Even though I sometimes wish I'd continued with Ford, which almost always gave me really good service... I still like my Ram OK. It's just turning over 51K miles and right now everything is working. I love the torque and the engine braking for downhill runs. I wish someone at Chrysler had their ARSE kicked for not putting a decent CD changer in there... My biggest complaint is having to convert my music to some other format before I can listen in my truck. Some brilliant soul decided that"no one" listens to CDs anymore...

My F-150 has a 6 disc changer which I've never used. I have all of my music on thumb drives now and the new truck has 2 USB ports, so along with Sirius/XM, I'm good.

Hovering around 36000 miles. (Almost 60000km). Not bad for an 8yr old Silverado. She runs great, tows and hauls well. Only used to haul camper or tow trailer. The odd trip to home Depot for reno supplies here and there. Most of the time she just waits for us to go camping.
Happy Camping

236,000 and some change. Still running strong and still getting great gas mileage considering. Then again, I am meticulous (my wife would say, OCD) with maintenance. Thinking I may start looking at a newer rig when I hit 300k. I will never buy brand new.

Obviously your 6.0 is not that bad!! Had a couple vehicles with that motor. I too had good luck with them. They just need to be worked

510000 was put on the first 6 years hauling trailers around the country. I almost got rid of it this spring when I bought a 2015 Ram 2500 gasser, then got it out of storage and couldn't part with it.

182,000

182,000 on my 2006 F150 SCREW shortbed with the 5.4L

I just recently replaced the Timing Chains and associated guides and tensioners, Cam Phasers, VVT Solenoids, Roller Rockers, Water Pump and Oil Pump.
It was really due for all this and runs like a dream now.

89k miles on mine, but she is retired now. Just sold the trailer and purchased a small class C.

2003 GMC Savana 2500 12 passenger van with 172k. I see people have changed their timing chain and associated parts; seems like a good idea. The engine appears to be going strong and doesn't burn oil, but a change in some parts would wake that 6.0L right up.
