You will see that 2014 was not a good year for RAM pickups.
Granted most is about the 1500 but trucks is trucks.
I don't have a lot of emotion about any brand but I would do my research before buying a 2014 Ram.
Biggest problem with the 2014 RAM was the track bar bracket, Y to dual radiatiors and lack of power fold mirrors on the high trim levels. Track bar bracket issues is mute at this point, all have been fixed. There are aftermarket Y's that are reliable and power fold mirrors are a personal choice. I bought a 2015 RAM 3500 4x4 CC SB SRW Laramie 58-59 months ago. It has been a great truck. Love the Aisin tranny with 3.42 gears. Towed at 24,500 combined without issue and is a freeway cruiser bob-tail. 80 MPH is only 1750 RPM and 19 MPG.
