We were breaking stories like madmen at Detroit, after our world exclusive drive through Cobo we went to see the 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 to have the world's first tailgate using the awesome new RamBox feature. And who volunteered to down the first bottle? Why that would be Dan Bodene of Chrysler Communications. Drink it down boys.

Dan "Jethro" Bodene.
This box is made to hold beer?
I like it. At least it's in the back seat.
Does he usually stash his alcohol in places around the house?
You communications executive drinks, because you cry.
is that container eve open??!? tricky... and interesting edge dancing to pose with beer... easy snowball scenario of condoning this act... etc.. stupid legal
Something is fishy here. This was up briefly yesterday, enough for 2 comments, than disappears to reappear now?
The hamsters powering this place must be drunk, off beer from their truck/cooler.
Your
No one who owns a suit also drives a Dodge Ram
Cooler under the back seat??? Toby Keith is in the wrong truck!
@peabody3684:
Not only can you not tell if it is still capped, but it is about an inch from his lips.
Legal bullshit....
I'd wager, 'cause I live in Vegas, it's empty, was probably an O'Douls, anyway, and hasn't touched the lips of any person.
And because of this, I just watched the Kids in the Hall's "Daddy Drank" sketch, mentally replacing daddy with Danny. He doesn't wear quiet shoes, does he?
@fatbraff: I do.
I try to dress sharply every day, and I do keep my Ram in the commuting rotation. I have actually gotten weird looks on campus when I jump out of my beater Dodge Ram.
Taking it to dinner in Palo Alto is also pretty satisfying, at least in my own mind.
@stu-rock: yeah i know what you mean..i get the same feeling when i park my M3 outside julian's for dinner...oh..wait...

@m3_of_doom:
Inverse: try taking your Benz through the crummiest drive-thru in town, dressed in your most-stained-and-torn sweats... and no one bats an eyelash. Is that just L.A., or is the whole U.S. of A. selectively blind about cars and drivers...
@Charles_Barrett: well, while i do frequently take it through fast food drive thrus, i'm rarely super cruddy..i do show up at the dealership to get my oil changes in cut off shorts/dirty pants and the most wrinkled shirt i can find, just to force them to call me sir when i look like trash...it's the little things in life..
@SpeedWagon: Good one!
Yeah, that's faker than fake photoshop. I hope he's not planning on going into the Mime biz, because he is so not good. That wouldn't even be a good pictionary or charade clue for "drinking."
With the back seat box I don't think its sex they are using to sell this truck...
Wait I thought there was a law that says something like no open alcohol containers in the vehicle, and something like DUI? or was I just dreaming when I got arrested?
I used to work with a guy (I didn't care for much) that had a Dodge Ram and he couldn't have been more proud. One day we were unloading equipment from it and I noticed it had cup holder in the plastic liner on the tailgate and mentioned it. He beamed and had some cocky response about how great the truck was. To which I replied "It gives you someplace to set your beer while you're waiting for a tow."
Well it was funny at the time...
So they ripped this off from the Honda Ridgeline... big whoop.
