Dodge Ram Mega Cab

Had a chance to sit in one these trucks today. Wow! what an impressive interior.

From the outside the truck looks bigger and longer but when you sit inside is incredible how roomy this truck is. There is so much back seat room.
You can cross your legs. Move around, recline the seat. When you recline the seat it is like sitting in a lazy boy chair. My only complaint out back is that there is a little shoulder room loss when you recline the seats.

I was not sitting in the top of the line model but the dash is really well thought out, clear and easy to use controls were smart. I also somewhat liked the fake dash wood. Materials where good. It would be interesting to know how well the interior holds up.


Overall very impressed. General Motors needs to bring out one of these types of models or they will lose sales to Dodge and the upcoming Toyota which will be massive in back.

I dont want or need a full size pickup, but I really like the new 06 Ram. The interior is greatly improved, and the Mega Cab looks pretty good in person.

I agree these trucks are impressive, but DCX is behind. Now that everyone is worried about gas milage and the environment they come out with a bigger ram and bigger cherokee, the market is shrinking for bigger vehicles cant they see that?

Re: Dodge Ram Mega Cab

I'm not a big Dodge fan by any means, but it looks like a pretty sweet truck.

Definitely looks like a nice rig, I just can't imagine piloting something even longer than my Sierra crew cab.
