Muddy Monday: Yahtzee Dodge Ram in Action Once Again

A couple of weeks back we looked at a 2nd gen Dodge Ram storming through the mud with the word “Yahtzee painted across the tailgate and this week, we have another video featuring that high riding Ram in action – this time in a longer, more impressive video. This time, we get to see the jacked up Cummins Ram roaring all over a large, open area that offers tons of deep, muddy obstacles for the trucks to overcome and, not surprisingly, this monster Dodge Ram takes them all in stride.

This video shows the Yahtzee Dodge Ram digging through deep, muddy water, blasting through shallower mud and popping over a collection of small jumps – or jumps that look small compared to this monstrous Dodge Ram. In the world of mud boggin’ this Ram looks to be one of the more capable Dodge trucks that I have seen and with this video being fairly new, we could see more of the Yahtzee Ram in the future. In the meantime, crank up your speakers so that you can hear the Cummins Turbo Diesel engine roar and enjoy!

"Before I was old enough to walk, my dad was taking me to various types of racing events, from local drag racing to the Daytona 500," says Patrick Rall, a lifetime automotive expert, diehard Dodge fan, and respected auto journalist for over 10 years. "He owned a repair shop and had a variety of performance cars when I was young, but by the time I was 16, he was ready to build me my first drag car – a 1983 Dodge Mirada that ran low 12s. I spent 10 years traveling around the country, racing with my dad by my side. While we live in different areas of the country, my dad still drag races at 80 years old in the car that he built when I was 16 while I race other vehicles, including my 2017 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat and my 1972 Dodge Demon 340.

"Although I went to college for accounting, my time in my dad’s shop growing up allowed me the knowledge to spend time working as a mechanic before getting my accounting degree, at which point I worked in the office of a dealership group. While I was working in the accounting world, I continued racing and taking pictures of cars at the track. Over time, I began showing off those pictures online and that led to my writing.

"Ten years ago, I left the accounting world to become a full-time automotive writer and I am living proof that if you love what you do, you will never “work” a day in your life," adds Rall, who has clocked in time as an auto mechanic, longtime drag racer and now automotive journalist who contributes to nearly a dozen popular auto websites dedicated to fellow enthusiasts.

"I love covering the automotive industry and everything involved with the job. I was fortunate to turn my love of the automotive world into a hobby that led to an exciting career, with my past of working as a mechanic and as an accountant in the automotive world provides me with a unique perspective of the industry.

"My experience drag racing for more than 20 years coupled with a newfound interest in road racing over the past decade allows me to push performance cars to their limit, while my role as a horse stable manager gives me vast experience towing and hauling with all of the newest trucks on the market today.

"Being based on Detroit," says Rall, "I never miss the North American International Auto Show, the Woodward Dream Cruise and Roadkill Nights, along with spending plenty of time raising hell on Detroit's Woodward Avenue with the best muscle car crowd in the world.
