Copied this buold from another forum.

Well after going to the dealership 3 times over the last year and looking at these i fiannaly bought one. I look at chevys gmcs and rams and drove multiple of all of them and decided on rams. Then narrowed it down 2 two and picked this one. Its a 2011 sport with 50k miles. I love it so far 395 hp and 405 ft lbs. Cooled leather seats nav pretty close to fully loaded.

Took a 3.5 hour trip with it with a full size trailer for the first time. Since I sold my 3500. It averaged 13.2 mpg at 75 mph. I was VERY happy with that.c55c91fe5704f370201c95b342b12557.jpg

2f5e69abd8cdd3c21a9c27b3f6655eaa.jpgab6557ffd17fa881313cf6959c6a60c9.jpg 9 hour round trip after my 13 hour shift to get my new trailer. Had to stop at a rest stop and sleep for an hour but I made it. Trailer is 24ft with 2 7k axles drive over fenders winch mount and crossmember jack tire and rim upgrades. They gave me an 800 dollar discount because it was almost 8 weeks behind schedule. Anyway truck pulled the trailer 75-80mph whole way home in an ice storm. I really love the auto 4x4 it starts to slip and then straightens itself right out. Love this truck. Everything except the Hemi tick haha. e81075aba23724b5f79e6c888ad2c486.jpg

Now that's funny as we both own 2011s, but mine has 150,000 miles on it. I've owned it since new so that goes to show how much I enjoy driving it. Congrats on putting your truck to full use..

Well I had big plans of lift and tires soon even had the 35s already but I bought a house and had to pay 10k off on the truck so I decided to just get stock size replacement tires.

Also ordered some air lift bags for it to help those poor coils
