who makes the rules about pickups
0:10
anyway there's a new pickup that breaks
0:13
all the rules and it's from Dodge rules
0:16
like four-wheel anti-ock brakes are for
0:18
cars not pickups Dodge is the first and
0:22
only full-size pickup to offer four
0:24
wheeel antiac brakes
0:28
[Music]
0:30
it used to be that for serious torque
0:32
diesel was the only choice not with
0:36
Dodge not only did Dodge offer the
0:39
hardworking turbo diesel but there's
0:42
a full series of Magnum engines all the

0:54
comfortable this new Dodge Ram has the
0:57
widest seating area of any full-size

pickup
1:01
and who said that airbags and pickups
1:03
don't go together Dodge puts a standard
1:06
driver side airbag in every pickup it
1:14
builds offers the most powerful line of
1:17
pickup engines in the industry beginning
1:19
with the Magnum V6 with more horsepower
1:22
than any other six-cylinder and a full

sizee pickup next you step up to Dodge's

Chevy a couple of years ago when design
2:49
office first moved into the CTC complex
2:51
being among the first of the arrivals
2:53
here a lot of what you see behind me was
2:54
under construction and we soon realized
2:57
that we had a great opportunity to do
2:59
some research on on how people use their
3:00
vehicles how they use their pickup
3:02
trucks we had a whole lot of Tradesmen
3:03
out there and we asked a designer to go
3:06
out there with a Polaroid camera and
3:08
shoot just what kind of clutter did they
3:10
have inside their vehicle how where do
3:11
they put their coffee cups and so on
3:13
Dodge Ram is loaded with features
3:15
pickups aren't supposed to have like a
3:18
full complement of easyto read
3:20
instrumentation door handles controls
3:22
and switches that are easy to operate
3:25
the heating and air conditioning system
3:26
is quiet fast and uses a new environment

L friendly R 134a
3:32
refrigerant how many times have you
3:34
tried to jam cargo somewhere in the cab

bed well this dodge has all the answers
3:46

3:56
allows you to lock valuables inside the
3:58
cab there's also a glove box door M
4:02
pockets and a retractable cup holder
4:04
sized for coffee cups and big enough for
4:07
the largest super siiz cup if there is a
4:09
rule that says a pickup is not an
