Carl Burgers brings in the RAMINATOR for a car crushing exhibition

A thunderous sound of a rumbling engine and the crackling of metal under the wheels of a monster truck were heard by hundreds of people at Carl Burgers World on Sunday afternoon for a three-show demonstration of one of its products, the RAM truck. But this RAM is beefed up in monster design and a force to be reckoned with in the monster truck world. As part of a weekend-long event, the RAMINATOR showed hundreds of people the power and durability of the RAM product.

A thunderous sound of a rumbling engine and the crackling of metal under the wheels of a monster truck were heard by hundreds of people at Carl Burgers World on Sunday afternoon for a three-show demonstration of one of its products, the RAM truck. But this RAM is beefed up in monster design and a force to be reckoned with in the monster truck world. As part of a weekend-long event, the RAMINATOR showed hundreds of people the power and durability of the RAM product.

Nick Dreyfus, Carl Burgers Dodge Chrysler Jeep RAM World marketing, said it RAMINATOR weekend and kicked off the weekend with the 4th Annual Carl Burger.com car show with more than 120 classic and current car models on display. The RAMINATOR was on display with driver Mark Miller and his touring body that does everything needed to keep the monster RAM in shape.

“It will be maximum destruction. We have 10 cars to crush and two stacks,” he said. “First stack to run over is six cars, on the second round we will add two more cars to crush and add to the stacks and on the final we will add two more cars so he will be crushing 10 cars all at once.”

He said that RAM truck is the major sponsor for the RAMINATOR.

Ramona Maraj, RAM advocate for Southern California said her main goal is to market the RAM product. She said RAM broke away on its own in 2009.

“So my main function is to inform the public that we now only manufacture RAM trucks, vans and RAM commercial products,” she said. “Events like this are super fun and we sponsor this RAM truck and we make it ‘The RAMINATOR.’ Besides crushing cars and creating some enthusiasm, our main goal is to show people is that this is our quality and our RAM truck that was turned into a monster truck. I am having a blast and this is fun. I have a lot of enthusiasm when  presenting a great product.”
