re: Ram 1500 Ecodiesel new purchase

The motor is a ticking time bomb in the Ram, between the EPA regs and the hot tune to give it more appeal to American truck buyers it's got a lot of potential problems. Everything from the usual EGR issues and intake crudding up from excessive blow-by to cam gear failure that can lunch the whole engine. They are needy engines too when it comes to fluid service and it's garbage they spec a 10k oci with as much synthetic oil as that thing takes.
