It's a Dodge thing and it's normal.

About the transmission mount, just get under there and poke it. It should be firm.
Mine was bad on my camaro and the transmission would slap the floor when I stomped on it. When I got under there and checked it out I saw that the mount had the consistency of a gummy bear.

Yep, familiar with that sound.... first time I hear it, I about had a heart attack.

When my tranny is cold, i dont get a thunk in reverse, but as soon as it warms up, it thunks every time into reverse. All forward gears shift fine.
