    Those 2nd gen Rams are just beautiful. One of the finest trucks to come out of Detroit in the 90’s...

    Remember that the 2nd generation Ram is actually the first year in the Chrysler LH platform along with the Dodge Intrepid Chrysler Concorde and Eagle Vision!

    The first vehicle I ever drove was my uncle’s brand new ‘95 Ram 1500 4x4, short box with the 5.9L and Laramie SLT trim, in bright red. Mickey Thompson Classic II wheels with BFG All Terrains. It was a really sharp looking truck.

    I always loved this body style of dodge truck. I now own a black regular cab long bed 4x4. It's got the 5.9 magnum with 200k miles and still runs like new. I just need to go through and redo the suspension. And replace the front bumper. I got it off of my grandparents

    Friend of my Dad either restored or bought a restored 2nd gen Ram almost a decade ago now. An emerald green, V10 powered, single cab, long bed, chrome wheeled, 5 speed manual driven dream! Every time I see it it looks like it just rolled out the factory. Probably only drives it just often enough to make sure the gas in the tank hasn't gone bad..

    I had a 98 Ram I bought used with the 318 and around 230 000km on the clock.. Unfortunately the motor needed a rebuild.. was used harsh.. I to this day regret selling it cheap, should have had it fixed.. But now I have a 2013 Ram I adore.. I was a kid in 1994 when this truck came out and to this day I am a dodge boy

    Fun fact. 98 is the only year with the newer dash with a pullout headlight switch. They went to a knob in 99’. Also power outlet and airbag switch are in a different spot. Therefore 98 has its own black gauge bezel. Think twice before you break it pulling it out!
