Hey everyone, just bought a new Ram on July 4th. Got a 2017 Ram 4x4 Big Horn with 5.7 Hemi. I looked at a lot of trucks before I settled on the Ram. IMO, it's the best on the market. I traded my 2010 Ford F150 FX4 in on the Ram. My F150 was nothing but a problem. Between my F150 and 2015 Mustang GT, I was in my garage all of the time fixing them. Needless to say, I will never own another Ford.

I usually mod all of my cars immediately however, I think that I am going to keep this one mostly stock until the warranty is up. The stealership gave me 4 year/60k miles bumper to bumper with a maintenance plan for the same amount of time. After the warranty is up, I'll probably install headers and a whipple kit. I had a whipple on my mustang and it was a lot of fun; except for breaking driveshafts and halfshafts lol.

Welcome from another Floridian!

Enjoy the truck, you need to read this post LINK about the Pedal Commander, if you think the truck is great now just wait and no warranty problems.

Welcome from west palm. I have a hard time keeping my pocket out of the garage. If I had the money I'd be a modaholic...

Your not going to make it. This place is like drinking with your friends at the highschool party. Just going to egg you on to do something you didn't plan on doing! Lol.... Congrats on the new purchase, good choice!

WTH.... I didn't make it lol. Haven't even had the truck for 2 weeks and I ordered:

Rancho quick lift
UPR OCC
Husky weather beaters
Mopar tow hooks
Carven progressive muffler
Lund trifold bedcover
Mevotech UCAs

I think that will hold me over until I finish nursing school next year lol. I was going to buy the Bilsteins but I got the Ranchos for $495 shipped and there is the $120 rebate.

Lol... Check the craigslist section here if you are in Northern FL. I shared an add I came across for front and back bils, I think it was like $175 for the set. If they work for you and you can get em, return your purchase.

Your not going to make it til graduation before more mods, considering what you already did..Bwahahahahaaaa.....
