Hey guys,

I'm going to post this in the 4th Gen general section, but I'm happy to report that i took delivery of a 2017 Ram 2500 4x4 tradesman last night. I'll try to post a picture in the post in the general section, but i wanted to post here because you guys have been very helpful with information and the multitude of questions i asked.

I really appreciate your help and love the truck. It had all the options i wanted except a 4.10 gear, but for what I'm towing presently or what i may upgrade our camper to, i don't need them. The deal was just too good on this truck to pass up.

It was fresh off the truck, 5 miles on it when i test drove it yesterday morning. Good stuff guys.

Thanks again,
Greg

congrats on your new truck. i hope you like it as much as i like mine. around 9000 miles the 6.4 really woke up. that put a smile on my face, as living at 9300 feet has its disadvantages. happy new year. cheers, comrades

Thanks guys. Happy New year!

As this was in proccess for a few weeks, i ordered in advance the raptor series 4" ss W2W side steps, a weather tech bug shield and oem deluxe splash guards. Got everything installed today except the front splash guards which I'll get on tomorrow.

I didn't drill out the extra hole on the rear guards, i didn't think it was necessary. The fronts though i may have to since it's the upper hole that's needed. I'll have to see once i get the factory lower trim off and put them on with the existing holes/ hardware.

They are nice though, worth the $90 i paid for the set. They have a ram emblem embossed on them and look good.
