The dodge trucks have come a long way the last couple years. the reason the front end parts wear out quicker is that the dodge turning radius is pretty tight. The old ones anyhow. The new ones are just as good as the 2 other guys. Locking hubs would be a bonus, but ya can't win em all.

Don't mind the GM. Love the duramax/allison. Love the IFS!! Do not like the body or interior.

Love the new ram truck. Looks mean, love the cummins and the aisin 6 speed isn't that bad. Ride is pretty good and the road noise is way down.
The Aisin is only available in the C&C...just sayin

Sadly no...that POS is another fine Dodge/Chrysler product. So dissapointing as so many of us that flip our trucks every few years were promised this kick-*** 6 speed tranny for almost 2 years, then when it was finally announced, it was only available in the C&C...

Im still happy with the 68RFE but Dodge always advertised the Aisin as the Allison killer, too bad nobody gets to do a true comparison.
