So I've had my truck for a few months now and since it is my first really customizable vehicle I'm looking for input/information/suggestions/thoughts on what to do next.

So far I've done an AirRaid CAI and Borla cat back Exhaust. I've talked to Jeremy about lights which I need to finalize the deal on that. And I'm looking at getting a 345 Hemi badge for the hood, I hate being a copy cat but it looks so damn cool!!! I'm waiting on someone to come out with a tuner that will work for the 2011 so that is def on the waiting list.

But, I don't know what to do/mod next or after the previously listed ones...

Lift or level? Bigger better tires? (don't want to go too big though) Better rotors/calipers/pads? Paint Calipers? Under body skid plates? (Does anyone even make these or DIY?)

This truck is my pride and joy. First new vehicle I've ever owned. I don't do any hardcore off-roading, but do drive though fields and down the occasional stone or dirt road usually in crappy weather. So basically I'm just looking for some wisdom form the banks of Ram Forum.

-Aaron

leveling kits are a nice and relatively cheap mod :waytogo:

White huh? :D

I like white and chrome, I wouldn't paint the exhaust tips (personally)

It'd look cool as **** leveled and with some meaty tires.

White... Not very common around here, most are red or black. Plus looks clean when its dirty.

First truck I remember is our old farm '79 Power Wagon, in white.

So to me that's a truck. I just couldn't afford a power wagon. Lol

Mineral gray is a pretty color.

I looked really hard at the magnaflow but wanted to be different. And the quality of the Borla kit really stood out, as did the price tag. Lol

for price.....I went with a cutout and 5" Mufflex tips.

The Mufflex tips I got used, and I'm really not a huge fan. I will probably get rid of them if I can get a shop to weld some in........we'll see.

My truck with the old W150 Power Wagon. If you look careful in the background there is a big red monster in the building. That's my brother CTD that is all modded out.
