Call me the old curmudgeon here, but I've owned 8 trucks since 1987 and each one, with one exception, was an improvement over it's predecessor. The one exception was my 2003 Ram 2500 with Cummins. Somewhat juiced up, it made 503hp and 1060 lb/ft at the wheels and was a blast to drive. Upgraded the transmission (Garmon Diesel Performance Transmissions) and drove it for 300k miles. The 2014 that followed it was quite tame in comparison. Traded it at 208k miles for my current 2023 Ram diesel, which is the most comfortable, best equipped, best tow vehicle I've owned.
I think they keep getting better..........
