I've got to say, I'm surprised by how much I like my '04 1500. The last Ram I owned was a mid '70s short bed that I couldn't drive in the rain because the ignition would get waterlogged and cut out. I've owned a '69 318 Barracuda and a '70 383 'Cuda... I'm no stranger to Mopars. But after my experience with an '03 Liberty and especially the '05 PT Cruiser I swore I'd never own another anything related to Chrysler. So it's a bit of a mystery how I even ended up buying this truck. I blame alien abduction.
But I'm genuinely impressed. It was clearly not designed and built by the same drunks in charge of the economy cars. There are only a few things that make me want to slap the engineers. It's actually the first vehicle I've owned in a while that I don't want to fix any design issues. There's plenty wrong with the truck, but it's all PO stuff, not factory.
So, yeah, I guess I'm a Ram guy now.
