50K on the one I drive and not one problem....touch wood. I know i will need a new tranny soon since the previous owner seems to have neglected the maintenance on this one. I had to get it flushed and it was at 46K instead of 35 so god knows.

I bought a 2000 Dakota new with the 4.7L V8. That engine was first offered on the 1999 Jeep Cherokee, and 2000 was the first year it was offered in the Dakota. I put 111,000 miles on it before trading in for a new 2005 Ram, and the engine was running as strong as ever. The 45RFE in that truck always had a bit of a hard shift from 2nd to 3rd gear, but I had the problem logged by the dealership and it never became an issue.

I have about 27,000 miles on the 2005 Hemi Ram.

I had an 02 that I just traded in, it was a QC SLT 4X4 with 153000 KM on it which is about 100000 miles on it, and the only problem I had was it needed new U-Joints, once I fixed that problem it was like driving a brand new truck!

Sounds good guys. I have the 4.7 and I hope I can see well over 100,000K myself. I only have a bit over 16,000 on my 05 now.

just rolled over 10K on the 04
Had 44K plus on the 4.7 in the durango.
I saw an 02 ram on carsoup with a 4.7 pushing 300K and said it was still running strong.
