Houston, TX checking in. Recently bought my first RAM 2500 to go with our first FW.
There are a few (heavy emphasis on "few") 4X2 3/4-ton trucks around.
But I would guess they are outnumbered about 100 to 1 in NE Houston.
Went to a large volume dealer on the NE side of town and they did not have one 3/4 ton 4X2 on the lot.
There is no need for a 4X4 here other than status, in my opinion.
I wanted a 4X2 for a variety of reasons - less money, less trans-axle to break down, more towing capacity, more cargo capacity....
In order to get the rear-end I wanted and towing/cargo capacity, I ended up with a 4X4.
Not sure what the attraction is in a region where winter is typically from 9 PM to 7:30 AM on January 17th/18th each year.
