Since it could be interior or performance related question....:********:



Ready to pounce on a new purchase...showed my wife at SEMA the Trinity from Diablo, and the Katzkin leather.
The tuner I can get and hopefully have one of Mopars two chosen PCM tuners tune it, $599...or get the Katzkin leather seats?

Which would you do...now my seats now are cloth, has the basic ST as it's an Express...so i tell myself the leather may overwhelm the base interior, but help resale.
Tuner, gauges look cool, add some power, and is removable.


So what says you? :naughty:

Tuner. Easy. Leather is not going to have a huge impact on resale, tuner will have a huge impact on how much you enjoy the truck while you have it.

I loved both of those mods on my 08 ram. But, I would have to agree and say go for the tuner. The interior can wait or not be done at all, and the tuner will be a lot more fun for you.

I think the people have spoken. I also vote for tuner. I had Katzkin in my 03, and they were awesome. But I am a performance kind of guy, and I would rather drive fast than worry about what kind of leather I'm sitting on.

wow, 100% vote so far :D

I can get the Katzkin as we are a Mopar accessory fulfillment, so i get a discount.

Looks like I will be looking at the T1000. :D

I'm trying a few avenues, may do both of these before Christmas.
