    I liked the spoiler when I had my SRT10 Ram and the ones I've seen on the Xrunners don't look bad. It's the shopping cart wing that bothers me.

    That wing makes the bed useless...it's completely pointless to have on a truck.

    Some Wyoming Cowboy needs to kick his A$$...or at least rip that crap off the bed of the truck for the Tacoma's sake.

    x2 ... but to each their own I suppose.:rolleyes:

    A spoiler on a truck is kinda like a dick on a chick.

    No doubt it's pointless... I'm just saying from a purely aesthetic standpoint I like the way the spoiler looks on the Daytona Rams. From what I remember they were removable with a few bolts.

    Plus it's a Dodge... you put anything in the bed and it will just fall apart anyways :p

    On a related note... they are offering NO-CHARGE Cummins engines up here on the Ram HDs... otherwise a $9,000 option. Man they must be desperate to move trucks!

    That is the truck. Same tail lights. Looks like the superbird resurrected in truck form. It sure isn't very practical if you want to use the bed.


    That was a funny? :p The front and rear panels of my bed cover are open. :rolleyes:

    whats next? a huge chromed muffler hanging out the back with a super small outlet hole that sounds like a Folgers coffee can filled with mad bees?

    ROFL, a spolier on a truck...

    Spoilers do not belong on trucks (or any other vehicle) unless you spend a lot of time at very high speeds, or you are a legitimate racer, or you are trying too hard to be cool and special just like your stupid friends.
