My next site neighbor has a 2005 Dodge Dually Diesel with 110,000 miles. He is a very non-aggressive driver like me so I'm sure abuse isn't the cause and he maintains his truck correctly. But his transmission failed a few days ago to the tune of $4,300.00. He was told it had been running hot and this was a known problem with this year model, so when they rebuilt the transmission they also installed a trans cooler.

The funny thing is this same guy said this is his 3rd Dodge diesel and his third trans failure at the 100,000 mile mark.

I'm glad I have an Allison.
