Kermit, I own a 1997 1500 extended cab 4x4 with the Sport package. It now has around 62,000 miles. To date, I have had no problems with this truck. I run the 318 with 3.55 gears. I consistently run 17-18 mpg, which I feel is pretty go for a full size truck. I know Chevy and Ford owners who have had tranny problems, so it isnt just a Dodge thing. One of my close friends has a 1997 Chevy 4x4. He has shucked two trannies in the first 106,000 miles, and he also went through three fuel pumps.

They seem to have better service, and where I live, the small town dealership has a $40.00 an hour shop rate versus the $88.00 rate at the big city dealership, and they were always real snotty.
