Not sure on ram, but have one in a '15 jeep GC... great pairing with the 8 speed... 30 mpg at 70 mpg and plenty of pep round town...

My buddy has 2 Grand Cherokees, a 2011 here and a new one up north. He said the 2011 is good but the new one is awesome.

Well I made it 6 months, 10,500 miles and the Ram is gone. Probably the worst new vehicle I have ever owned! I bought a new Tahoe LT.

Highs:

Dodge rode great, averaged 16.4 mpg over the time I owned it.

Lows:

Seats sucked, rear windows/locks quit working, odd click in front end, oil filter location was a hassle (changed it once) and the electronics in a general were awful. Radio would black out weekly, key would not be recognized in ignition probably every other day. Put any weight in it and it will drag the bumper down the street.


I have had 20+ GM trucks, one Ford and one Dodge. Glad to have another GM (I know what to expect).
