10 years ago. it has serious electrical issues (i am told that is common) but damned if it doesnt keep cranking. i only drive it to lowes or the gravel yard. i will keep it till it finally stops starting or someone offers me money for it.

    My dream truck is a v-10 dodge, 4 door, manual transmission.... or a lil' red express. Yes the one with a 360 and twin stacks. 12v & 24v Cummins with a manual transmission is the most reliable simple & serious 20+ mpg tow machine ever made in my opinion.

    Fiat killed the g56 in the Cummins last year. Rumor is in 22 it's getting an Allison so maybe they will finally have a transmission that will hold

    Only good part of the dodge is the Cummins. My brother loves them and they are always breaking something (except the engine).

    I swear he has spent $20,000 in stealing over the last 2 years. 3 weeks ago was another $3,000.
