They've been using Aisin built transmissions for years now. Significantly better than what Ford has.



Our company has over forty Rams they purchased in 2018. The majority of them have had to get the transmission replaced within the 100K range. Mine at 122K and I have pulled maybe one to two trailers in 3 years is being replaced now.

In the half tons, all but the 8 speeds were shitty Chrysler transmissions back then. The newer ones are all ZF and Aisin.

Which brings another issue with Ram - there are now fewer engine and transmission options relative to GM and Ford. So depending on your needs, there may not be a perfect fit. And they've been very slow at making the work truck variants of the new generation Ram.
