dunno about the 2.5 truth, but i have an 01 with no cracks (*knock on wood*) its in the sun all the time, and i armorall it twice a month (ive heard thats bad)

 

Ok just a question how many of you have the actual dash not just the top part coming apart, because my cup holder is shot and cant be used because the rest of the dash inside is falling apart

 

no cracks here. 96' with 122,xxx miles and sits out side 24/7.

 

My '02 2500 is cracking like a bastard. The bezel already disintegrated, and I cannot bring myself to pay $150 for a new one. Dash has got three vertical cracks in it left, right and middle. Wish I had the skills to fab up a new one and mail this POS back to the Dodge Bros...

 

If a huge chunk missing counts then......count me in.Kinda looks like the shape of Oregon and/or maybe Ohio.The jury is out on that one.'01 Ram 1500.Mine is on the front bezel(where the dash meets it) and not the actual dash itself.Either way...it is like a cool scar,but not really.

hopefully by friday, mine will not be busted up anymore!

 

Sheetmetal dash it is. Thanks guys.

 

mine has a couple of cracks but thats because my ac blows at 40 degrees and the truck sit in the 100+ degree sun all day. thats alot of expanding and contracting even for abs

 

Lol, your air conditioner does not blow at 40 degrees. An AC can only cool to about 20 degrees below the ambient temp. So if its 120, the air will be around 100. Air conditioners operate within a very specific range. If you had 40 degree air coming out of your AC during the summer time, not only would there be vapor coming out of the vents, the condenser would freeze. Happened to me in the desert once when my wife wanted the AC to run at 60, and it was 110 outside. It froze solid.

 

A/C in my Malibu blows significantly colder than 20 degrees below ambient, and it is all stock, with over 200,000 miles on it......... When I get the chance, I will stuff a thermometer in there, and get some 'real world' numbers.
