Josiah, I totally agree with you. It's the people that want to drive (commute) pickups because they just want to, not because they actually have to like in your family's business. Then they complain about why gas can't be $1.02 a gallon anymore..
My dad used to have a 2007 Toyota tundra, and he needed it because he had to tow spas from our warehouse, to our store. Sometimes he would have to tow 3 at the same time. That's why pickups are so important. They are needed in small businesses.
We've had a few ford trucks and SUVs all being reliable and useful when we needed them. But yah most people don't need a big truck or truck at all.
Yep, it's my dads truck. I love it though. I wish it could be my first car, but that's not gonna happen.
Dillon, according to this you don't own a silverado, you own a Pagani tricolore and a koenigsegg Agera R? Haha
most midsize pickups and even compact pickups over the last decade had plenty of capacity to get done what average joes actually do. Not everyone has a 25ft boat or trailer. Its more of a problem of pricing and fuel efficiency. The compacts were priced right on top of the entrylevel full sizes, and they never improved the fuel efficienies
Full size pickups serve a huge purpose around here. I don't know what my family would do without our silverado.
Them, and the small ones are too car like I geuss, mabye that's why they got rid of them, couldn't tow enough
I don't like full sized pick-ups either, but I can see why they're selling... When people have certain jobs they need one... My dad use to have one cuz of his job, but got rid of it when he got a huge permotion... So their is a reason companies keep
@Ethan because nobody was buying them. Most buyers could've made do with a car, and they're not fit to tow/haul anything
I dislike all large pickups too...if they really cared about how the petrol levels in the world are diminishing....why would they discontinue the compact pickup?
I really dislike large pickups just an opinion... Maybe it's because I'm a Brit, maybe it's because I love and own cold hard supercars... But I just don't like it
Description: Granted it's not a complete redesign, but the 2013 model has received plenty of upgrades, mostly from within. Fuel economy, perhaps the most relevant issue to buyers today, is something that Chry...

Ford v6 ecoboost: 360hp, 350lb-ft torque, 22mpg. Where's the innovation here, Ram?
For a full size gas truck, a v8 or nothing. For a diesel yah probably a 6 is good.
There's nothing wrong with having a six cylinder truck, Hell I'd actually rather have an I6 for heavy towing.
Well Dustin, actually it's not the same. If you brought your dog in last years model it would not the be the same, but heavier.
76 pounds lighter? So if I brought my dog with me then it would be the same as driving last years ram.
The 6 cylinder is for light duty. Don't need 500 ft/lbs to drive and check gas meters and what not
It's commercial use trucks, you know the kind, ones that deliver flowers. Or haul once every 20 years.love my penstar, but think in trucks, fords 6 wins by landslide still
Well anyone who buys a full size GM, Ford, or Dodge with a v6 is well..... U get the point
I'm not saying I know more then anyone at Ram but how is 269lb/ft of torque enough in a truck? I know it's only the base with a v6 but still I expect more
Description: For those opting for the 395hp 5.7-liter Hemi V8 (which has an additional 5hp than the 2012 model), they'll also be treated to some new fuel-saving technologies such as cylinder shut-off and stop...

@Clint I just found out how much mpg's it get 10 city 18 highway. It's not bad, but still not as good.
@Mikey yeah I checked, you're right. My dad had a 6.0, ran like a bat outta hell but couldn't ever get anything better than 13mpg. From what I've drove, Dodges tow better anyway. Don't squat near as bad in the rear
@Clint it's a 6.2L, and I'm sure it does but it's still has class leading hp, but not that it matter cause I think the dodge has class leading towing ?
With the 6.0, which chugs gas faster than a college student downs cheap liqour
Are you talking about cylinder management? Chrysler has been using that since 2006 I think. They just haven't made a big deal about it like Honda.
The chrome looks good as its an American traditional thing. Even if your working the chrome looks good, not like it needs more maintenance than black paint geez.
Chrome is fine for a show-&-shine...does nothing for the "work" I'd wanna be doing with the truck
Chrome is great on trucks, they need it. The cheap models have black metal bumpers and grille.
There's a blacked out '12 Ram in town with the black projector lights, and it looks damn good. But this, not so much
See I like the two tone and projector headlights. But I wouldn't buy a truck, have no need for one. So I'm "that guy" if I was to get one...
Without all the chrome? Trucks are known for the chrome bumpers, side steps, etc.
Also not a fan of the projector headlights. They just don't fit with the rest of the styling.
I agree the chrome is a bit too much. I just blacked out almost all the chrome on my ram and it looks a thousand times better now IMO.
Please make this available without all the chrome, that's why I hate the newer F-150. No need to copy the gaudiness.
I have never really liked the ram styling. I have always preferred the silverado.
Yeah I don't really like two tone trim on any truck. Looks kinda tacky IMO but these are sweet trucks
I like the body style, but it's a little too I dunno, glitzy for my taste. I feel like I could build this myself with ebay headlights and grilles
Description: This gearbox is also available for the Hemi model, which is the main contributor to its also 20 percent fuel economy improvement. Chrysler will announce official fuel economy numbers at a later date. ...

