    When you consider that the root cause of both problems (owning a Dodge RAM truck and driving drunk) is absolutely terrible judgement, this correlation becomes rather self evident.

      The vans are legit though. My mom has a '91 Dodge Ram 3500 15 passenger van that has gone all over the US hauling various groups of children, and that thing shows absolutely no signs of stopping any time soon with well over 350,000 miles on the ODO.

          Oh yeah, tons of em. I actually had a Dodge Ram 1500 conversion van that my girlfriend and I lived in for a summer. Allowed us to visit a bunch of national parks.

        Yeah 92 Dodge D250 diesel truck here with around 500,000 miles and I just barely replaced the original starter. She’s old faithful and towed 11,000 lbs over 1k miles this year. I am never tailgating or going much more than 5 over because I’m not a complete dick. Also its 6000 lbs dry weight so you should always give yourself stopping distance in case something goes wrong.
