So the next time someone is looking at a Ram truck, you will be sure to tell them it's made in Mexico right? Just so the poster can make an informed decision. He may have an aversion to buying items not made in the USA. ;)
Before we start down that road, that question was pretty much settled over on the TurboDiesel Register forum way back in the 2nd generation Ram days. The overwhelming consensus was that the Saltillo built trucks were much higher quality than anything coming out of the now-defunct St. Louis assembly plant. Probably something to do with worker motivation.....

Thanks Rusty. You confirmed the point of my post. The country of origin does not necessarily dictate it's quality, whether it's Mexico, China or Canada.
To the OP, based on the responses from those that own a Curt hitch, you should be able to make an informed decision, regardless as to where it's made.
There are some that appreciate being informed. You Sir obviously have issue with anything I have to say and that is fine with me.
Both my 98 RAM's are made in USA and my son ones my first with over 380K and I have one sitting in my driveway with about 345K both AWESOME trucks.
If it were not for the CUMMINS I would most likely;y be driving a GM with D Max and Allison.
