Until winter 2004 I had only owned one Dodge in my life, a Shadow.

Late 04 I sold a 68 Mustang, 97 Formula WS6 and earlier in the year a 05 Honda Magna.

For Christmas 04 I bought that Viper. Then seeing all the space in the garage I thought to myself, why I am driving that little FX4 Ranger. In came the 05 Hemi Ram... Then it start to snowball.... SRT Ram, Jeep GC, went back to a TA, but in the end I determined I liked a truck as my DD, so now a 4th Gen.

For trucks they look the best, of course that is opinion. Power is above average.

As for the toys.... The hold value better than pony cars.

Well, originally I was looking at a Silverado 2500 with the 8.3L V8, not because I needed it, but I wanted the engine. But no one around had one in stock, and my car was totaled in an accident, so I couldn’t wait to have one ordered. And then, after driving a Ram 1500, Silverado 1500, and F-150, I liked the Ram the best. It had the most power, I liked the looks better than the Chevy and Ford, plus it was cheaper and better equipped.

Because it is the best looking truck by far! I tried Tundra, Silverado, and f150. The Dodge drove, handled and steered the best, closely followed by the Tundra and then the f150. The Chevy was just plain cheap garbage! It was awful!

i got my dodge because ever since the 94 came out i liked the general look. I would have to say i prefer the 06-08 body obviously but in general its the looks. the hemi is great too. Had i needed a 3/4 ton, nothing beats the power and durability of the cummins, hands down.

The Triton takes 24 hours to change the spark plugs, and many of the Chev's have piston slap and weak IFS. The Hemi + quadcab with a real truck box sold me on it as well
