    Buy a Raptor and call it good.

    Kinda like how Dodge is owned by a Italian company?

    Legal ownership really doesn't matter anymore. If the company has a US headquarters, pays US taxes, employs thousands of US people, uses US parts, manufactures in US plants...it's American Made.

    The Ram with air springs might work for you. The lady is a bit kooky but shows what it can do. I've had great luck with my Ram. https://youtu.be/YgJ_wJ0Fzmo

    That's really interesting. I wonder if it will drive at all at parking height.

    My Dodge is pretty swanky. Power everything, satellite radio, remote start, etc. picked it up used for less than half of the original sticker price. Rides smoother and quieter than any Ford or Chevy I’ve owned. I’ve made two trips to Houston and back and it’s awesome out on the highway. Kind of wish the bed was about six inches longer.

    Also, you could look into a 2WD. Should easily clear the garage door and used ones around here are pretty cheap.

    Minor hijack.

    How the hell does a Honda Ridgeline classify as a truck? I have seen a couple dozen of the new ones recently, and dang, they are ugly. They look like someone chopped the back half of a mini van off and called it a truck. Hell, they even advertise an "in bed trunk". It really is a van. FWD or AWD only. And it's a unibody w/ independent rear suspension. It's no more truck than a Subaru Brat yet was a Motor Trend "truck of the year finalist." WTF?

    IT DOESN'T. It's a Honda Pilot with a bed.

    But hey, these days you can say a dude is a chick and everyone is supposed to just go along with it.

    Hey, maybe a re-badged Nissan?




    The Raptor has a lot to offer, but I wish they had other engine options.
