Remember the GM cars in, I think it was 57 or 58, where they tried to match Packards self leveling with air bags. Worked so well many were recalled and fitted with conventional springs after one too many times the car was found sitting lowrider style in the driveway or would be going down the road and suddenly start scraping pavement.

The Ram claim of inventing someting is nothing new. After all, Chrysler advertised their new gas saving "invention" in the 70s right after the oil crisis. That new "invention" turned out to be a lockup torque converter. Guess no one told them Packard's Ultramatic and Stude's Automatic Drive both had that feature in the early 50s long before Chrysler. I guess it is only fitting a division of the old Chrysler now has "invented" self leveling truck beds.
