Uh, oh. I have forgot all about putting a flag on mine. Most of my vehicles have them.

Let me point out that I have no first hand experience with the Gen 5 1500. What I've read has been on 2500/3500 diesel forums, where some also has a 1500 as a car. Or sold their diesel and got a 1500. Also, I haven't really paid attention to what the issues are. Mostly electronics, I think. Hop...

Yeah, mine look great. Now that they're no longer on the doors of my 'Hawk, but in a box in the garage. But I must admit that I added an emblem to the back of it the other day. Where it used to say "Trackhawk" it now says "Limited. Why? Because it's by far the most limited Jeep I've ever owned.

But at least the neighbors should know that it's a Cadillac.

You're overlooking the possibility of also putting one on the hood, and another two on the expansive roof.

Okay, now you took it too far. Well, guess it wouldn't bother me either, as long as I didn't have to see them.

Well, one reason could be that they are apparently still ironing out various issues with the Gen 5 1500. Meanwhile, the Gen 4 is a well proven concept. And personally I would pay extra for the older and better looking version, no matter what.

I don't care for the current model, so I'd start with a Classic Tradesman and add options as needed/wanted. Although, the new model with the Tradesman black grille is starting to grow on me. For the Classic I'd definitely opt for the chrome appearance package. Do pay attention to gear ratios...

It's damn nice to live here where there are no lanes to split. And even if there were two lanes in each direction, there's no traffic.

This could be fun. Start packing.

One thing to maybe keep in mind is that the 1/2-tons are like cars with beds, and have very low payloads. 3/4-ton Rams are the real thing, but still with very low payloads, due to the 10K GVWR ceiling. I've had numerous pickups, but these days it's down to a Ram 1500 and a Ram 3500 DRW. Small...

And it's not even that far to go interrupt Bull's beauty sleep. Bring a loud one, would you?

Yeah, as long as it's still legal to laugh, we'll be fine. Hell, I'd probably laugh even more if it was illegal.

Uh, oh. Can NM handle another one like me?

Umm, wasn't that supposed to be taking place in 2021? We may be closer than you think.

It was the BMW crowd that started making me dislike the excessiveness. In addition to the obvious factory emblems on the back, there was often also a license plate frame and logos on the mud flaps. Well, I got it the first time, simply seeing the circular factory badge, as if the fact that it...

Yet you fell for it and called them "upgrades". (Sorry, couldn't resist).

Yep, less is more I think. After two years, mine says Dodge on the back, as from the factory, and there's now a Challenger emblem on the grille (on the right side) and that's it. No SRT emblems, no cat skulls, no nothing. And it still runs great, just looks cleaner.

Am I the only one here who likes using wheel nets?

Yes. But that fact has nothing to do with that I used to split lanes in L.A. traffic. Or, like what happened to a friend of mine. We weren't splitting lanes, just riding down a street when someone in a parked car opened their car door right in front of him. It was a Renault so he didn't even...
