Needs the mud flaps, too.

You know our culture too damn well.

Up here, mudflaps (Yosemite Sam or otherwise) are required. Most, if not all trucks sold do not comply with the minimum tire coverage without them.

Mudguards

64

(1) A motor vehicle or trailer must have a part of its body, a fender or a mudguard that covers the width of each tire.

(2) The body part, fender or mudguard referred to in subsection (1) must be above each wheel and
(a) extend downwards at the rear of each axle or axle group to at least the centre line of the axle, or
(b) be a distance away from the ground equivalent to at least 1/3 of the horizontal distance from the bottom edge of the mudguard to the centre line of the axle, but not closer to the ground than 150 millimetres when the vehicle is loaded.

(3) In addition to the requirements of subsection (1), the following types of vehicle must be equipped with rear wheel splash and stone-throw protection that complies with SAE Standard J682:
(a) a commercial vehicle or combination of commercial vehicles that is registered for a gross weight of more than, or that weighs more than, 4500 kilograms and that is not a bus;
(b) a bus;
(c) a trailer.

(4) A passenger car is not required to have a mudguard.

(5) This section does not apply to a trailer designed and constructed for drive-on and drive-off low loads.

Top buttons on the right steering wheel pod

Still not as responsive as mechanical stuff.

Easier to operate than the switch on the stalk of the 2500/3500, though.

 

[polara71]

Since I haven't driven a small truck I can't compare but I understand where you're going with it

I really like the console "stick" on my Jeep. the standard PNRD fwd to rear movement and push left or right to manual shift. You don't need to search for it for manual up/down shifts. Buttons on the dash you have to find especially if you don't use them often.

I think there are too many buttons, pretty soon you'll need a "flight Engineer" to monitor everything. I've owned my Jeep for 11 1/2 years and I find myself still having to search for seldom used controls. Every time I take it in for servicing the tech will turn off auto headlights, auto high beam, auto windshield washers and if he does a computer flash will clear my user memory settings. The memory settings are a pain to re-enter. Mine are not that bad, but getting the seat, pedals, radio and mirrors set for my wife is pure guess work.

I still miss the console shifter and knobs for HVAC on my 2010. The screen was plenty big for me. too.

The features and controls are very similar to my 300C so the learning curve was minimal for the Ram.

Beautiful truck! How do you like the transmission shift knob? I would think it would take a bit of getting used to.

Like these?

My Challenger has a similar dash set up as the 10 Ram. I never gave it much thought as to how much the dashes were similar

Very nice Dodge Ram. Now that's a four door I could get used to.
