Either that is a pre-production prototype or a 94. Secondly, the only way to get any kind of measurable fuel economy boost is to do what I do and drive(I'm not kidding either) VERY VERY slow.

wow, that thing is in rough shape.... you might want to look into fixing up the body, rather than gas mileage mods.

besides, you arent going to get much better than what youre getting now.

94 model year is the first year for 2nd gen Rams. My 98 Ram has a November 97 build date.

They've been doing that for AT LEAST 50 years. For instance, I recently test drove a 2013 Dodge Dart. My '95 was built in November of '94 I think.

i think your jealous. it may be be beaten up but there looks like no rust.

looks like a great truck for its age. where i live some vehicles start looking unsafe to be on the road after they are about 15 years old.
