Rick was a singer/guitarist/songwriter for the Cars.
Ric Ocasek plays for 'The Cars', a New Wave band created in the late 70'ies. The band used to be named Cap'n Swing but they changed it because the name sounded immature.
He was 5' 9" Sometimes.....Benjamin ran between 5 10 and in later years 5 9.....
probably over creative differences. it doesn't seem like there was any animosity at all within the group. i read that ric ocasek hated touring. it would have been great if they kept it up though. they had an amazing run from 1978 - 1987!

Ric Ocasek, lead singer, songwriter, and guitarist for "The Cars," is believed to be Jewish, although there is no readily available information to fully confirm that is the case.
The only one i know of is the bassist, singer and co-founder of the rock group The Cars. (Somehow i doubt that's who you mean.) Benjamin Orr was the co-founder of the "Cars" that is true....he was also a keyboardist, drummer, percussion, rythym guitarist (his passion) and became bassist for the CARS........he shared lead singer with Ric Ocasek his forever friend and in 1986 they all broke off and Benjamin went on to play with others eventually forming the Orr Band, joining "Big People" among others and his last compilation was the "Lace".....he took up rythym again and performed many times with John Kalishes who followed Benjamin in passing in 2004 along with his wife shortly after....Benjamin himself died of Pancreatic cancer at his home in 2000 at the age of 53.....he was a gift to the music world.

Because Benjamin Orr was the better singer and ric occasic didn't like it
No, he is very much alive. But you may be thinking of his friend and former band-mate Benjamin Orr. Both Orr and Ocasek were in The Cars together. Orr died of cancer in 2000.
