I enjoy the vehicle very much. It preforms very well and is very resilient when maintenance is overdue. It is, however, a bit of a gas guzzler. The engine size is powerful and probably more than the average owner would need, though it is nice to know I have it if needed. Being it is a larger vehicle you might think it would take awhile to build confidence and feel comfortable driving it. So it may come as a shock that it did not take long to learn how to maneuver it well enough to enter parking lots without cringing. All and all if I had to do it again I would probably wait and purchase the newer model. The cab cools fairly quickly but the large windows require the A/C to be set closer to the max to keep the cab cool. This makes listening to the radio or conversing slightly irregular being that it is so loud. But still, there are other things I like. For instance, it seats six. The center console converts from storage to an extra seat. The seats in the back folds to expose extra storage as well. The four wheel drive is also one of those comforts that is extended but not used regularly.

We bought a used Dodge Ram 1500 pickup truck. It's a 2014, and we bought it in 2017. We bought it specifically to pull a fifth wheel. But we also sold our two vehicles and pared down to one, so this is our only vehicle. We have been mostly happy with it. The problems really come down to the dealership and how they were remiss. We just found that they replaced the 20" spare with a 17", which is not good, and we had to spend a bunch to update the tires as there was a slow leak in one of the tires. But overall, we've been very happy with its performance.
