Well, that combined with the fact that it's a 4 door truck with a tiny bed. Make a 2 door version and make the bed usable. Sales will go up.

Small uni-body ram truck you say?
As I like to say, either they don’t care to know, or they know, and don’t care. Perfect description of about half the population these days with regard to those weird “fact” things.
My bigger concern is that you have 100+ people sitting shoulder-to-shoulder as well as important equipment and the potential for a stray bullet to impact either. I guess with depressurization, the worst case scenario is likely that a cockpit window is blown out, people put on masks, and the airplane descends rapidly…
Subsonic .458 SOCOM will put a nice dent in that door, and scare them with the muzzle flash 600 gr (39 g) RN304.8 m/s (1,000 ft/s)1,811 J (1,336 ft⋅lbf)
Subsonic doesn’t mean shit either. It’s all about inertial energy...
Very fair point, though probably still no worse than putting holes all the way through things. I think if you’re shooting in a cockpit you’re already having a super bad day and the type of round you’re using is the very, very least of your problems. But, yes, again, it’s all a terrible idea.
I mean I would totally agree if we’re talking about a bus driver or something. But honestly if you told me I was going to be a flight with a hijacking attempt with presumably 9/11-esque intentions and my options are a pilot with a gun and minimal training or a pilot with his bare hands trying to thwart an attack, I…
I do have that close quarters battle experience, and I hate the idea of people with full-time day jobs trying to do it. However, and it’s been a while since I took aero, I’m not sure I care all that much about putting a 9 or 10mm hole in a jet that’s only pressurized to something like 11-ish psi. I just don’t think…
So uh... Depending on the arrowhead used, compound bows can have better penetration than 9mm bullets or even .22 bullets...
Captain Finally I Get To Bring My Gun In The Cockpit sounds like Southwest, Frontier or Spirit material.
This is the same TSA that missed the gun a state senator packed in his carry on less than 2 weeks ago.
In a way, the people who really want to sign up for this are the first ones I’d be leery of.
I have a decent amount of experience with firearms but would never consider using one in extremely close-quarters combat situation, especially in a pressurized jellybean in the sky full of people. How is it a good idea for someone who is likely not highly trained (a 1 week course doesn’t count) to have one on an…
Or the co-pilot is part of a drug ring, and the mules to unload it were already waiting at the original destination.
It must have been one hot piece of ass waiting for him in the original destination.
that they don’t want to know what reality actually is.
That understanding that late term abortions aren’t the norm is somehow lost on so many people who are anti-abortion. The idea that it’s just an alternative to contraceptives or condoms has been pumped so hard by the religious right that they don’t know what reality actually is.
Just the frame and mechanicals and it would be a ram not a jeep. If they are bothering to make a smaller pickup some of the work is already done. With an actual frame it could look remarkably different than a Gladiator as they can attach a more traditional pickup cab and box on it.
Gun racks in the back window made sense back when all pickups were single cabs and the gas tank was behind the bench seat, the 1960s, when it was the only available real estate to stash a long gun. Today? Not so much.
