Everyone has a favorite truck or car during there life...mine was our 2004 ram 3500 laramie 4wd four door pickup. OB1JEEPER on this forum helped me find it back in 2010 in Arizona where he lived. Here is the final tally sheet for our ownership
Bought with 131k miles in 2010 for 15,500
Sold with 281k miles in 2018 for 10,000
Oil and filter changed every 5k miles with fuel filter every other
Transmission serviced every 30K miles
Heaviest load towed was a Case 580K on a triple axle trailer we weighed out at 22,000 total
Best mileage was 25mpg over several hundred miles running at 60 mph.
Average mileage was 21 not towing and 17 when towing.
Over the years I changed the following parts
Waterpump 2 times
Brakes at 132k and 270K Second set also received calipers
turn signal switch
front axle ujoint
drive shaft ujoints
throttle position sensor
fuel lift pump
front axle hub
Tires at 132K and 200K
Best truck ever....Total cost of ownership minus oil and filters and tires...
4 cents per mile....
