and thats why you should get a ford, one day, youll go to drive your dodge, and suddenly, the whole entire outer exterior and interior will be gone, and all that will be left, is the undercarrige

loll, I work at hyundai, I drive a hyundai!. I never would roll into Dodge. If I buy a truck, it's only a Ford.

Dodge is my favourite brand!

 

Re: [ picture ] may be useful, a truck frame

Why was the truck stripped to its chassis? The chassis seems to have aftermarket parts such as airbags instead of coil springs.

They now offer air suspension from the factory.

 

may be, a project of dealer?

This is a frame of Dodge ram 1500 2014/2013,

These are the adjustable air suspension, on the highway, the truck is lowered automatically to save fuel and have better handling

I know that city buses usually have "kneeling" feature which lets the driver lower the front end of the bus to make it easier for people to get on and off the bus. Will the truck with air suspension lower itself to make it easier for people to get on and off? Some 4X4 trucks are so high that you need ladders or step stools to get on and off.

 

Sometimes manufacturers will tote things like these around to different dealers to show off some new tech to customers or something, though those are usually very clean and have polished parts. This looks like it was used and at one point and was a complete truck. May have been a vehicle that was in an accident where the frame/drivetrain was undamaged, being such a new and expensive vehicle insurance would have opted to replace the body instead of paying out for a new vehicle.
