2018 ram pick up

-
I have had more than a few first gens. I still have the '95, only one of those I ever had. In my opinion, the bodies of the second gen are more solid, but I still love the simplicity of the earlier trucks. Only reason I have the 95 is the Cummins really.
My first gen will be a truck that dodge never made. Crew cab, short bed, 4x4, cummins. Will also cut the frame in half and graft a 2nd or 3rd gen front frame and suspension on it and probably use a 3rd or 4th gen interior.

Yea I have dreams...sadly my wallet supports very few of them. Lol

now there's a build I would like to see!! Have you done any of the research as to the two frames fitting together? Is it a "straight" graft with some flat plate or is it an offset situation?
 
I HATE the new Dodge Challenger, when it came out in 2008 I thought it be just like 1970, carbureted and all! I HATE the Demon, it should have NEVER been given the name "Demon" unless I could interchange tail lights with my 1972. I HATE the Dodge Rams, just because I HATE.:BangHead:
Why couldn't Dodge be like Ford and GM. EVERY SINGLE PART on the Mustang and Camaro was never changed since 1964 on the 'stang and '67 on the Camaro. You can interchange taillights, fenders, bumpers, interior, gages, glass, I mean EVERYTHING from every year, THEY did it right, while WE deal with change of body styles, and every change has been for the WORSE.:BangHead:
 
I've owned a 2001, 2003, and a 2015. Loved em all. My criticisms are petty and small, I just like the cross hair grill. The pig nose grill, and that big Freddie Mercury looking mustache grill on the rebel just doesn't do it for me. I wont lie, I was a bit sad when the grill on my 2015 wasn't attached to the hood anymore. See I told you, petty stuff.

I know of a few people who have done the frame graft, I guess certain 1st gen frames are taller than others but I know some of them are the exact height of the second gen frames so they just butt them up and weld em.
 
My '13 Express does just fine. I was raised in a Ford family, had 4 of my own. In '91 I bought a GMC. Went to visit my father with the new truck in Az. "What the hell are you driving?". "Dad, have you looked at the new Fords lately?". "Yeah .. I know what you mean. I couldn't drive one of those ugly things either."
 
Some douchebag texting on her phone plowed into my F150 I have a '17 Ram 1500 for a rental..I'll take my 8 year old Ford over the piece of **** Ram anyday...

yeah, tell us about the twin I beam pieces of s--- they used to make, I had 3 of the road walking turds. Or the pulleys will never line up again 352 and 390`s, or the get hot and blow the radiator cap off w/ 15 bales of hay on it . They never did figure that one out either! Or getting a ticket because it came out from the factory w/ no pass side tail light, just a dummy plate on it. Or blowing 11 clutches on a farm truck. Or being almost as ugly as the new chevys, NEED I GO ON ?!
 
I bought a 1980 Ford short step side for mileage so it had 300 six with 4 speed od and it got 15.5 mpg the first tank and dropped to 14 mpg after that. I owned it for about 3 months and it stayed in shop about as much as I drove it. I traded it off and swore I would never own another Ford. 30 plus years later I am still keeping my word. Buy whatever you want but I know what has worked best for me.

The city of Tulsa went ford because of ford under cutting to get there business. The new diesel trucks are getting 8 miles to the gallon, no matter how u drive them, so go tell somebody else ur b.s. !

My old ram was a lot of a truck. Let it go after retirement young man who purchased it updates me every couple of months.

wasn't your Ford a 3/4 ton? Kinda comparing apples to oranges aren't ya?
..all things being equal - I drove a '17 F-250, a '17 GMC 3500, a '17 Chevy 2500 and a '17 Ram 2500 - all 4x4, all essentially loaded - I did some feature comparisons (towing, HP blah blah blah) and after considering which one I liked best overall - I signed on the dotted line for the 17 Ram 2500. Runner up was the F-250, it's lower towing capacity and less appealing look (personal opinion) kept me from buying it.
Oh - and the over 400HP Hemi doesn't hurt my feelings at all :D - for a big truck, she's got some scoot!

I had a 76 ford 4 wheel drive that absolutely got stuck every time I got it in the med. I tpuled w/ the left front and right rear only when in 4 wheel drive. The chevy I HAD later would spin
all of them.
