I was about to pull out of my mother in law's drive way when a dodge ram promaster pulled up the the curb and the driver got out and was looking around his vehicle. I decided to ask him how he liked it and was waiting for the typical "it's great, much better than my chevy express etc etc." On the contrary this guy (he didn't own the pro master but it's what his company has given him to drive while he does repairs of some type of machinery in a grocery store) Regardless he pretty much hates this promaster. He mostly complained about the way it handled, he said the ride was ungodly stiff to the point where he is scanning the road ahead of him for potholes to brace for them. The cargo area was mostly empty but it did have racks and a partition so it did have some weight in the back. He also complained of the step in height of the back bumper being too high. Also his last complaint (which I was actually able to see for myself) was in the drivers seat there is very little room between the structure of the drivers chair and the wheel well. Essentially he can not slide his foot out of the vehicle, he literally has to lift his foot about 5 inches to clear this area then step down to the entry step. It looked very awkward and I could see how that could get annoying quickly. This was also his 3rd day with this vehicle.
