    Brought home a new 2019!

    After much deliberation I decided it was time to trade in my baby. 2012 6.7 CTD that I've had since new in 2013. She was a great truck and I'm really going to miss her. One last pic of the old girl [emoji22] I traded for a 2019 2500 Laramie Longhorn with the 6.4L HEMI, 8sp trans and 4.10...

    Anybody had good luck with ebay/budget LED light pods??

    I am thinking of adding some LED pods to add a little more light when backing up to our trailer at night. I know Rigid makes some great stuff but the are priced way high... I don't want to spend more than I really have to since they are just back up lights. The Sidetrackers seem to be...

    Thinking about replacing the premium 'alpine' amp with a 77KICK45 upgrade

    I have been doing some looking and found so old posts on another forum where a guy replaced the factory 'alpine' amp with the upgraded Kicker unit. The price does not look too bad and if will add some extra power to the front doors then it might be worth the investment. I am really trying to...
