Has anyone been shopping for a new truck? While sitting at the Dodge/Jeep dealer yesterday getting a new Jeep for my wife, I was idly flipping through the 2012 Dodge Ram Truck booklet, and came on this picture:
The photo description reads: "Contrast the vintage 1953 Ram Power Wagon military vehicle with a 2012 Ram Heavy Duty Crew Cab Big Horn, and you can see history in motion."
Nice to see, even though it looks like a later B1 model. The whole brochure is here:

WTF! "1953 Ram Power Wagon military vehicle"
Damn Marketing freaks, calling a Dodge M37 3/4 ton Military Truck a ram Power Wagon! Good Lord.

I'll have to go pick up a brochure (can't afford a new truck right now).

I second Will's comment, but cool nonetheless seeing that in the current truck brochure. Thanks for the post Carl.

I stopped and got a couple of those brochures. It'll be fun to stick those away with the other Dodge stuff. I should have gotten a couple of the old Camel ads from back in the day. Now I'll have to pay eBay prices if I want any.
Oh well, win some lose some.
