Years back, I bought a new Ford Lightning pickup truck, black. I had it for a couple of months, and went to a store 20 miles from where I live. I parked in a proper space, at least 15-20 spaces away from the nearest vehicle. I was in the store for less than 15 minutes. When I came out, there...

I've been looking at dealership websites, for Ram 1500 pickup trucks. It seems all the 2025 models come with that engine, that I have seen. They are "Discounted" to around $45k-$55k. The engine numbers look good with 420hp, and 460 ft/lb . But, the tow ratings suck, at around 5,600 lbs. Maybe...

Or, just bring back the 4.0 from my 1998...
There has always been the "What If It Hit A Rock" crowd, but, I have never seen of heard of it happening. Just get the short one, that doesn't rotate around, and it shouldn't be a worry.
