Daughter got her work truck canceled in a collision ... Only thing local and available she could find is the Dodge ...
Anyone have any comments on it, what to watch for in this diesel -- or other comments.
Please don't make this a Chevy/Ford/Dodge debate ![[emoticon]](http://www.rv.net/sharedcontent/cfb/images/smile.gif "smile") -- she already bought the truck and needs it daily to haul heavy trailers for her work.
Thanks M44 ...

It's a Ram for starters. In 2021 Ram went back to the CP3 HPFP which has a proven track record of reliability. Other than that it's like any other diesel.

Don't believe that is what it is called but someone can help me with that. Bottom line they are stepping up and replacing them.

Sherrod Dodge Ram Diesel 3500 Dually ... Give it a loooooong name so they can charge a loooooong price. The cost of trucks is getting way out of line -- Guess they need only sell ONE now to make the monthly nut, instead of four or five. ![[emoticon]](http://www.rv.net/sharedcontent/cfb/images/frown.gif "frown")

But remember, whether it's a car or truck, it's the manufacturer making the lion's share of the profit, NOT the dealer.
