The truck has a nice shiny red paint job, otherwise it's a worthless piece of junk with a $500. a month payment and another $500. a month in maintanance costs. My next truck will be a Chevy. I will never buy another Dodge!
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No

Ya because merecedes sold chrysler what 6 months ago that really made the 2004 dodge ram bad. If they hadn't sold chrysler maybe your truck would have not broken down, according to the last comment. the split off had nothing to do with the truck being junk. Mercedes owned dodge at the time this truck was built. I do agree dodge is junk, but the previous comment is just ignorant.

Amen for the Chevy! Chrysler is just a mess in all fields now. They lost mercedes and have never recuperated since.
