    I think pricing looks great.  A 3500 Limited Megacab is basically a full-blown luxury car interior, but this is a luxury car that can tow your house! And it still costs less than an S-Class

    And it's available in brown.   They should bring back the name Imperial and put it on the top of the line 3500 Limited Megacab.

    As some may know, I am definitely a "Ford Man".  

    But, as it is right at the moment, I am working in sales at an FCA dealer.  I have for the past year.  I had no qualms doing so because I grew up in Mopar house as much as a Ford house as a lad.

    So, on the new Heavy Duties from Ram.  I believe they will be as big a hit as the 1500 was last year.  It took me a while to warm up to the new '19 1500, but I didn't have that with the '20 HD.  It is definitely a dynamite looking truck.

    It doesn't appear to climbing up too high in MSRP and capability should be at least as good as the outgoing model across the line.

    All in all, I am happy to be where I am at right now.

    • You (personally) might not understand how LIVID I am with MAGA, Trump and all this shyte going on down.   You (personally) might not understand how MOST Canadians are LIVID with MAGA, Trump and all this shyte going on down. And (YOU) in general speak to mean Americans... But we are.  (We) as in MOST Canadians.  American media does NOT give you the facts. American media disguises what is happening between our countries but also masks what Trump and his administration has been doing to jeopardize and sabotage the Canadian economy. Also, American media also plays the victim card when Canadians lash out and call out Americans. To boot, American businesses, forget American Trump appointed politicians, real American businesses with real deal Americans shame blame Canadians for reacting the way we are  in boycotting American products etc. American citizens were shocked when Canadians were booing the American national anthem during hockey games and  were angered while IGNORING the fact that Trump was insulting OUR Prime Minister while ALSO threatening annexation.  And I have @ccap41 also taking offense by that fact that I continue to bash Americans.  Well...PHOQUE YOU!!! He has an avatar CONDONING HIS PHOQUING PRESIDENT'S WORDS. I CANT EXPRESS MY ANGER TOWARDS AMERICANS WHILE HE CAN INSULT MY PHOQUING EXISTANCE AS A SOVEREIGN CANADIAN???!!! Can you KNOW UNDERSTAND THE HYPOCRACY of YOUR phoquing people towards Canada and CANADIANS being LIVID???!!! We as Canadians decided to stop visiting Vermont, Vermont businesses want us back...  But in their apologetic TV advertisements its just them complaining that they are going out iof business and want us back because our business dollars arent there anymore...  New York State and California tourist adverts apologize for Trump's behaviour, but they too, NEED Canadian dollars because THAT is what the adverts say.  They need Canadian money to stay afloat? Sorry but fix your phoquing problems. Canadians do not want to be arrested and detained... Yeah about that... Yes...Innocent Canadians have been detained.  Your news does not cover those stories... Florida politicians and Kentucky whiskey distillers openly mocked Canadian money... Now that there is no Canadian money, these phoques now say that its not fair and Canadians are not playing nice. You guys have NO IDEA how livid we are. But forget how livid Canadians are. I know there are protests against Trump. But its not enough. TOO many Americans are still passive on what is going on.  And THAT makes me even MORE livid...  I apologize about my insulting you (personally) and others that are not in the category that I have been pissed at.  When I say phoquing Americans this and phoquing Americans that,  do not include yourselves then.   But you REALLY have to understand the severity of US/Canada relations. Its not just about losing the Jeep production in the Ontario factory and Canadians losing jobs at stake.  Its severe as it is. But IMPLICATIONS of Trump saying he wants to destroy Canada's economy (yes, he REALLY did say it like that) so that Canada will become the 51st is..is... well...war. My swearing and calling you phoque this and phoque that is quite phoquing mild as to what your president has done. It has also caused MAGA mad enough to want to try and put American soldiers on Canadian soil.  And no, it aint just tik tok red necks that say this. Red State politicians want American soldiers on Canadian soil...   Thank you. I will. But if I get triggered somewhere somehow. Please allow for me to rant.  I do have hatred for some Americans. But that pains me.  I also use STRONG language to put fire in YOUR asses so you guys COULD fight fascism in YOUR country. Its self serving as like I said, YOUR shyte might come into MY country if YOU guys do NOT fight it in YOUR country fast enough...     
    • We'll my friend, due to work, I could only laugh as I was in a meeting and now can reply to you, yes you do see that I also gave credit to Canadian folks that teach things to the U.S. as well as vice/versa. I take no offense to Phoquing this and that, I was hoping you would see the point I was politely trying to make, instead you thought I am too dumb to understand your use of dumb American, phoq America, etc. After all these posts, I get it you are angry with Idiot47, those that support him and the stupid tariff war he started which he blindly thinks will be MAGA approach to his own crimes of being a pedo, fraud, thief, etc. My point is I and I think others here appreciate you posting outside media coverage of our country, but those still here posting are neither dumb or phoq's and as such, a little respect to discuss and talk about the MAGA Idiots that are destroying the country. Many of us are college educated at least 4 years if not more and so we can handle a civil discussion at more than a 5th grade level like Idiot47. Yes, I continue to not use his real name as he has chosen to not use other names, but I prefer to not use foul language to get my point across. Since I am neither running for office nor have any interest in being president though I am eligible for that, I leave it to those that are running for higher office to use social media to capture those with lower IQ / education that need to be talked to at those levels.  Again, please continue to post your outside media coverage as many here find it interesting, lets discuss what has affected this country and how it affects the auto industry. Look forward to your next amusing post. David Amazing is all the Canadian plated auto's from Vancouver BC here in Seattle and at the local train stations to go into the city for the Baseball game today. Did not know that so many folks from north of here were Toronto Blue Jay fans.
    • Absolutely.  Fantastic.
