Thats funny, I sell more parts for new dodges than any other car on the road. The vehicle I sell the least parts for are Subarus and Hondas....Fords are the hardest to figure out because they change a part every six months and chevys can't make a fuel pump or a cv shaft last to save a life. My best advice is to purchase an older vehicle with simple problems or buy A subaru or Honda. I might also go with only a newer chevy..They are fighting hard to get back in the quality fight.
Fixing Dodges kept me in grocery money for many years!

@300,000 I would do a complete "old-time" diagnostic: check compression and *timing chain* (if not a 4 cylinder) use an ohm meter on the wires, clean-up check coil packs/distributor (if a distributor check the advance mechanisms, both mechanical and vacuum, check vacuum advance for vacuum supply) look/check the EGR system, including function and gasket. The thing has to be reasonably healthy before you go sensor hunting.
