You're not mistaken, I would have a '15 right now if they were available. I've been following the conjecture over the '15 options for some time now and decided that it wasn't worth the wait and lack of incentives. I settled for a '14 last weekend and couldn't be happier.
Rick start a thread on your new ride. Pictures!!!!!
Congratulations!
I keep holding my breath for the RAM Dually rear air ride. :(
In one of the videos that Mr Truck did he described the air system.
It sounded like it was nothing more than a set of air bags on a conventional spring suspension with a level control.
Something that many 2500 hd trucks have as an add on but without the level control.
Maybe someday someone will see one and verify what the system is.
It is a $1600 option so I doubt it is a full air suspension like the big guys have.
From what I have seen it has a single leaf with a big bag on each side.
