The MDS probably helps the Hemi on the highway as well.

It probably depends on the region. Being used to seeing trucks everywhere, I was very surprised on my first visit to southern Ontario to see how few there were comparatively. There seems to be a bigger proportion of trucks in the west. Where I grew up, it wasn't unusual to see a parking lot looking like this:

Re: 2009 Dodge Ram 1500: No longer just for work

On a bike trip to the Gaspe a few years ago (Quebec), I was surprised at how few trucks there were on the road. There were mostly small cars, and almost no SUV's.

Ontario is more into FSP hulks. On a recent trip to Niagara Falls, Ont., I noticed that there were more "American" cars in Ontario on a percentage basis than in the US...
