2020 Ram 1500 Classic. NOT CUSTOMER SUPPORT

I have been struggling with their warranty and what is breaking verses what is covered. and dont even thing about putting after market items on your truck. They wont cover anything. Brand new, both tires and rims were bad and they made me replace them. Now my TPS system wont turn off and they blame the aftermarket products. CANT WIN

It's a beast!

Definitely gets attention from truck owners of other brands. The blend of comfort and off road capability is exceptional for my needs. Exception power; quick; responsive; roomy; comfortable for long runs.
