I really like my RAM 1500 4x4. The 8 speed transmission is the best transmission I have had in a vehicle. It always seems to be in the right gear. It's like it's got ESP or something. Even going down hills it downshifts to slow the truck down. Even better when it's in tow mode. I call it sport mode. Super comfortable. It's a handsome truck. Drives and handles great. Lots of creature comforts especially since it's not even the top of the line model. It's a Bighorn model. Mrs. Irish likes taking it on trips better than going in her top of the line Mazda SUV, because the seats are so big, upright and all day comfortable.
I plan on keeping it for a long time. I have about 60k on it now. No issues.
