2009 Dodge Ram 1500: 3 Things

Ram Rear view.jpg

Here are three things I like about this new Dodge Ram. 1) The aftermarket looking exhaust pipes that run straight out the back. 2) The sound of the Hemi through those pipes. 3) The automatic transmission. It sometimes is too eager to kick down but during normal driving upshifts are smooth and downshifts almost imperceptible when slowing to a stop.

Hey! The Canyonero was designed solely for soccer moms, not actually hauling things like that mopar! That was a low-blow jay.

Are all the radio presets country music yet?

I wonder how visibility is with those three huge rear headrest in your way? Can you flip them down or remove them?
