New guy with a 05 Ram

[woolybullyred]

Just saying hello. I recently got a 2005 Ram 1500 rcsb Hemi and 65,000. Truck is in great shape minus some the paint on the roof which I'll address down the road.

Mods so far:
blackened some emblems
Pypes violator muffler
LEDs bulbs and fog lights
Husky liner floor mats

Future mods:
2/4 drop
Wheels and tires
Color match all the chrome
Tint

About time you got here, welcome to the super rare RCSB club!
The truck nobody wants, but never stays for sale.
Now that I'm back I'll work on getting some updated photos, I'm having to rebuild my image library online again since I retired a year ago.

Congrats on getting an '05. IIRC, it was the last year before the switch to the MDS. I've had mine since new, and it still runs great at ~170k miles!

3rd gens are awesome

Definitely like the truck and thanks for the welcomes. I was happy to learn that the 05s didn't have MDS. I hate that stuff.

I'm looking forward to modding this truck. It's basically gonna be my "sports car" but I prefer trucks so it's a perfect match.

I have some maintenance items to address still:
-brake rotors and pads
-There are some door seals that need replacement
-change the rear diff fluid

Forgotten future mods from my initial post:
- S&B cold air intake for more noise
- possible tune with something like a Superchips Flashpaq

I'm also working on my brother's 89 Ram W150 318. I might post up some pics of it in the 1st gen forums. It currently runs and drives. I'm in the process I changing all the fluids since I finally got the fuel delivery issue solved. I'll also be painting in back to the stock Exotic Red color.

Welcome, like that 89

Nice, I got mine for the same reasons, I always wanted a trucked that rumbled.
We're in the middle of having another over-sized, two car garage being built right now.
Soon all my babies will be in a garage.
