2009 Dodge Ram 1500: Light It Up

I went for an extended romp in the Mojave over this past weekend. After spending quite a bit of time in the harsh climate, you get dried out.

At about 1am, I woke up plenty thirsty even though I had been putting down the water all day. I stumbled out of my tent and out to the truck to grab a something to drink. I was pretty sure I'd have to hunt for the water in the moonless night, but to my surprise, the thing light up when I popped the hatch! It was like Vincent Vega opening the case in Pulp Fiction.

When you're tired, thirsty and just want to get back to bed, the little things like this are a blessing.

You're lucky all the drinks didn't fall out of the rambox from the Edmunds aftermarket holes.

Almost forgot to say: Another example of the best-designed Chrysler in years, even with the aftermarket altercations courtesy of a trailer hitch

Dodge knew it HAD to deliver with the new Ram..and they did.....now they need to do the same with their cars.
