I've had my Ram 1500 for less than two weeks now. I'm at 1000 kms (in Canada). I must say, I absolutely love the truck. We've been through our first winter storm together and she handled it quite easily. The Falken Wildpeaks are very good in the winter so far. I'm getting 18mpg with a 50% highway/city mix. That's about what I expected and I'm happy with that. I know I have a Hemi but I don't drive it like a muscle car. It gets up to speed with little effort and it cruises easily. The power is there if I need it. I really can't' think of anything I dislike about it at this point. The interior lighting could be brighter maybe? The cabin lights are a bit dim when I'm looking for something in the dark. Maybe there is an aftermarket solution for that. I'm keeping her a long time and she'll be well cared for. I love driving her and the truck feels very well put together and solid on the road.

Here's what she has:

2020 Patriot Blue
5.7 Hemi
Bighorn North Edition-1" factory lift, skid plates, Falken Wildpeak AT3, locking rear diff and 4wd auto, heated seats and steering, block heater, heated mirrors, power folding mirrors, 8.4" uconnect,
Add Ons so far-spray in bed liner, tonneau cover, side steps for the wife

Welcome, and nice truck! I believe you can upgrade the interior bulbs to LED's for more, whiter light.
Enjoy!

Congrats on your new truck! Looks great! And you got the fastest color too!! I agree with you about the Falken tires working great in winter. I'm on my second winter with them and they have worked excellent so far.

Just got mine striped, thoughts on the job? All done totally freehand. Only extras on my truck is a B2Fabrications exhaust and a cold air intake. Truck runs like a ***** ape!

REALLY nice looking ride. U can do all the Interior Lighting to LED. The only lighting inside I did not change was the lower glove box. Here is what I used on MY 2019. NOW the upper console is a Major PITA. If U do, when U take down, besides the 2 screws in the glasses holder, there are (2) clips up there in the middle U have to disengage, besides the ones around the sides. Be real careful. Earlier threads did not have that info and I broke both of my center clips, grrrr.

Having the side steps for the Wife helped me get away with going over budget for a Tow Vehicle.... and by the way... "Arrest Me RED" is the Fastest Color.... ask anyone with a Badge.
