Beautiful truck and color!! Congrats! :favorites13:
I just got my 2016 Ram Sport 4X4 regular cab a couple of weeks ago. Had to order mine. My second Ram truck.
I ordered the Hemi, 8 speed transmission and 3.92 gears as well as other little goodies that I wanted.

Earlier this week, I picked up a new 2015 Crew Cab 4wd Sport with the full 6'4" bed. Truck also has a Hemi, 8sp transmission, and 3.92 gears (wouldn't have it any other way). I'm going to keep this truck simple with just a lowering kit, new wheels/tires, headlights, and the basic bolt on performance parts and tuning...

I love the color, but it's worse than black when trying to keep it clean..

^^ Yep. It sure looks nice when it is clean though. My regular cab is a very similar color, and you can usually see the dust on the paint within the first few miles of washing it.

All the mods are either here or on order, so I should have it all wrapped up in a week or so.

Exterior mods...

Ground Force 2/3 Lowering Kit
Verde V24 Black 20x9 Wheels
Bak F1 Bed Cover
Black Grille/Tailgate Emblems
Black Powdercoated 5" Tips
Retroshop Custom Painted Headlights with FXR Projectors

Performance wise will be simple...

S&B Intake
Moe's 87Mm Throttle Body
Catch Can
Hemifever Tune

I'm sure I will add a few other simple performance mods after that, but I enjoy how quiet and comfortable this truck is, so I doubt I will touch the exhaust.

I think my newest ski build might look better in these trucks than my white ram, :p

The Vararam and S&B are the 2 best intakes available for these trucks. I have another 2014 here with the Vararam installed, so I wanted to put an S&B on this truck simply because I have numerous local customers that like to see how the parts actually look and sound on the truck. I have always used my personal trucks as a mobile showroom if you want to call it that.

The Vararam is the better performer of the 2, but because I wont be racing this truck, I figured it would be perfect for installing the S&B to show the locals.

Beautiful truck, i have mine in all black but im a sucker for blue. Im actually moving back down to TX in about a week or so. I have to come down and check you guys out, im still on the fence of the off road style wheels or more of a sporty lowered look cuz in TX roads are nice and nice weather lol.

I run 1 of our throttle bodies on all of my vehicles...both 2011 Rams, my wife's 2013 Hemi Jeep Grand Cherokee, and now the new 2015 ;)

And its not a 2014 PCM, its an unlocked 2015 PCM. Yes, it has already been ordered from Diablo though.

I absolutely LOVE that color! I wanted that color when I was shopping for mine but couldn't find a certified used in that color in my area. But it looks really sharp! Congrats on the purchase and nice job getting it out the door for the price you paid!

Haha. Thanks. I'm only keeping the grey one long enough to put it back to stock and sell it. I started pulling parts this morning.

I love mine so far. I wish I had the bigger bed, I could not find one for nothin, in the central Illinois area. I have the air ride system. I think this picture is with it slammed. I have the S&B intake. Works great, has 10k on it and the filter is holding up well. I went with the stainless works cat back. I wanted some Hemi tunes, since it t is such a sweet sounding engine. The SS system makes the most of it. I hit the exterior with a couple coats of Mothers FX wax and it stays pretty clean. I also fabbed up my own catch can setup using the can from an Audi aftermarket company as it has a ton of capacity.

I just added retro shop 50W HIDs. Hands down the best upgrade so far. Wish my light housings were holding up better. When changing bulbs, I noticed the projector lining was bubbling, and the turnsignal area is fogging.
