Driving a Ram can make you a winter hero.

Winter is finally here. But winter doesn’t faze you if you’ve put yourself into a new Ram Truck from Barnett. No way. You’re ready for whatever nature throws at you. 

In fact, there are some things you can keep in your new Ram Truck so you can make the best of moments for, well, winter heroics. 

1. Tow Strap. Not everyone is fortunate enough to have four-wheel drive. But some drivers are fortunate to find a Good Samaritan in a Ram Truck when they’re stuck in the snow. Come to the rescue of these shivering, stranded souls. 

2. Shovel. Shovels can come in handy in a couple ways. If you’re towing a fellow motorist (see #1) you might need to dig through a bit of snow before you can hook up. Plus, you never know when someone may need help clearing a sidewalk. 

3. Bag of Salt or Sand. When you’re done shoveling, toss down some salt or sand. If you’re going to do a good deed, do it right. 

4. Jumper Cables. How many times have you come across a fellow motorist with a dead battery? Keep a set of jumper cables handy and be a parking lot hero. 

5. Blanket. Winter weather means winter sports—hockey, snowmobiling and snowshoeing to name just a few. When it’s your turn to sit on the sidelines, it’s extremely good manners to bring a blanket for your sweetie. 

6. Ice Scraper. Ever spend a winter morning removing snow with your hand? When the winter dumps a pile of ice and snow on your truck, it’s best to have planned ahead. 

7. Flashlight. Flashlights are essential for work and for play. Just because there’s less daylight in winter doesn’t mean you won’t be outside working, or hunting or fishing. You need to be able to find your way around in the dark.

8. Multi-Purpose Tool. Ram Truck drivers know how to get the job done, whatever the job may be. And that means you need to be versatile: first-aid, fishing, pencil sharpening—it’s amazing what a good knife can do in the right hands. 

9. Coffee Mug and Thermos. Winter is all about staying warm. On the job site or in an ice fishing shanty, be prepared with coffee, soup or hot chocolate, as you please. 

There you go. Get a new Ram Truck, get yourself prepared, and be ready to be a hero. Y’know, enjoy the “glory” part of “Guts. Glory. Ram.”
