I told my wife that if we go home next year, I'm buying another Ram 1500 and putting the F-350 in the garage with the trailer. She laughed. I laughed. I think that means it's a go. :LOL:

Yea, I convinced myself that my wife is on board with the Ram, Lincoln, 300 SRT, Harley, and Chopper when I recently went out and bought a side by side.

I mean after all she does have a Rouge.

Yep totally on board!

Hey I get it. Bought mine a new X5 that she had wanted and then I realized just how expensive that thing would have been had I kept it. So it got traded off for the 23‘ RAM.
Now I have to get her something else but I am going to insist on nothing German, just Japanese or Korean for her next (and last) new car.

Just trying to be funny.

I tried that with my wife and got away with it (Honda Pilot) for a while…..

She is now driving a BMW X3 M40.

I’ve been to some very specialized training.

She broke me.

Ha, got it. Sympathy for you, but the M series is certainly nice!
As long as you can pony up about $5K for their extended warranty and have the disposable income for the other services, go for it.

I cant so I (politely) told her we can just get another RAM and enjoy the ride. It doesn't fit in the garage so she gets something else anyway.

I certainly don’t mean to disparage anyones choice cause’ that’s what our free country allows. Well, for awhile longer anyway.
Uncle Joe and Mayor Pete did not approve of either of our purchases…🤔😮

How could it ever die when people refuse to accept that 3.21 > 3.92 for the majority of people? :cool::ROFLMAO:

Because opinions, like yours, are what gives us good, or fun debates. I mean, based on your opinion the v6 option would be the better option for majority of people

If backing up a TT (or most any trailer), especially on grass or a loose surface and without 4x, would 3.21 give you less wheelspin?

I was turning a 90 degree corner (forward from a stop) the other day and there was a bit of gravel/sand on the asphalt. I "lit em' up (inside wheel) with the 3.92's. Wife didn't laugh, just gave me one of "those looks". Don't remember the 3.21's doing that as easy.

3.92 require a turn , gravel or sand with incline to to get wheel spin.

3.21 can spin em both on hot asphalt… have to be really careful and hold on. Momma has to hold on to her teeth.
