"Poor quality, poor design"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The truck burns oil.

The engine has a loud pinging noise.

The front end bushing and pins need replacing.

A brake line blew.

The water pump is about to go.

The power steering pump leaked from several locations and broke.

It is rusting in several locations.

Drivers side mirror cracked when the mirror heating option was used.

General comments?

It has a great interior, good room and amenities.

It has very sluggish acceleration.

Great hauling capacity.

Poor engine design.

Very poor vehicle quality.

Typical Chrysler; poor design and very poor quality.

If your Ram is a gas engine, your pinging noise could be related to the grade of fuel you use. I read in my truck's (1992 Ford) manual that the higher grade you use, then there are fewer problems. Just a suggestion...
