Gents,
I just bought the 2004 Dodge in my signature. Frankly, I am beside myself. This truck is insane, just freaking insane. On a more serious note, it is an early 2004 model...what should I know and watch out for?

Riggin'

Cool! Sounds like a sweet ride. I have a late '03 and love it. The only thing I've had to replace was the A/C compressor. Good fuel mileage and super fun to drive with the Smarty programmer.

Cops! just kidding.........

You may fall under a couple of TSBs,
weather stripping
computer mileage/white smoke
out of park

Also be mindful of the 'out of tank' fuel pump if it's still on yours, the dealers replaced a bunch with 'in tank' under warranty.

Your local dealer can pull up a history.
Genos Garage lists them in detail.

Other than that, ENJOY!
