In your picture I like yours better. I don't like the way the ram box looks. Yours would really look good if it was a 6.4 bed. But that's just me lol. :happy107:

I love it, Ram box with that configuration (CC, 6.4 bed) isn't offered here in the 2017 model. I would have definitely ordered the Ram Box if I could.

Yea it's a bummer when you can't get it the way you want. Especially when you are willing to wait on a factory order. I was going to place a factory order too, for a 2017, then I found out I couldn't upgrade to the forged wheels that were available for 2016 ( Laramie Longhorn & Laramie Limited ). Then I found this '16 that had everything I wanted, "except" the 3.92 gear set. But I got a great price on the leftover and the Hemi has plenty of power.
So the 3.92's are not that necessary I'd say unless you do a great deal of towing. Very minimal towing done with mine as it is mainly a commuter vehicle. My last job was 120 miles one way, so for me the 3.21's work well. Just my 2¢.

Just landed in Antigua, here for 7 weeks so I'm dreaming about the new Ram I ordered. That's one truck you won't see here on the islands.

Nice. Been to Antigua many years ago. Work or Play? Maybe your truck will be waiting for you when you get home!

Just to clarify that the top two trim levels (Longhorn and Limited) with CC and 6.4 bed does not offer the Ram Box option. All lower trim levels have it available, go figure.

I am sure you will love the truck!!

Ram Box > not

I used to think that, but they are stating to grow on me.

Not to mention the incredible amount of lockable storage that is completely out of sight, not like in the back seat.

I saw a white Rebel yesterday with Ram Boxes, and that thing really did look good.

just vacationing, yes I'm hoping it will be at the dealer when I return.

Antigua is the most beautiful island. My wife and I were just there in December.

Even got married there.

Definitely jealous, wish we were back there right now instead of in the middle of a freezing rain storm!

Beautiful, I see your dad's has the ram box. Is it a 5.7 or 6.4 Bed?

It's just the short one!

Haha thanks! The convenience of the 6.4 is nice, but it would be too long for my liking on a CC lol

I don't know how you guys do it. I could never order a truck and then wait another 2- 3 months before taking delivery, I don't have the patience, at all.
