Default Its about time

Always been a Dodge fan, owned a 65 Coronet,383 with nitrous,best friend still has it. Anyway, finally paid off my Toyota Tacoma and swore I would never have another truck payment......well, two days later I went and test drove a 04 Ram Quad Cab 4x4 1500 HEMI with all the upgrades, so guess what I have again. Feels great driving the big boy on the block. J

[sm=smiley32.gif]Good to hear!! I trade my 95 VW diesel for a snowmobile! Then I figured that I had no way to get the sled to the trails! Hadda buy a Ram! 1500 Sport 4X4 Off-road package! Never looked back! Screw the 91 cent a litre for gas! (Not sure what that is in US, sorry my conversions are bad)

Best of luck with the truck![sm=smiley20.gif]

I turned it in, but I have the truck, a VTX 1800 & a Volusia, so I'm not complaining

When I first got my ram it felt absolutely huge to drive around in. But after a few weeks what I find now is that the dodge is normal and everyhting else is just really small. Funny thing is that since ive owned the Ram, people have stopped pulling out in front of me, cutting me off at intersections and all the other stuff that we do down here (apparently new zealand drivers are amongst the worst in the world) . Fanatastic

I am so used to driving HMMV's around that the Ram is not that big to me anymore.

Welcome to the forum!! I wanted a Tacoma for the longest time but then I saw the new Rams driving around and fell in love. So to speak.

when i started looking for a new vehicle i was actually looking at chev trucks. but once i saw the dodge, wow. there is nothing on the road like it. everywhere i go people stop and stare. it absolutley amazes me the amount of attention it attracts. The 2002-04 design is definately a thing of beauty.

I used to drive HUMMERS all the time, I was USMC, HEAVY GUNS. Not much bigger though.
If thats your truck then there are only a few differences, one being you have nerf bars, so I will tell you that you have a great looking truck. JP
