    2018 Ram 2500 Mega Cab 6.4 Custom Order

    Did a little bit of Towing this week. Sold this 73 Camaro and the buyer asked me if I could transport it for him. I was happy to do it and put a few more Towing miles on to see what I thought. Towed like a dream. It was about an hour drive each each way. Some flat rural highway, a bit of rolling...

    2018 Ram 2500 Mega Cab 6.4 Custom Order

    Time for her first bath. Living on a gravel driveway sucks sometimes. Couldn’t believe how fast it got dirty. The dealership put tire shine on the tires and the dust and dirt sticks to that like crazy.

    2018 Ram 2500 Mega Cab 6.4 Custom Order

    There is a ton of space behind the rear seats. Maybe 6-8 inches approximately from top to bottom. On the bottom of this area behind the seats is a storage compartment all the way across with two access doors, one on each side. I would say the storage compartment is approximately 5-6 inches wide...

    2018 Ram 2500 Mega Cab 6.4 Custom Order

    The 4x4 off road package gives you front tow hooks, bilstein shocks front and rear, transfer case skid plate, fender flares, and hill descent control. I don't believe it changes ride height or anything else about the truck. It was a $445 add on when I built the truck. I wanted the skid plate and...

    Last truck I buy

    I like your build. My dad has that green on his 1500 eco diesel. Amazing how many shades of green/black you can see in it depending on the sunlight. Looks like it will serve you well for a long time to come!

    2018 Ram 2500 Mega Cab 6.4 Custom Order

    Nice find! I think the 5.7 is an excellent motor and will serve you well in your truck. For a long time the 5.7 was the only gas motor in these heavy duties as I'm sure you know. I couldn't find a truck with the features I wanted anywhere near me, especially the 4.10 rear end. I could find the...

    Thank you! The Mega Cab is amazing! So much room and visually different enough to stand out a little bit.

    2018 Ram 2500 Mega Cab 6.4 Custom Order

    Had to put her to work this morning. Bought a B&W Adjustable Hitch with a 7 inch drop. Lines up my 18 foot car trailer just about perfect. Unloaded the 73 Camaro and hauled home the box scraper from my grandparents house.

    2018 Ram 2500 Mega Cab 6.4 Custom Order

    Thank you for the suggestion. The towels are temporary until I buy something just like you suggested. Kids are so hard on interiors of vehicles. The mega cab is perfect for my needs. The extra back seat room will pay for itself over and over as my boys get bigger. Our plan is also to do some...

    2018 Ram 2500 Mega Cab 6.4 Custom Order

    Thanks Kiloram. I did a ton of research before I ordered this one and couldn’t be happier with the outcome. I’m looking forward to putting it to work as a daily driver and tow machine.

    Took the family out to dinner in the new rig. Drives well, lots of power, and so much room for my boys in the back seat. Here are some more pictures since I know we all enjoy them.

    She’s home! Wow, what a machine! Haven’t even scratched the surface on getting the Uconnect system set up or the TFT display. So much room for my boys in the back of the mega cab. This will be a sweet machine for a long time to come.

    2018 Ram 2500 Mega Cab 6.4 Custom Order

    It finally arrived this morning at my local dealer! It looks incredible! Now the wait for them to get it washed up and ready to sell. Has 4 miles on it at the moment. All my financing is worked out, we have agreed on what my trade in is worth... Hopefully I’ll be driving it home this afternoon...

    My truck is in Portland and I believe it’s unloaded from the train. My dealer said it showed “constructively placed”. Not sure exactly what that means. Wish I could drive up and get it from the shipping yard.

    Just a quick update. Truck is now in Idaho. Seems to be moving smoothly West. I have my financing worked out with my bank. It’s a bummer rates have gone up so much in the last 6 months. Oh well. Now my wife has us looking at travel trailers... and I’ve been pricing out accessories. This truck is...

    kirkcad, I ordered my truck from Wilson Motors. I live and work in Corvallis. Good friend of mine works there and has been keeping me up to date on the truck. I stopped in today and was told my truck is in Illinois. Scheduled to be in Portland by August 3rd. Hoping it is here by August 9th...

    2018 Ram 2500 Mega Cab 6.4 Custom Order

    Here is the window sticker for my Mega Cab. It is showing up on my dealers website as in transit. He has had two calls on it so far with other people wanting to buy it. They both told him it is exactly what they are looking for. Makes me feel good to know my build is a desirable one.

    Hello and New member

    Congrats on the custom order. That should be a fun, reliable truck. Lots of value for the money.

    Quick update on my order. My truck has been built and is right on schedule so far. It is currently waiting for transport out of Mexico. My dealer told me it should be here in Oregon in about 2-3 weeks. Hoping its closer to two than three weeks. Haha! I've been browsing local dealer inventory...

    Ram truck in D1 status for three weeks - trying to add a sales code..

    I am in the same situation. I went back and asked my dealer to add the Alpine Audio Option. He told me he would call his rep and see if he could get it added. Mine was just in step D at the time of request but has since moved to D1, about three days after I asked. My dealer thought he could get...
