This is my third Ram and it is something my 8 year old son and I enjoy working on. It is a 2018 2500 Tradesman with 6.4, 3.73 gears, 8" bed. It is International Harvester Red, and we put Support our Farms plates on it. My son loves to talk about farms and visiting them, I worked on a dairy farm years ago and always try to buy directly from them and spread the word. Currently working on installing overhead console and will finish when my harness comes in from M2Mods. Also have put in 8.4 UAS with backup camera cable from M2Mods again to show both on radio and mirror. Husky floor mats, Pendaliner bed liner, body moulding, sill protectors, Blades running boards, fog light with factory switch again thanks to M2Mods for cable, steering wheel radio controls, and hard top trifold bed cover. Exactly the truck I wanted, fits in my garage with inches to spare, and I hope to drive it more since I only have 7k miles since it was new in October 2019. Once Covid is over, we plan on driving the truck across Route 66, have been planning that trip for 3 years. Thanks for looking, and appreciate this forum and the members for all the help I get, the opportunity to help others, and chance to just chat.

I know the 5th Gens don't get much love on this forum... but I'll give it a shot. I think the link has most of the mods I've done, always planning on more lol. I really do like this forum and seeing what everyone does with their trucks... the good advise you can find on here, and the help you can get on how to spend your money!
Thanks for looking, and I hope you all love your truck as much as I love mine.

Never thought to add a condition of the truck to the rules haha. I would suggest waiting until the truck is complete to go for TOTM.

What are you doing to it? repainting?

When i had about 600 miles on my Ram, i had a complete color change, from the color of a New York steak, Delmonico Red Pearlcoat to Sunburst Orange Pearlcoat.

At the same time, i had the bumpers changed from Chrome to the Sports style bumpers & i changed the grill from all chrome to a chrome surround with black inserts. I also debadged the sheet metal & took off the Ram head emblems & replaced them with custom POW*MIA emblems, a locking gas cap door was installed.
Tow Hooks were added, as well as a light bar between the hooks.
Then the bed was sprayed with Line-X, folding tonneau cover was added, a CB was installed into floor console & a custom built headache sign bar was added

Is it done yet or are you still working on it? Sounds like a lot of work!

It was in the Body shop for about 6 weeks, mostly waiting for parts.
At that time i still had my 2009 HEMI powered Ram w/ 140,000 miles on it.
When the 2016 EcoDiesel was finished, i sold the 2009 to a local guy, he still stops by with it every now & then.

I now have about 60,000 miles on the 2016 Ram Ecodiesel, i have not been driving it as much in the last year, i had a bad case of the regular flu & my lungs are just lately been getting better.

It's going to be sunny this weekend, maybe i'll take some pix
