The Reworked RAM Outdoorsman

For 2013 RAM has completed a major re-engineering job, both in exterior design and, especially, in performance features. The revamped 1500 Outdoorsman retains everything that made it the premier huntin’/work/do-everything pickup, but will roll into market (October) with almost-starship-worthy technology that ensures this RAM is just as perfect for highway cruising as it is for beating a trail into the backcountry. And not just that: It can do so even while delivering way more horsepower and torque despite slashing fuel use by 20 percent.

    you've got to be kidding. anyone that would design a 4x4 with an open differential i have to wonder about. i would hope the guys at dodge have more sense than that. i hope.

    Before you go to market be sure it has limited slip and/or lockers. Open diff is a bust.
