67656 Miles, Wheel speed sensor kaput, power steering, radiator, heater core hoses all had to be replaced. IAC valve, Spark plugs replaced with Iridium, Battery went dead at dealership had to replace, had bad rotors and death wobble @ 25k replaced with duralast rotors and pads and been perfect since. Radio, speakers, alternator and hood latch replaced under warranty. Changed PCV valve twice so far. Oil filter, air filter and oil get changed every 6-7k. Had transmission serviced twice, first was a flush second was a drop, change two filters and refill. Had differential serviced once. Drained and refilled brake fluid with Dot 4/ drain and refill power steering every @45k. She runs strong and I am hoping to get 300-400k from her!

I've got a 4.7 litre 2004 Ram 1500 short box QC shipped with a high-top cap. After 165,000 km it has had a new starter, battery, shocks, break pads, rad, coolant pump, thermostat, and I removed the power steering cooler because it was leaking. Everything except the starter, battery, and shocks were done at 150,000 km when I got the truck. It was a single owner GE Capital lease truck so it came with a few "issues" at a good price.

Work to do this spring includes replacing the oil pan that's rotted out and raising the front end a bit. I've torn off that little black strip below the bumper and knocked off my front license plate driving through small ditches.
