Do they? Dodge says about 500,000.
We were always told to "drive like you stole it" LOL
We really couldn`t ask for a better truck. It has NEVER left us stuck
somewhere. Trying to trade it off (we don`t haul anymore) but dang dodge
dealers won`t give over $5000. I only drive short distants now.

LOL, did you really think that they would? While your truck might look good
(just guessing) and have a Cummins engine, the rest of the truck still has
354,000 miles on it. That is a lot of miles for the rest of the drive train
and suspension and most people would think that the truck is worn out. You
can always try and sell it privately and see what you get but I doubt that
you will get many offers over $5000.
