Default 09 ram

I rode in an 09 ram today, wow. great interior, nice ride.(she wouldn't punch it. I'll have to drive it later) I drove a 300 later in the day and i think the ram rode better.

Yea i went and test drove the new 09's they are really nice inside, and fast as hell i raced a ford and it couldnt compare to the new hemi. but as much as i like the speed and smooth suspension, i still love the 06-08 look better and i cant really get into the new 09 look.. i guess if i bought one and started modding it, it would grow on me but eh oh well i like mine better

They had a test ride here in Orlando just before the 09's were released, amazing ride, great power. The ride is better now because of the coil spring rearend. And the new hemi has almost 400 horsepower. I wish i could go trade my truck in on the new one. The looks of it with the appearance package is amazing.

I didn't get to ride in one but I was at an international car show in NY and when i got to the dodge section i almost died. I sat in the '09 with the full package and it was amazing. TV's in the back, leather interior, very nice. I'll post up some pics up of a bunch of Rams that were there later today when I get them.

I have spent 9 hours strait in one in the back and it was so easy to sleep because of how smooth the ride is major improvements for the 09 year

I agree 100%. I have a 2008 silver, and I saw a 2009 silver just the other day in a parking lot. Exact same truck as mine but a 2009. Performance wise it may be a little better, but style wise I definitely like mine better.

My truck was in the shop a couple of weeks ago for 4-5 days and they gave me an 09 QuadCab 4x4 with the 4.7. The 4.7 seemed a little under powered but only at take off. Other wise then that I absolutely loved the truck. I cannot wait to get one of the new ones but I will definetley get the Hemi. The Fuel mileage was amazing.

It seems if they have some mods, they are sick looking trucks. Don't know why, but some trucks just have that look to them. You just need a few mods to make them look nicer. But I can't wait to be able to get one of them for myself.
