Dodge may now have bragging rights for the biggest cab among pickups, but in the case of this loaded Laramie Mega Cab, I can't think of a win-win situation for the buyer. The Mayor of Truckville just got a little overweight, and it's not muscle. In my opinion, Dodge should've simply stretched the cab a few centimetres and call it the improved Quad Cab.

What I like:
It commands respect on the road
Tractor trailer towing capacity with Cummins engine
Spacious rear-seat accommodations, of course

What I don't like:
Voracious fuel consumption, even with the diesel
Darn near impossible to park
A longer Quad Cab would've been sufficient
