    I’ve heard that people who drive a Dodge Ram are most likely to have a DUI on their record.

    For real. Might have changed since then though.

            Because some people only live inside their tiny little bubble and can’t think outside of it. So therefore if I don’t have a need or want for a truck then no one else should.

              That only works if what you want doesn’t also affect other people. If you buy a giant pick up truck that endangers other people, for no other reason than your own ego, you’re probably an asshole.

                Your world view is so tiny. You don’t know shit.

                You’re probably an asshole. Only because your own ego is so great and your own mind is so limited you can’t take time to think outside your own tiny little box.

                It’s sad really. Also don’t leave your house ever. Your actions endanger other people.

          Have you never had to tow a trailer? Haul lumber or stone? Bring home a large appliance or furniture? Help a friend move? Or are you just assuming anyone who uses a vehicle you don’t need is an asshole?

            Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. None of those needed or would have been better with a pickup. Have driven a pickup as well. Was pointless and crap.

      It was BMW drivers, rams were a close second to Tesla in driving incidents and highest overall combined incidents and dui.

        Saw that recently as well. Wondering if the stats are US versus the world. BMWs just don’t seem common enough in the US to hold the top spot. Unless every driver is constantly tanked at all times.

        At least the alcoholic grindset yuppies are well represented by the BMW 4 series and Audi A4 in the top 5.

        Absolutely zero surprise of Ram trucks being #1. The only vehicle that has ever crashed into me was a Ram. All the tires were mismatched and the driver came to his deposition with alcohol on his breath. They’re a fun bunch, those Ram drivers.

          I’ll rarely see Rams used as actual work trucks. At least around me, it’s all Fords and Chevy. And if it a Ram, it’s got a Cummins in it. Hemi is weekend warrior shit.
