As we have so much snow over here in the UK I thought it was time to test out the RAM's 4x4!

It got to -21 degC last night here in the UK. It's the worst winter in 30+ years..........Thank God I got a 4x4 Ram lol lol lol.
All the people who used to give me crap about gas and fuel and how much it cost me to run over here, are sick as chips now ha ha ha.
That last smily face, is for the people I pass on the way to work when they're stuck lol.
Nice videos btw.
Here's one of me having a gentle play a little while back, when the snow first fell. Oh yes......I just left it in 2wd and played with the DTT.
Gotta get some more video now it's a foot and a half deep over here and play a little bit harder ha ha ha.

You wanna know why there was no dodges there? If you notice on the newer trucks, atleast in the Dakotas, It says lock, Not Hi But LOCK. Chevy? Hi. Ford? Hi. Im sure there not lockers up front in chevys or fords. But with it saying lock im thinking it locks it all up up front. Just my 2 cents.

not if your dodge is an 06+, no lockers for IFS frontends

If you don't have a factory LSD in the rear, or an aftermarket locker, you technically have a 2wd truck, no matter what brand you drive
