well to day went in for oil change and truck turned 160,000 on the clock
2009 rambox crew
Dallas Dodge has a special 4 oil changes 49.99 .. can't beat it

 

and here i thought my mileage was "getting up there" with almost 50k on my 09 crew.

good job putting her through the paces.

 

160K in three years, very impressive. With that many miles what service beside the scheduled ones have you done? Do you have the Hemi? if so, have you changed out all your plugs at 30K mark? Sorry for all the questions I just bought my first Ram last week, 2011 1500 Hemi, and i'm loving it so far.

 

Holy crap. You've driven 160kmi in 4yrs with your truck?
Getting a conservative 20mpg's at a conservative $3.50/gal, you've spent as much money on fuel as you did your truck. that equates to $28k
...and your pinching pennies on an oil change...lol At that rate you have to pinch everywhere

It is a great price. Seems like they are inviting themselves with more work, like "free" inspections so they can sell you some parts and labor. thats how those deals always work.

break down for 24gal tank. Figure burning up 22gal at 20mpg = 440miles
160kmi/440mi = 364 fill-ups.
364 fill-ups of 22gal @ $3.50 = 364*22*3.50=$28,028. damn. hope i didnt ruin your night.
I havent seen gas at $3.50 in a reallly long time. Last 3yrs it's been $3.80 in my area. I also have never got better than 15mpg on average either...Figured I'd be a little conservative. At 15mpg average and $3.50, overall cost of gas is $37,300.
This is why mine stays parked.

 

Had to have the thermastat and water sensor changed , wheel sensor with abs [ ABS light came on and then went back off?]
Changed plugs at 45,000 , mechanic said they still looked good but we installed platniums plugs , then changed them again at 150,000 ... never had a problem , never through a code
Yes its a hemi, still has awesome power ...
BEST TRUCK I HAVE EVER OWNED , I AM NOT PARTIAL TO NO ONE JUST MY BANK ACCOUNT

I change my oil when I get the message , around 5,000
Changed the rear end , Tranny fluid, Brake fluid, Brakes , antifreeze
Drive the **** out it , not hard just a lot

I pull a 6,000 # camper and a pontoon when we go to the lake , pulls really good
I have the Rambox , people think it is almost new , interior has held up well , I have the SLT with the center console with the better bucket seats , looked at the sport but was worried about leather getting in and out so much
Great Truck , will keep it till its paid for , then give it to one of the kids, get another one
Lifetime power train , bought the Maxcare for 1,800 with 100.00 deduct

Will see how long we can go , avg miles 45,000 a yr @ 6 yrs = 270,000
will see ?
