    Difference between the RAM 2500 and 3500.

    Apparently, this is a secret because a Chrysler dealership in Halifax cannot seem to answer. When I am pricing the two, the 3500 is 5K cheaper even with the dual wheels. Is it because the 2500 now has coil over spring in the rear..which btw, reduce both it's towing and hauling capacities.. thanks

    Why the "wedge" designation..

    I saw a car this weekend and was told it was a numbers matching "wedge 340"... I did a quick search and found on allpar, that "the 340 and then the 360, both came with wedge chambers". Is this what it means and then my 360 is one as well ? Thanks, Ian

    Does the fuel tank need a vent..

    When we pulled all the pollution crap off the car, I just plugged the vent. We has suffered no problems with drivability but reading one thread on his car lunging, it has started to make me think. Should I unblock the tube and stick some sort of filter on it ? Thanks Ian.
