I like that Leer cap. I have an ARE Tonneau cover on order. I would have rather had a cap like yours but the wife doesn't like them. I got to make all the other selections regarding the truck options and add-ons so I did OK.

Replaced the bulbs in my brake and reverse lights with LEDs, best part is no resistors were needed...

After looking through the manual and seeing that ram finally made it so a bulb change in the front lights takes 5 mins, i took a gamble and threw in some LED headlight bulbs i took out of my 2013 ram...

I really cant understand how any vehicle in 2019 can still actually come with halogen lights on it, just the LED swap alone gave the truck the modern feel it should have


Next ill find some LED bulbs for the front signals...

Also I ordered a clear LED 3rd brake light

2019 Ram Tradesman 4x4 with towing pkg
Engine
5.7
well, I purchased my 2019 New body style Ram 1500 Tradesman 5.7 with a few upgrades, including towing pkg with the 3:92 gear ratio that I needed for towing, tinted windows all the way around, and a few more last Monday. I have been driven it for 1 week and love it.

I traded my 2014 Bighorn in on it and got a great deal all the way around. The dealership I went to was top notch in appearance, presentation, customer service, sales team specialist and the finance guru was not pushy nor intimidating and was up front and honest with me through the whole transaction.

I'm pleased with the New Ram and the whole experience I had with the purchase

What suprised me was how decent the oem speakers are built, no more paper cones and even have a rubber surround...

A) Replaced the bulbs in my brake and reverse lights with LEDs, best part is no resistors were needed...

B) Next ill find some LED bulbs for the front signals...

C) Also I ordered a clear LED 3rd brake light

A) Did you get the GTR bulbs?
B) Like these?


C) Curious to see what this is.
D) Have you found a bulb for the rear turn signal? This looks like it's going to be a bear to find because it's not like anything I've seen before.

What suprised me was how decent the oem speakers are built, no more paper cones and even have a rubber surround...

My base model stereo system beats everything I've had, except maybe the '05 GTO I had. I haven't found a sub in mine, but it hits too hard not to have some kind of sub of some kind.

I installed an S&B CAI on Saturday. I can definitely tell a difference in the sound of my exhaust.
The install was pretty easy. This is made with some quality material.
I’m not sure on performance yet. I did some 60-80mph runs before I installed the CAI and I’m going to do some runs later this week/weekend to see if it made any difference.
