Hello, I've owned two Dodge Ram 1500's over the last two months..

My first one, 2008 Ram with the V8 4.7L. 78xxx miles when I bought it

I was on my way to my duty station from home when someone didn't want to yield to make his left turn in an intersection....

A month later I found another one..

2008 Ram 5.7L with 58xxx miles. Paid 12k for it, thought I got a pretty good deal.

Had a few down days last week for the 4th, bought a 5 dollar hacksaw and got to work... a few hours later and I have this on it now.

FM Super 10. All done in the dorm parking lot.

Took off the bug shield on the grille, didn't like the look to much. Thinking about getting some black inserts as well.

What do you guys think? I love my Dodge and when I walked away without a scratch after running headlong into a Honda Civic at 55 miles a hour I knew I needed another one. :roflsquared:

Anyone have any quick tips to make it look more unique? Will be going through the DIY section tonight.

Thank you everyone.

As much as I loved the quad cab and being able to put my gear in the back seat I really do love the single cab short bed. She takes off like a rocket. The storage area behind the seats has plenty of room for my plate carrier, helmet, and other gear I need for work.

Thinking about finding a tool box for some extra storage as well.
