Purchased my Limited mid-May while it was still on the train on it's way to the dealership. Didn't take delivery until mid-June after a few delays with the transport company. I'm in San Diego, CA and purchased in Boise, ID. Couldn't get a deal locally I would be happy with especially with dealers adding a markup. Plus none had a Patriot blue on the lot or on the way.

After about 2k of driving, I'm pretty happy with the truck. Recently towed my center console boat that's weighs about 6k. Truck handled with ease. Never felt unstable driving around especially on the freeways. The exterior was my least favorite and I do like the '19 Sierra Denali exterior more. But '19 ram exterior is really has started to grow on me. After test driving locally, I was pretty much sold on the interior, the space in the back for the kids and the ride quality. Test drove the '18 Sierra and '18 Tundra and neither felt as smooth as the Ram with airbag suspension. Interior fit and finish really blew me away of the limited. So far the only glitch I've encountered is with the USB. I've read the thread about the AC and have to agree it isn't not the greatest especially on days over 100. My SUV and my wife's Audi blow ice cold regardless if it's over 100 compared my truck. I thought I was going to regret not having the standard mirrors so that I could have the 360 cam feature, but now realize I really don't need it. I'm also glad I went with the standard bed. Makes finding a parking spot a pain at times, but I could live with that.

So far the only things I've done was add all weather mats and the BakFlip MX4 bed cover. Future plans for a catback exhaust, the Mopar cold air intake and bedrug. BTW, sorry for the bad photography.

Waiting on mine. I looked hard at the GMC when I bought my F150 a couple of years ago I liked the exterior but the interior was probably the worst of the original domestic trucks. Now I'm not crazy about the GMC redesign and the interior is still behind Ford and Ram which is the bar setter now.

Congratulations on your purchase.
