I came from a 1-ton dually so the suspension seemed a little soft and loose, but its growing on me - as aforementioned, Dodge was thinking comfort.
My early model does not have the MDS light, but oh well.
Throttle response is somewhat delayed? At least in my opinion. However, I'm getting accustomed to it and each day its less noticeable. I'm used to a Cummins... so what can I say?
The factory sub doesn't exactly meet my expectations, I would have preferred the extra space.
The door speakers could use a bit more power IMO, but I'm an audio enthusiast.
Bottom line, Great truck! Nothing that would make me look anywhere else at another!

Few complaints at all.
The one complaint some have is the outside air temp gauge incrementally increases or decreases after getting in the truck, no instant temp reading. I enjoy everything about my CC Laramie I have with all the bells and whistles, just need to add the parkview camera and a few mods (nerf bars and window shields) and it will be complete.
No need to torture yourself any more, go get the truck. You know you want it! What are you waiting on?

It is a really terrific truck. It looks better than any other out now and it runs absolutely fantastic.
The stock Goodyear Wranglers are horrible...the worst tires I have ever owned...but that can be fixed.

No complaints at all from me. I came from a one ton dually Duramax, and this truck is much quieter, better riding, and has instant throttle response. I hated turbo lag on all three previous diesel trucks I have owned, and this Hemi is much more fun to drive in my opinion.
The one thing I would like to see Dodge change is the option to be able to get leather seats with any trim package. If you want the leather seats with a TRX truck, ... no problem, ... same for the sport package. Why do we need to get the Laramie package to get leather seats?

Off topic. There are ready to install custom leather seat covers available. Check out Katzkin.

Yes, most dealers offer Katzkin leather seats aftermarket but they're not covered under the same warranty and are more expensive than from the factory leather. I love every option on my laramie though.....

when i tested the 09 ram, i drove it with different engines, and we took it through an autocross course with the 17s, then 20s, and with the shorter sidewall, the truck seemed to be quite a bit more sure-footed.
