also as nice as the 2019s are-(I mean like the upper model interiors are nicer than most luxury cars)- some owners are very fond of the 4th gen. trucks and if they want a new 4th gen. then time should be running out. I love my 2012 and don't expect to be looking for a new one until maybe 2025...

the butt is a material used that is much harder than the metal it is stamping so it doesn't wear prematurely-there are other names for the die cutting parts. Some very expensive and rare metals are used depending on the rolls of steel or aluminum on the line. I was also a crane operator and some of the steel rolls I loaded were in excess of 75,000lbs. A.G. Simpson was the stamping plant in Oakville Ont. I loved that job!!!

To put it in proper perspective, its titled as a 2019 vehicle, however, its an exact copy of the latest edition of the 2018 Ram. There's some great deals available on these trucks......

Truck is 4th Gen, manufactured and marketed as 2019, titles as such. A lot of people like the Classic look over the MY 19 DT (5th Gen)

I like them both. However the 2019 5th gens really impress me. Maybe next year I'll really look into one.
