Hello from Peoria, IL!
Proud Ram owner here, a little about me Im a police/fire/911 dispatcher, somewhat of an outdoorsman, and I LOVE MY TRUCK.
I bought my 2012 Ram 1500 in May of 2012.
2wd, long bed regular cab, 5.7L HEMI V8, 6 speed auto trans

Current mods:
Summit racing muffler and turndown, stock cats
LED accents in the grille (in the process, still not totally done yet)
upgraded headlights and reverse lights

Planned mods:
BFG A/T tires, maybe slightly larger than stock
2" Lift kit to make it stand a little more aggresive
Pocket Fender flares

smittybilt light bar for HID Fogs
HID headlight conversion kit
finish LED grille accents
LED tailgate brake light

Not sure yet if I want to keep the chrome scheme or black everything out, paint wheels,bumpers,grille, etc black. cant make up my mind so I suppose its a good thing I dont have the money yet!

Anyway, I'm here to discuss mods, tools, how-to's, fuel economy, ooh and ahh at other peoples' amazing rigs, things like that.
Let me know what you think of my truck, any tips or suggestions, and thanks for looking!

I know! We had a store in East Peoria and just moved to Pekin. Actually, we bought an old Dodge dealer's building after they went bust with the bankruptcy thing.

S.J.Smith Welding, Safety, and Industrial Supply! We've been there for quite some time. Started in here in 1950 by my grand father.
