40,000 miles...flawless so far!
Well, not totally flawless. Had the driveline "clunk" problem fixed with the newer Teflon slipjoint grease, replaced both of my remote keys and had my rusty running boards replaced...all done under warranty quickly and with great service from the dealership.
Took a 3,000 mile round trip from Cocoa Beach, FL to Buffalo, NY and back, pulling a trailer with an 800 lb chopper. Drove like a dream the whole way.
Used the cruise control with tow/haul engaged going through the mountains and it worked phenomally well...far better than I anticipated.
The SYNC features and XM radio made for a better trip as well.
The new electronic features in our trucks, as well as in all new vehicles has really made them far more convenient and user friendly than ever before.

40K here also with 10K of that pulling a 9.2 to 9.5K fifth wheel. I had the condesation stumble a couple of times early on, then again in very humid norther Illinois while towing and the Wagner IC. Other than that, it has been a great truck.

51k on the clock and only had the clunk fixed as well. Occasional creaks out of interior pieces but nothing that a little duck tape and super glue won't fix.
