I've not known anyone unhappy with their newer diesel powered 4.10 geared trucks! No doubt there may be some but I bet happy owners by far out way the unhappy ones. I like mine, gets great MPG and pulls from a stop easily and when using the engine brake, slows down great too.

Looking forward to having and using the engine/exhaust brake as have never used one. Live in western NC, any direction we go we have to travel through some mountains, esp if go west or north from home so hoping engine brake will be useful.

I installed a PacBrake on our 2001 Ram, and it is awesome! I have a manual transmission and very seldom need to use the service brakes in hills. It is always on and there is nothing like going down a long grade watching all the brake lights ahead, and listening to the sweet rumble of the exhaust brake!
