New here, just purchased first truck!

Palifter21 · Dec 16, 2016

Hi all, just recently traded in my Hyundai Genesis Coupe for a 2017 Ram 1500 4x4 5.7L! Talk about a polar opposite vehicle!

Got a base 1500 black express and had the dealer black out the wheels and all the emblems/badges.

I already have so many things I want to do to it! First is upgrading the factory speakers...they're pretty bad. Got 4 6x9 Kickers and 2 3 1/2 Kickers on their way to give it a boost over stock.

I'm from PA btw.

Very cool. I grew up in Wilmington, DE. Also work in West Chester.

Have you done anything to your truck? Really looking to see some lift/wheel setups in person.

Back in march I put on billestein 5100 for my leveling kit, and put a set of 265/75/20 tires. Like I said I'm looking to trade my truck in but I'm going to swap my tires and kit to the newer one unless I can get a 4" mopar lift for the right price

Sweet, your truck is badass. I forget what lift/level setup you had but that plus your wheels is what I'm shooting for in the coming months.

Thank you!!! Are you referring to my new truck or the gray one traded in?

I was only aware of the gray one with black wheels. You got a new one?

Nice color scheme.

Does that have the same lift setup as the grey?

I'm from Bucks County, Newtown to be exact. Not that far from each other. Congrats on the new truck. I just traded in my 06 Quad Cab last week for a 2012 RCSB. I love my new truck and I've got about $2500 worth of parts in transit waiting to get delivered to me lol....

Lemme know if you ever wanna meet up, we can try to get some other local ram owners/forum members to join and have a mini-meet!!

Here is my 2012 RCSB at the dealer the day i got it...

And here it is as it sits now, by next weekend it will look like a completely different truck.

P.S. You can see my other car in the bg... a 13' Kia Soul lol... daily driver right there. I will say it's comfy as ****.

I'm definitely open to doing a meet! I like the truck. What do you have coming exactly...?

Kia makes a good car these days, those optimas look sharp.

New here, just purchased first truck!
