I decided to take the plunge and join the forum. I have a 2012 Ram Express QC, 2WD, bought it last November. She is black, came with the chrome wheels, Uconnect, and pwr stuff.

Mods:
Tint- 5% on rear and back, 35% on front (stupid TX law)
Exhaust- Magnaflow 18" welded on, kept baffles in place, stock tips
Hitch
Bedliner- Superliner Spray-in

Future Mods:
Upgrade Sound System- 2 10's under rear seat, replace door and dash speakers
Factory Remote Start
Swap for real upper glove box...haha
Wheel swap for some XD's?
Level Lift for front
RT badge for grill


Any thoughts or ideas??

Also, a question. My iPhone does not sync up well with the radio for streaming music via bluetooth. Anyone else have that problem? Uconnect works great with the phone...

Pics will follow

If you haven't already done so you may want to go into the iPhone settings, ignore the unconnected and set it up again. I don't know what software version you are on but I have 5.1.1 and the iOS 5 guys are linked up to their u-connect with no trouble. The only complaint I have with u-connect is that it doesn't work instantly. That data moves pretty slow. It takes a few seconds for mine to respond to commands. At first I thought mine wasn't working. I don't know if that's your issue. Welcome to RF!

I'll give it a shot. Mine was working, just really bad quality. The phone part worked great...really odd.

See, I have heard that. I checked with alot of shops around here and they said the darkest was 35%. Once I got it done, I think the tint is actually darker than 35 though...not sure.
