Hello all!

I've been lurking around here for a bit now. I've recently acquired a '16 Ram Express with the 5.7L Hemi.

This is my first truck and coming from the import world (Subaru), I'm definitely learning a lot.

Truck is currently stock. I have plans for a catch can and a good look over the truck for now.

I may not be able to resist picking up a pedal commander, intake and muffler/CBE, but no plans on getting a tune yet so I may hold off.

Thanks guys!

@quietpeen...you know it would look better with those Mopar headlights :banana:

Haha I’m sure you’re being berated by PMs for those.

Wow, forgot I even started this.....yearly update:

Never really did much with the Ram over this past year and change. Only mods I acquired were:

Billet Technologies Oil Catch Can
Cabin Air Filter Kit
Weathertech Floor Mats F/R
Weathertech Windshield Shade (if that is a mod)
DeeZee Tailgate Assist

Overall, I've just been enjoying my driving it and not having to constantly clutch and shift in traffic like I do with my Subaru lol.

But I'm getting the itch to trade it in after coming across that Hydro Blue 2019 Express Classic build.

It's basically the same truck that I have now, except with a bunch of upgrades that I was wanting to do anyways (7in EVIC, 8.4 Radio, Sport Hood, 3.92 gear, 4x4) and it retains the jump seat which I actually prefer.

Going to have to see what kind of deals are out there and what I can get for my '16.

Working offshore doing data collection analysis, I get a lot of downtime when operations are slow. I've been putting together a wish list spreadsheet of every upgrade I'd like to have on top of the new truck....rough estimate 18k lmao!!!

Oh definitely! I see so many nice trucks (yours included) that keep inspiring more pages.

I guess I should start an actual thread versus using this new member intro.
