    I can't speak for anything but the current base Ram, but I was offered a new 2018 4WD 1500 this year and said NOPE give it to the new guy. The quality of Ram interiors is pretty much crap. It's like they're designed to be leased for three years and taken to the dump in which they came from.

    Lots of things are outsourced.

    My Merc E320 was built by Daimler-Chrysler.

    plastic impellers are the norm... they are less likely to cavitate at higher rpm compared to metal

    You and @Sperrunner should both bring your frames to a car show. That would be the most hilarious shit ever.
