Hemi reliability - Hype or Happy?
Just curious more than anything else. There was quite a bit of hype about the reliability of the Hemi engine and the effort Chrysler went throught o bullet-proof it; like, "The engine was exposed to some of the harshest testing conditions and abuses imaginable," said Donald Dees, Vice President of Quality for the Chrysler Group. "And each time it roared back."
I've seen/read/heard complaints about the 545RFE tranny, the blend door, etc., but.. Has Chrysler actually done something good with the Hemi?

I've got a little over 80k on my truck, and she still purrs like a tiger. I've had some CEL, but that was with my vacuum system, and power steering pump.
never had any problems....got almost 70K on my 04 and almost 50K on my 05.....never seen any engine related issues while at the dealer nor did i see/hear of any while i was working at Chrysler HQ....honestly, i wanna say they almost as reliable as the old 360 i use to have in my 96 ram lol

47,000 on my 08. Your truck is a carbon copy of mine with the exception of the bed rails. I drive mine pretty hard. No codes or tranny problems. I have some engine noise @ start up which I understand is quite common but once its warm and I touch the throttle the noise is gone & she runs like a scalded dog thanks to the Cortex performance tune. My Chevy MC made these same noises @ start up and had 130,000 on it with absolutely no engine related problems. Im happy with my Ram other than the seat cushions being Walmart grade sh*t.