Yah chrome bumpers, grilles, mirrors, and door handles sounds good. The brake lights idk.
I like chrome on the bumpers, step rails and grille. But only the signature crossbar part of the grille. The inserts behind it should be satin black. And no chrome around the tail lights. I think the 300's tail lights are hideous, to be honest.
I'm not usually one to do this but... The tail lights look a lot like the Chrysler lights with the trim, I think this might be what there trying to incorporate on at least 1-2 models of everyone of there brand
Not a huge fan of the trim around the tail lights, but I could live with it if I ever get one of these.
@devin I don't know about that one my uncle has a 04 RAM and that thing takes a beating. Took it to Zacatecas (Mexico) and those roads are nothing but stone and dirt, and the damn thing handle great !
I've watched a couple things on it and they weren't able to fix it after multiple attempts. I also know a couple guys in town that have attempted to have it fixed and attempted it themselves and gave up. So I'm curious what's your secret to fixing it
Death wobble sucks, but it can be fixed. The aftermarket and my garage are great for that...
It's better until the death wobble kicks in. Once that happens you might as well sell it or scrap it
Ford and chevy trucks beat any ram. But the cummins def kills the powerstroke and is much more reliable. Less moving parts with the inline 6. The duramax is a beast as well. Would prefer it over both
Ram trucks just look more aggressive than Ford. Even Chevy is more aggressive. Ford trucks are just too plain, not in-your-face like Ram. I want one of these.
I do like these quite a lot. I'd totally go for a new Ram for a full size.
I'm sorry but I just grew up against Fords I used to love Chevy but now I'm all over Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep/Ram/SRT
The bed is so small because most people that buy big trucks these days don't actually use them to carry or haul things. It stupid the gas prices are goo through the roof and yet we buy more full size trucks
Construction site or hauling x amount of bales of hay or whatever. Some people just want to be comfortable and I can't blame em for that. Cars are having more and more standard features nowadays. Might as well take advantage of it.
It doesn't say in the article that this is a work truck. But if I had the money, I'd buy a nice one like this. Why not? A lot of people will also have boats to tow or take some camping trips or help someone move. Not every truck is gonna be on a
Mikey why not enjoy the fruits of your labor. A man has to go all out on something like a house, boat, or even a car. For my b-day I bought a 2012 King Ranch fully loaded. So now I can eat my fruit everyday. Surely you have done the same
@Greg it's just preference, if you're towing something heaving I'm sure you'd prefer it to.
@Robert you look and sound like a angry baseball dad type haha, well unlike you I don't buy trucks to go grocery shopping and drop the kids off to the mall.
"keep it simple"??? That's the stupidest thing I read in a long time. Cloth seats..... Lol
I don't know what kind of a hill billy would appreciate the luxury and those buying such trucks with leather and sat nav and have an office job...well...why don't u get a job in construction or farming in that case
A relatively small percentage of people buy full sized trucks for work these days. A lot of people get them for their looks and "own-the-road" view from the driver's seat. So having a lot of luxury and convenience items in trucks is becoming more and more commonplace.
Kind of have to agree with Kevin on this one. Just keep it simple, cloth seats, manual, and a simple AM FM radio.
I like the push button. I agree it's a little over the top but it's one of the parts Chrysler is interchanging between models to cut costs.
Guys, they want you to drive this car in your Tuxedo to a special occation. Like a boss!! JKJK
What are you people on about? You obviously put a cup in the holder and use that to shift!
The material looks like my parents Honda element material, but if this is aimed at on the job workers, Idc
The new shifter seems to be that round knob on the dash. Very Jaguar style!
Gear shifter from a Jag?
No good thing ever dies? (cough) street big blocks..........
Yah I like trucks sometimes, but much rather drive a 3 series or something daily.
No good thing ever dies, except when gas is $7.50 a gallon and people are still commuting with an f'n pickup truck because they need to pull a boat trailer 4 times a year..
