We bought a used '99 a couple of years ago, with only 48,000 miles- had been used to pull a 5th wheel snow-bird trailer, and my wife used it to pull 3-4 horses, usually with a camper on the truck. Has a Banks turbo, and the torque converter went out. Guy who repaired it says he does a million of them- Dodge had three "grades" of torque converter, and many have the lighter duty models- when you soup up the engine and/or pull heavy trailer, they go out. He replaced it with the high-protein model, and said it should last for the life of the truck. He said he hasn't seen much trouble with the transmissions themselves, just the torque converters.
