Help me decide ...

2012 Ram Outdoorsman Mossy Oak Edition
or
2012 Ram Sport

Wants ... NO CHROME , Good Nav/alpine system , 20's , Sunroof , cool hood
4x4 , center shift crew cab short box .

Now ... the Mossy Oak does not come with the sport hood .. that I can live with. I do like the camo and the fact that the bumpers and flares are powder coated. Cons .. 17" wheels ..

Sport .. everyone has them but for good reason they are sweet ... and I can get all of the above wants in this model .

Cons ... the Sport is more money

Wish I could get a outdoorsman MO and have a sport hood and 20's but ehh

Color options .. on the MO, I like the two tone white on grey , for the sport I like the silver or mineral grey ,, dig the sport chrome wheels over the MO edition.

Plans .. not allot keep it stock for a change , possible just a tire change and a level .... nothing like I normally do
What would you do .

I would say sport. When looking for a truck, your list was the exact same as mine is, and the sport has in no way disappointed me from that list of things.

I'd go for a sport. Comes with everything you want and has a nicer interior than the outdoorsman.

From what I gather the interior is the same .. with the exception of CAMO

I vote express lol
pros:
-cheaper then sport looks the same
-has 20s
-i think they come with center console shift

cons:
-you will add navi aftermarket=better
-you will add sunroof 800-1200 est depends on where you are
-add hood if you really want to.

I do like the ram box as I can carry gear in there ... but does it limit the bed width ? Still have to get a ATV in the bed

How wide is your ATV? From what I can find a bed with the rambox is about 50-51" wide. And it seems to be about 15" skinnier than the regular bed. So, I'm guessing the box extends to about a half inch over the wheel well on both sides.

Well, if they normally fit between the wheel wells without hitting them no problem, then you should be able to fit one in a RamBoxed bed. The Ramboxes are nice though. The one on my stepdads 2500 is extremely useful.
