ATTENTION ALL V6 Ram 1500 owners

[stimpy433]

I was considering doing this. I really like the dual exhaust look but don’t have the cutouts. You remember how much those rear bumpers roughly cost?

I got my chrome rear bumper with the cut outs for $100 from someone who swapped to an aftermarket off-road bumper.

Wow,$100 that was a steal,I paid $250 for mine and then had to get it painted as it was white.The stock hemi pipes and muffler are cheap to get though.

Diamondback cover. Wheel to wheel steps. K and N drop in filter. Econoaid throttle body spacer. Deezee tailgate assist. LED lows and highs. I always run royal purple. My mods are done.

I've seen my v6 stick 29 mpg for 100km stretch. It beat my wifes escape on mileage and is blowing her explorer out of the water.

Just running boards and a tri-fold tonneau on mine. Love the V6 1500. It's not a sports car, just does the job no muss, no fuss and is remarkably economical.

I cannot begin to tell you how much I like my 2017 v/6.The crew cab has plenty of room and the mpg is great.My big truck gets better mpg than my 2015 toyota tacoma did. I love it.

Baby steps (because, budget):

 

[PowrRam]

Only have 1,400 miles on it. Not getting over 20 mpg (combined)...yet. Did the back seat folding mod (described here: https://www.ramforum.com/posts/1769526/ )

 

[Demon-HeMi]

Rear drop springs to level, custom lights all around, painted bumpers, raptor style grill painted gloss black, not much else, its my daily beater work truck

The top photo is the day I brought my 2014 Ram1500 Express home. The other pics depict the various stages of add ons. I've added a K & N cold air intake and recently installed the Pedal Commander ( talk about fast response throttle ). This truck now has 88,000 miles on it without a hiccup and runs like a scalded dog.

My 2017 V-6 Tradesman. Haven't done much. Just swapped all the chrome badges for black ones (except the grill), changed the cargo and backup lights to LED, and a weathertech bug deflector. Inside I changed the radio to an RA2, added a backup camera, added footwell lighting changed all interior lights to LED, and just added steering wheel audio controls. I wasn't too sure about the V-6 at first but when I test drove it I saw it had plenty of power to serve my needs.

My truck started just like yours!




I will say that the little v6 with the 8 spd suprised me when towing, i had my 20’ car hauler on the back of it with a small SUV loaded on it and the truck did awesome, even got around 17mpg doing it on the hwy
