Hello all, I am now a proud owner of "Christine", my new '19 Ram Limited. Admittedly, this is my first "Dodge" Ram truck as I have always been a Toyota guy mostly, and even had a Ford Raptor at one time. However, after test driving the new Ram, there was no denying the fact that I just had to have this truck. It could be the perfect vehicle in that it drives like a luxury car/suv, has the interior that competes with any luxury brand, has plenty of power especially with the 3.92 gears, air suspension, and even the option for AWD including 4hi and 4low. Throw in the panaramic sunroof, harmen karden stereo, truck bed, etc., and I really don't know of any other vehicle that does all of these things as well as the new Ram. Oh, did I mention the 12" infotainment system? I feel like a kid in a candy store. Anyway, here are a couple of pics of my girl before I left the dealership. As a newbie, I would like to say hello to everyone and look forward to learning more from this forum and you experienced members. Cheers!

Beautiful color had not seen a granite crystal limited yet. Looks really pretty! Still debating if I want to go with body color bumper group on mine or chrome.

It sucks that NYS makes you put plates on the front too.
Ya but how do you get plates the day you drive it off the lot?

In my state(S. Carolina) if you transfer plates(that's how you avoid property taxes for the first year) you can go ahead and transfer the plates to the new truck before you drive off the lot.

In NY, when you transfer plates, you immediately put them on the new vehicle. Hence, no 30 day tags.

Florida is the same way. You transfer your tag from the old vehicle to the new if the ownership is identical. That’s why my RAM has a customized Scat Pack plate lol.

Great looking truck Paul. That’s the color I originally wanted, but I was unable to find one configured the way I wanted in granite. So opted for the black I swore I was done with lol.

Awesome truck. What's your (and others with the '19 crew cab) opinion on the extra 4" length? I've heard here and from others the cabin is almost too big, and parking is trickier. I'm waiting for the quad cabs to come out.

Feels and looks like my dad’s old megacab. I didn’t drive that daily so others may have a better opinion, but it’s huge to me. I back in everywhere (habit from my Charger) so I haven’t noticed any issues. The auto tilting side mirrors is my biggest adjustment so far.
