Article - Ram Dakota Might Dethrone the Ford Maverick

[Stealth Raccoon]

I sincerely double anyone can offer anything for $20k - you can't even get a cheapo compact SUV for $25k. Not joking when I say I think the only companies that have a chance at a sub-$25k competitor is Jeep on the Compass platform or Honda on their HRV platform (dare I even say Nissan on their Kicks?).

What I have experienced with dodge vehicles over the past. Nice looking but lacks a quality build. Thus I would never buy another dodge.

I've owned enough Chrysler products over the years to know that I'll never buy another. As of right now, there is no competition for the Maverick.

I did own a stepped 1987 Dodge Ram that worked well. But I also owned a Dodge Power Wagon that was POS...

I think this thing is fugly

Dethrone is funny wording. Maverick is 2 months into its first model year and they use the term dethrone Haha

After reading and watching the vids all I got from it was Ram is bringing out a mid-size frame on truck to compete with Ranger, Colorado, Tacoma, etc. .
Ram has had nothing in the market to fill that bill since 2011.

The good thing by Chrysler was the 1964 hemi

My father has owned enuff dodge products over the years an i tell him why u keep buying junk? Lol nothing but problems .2 months ago his texas ed ram had to have a update for the transmission it kept saying it was in reverse when in drive an neutral when in park .then the battery drained because the whole console wont shutoff when u turn off the truck, it runs all the lights an radio all night until the batterys dead in the morning an hes taken it back 2 times an just got it back again.an this truck is new with less then 300 miles on it. Thats just pure garbage if u ask me .so i agree with ya 100% we dont even know if there fix for the battery drains gonna hold up becuz it didnt the last time ,it started doin it again after 3 days .lol

I don't even like the name Ram

Looks like most of the new "small" trucks will be more like the Australian Ute's with the Mav being the only truck looking truck. Here's the Australian Holden Crewman. Not a bad looking truck I guess. I think I'll keep my Mav.

Price and MPG are the big sale points for the Maverick, Ram doesn't have either.... Just clickbait for the online mag.
