I too find it tight when my wife and I both have drinks in the center cup holders. If I have a cell phone in the cubby hole next to the floor shifter and an open bag of chips to eat piled ontop of the shifter. I think we get so comfortable in the cab of our trucks with the DVD playing on a trip we think its like our couch. Ive realized maybe Im trying to do too much in there.
Someone might be able to back me up here, but as far as I know the quads DO NOT come with inverters in the back, but the higher end CREWS its pretty much standard?

P.S. My work truck is a superduty 5.4, FORD did good when they got rid of it, its no more powerful then dodges 4.7 haha!

I wouldnt be able to carry $h!t with the tiny bed on the 1500 crew cabs. but the back seat on the quads you couldnt even have someone sit in comfortably with someone in the front. so i had to go to the 2500 to get a normal bed with a good back seat, which worked out for the best all around because I tow and haul all the time
Sometimes it is for the better tho, for the "average" guy usually if hes hauling stuff around and needs a bed hes not going to be hauling more than three people. The guy that has a family? Well hes going to need the room for the most part not bed space. For the guy that hauls a crew of four guys for work-well hes got a good big crew meaning hes probably doing bigger jobs, which means hes probably going to need a 2500 anyways!-like you say.

i didnt even read the rest of your post because your obviously in need of midol so In a week or so when your monthly flare up settles we'll talk.

where were you going with 2wd and my landscape company? 2wd are risky on hills with any moisture, let alone hills that are soaked.

ok the guy wants to come on DODGEFORUM and talk about how a FORD is better, give me a break. so you guys want cup holders, i posted a link in my prior post, BUY THEM AND SHUT UP

the crew cab is exactly what it says. I have a crew of guys I occasionally carry, and guess what, they fit just fine, with my seat still adjusted to where it needs to be. the quad cabs on the other hand you have to move the seat way forward in order to get anyone back there, so you both sacrifice comfort.

its the perfect fit for someone who 1) the quad cab was too small, and 2) the mega cab was too damn big

i dont know why your getting all personally affended, but taking personal stabs is just weak, argue with facts and personal experience.


as for the rest of your crap, private message me and we'll continue



and let me just say

i'm sorry the cup holders arent perfect, would you care for a built in vibrator or dil%& for the seats?

maybe give george clooney a call and have him build you one of these bad boys, so i dont have to hear about cup holders

Well now the discussion seems to have gone from personal to making sexual suggestions. You seem to enjoy telling other people what they should be doing and doling out advice but you don't even follow your own advice. Here you are telling me I shouldn't be making personal remarks and yet you get more and more personal with each of your posts. You're a troll, nothing more, and nothing less. Nowhere in hemisport's post does it make it apparent that the entirety of the discussion is about cupholders a fact that you continue to choose to ignore. Nowhere does it say that Fords are better than Dodges, in fact he praises his Dodge and admits he wouldn't buy a Ford which is another fact you conveniently ignore so you can further this argument.

I might have made some personal quips at you but not of a disgusting sexual nature. You really should learn to grow up. These are forums, people will post their opinions on things, I see nothing wrong with 2011Hemisport's opinion in the least. He praises the Dodge for the powertrain, refinement, and styling and his only criticisms were of the 12v outlet placement, crew cab space, and amount of cupholders. I hardly believe he deserves the false judgments both you and oldjeep have made of him.

I'm just going to back out of this discussion. I'm done feeding the troll.
