Ok on Saturday I took my 13 ram for service (1 free year otherwise I'd go elsewhere) and as I was shooting the breeze with my salesman I looked out and saw 1 single promaster.
Well I decided to take it for a spin, on a snowy, blowy, slippery day.
This was a 1500 low roof, no window 136" version
From the drivers seat I notice the radio. It's not the nice screen, with rear camera, instead sits a circa 1996 looking radio in its place. No big deal, I would get a rear camera anyway, but it was surprising.
Mirrors were adequate, infact maybe better than that. They were I say good
Driving was as expected, although I found the suspension quite stiff. I could see someone who is not hauling anything heavy to be looking for a little more forgiving ride in the 1500 version.
One thing that did annoy me was the layout of the driver controls
Too many levers, and that stupid laser cut key is very gm-esque. (Hopefully without the problems)
Wipers should be on the blinker lever, and that cruise control lever is awkward, goofy and in a stupid spot. IMO the controls should mimic the trucks.
I'm sure in time one would get used to it.
Other than that I liked it.
Oh yeah this was also without a divider.
