Attention Ram owners

[Benfromalbuquerque]

View attachment 254074I'll stick with my old 06 3/4 ton gas Ram.
Works hard but gets regular service.
180k miles and runs like when I bought her.
Don't need or want all that fancy new technology. Especially the emails from the manufacturer telling me my current tire pressure and when I need an oil change.
She should take care of me until I'm dead.

Bro, you ever run svo in the summer?

Not sure what that is?

SVO is straight vegetable oil. I think injector stuff changed ‘07 so you may be able to do that with minimal alterations.

Most Ram owners park outside anyway, that way all the neighbors know he drives a Dodge. At least the ones he hasn't told personally!

Yes, but when they drive it, they have to wear a paper bag over their head so no one will recognize them…

That would be all bad.
It's a gas rig

Oh! Yeah, all bad. I saw 2500 and thought diesel.

Nope. 3/4 ton with a Hemi.
Been a good rig.

Not to derail this thread but after 5 months my new F150 for work finally showed up at the dealer a few days ago along with 2 other work trucks. My shop guy went to pick them up and 2 out of the 3 didn't make it more than 2 blocks away from the dealer before they died.

How can they deem a 2023 Toyota Corolla the most reliable car? It's brand new! Can't call a brand new car the most reliable... Hasn't been proven at all

I believe it. They go forever, and ever and very few if any problems. I have had two. Has been that way for years as with a lot of Toyotas, pickup trucks especially. I guess you could get a lemon occasionally, but personally, I have never heard of one. I have a 2016 Toyota RAV4 Limited Hybrid and have NEVER had one thing go wrong since I drove it off the lot. I can’t say that about most new vehicles that I have bought, and I have bought a lot.

had the same in an f-250, never had engine problems. Those damn vacuum seals and auto lockin hubs are a pain tho. If you use your 4x4 enough be ready to swap those every 3-4 years.
