Big Red II

[HemiLonestar]

Couldn't keep an RFE long enough to actually be able to use the truck while gearing up for a ZF swap, so it was time for a new truck. After 18+ years and almost 200k miles, she didn't owe me anything.
Found a somewhat low mileage 2016 Ram 1500 quad cab that looks like it's just a younger version of my original truck. Will add better pics once I have taken some, weather isn't exactly cooperative at the moment.

Someone ordered this truck, like sat down and checked every box available for a Sport.

Time for some steps, too old to be climbing up that far lol.

Took the wheels off my previous truck and put them on this one.

Those rims look sharp on your ride

 

[HemiLonestar]

Thanks, I like them better than the black ones, plus they already had a fairly new, good set of tires on them. Wasn't a fan of the tires the truck came with.

Nice truck! Jealous of the red, I couldn't find one when I was looking

Thanks, I just kinda stumbled across this one lol.

Lol I was being super picky though, so I had to snag whatever I found first. Had to be either red, blue or white with the 6.4' bed, Sport and 3.92s with the R/T hood but no sunroof. There weren't many nationwide

 

[HemiLonestar]

My criteria was probably simpler lol. Had to be '14 or newer (w/8sp, **** the RFE), preferably Sport model, 3.92's, less than 50k miles.
