    Ram Trucks. according to research, these vehicles are the most likely to be driven, and wrecked, by a drunk driver. People who instinctively idolize an animal that solves it’s problems by smashing them with it’s face… probably not the best people to drive near.

      Living in Australia where US trucks really don’t go on our roads well, I can attest to Ram drivers being the most dreadful drivers here. As we’ve come to call it, Emotional Support Vehicles.

      Among Truck drivers, Rams are usually the objectively worst vehicle for doing trucking activities on a per yearly model basis. So it kinda makes sense the dumbest people with trucks aren’t the ones who know anything about truck capabilities either.

      It’s got nothing to do with any weird animal symbolism bro. Thing is, dodge will finance absolutely anybody. And dodge makes a fun vehicle until it breaks down.

          It’s like 50/50 lol. My brother has a 20+year old Ram, no problems. My Ram went tits up after 4 years. But my Charger ran like a champ until I sold it. If I’m ever in the situation where I can justify a fast car again, it will definitely be a another hemi. As far a trucks go tho, I’m a die hard GM fan these days.
