Default My Ram is a TURD

I just realized today that my ram is a piece of crap. The front grille is missing, the bumber is bent from a 55mph rearend smash into a ford F250. The hood is bent from my forgetting to latch it before test driving it after installing a new air filter. My right side mirror is a bolt on tow mirror because I ripped the old one off on a box truck while trying to squeeze down a road with cars parked on either side doing 35. My back bumper is bent in on both sides from backing into two trees that didn't agree to let me between them. Both rear fenders are bent in from two trees that I almost squeezed in between but then got nailed by them on both sides. My tailgate is an ugly metal black thing with the top cut out for the 5th wheel, and oh yeah ive used it to get unstuck a few times so it is bent to hell. My back left window is a piece of plexy glass because my awesome brother backed into a tree with a 13ft piece of 2x8 resting on top of the bed right behind the window, which smashed it in. The interior is ok, except for the excessive coffee stains and cigarette burns, and the headliner hanging down and the hole in the drivers side seat. The paint resembles a cow. I also have some diamond plated side steps that look like they should be attatched to a big rig and they have matching pieces on top of the sides of the bed. And to top it all off, I'm missing a hub cap, thanks to Kauffman Tire!!!! But what the hell, it still works!!!! I do love driving up next to a new Tundra and knowing that my truck has paid for itself many times over. Ive gotten better about how I treat my beast lately with the exception of jumping some railroad tracks doing 70mph because of some impulsive thinking and peer pressure. It felt like I did a bunny hop but according to the people riding behind me I got about 4-5 ft of air. Whoops! I can't describe this truck well enough in words, I have to figure out how to post pics. Now that I think about it I have no idea what this post is about. Oh yeah! My Ram is a piece of crap but i wouldn't have it any other way..lol

it sounds like an ugly pos. but let me ask you the most important question... does it have an impressive stereo, big tires, and obnoxiously loud mufflers
