We were traveling home from a vet appointment on a rainy day with average visibility going about 60 mph down the Highway 34 in Iowa. I was in the middle front with my Rat terrier next to me buckled in the front passenger seat. My husband was driving and our son and our Airedale terrier were secured in the back seat. We were in the left hand lane and off to my right side I noticed a white SUV gaining speed coming down an on ramp. There was another dark colored SUV just slightly ahead of us in the right lane. The white SUV just kept increasing speed and merging over closer and closer, it nearly rear ended the SUV that was in the right lane but instead continued moving left, right into us! My husband was honking and accelerating and even moved to the shoulder to try and avoid being hit by this reckless individual, but it was in vain. They hit right into our passenger door. Never swerving, jerking, or losing control my husband corrected and got us back on the road instantly. The SUV however lost control hit 4 other vehicles, casting them into the median and ditch, before it jumped the median itself to flee the scene. Thank God no one was injured, not us, not the other people hit by this criminal. The moral of the story is that of the 5, or more vehicles hit, cars and trucks alike, we were the only ones who were able to maintain control and keep moving forward, out of harms way. None of us felt more than a bump, like hitting a minor pothole. We were able to drive home, not everyone else was, tow trucks had to be called. This truck has kept my family safe and calm in more than one incident. I trust Dodge Ram with my family's lives. Oh, and in case your wondering, they caught the person responsible for the hit and run a few months later.

Well, the bridge to get onto the island is quite high to accommodate the shrimp boats, so bringing a 6' armoire home from the thrift store was exciting. There were three adults in the front seat (fit great), and all we had was string to hold it in over the open tailgate. It worked though, no casualties.

We bought the truck used. It was detailed from the dealer. However when my husband has kin people come into town, he likes to take the truck to the automatic car wash. When everyone's inside the car and the washer is going, my husband rolls down the electric window. The new ones get so wet, but the seats are fabric and they dry quickly.
