Falling Apart

The Cummins diesel is the only thing that hasn't broken after 75K miles. I bought this truck new, and I have maintained this truck to the recommended dodge maintenance specs. since I brought it home. The Transmission started slipping at 65,000 miles, no longer goes into 2nd or 1st gear, driver side front bearing is going, leaks fluid like a British motorcycle, air conditioner has died twice, and currently does not work, outside air temp. reads -40? (in Florida), rear windows intermittently do not roll up, window trim is warping and coming off, windshield wipers sometimes decide not to turn off, clear coat and paint are fading and chipping, the truck squeaks and rattles like it has 300K miles on it... and I'm sure there is more good news to come.
