MY 2007 2500 4X4 DIESEL 6.7 HAS BEEN A HEADACHE SINCE THE BEGINNING . IT HAS STALLED SEVERAL TIMES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON FOR A SHORT WHILE THEN GOES OFF . BUT THE OTHER DAY I WAS IN A TIGHT SITUATION, WHEN I STEPPED ON THE ACCELERATOR HARD , A CAR PULLED IN FRONT OF ME I IMMODERATELY STEPPED ON THE BRAKE , AND NORTHING WAS THERE , IT WET ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR THEN AFTER A SECOND OR TWO IT STARTED JUMPING AS THE ANTI LOCK BRAKES STARTED TO WORK,THIS WAS A CLOSE ONE I COULDN'T OF SLIDE MY WALLET BETWEEN MY TRUCK AND THE CAR THAT PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME . THIS TRUCK ALSO HAS THE WORSE RIDE ON CONCRETE FREEWAY PAVING . IT BOUNCES IN A UN STABLE, MOST IRRITATING WAY ,ON ASPHALT FREEWAY IT IS VERY SMOOTH, UNTIL YOU HIT A BUMP AND IT SHIMMY'S IN A UN SAFE FELLING LIKE IT COULD LOOSE CONTROL, I AM HAPPY WITH THE POWER OF THE MOTOR WHEN ITS GOT A FULL LOAD GOING UP HILL.
