Not true, I had my first Ram, only a week old, on a lift that collapsed. Bent truck in half. Frames are formed now in a way that proper frame jig, heat applied in correct way, and a well trained technician can repair to factory spec with no residual problem. Since it was dealer fault, my and thier attorneys decided to fix and then take to frame specialist a few hours away, who happened to be a friend of mine. If truck was off by any measurements they would replace with new truck Long story short, frame was better than when truck was delivered to me. I drove for years with loads, no adverse tire wear, no shimmy, truck tracked correctly on all roads. Separate, I replaced my bed with southern rust free, painted to match 8 foot bed for $1200 total. Someone will get a great deal on this oneIf the frame is bent she's a goner. If not then a bed swap and probably a few odds n ends could fix it cheaply enough if you're a good diyer. How's the fuel tank look? what kind of shape was it in mechanically and mileage wise?
