smile If it snows this year it won't be stopping me, 1998 Dodge Ram SLT 5.2 V8 Magnum 4X4 and 2WD with high/low.It's the solid crew cab (6 seater) with the 8FT extended bed,it's about 21ft long, custom twin rear exhausts (instead of a single side exit)which gives it that loud V8 rumble smile. Just can't beat that sound and one of the reasons i bought it! Lots of torque and suprisingly nippy if needed. Recently fitted the rear bed Dodge stripes and will be having a service very soon.Not everybodys cup of tea but for me an itch that had to be scratched.

I love these but not sure I could cope with a left hooker in everyday use.

You can probably look over the roofs of Range Rovers in this so would LHD be a big issue?

Nope! I just visit the petrol station a bit more often! It's a 2nd car tbh, trouble is i just love driving it. LHD is not really a problem, but parking is.

Break it to us then.... whats the MPG?

I'm currently getting 12-14 mpg on my short round town commute in my 740i... hence using the Clio mostly!

Cheers guys, if you need to work out MPG then don't bother getting one! smile Actually doesn't seem too bad on a run, once you get it rolling it just keeps going.

I like that a lot but jesus it looks huuuuuge. Wouldn't fancy finding a parking space for it anywhere!

All the same must be useful having that space + 6 seats for shifting people and things around.

Very nice, Ram's are the best looking pick-ups.

Brave man going for crewcab and long bed too... LHD really isn't anything like the issue people think it is....

Enjoy smile

Awesome! Good colour choice too. I was looking at the Viper engined ones recently, they look like a huge amount of fun.

I have to echo the comments on LHD, on something like this it isn't a problem at all as you can see over the top of most cars.
