I'm a simple man. I don't ask for much. I love my truck. The only thing(s) I don't like about my truck are some of the options I didn't choose to get, when I bought it. Just extras that I hadn't the cash for, at the time. This was my first "new" vehicle.I've had Fords and Chevys,...never Dodge. They make a great truck. Getting back to the question, though, a power rear-window would have been nice.The kids love to get their sticky fingers all over my freshy-washed rear window, toslide it open.

I have only had my truck a month and only has 2,000 miles but so far I love it. I have noticed the rear end starting to rust where the axle meets the differential and also the rear brake calipers are showing rust but that is probably normal. Also wish the AC would blow a little colder. Other than that it's great. Psst, I love my 6 speed manuel Getrag! [sm=wootwoot.gif]

I actually hate it. It rattles and the shifter shakes a lot. Go over a bump and my hand gets slapped by the ****. I also hate the gear ratio. Who the hell told Dodge that 3.21 is great? I wonder who drives 90% of the time in the HWY. That is one lucky dude or dudette. I know I should have ordered before I bought it, but hey, you asked.

Nothing really wrong with my truck but I think sometimes I should have gotten the megacab for interior space. Oh well, maybe next time. My Ram was the only vehicle I left the lot 100% satisfied with. All other vehicles I wished I would have gotten...

Just a little more room in the back seat of the quadcab, like a few inches, so the back of the rear seatisn't so upright for the rear passangers. Also, as Highduke said, rear camera setup or sensors, Walmart/PepBoys has a remote/wireless camera set up for around 100 bucks, it would help, not that I've run anyone over, but I've come close to nailing a few short people I didn't see until the last minute. After I had the truck for a while,I found I definately needed mud flaps, rear wheel well inserts, bedliner (I went with the bed-rug, and very happy with it so far. Putting a lot of cargo etc...back there and it's holding up real nice. I also added a Cover-all top for the bed. I think that's what it's called. That is working out great. As for factory bitches and complaints, none so far. The truck it was it is and I love the thing.

Overall driving/power performance is VERY disappointing, my truck feels like a V6,unless you have the throttle to the mat! Maybe it is just the poor programming on the 5 speed auto trans, shifting is very premature and mushy soft.

Had the truck in for a gearing change, the dealer had to replace the rear diff. seems the c clips broke and made a mess of a few spider gears! Whats next, its got about 60,000 miles on it?!
