Default What Is This Thing?

Just to the right of the radio/heat/AC controls there is some type of plastic hook built into the dash. I thought it was a change holder, but if it is, it sucks at that job. The owner's manual doesn't even show a diagram of it, let alone explain its function.

Is it to hang a trash bag from? What is that %*&# thing?

I know exactly what you're talking about and I agree...it's a bag hook.

Possibly grocery, possibly trash bag...it's one of those things you decide how to use it.

Although I know what you're talking because I've seen it...my 07 1500 QC 4X4 does not have it...is that weird?

Also, ESPOMAN...did you get rid of the amber in your headlights somehow? Your headlights look good.

06 and newer have a redesigned interior, so no bag hook. The 07 and newer headlights don't have the amber strip, only the 06's do.

I just asked my roommate last night where I would put the trunk monkey in my truck. Fabulous idea!

You're kidding, right? IT'S A PURSE HOLDER GENIUS!!!!!!!!!
For your lovely wife to hang her purse from, so it's not rolling around the passenger floor area when you hammer the gas pedal.
