Default 93 Power Ram

My dad and I had been looking for a truck for towing, and a truck with a plow. We had thought about putting a plow on the 95 4wd Ford F-150 he has, and put a hitch on it, but then this fell into our lap. Which works for us, since he bought the Ford to use as a work truck for a summer, then use it as needed, and get rid of it whenever he could. Anyways.

93 Dodge W150, Standard cab, Short bed. 318 Magnum, auto, 241 T-case, 3.55's, Chrysler 9.25 rear - posi, Dana 44 CAD front. Western Uni-mount plow, that has recently been completely rebuilt. Dual battery setup, and lots of Michigan rust. The old school gumball machine light, came off my grandpas 60's 3/4 ton International Plow truck he had.

Please excuse the burry pics. The rain was screwing with my camera.

Last night we hooked the 18' car trailer up to it, and took my sisted POS 2006 Sebring from our shop next to the house, to the storage warehouse 10 miles down the road. With the trailer empty, it pulled it great, it it wasn't there. With the car on there, it still did pretty good. REALLY need to get the front brakes figured out, and fix the trailer light plug, so the trailer brake controller can do it's job.

It pulled alot better than the 95 Lincoln Town car we were using before. With the trailer empty, the Town Car would bounce, and buck from the trailer pulling at it. With it loaded, it was hard on the brakes, and pushed the car around a little.
