Greetings,

My first Ram was a 2014 Laramie Eco Diesel Crew Cab. Engine blew up at 17,000 miles.
Dealer replaced the engine but it took a couple months and leaked coolant when I got it back.
Headed down the Lemon Law path, but Ram came through and we ordered a new truck. A 2016.
I put a Green Diesel Engineering Hot Tune ECM on it at 1,700 miles.
Ran flawlessly for 171,000 miles. Blackstone tested every oil change and raved about the results. I ran Rotella T6 on every change.
Could have kept going but decided to replace it with a 2026 1500 Limited Crew Cab with the Hurricane HO.
Only had it a few days, now at 280 miles. I like it. Definitely like the horsepower. Only issue so far is the TomTom loading issue. It loads fine on the full NAV screen but has issues on any split Home Screen. So I think it’s loading, just lost somewhere. I see that issue has been posted a few times. Technology strikes again! It’s a computer on wheels.

I’ll see what the dealer has to say in a week or two and post something then.
