I'm 21 20 when I bought the truck and I worked across the street from a dodge dealership and everyone always said how bad *** the hemi was.
So I got sick of looking at them every day and just went and bought one on my lunch break one day.

I'm 46 and I bought my Ram for towing. I finished restoring a 1967 Olds 442 last year, then realized my trusty Astro van was not gonna cut it for hauling the 3700 lb 442 and 1700 lbflatbedtrailer. So I started checking out new pickups. To allow for the possibility of a future upgrade to a 24-26' enclosed trailer, I felt a 3/4 ton truck was the best choice. After doing some shopping I found the Dodgehad the best overall package for the money. I don't put a lot of miles on and my vehicle oftengoes up to 2 weeks at a time without even being started, especially in winter, so I felt gas power was the better option for me.I chose a 2500 quad cabbased on availability, price, looks and power. While I don'treally need a 4x4, theresale value is so much higher on a 4wd in this area (Buffalo, NY) that it justifies the price difference over a 2wd.

i thinks that 21% probably applies to all trucks, not jut rams. Nothing wrong with no college imo. In a truck segment your looking at a lot of people that own construction companies, hvac, etc, etc. Make good money, and need a truck.

IMO, i think the manufactures dont really need that in their poll.
