    Double-DIN In-Dash DVD Receiver

    Thanks for that information, the radio should be here soon so this should help me avoid one issue :waytogo:

    Two major issues, no fix, deemed as per design.

    Get everything in writing and file a lawsuit against the stealership. See how fast their hands become untied.

    Wheels and Tires

    Shopping for wheels and tires is a pain. Between finding a wheel that I like and a tire and finding out one or the other is not in stock it is fulltime job. I was roaming around the Internet and found these, do they kinda look like SRT knockoffs? O.E. PERFORMANCE 136 Wheel and Tire...

    Wheels and Tires

    Western NY I think a part of the problem while waiting for them to get in stock I noticed 2 other trucks in the area with the same wheel. It's almost like Rockstar and Monster became the new oem. I'll be giving Discount Tire Direct a call tomorrow to see if I can get the following to fit...

    Wheels and Tires

    Monsters are still a month and a half before available, I am going to cancel that order and try something else. Looking over at Discount Tire Direct now. Trying to find something good and avoid all the possible issues is a pain :crazy:

    Honest opinions...Good & Bad!

    Just drove it (2011 5.7 Quad) on a short trip for over 300 miles and got 17.5 mpg with a bunch of hills, ice and snow. So far it's about the best I've seen from it. That 10% Ethanol is screwing up mileage for sure. On my second Ram and the only thing I might have changed was to go sport vs...

    If you race he can keep up, just use a tow chain.

    Debadge question

    Cool thanks, I'll remove them once the new wheels, tires, and headlights get delivered which should be in the next month or so. I'll start with the tailgate and if that looks ok move to the doors.

    Debadge question

    The day after I bought the truck I noticed some primer above the paint under the clearcoat on the tailgate so back to the dealership it went. After they repainted they stuck new badges back on. So this was about 2 months ago, how long would you wait to debadge on fresh red paint? Think it's...

    Another Mod

    Looking at the wing I don't think the first section would clear, looking around it looks like a good option might be the bakflip rollbak. Tonneau Cover - Tonneau Covers

    Another Mod

    Cheapest I found them was TruckChamp.com, just call them and they will give you the lowest price on whatever model you want. I paid $807 for an F1 and it included tax and shipping, I ordered it Saturday and had it Wednesday. The covers are top quality however it pays to shop around for the...

    Another Mod

    Looks good, they are great covers. It takes 3-4 days for the outer seals to relax in cold weather if up anywhere, however they do all get down.

    some tire questions

    After spending some time looking at upgrading my tires and wheels the number one issue for the wear problem seems to be people who decided not to rotate the tires, ever.

    Wheels and Tires

    I needed to upgrade the 17s on my truck and decided on 20x9 Monster Chrome with 275/60R-20 tires. I think everything should be close to stock 20s hopefully. The negative offset on my first choice (Artillery) would have put the tires out an inch so hopefully this will keep everything near flush...

    Car Seat Questions...

    It should have the latch system, if not you may have to use the seatbelts. Skip the center seat for sure. Most towns have a free installation point for child seats. It may save you some trouble by locating and bringing the truck and seat to them and they will install it. I have installed a...

    Double-DIN In-Dash DVD Receiver

    I'm ordering tonight unless something doesn't look right an hour from now. I changed out the camera and decided to go license plate cam vs drilling out the handle. Figure if it dies it will be easier to replace and the plate will keep it nice and close to the hitch. The BOYO cameras got good...

    Double-DIN In-Dash DVD Receiver

    Modified list, changed out camera. (decided to up quality and go with license plate cam to avoid extra work and easier swap out) Worked up a parts list, I have no steering control so don't need that module. Pioneer AVIC-Z130BT 7" In-Dash Double-Din Navigation CD/DVD/MP3 with Pandora iPhone...

    Double-DIN In-Dash DVD Receiver

    It looks like the newer models of the AVICs are dropping the MSN Direct which looks like it only impacts traffic stuff. Not really interested in traffic as it's always bad here. I am looking at the Pioneer AVIC-Z120BT now

    Double-DIN In-Dash DVD Receiver

    Thanks for the recommendations, Pioneer is what I will go with. I'm going to stay away from the AVICs because it looks like in Jan 2012 they are going to get a functional downgrade with the MSN Direct going away. I have looked at the Pioneer AVH-P4300DVD and it looks like a good start.

    Double-DIN In-Dash DVD Receiver

    I need a recommendation for a good Double-DIN In-Dash DVD Receiver. After a couple weeks of research they all seem to fail with something. I currently have a Garmin GPS however would like to the receiver to do that well and have a good interface. I like the features of Pioneer however sounds...

    tonneau cover?

    Bakflip covers are really nice, I bought an F1 for $807 total including shipping from truckchamp.com on Saturday, delivery scheduled for tomorrow. Not cheap however I wanted something that would last a few years and be easy to work with.

    Checkin

    I need to upgrade my wheels next, currently have the P265/70R17 Aluminum Wheels, deciding if I want to upgrade tires and wheels to 20s or stick with the 17s and just upgrade the wheels. Probably go with chrome to match handles and bumpers.
