Brian Chee’s Opinion of the 2006 Dodge Ram Mega Cab’s Design:
It’s the Jose Canseco of Dodge Ram trucks. It’s juiced, man, bigger than life and badder than just about anything on the road. And it looks great. For those worried that the Ram look was not scalable, you’re silly – this design, from the grille to the hood and fenders, was made to be big. Changes to the outside include an upgraded grille, with more chrome and the Ram insignia in the center, large rear doors and a design that features proportionally more glass – which gives the Mega Cab a very stylish design from the side. Inside, there are more compartments than your average kitchen, and the center console is so big you could stick a laptop on it. Inside the console, the area is divided, making it big and usable. Cupholders, storage and map slots abound; knobs are big and obvious. Perhaps one of the only design flaws is, indeed, inherent to its size: you have to reach for everything, because, well, that truck is just so darn big. Ron Perry’s Opinion of the 2006 Dodge Ram Mega Cab’s Design:
Dodge trucks are hands down the best looking trucks on the market. They are immediately distinguishable and very pleasing to the eye. They look tough and rugged but also have an air of style and class that competing trucks don’t have. The design is starting to look dated and a refresh will be necessary soon if Dodge wants to continue to lead the truck segment when it comes to looks. The Mega Cab design just makes the truck experience that much better. Having the extra room is great whether for the kids or the burly co-workers. The Mega Cab also provides additional storage for tools or materials you might not want exposed to the elements or that are valuable enough to be locked up. Thom Blackett’s Opinion of the 2006 Dodge Ram Mega Cab’s Design:
No arguments here on the need for more comfortable rear seats in crew cab trucks. They’re a necessity. Got it. What I don’t understand is why Dodge went from a poor excuse for a crew cab truck (the Quad Cab with small rear doors) to a truck with limo doors. Where’s the regular crew cab truck with regular rear doors? Are pickup truck owners that concerned with rear-passenger comfort? Do they need that much interior space, when they’ve got that, ya know, bed, bolted on back? I’m betting that most buyers, the same people who primarily use these vehicles for commuting and stopping at the gas station, will opt for a traditional crew cab truck that offers plenty of room and easier maneuverability.
