Seriously the 4th gen rams were good trucks when they were mad by Chrysler. Since fiat has taken over I've seen a rapid decline. Put a 2010 oe fender next to a 2018 oe fender one day.... the 2018 is flimsy!

I gotta say, the new rams have a cool feature in the back seat, it has a slight recline to it instead of being straight up. Still a smaller backseat than Ford though. I rode in one at the Houston Auto Show on their closed course. It was a cheesy pitch, but they did some cool stuff with them (bank, incline, decline). They "towed 12,000 pounds" with us in the truck. The "12,000" pounds was attached to a cable that would attach to the truck. This cable ran through about 3 wheels, but one of the wheels doubled up the line making the weight less due to mechanical advantage. Lol. We "towed 12,000 pounds" (max tow rating) in a fully loaded truck at no more than an idle. Hahahahaha. The sales guy was trying so hard to sell us on the weight we towed. I'll only give credit to the back seat incline. Their other features are what my F-150 has. Noise canceling glass, parks itself (well, mine could had I paid for the upgrade), the inclines and such were stuff I've personally done in my truck, and towing capacity will never be touched with any loaded vehicle. They do advertise a self leveling airbag system in the rear, which I haven't seen as a factory option on F-150's, but can be added aftermarket.
