    I’ve had my truck for four years now, I have not had any problems with the plastic breaking on anything yet. I do have a chrome bumpers so that probably helps. Only problem I’ve had with the plastic, is the interior plastic scratches easily. Better than my old dodge plastic dashboard, which cracked after eight years. I’d rather have this truck and upgrade it’s stereo, than get a different truck brand with a better stereo that still has plastic everything but less reliable. That’s stupid

    You’re going to get good resale. Good luck on your sale. Let us know what you purchase and what site you join when you do. I want to see if the mechanic at the dealership enjoys your new gadgets and better sound system.

    Here’s my 17 Ram truck I have had since new at work. Lots and lots of cheap plastic and it’s been to the shop 7 times now. Stereo isn’t bad though.

    I agree. Lets go back to non plastic vehicles. Back when motors stalled out, struggled with altitude changes and wore out before 100k miles. 3 speed auto was better too

    Hmmm....Think I saw OP this morning playing in the dirt while driving into work. This explains why he's not been available to respond. Looks like he went all out plastic.
