I was looking at a new dodge ram 1500 parked in costco as a display last night and noticed two cast iron? donuts rubber mounted attached to the frame right under the drivers door. I couldn't figure out what they would be for except for vibration dampners. Does anybody know what these are?
Thanks.

 

they selling rams at the costco now??

and yes, that's the group opinion on the danglers below the cab.

 

Not selling them but they always have some vehicles in there on display for their costco buyers benifits. Thanks for the input.

 

I find that when shopping I always park out from the ground, not a fan of door dings. Does not absolutely prevent them but better than using my Handicap sticker, people confuse those spots or cart corrals. I see the 400 pound heart attack victim park there and spend 10 minutes moving all the carts away from his car proudly displaying his sticker and if I park there all those carts are not moved by me in my chair. Sorry short rant.
What I was getting to is when it is clean and shiney I see people checking it out either from their car which I prefer and some actually get out and look inside, that one bothers me, especially if they need to cup their hands around their fat heads and make a smudge on the window. Go to the dealer and do that. My wife cleans it she lets them have it when they do that or someone with a big *** belt buckle or steel zippers buttons, am I nuts?

 

That pretty much sums it up now don't it??? Just funnin' witcha.

 

72combo, I don't know what you are talking about, unless you think I was just checking out someones truck in the parking lot. In my post I said it was on display in the costco store. This is a dealer inventory truck that they park inside the store to show any potential customers that costco can get them a special price on new autos. I don't really check out any vehicles that people own unless of course it is more than 50 years old, then it deserves some looking. Thats why people drive that old of a car, so that it will get looked at. But I never touch, only look. So do you know what the donuts are for?

 

I had to take the donuts off to install my DeeZee nerf bars..
