I like the style of the new truck. The article doesn't say much about the new interior and I'm wondering how much room is back in the rear cab (quad cab version). I have a Megacab now and I would not give it up for anything less than I have now - I don't care what the vehicle looked like.
I'll bet this truck finally hits the right ride capabilities. I say that because all the other Dodge trucks ride like chuck wagons...
Overall a very good rating I'd say, and the writer's dead on that the Dodge Ram pays the rent for Chrysler. Love the look of the R/T, but I wonder if it's available in a Quad Cab. Another winner for Ralph! Too bad it didn't come out in 2008 cuz I'd have bought it.

Me too! That RT looks sharp and I don't imagine it's very expensive. While extended cab pickups are really practical for fitting in extra people, to me a real pickup has a standard cab and with only enough room behind the seat for your rifle!

We just got back from the Home (ramchallengetestdrive.com some reason this forum change the link) here in St. Louis and WOW what a truck. They had 3 test tracks mud, bumps and a high ... ramp. They also had all the other vehicles makes (trucks) so you can compare. This new Dodge Ram just blew them all away. Inside and out. Even if you are not going to buy a truck, You still need to check the Ram out!
Well if needed a truck the 2009 laramie would be it .The interior makes my 300c look sick , and the ingenious design of having tool boxes on the back fenders is simply brilliant .
