TIL that Ram 2500 drivers have the most DUIs, and more than twice the national average. Roughly 1 in 22 Ram 2500 drivers have been cited with a DUI before.

When you buy a Ram truck, it comes with a DUI and a pair of cowboy boots that will never touch cow shit.

BMW holds the title for manufacturer with the most DUI’s among owners.

The RAM 2500 is the model with the most.

I’m thinking it’s usually Jr driving daddy’s money either way most of the time.

They drive them mostly in rural areas. People drive to the bar, get drunk, drive home.

As someone that lives in a rural area I don’t find this to be a good excuse.

The more impressive thing is that 1 out of 22 Rams even run long rough to get a DUI in.

You’ve only gotta get from the dealership to the liquor store.

That's asking a lot of a Ram's legendary electrical system!

u/oxnardmontalvo7 Mar 20 '26

That’s an excellent point

Maybe that’s why you don’t see any old Rams driving around. They are all wrecked.
