Yes it does. It's longer than mine. Brilliant black color. It has some smacks on the tailgate and the rear bumper is henked up, but it's not bad for what it is. It is his first pickup truck.

My son dragged home something similar for his 1st couple of trucks, except they were Ford Super Dutys, which are cheaper, with their bodies falling off from rusting.

Best of luck to him ,, Great looking RAM

This is what is in the back of my son's truck...wow how cool is this thing. BEDSLIDE that extends all the way out....very cool.

I think my boy did good here. Pretty sure his next investment will be a tonneau cover. I told him to get it Krown treated ASAP.

Pretty nice set up !
I use KROWN on my RAM.. IMO well worth it

My lawd that is one looooong truck.
Our crew cab long bed dually is 21 feet bumper to bumper... it's interesting to park it...!

He's enjoying it. He works hard and wanted one so, he got it. Luckily he found it locally so he didn't have to travel across h3lls half acre

Or parking it in a garage. My 6ft club cab is way easier to park then the Honda CRV
better cameras , parking sensors and you can see more out the truck then the Honda ( Wife's)

Had a P0128 engine code pop up with the boys truck. Took it for a drive to see what it was when he told me about it. Used a code scanner to see what it was. The temp gauge barely got above the quarter way mark. Didn't check the actual read out for the temp on the dash.

Hardly had any warm air coming from the vents.

Bought the thermostat assembly and replaced it and refilled the anti-freeze coolant. Let it warm up and get to temp, and then let it do it's thing. Temp is in the 210-212 degree range and is now blowing hot out of the vents now. Didn't get a chance to clear the CEL.

those Bed Slides come in real handy

I even hauled Decomposed Granite, using a large Harbor Freight Tarp, to keep the bottom of the trucks bed clean.
The soils guy used a Back Hoe Bucket to dump it in the bed.

I could have dumped it better, but i am more familiar with the equipment
