Wanted to introduce myself. I got me a 2016 RAM 5.7 Sport on 12/9. I Purchased the truck unexpectedly in Phoenix, AZ while visiting family and drove back to Arlington, TX a week later. Its a big difference as i'm coming over from the Audi Euro scene. Going from a lowered Audi to this gives me a monster truck feeling. :D

Been looking up a bunch of random threads just trying to get a feel for what comes up with our trucks and excited to get more involved as the time goes on. Here are the only pics I have at the moment, currently no changes have been made except of a short bullet style antenna and a pair of factory slush mats (which i'm not 100% sure the fronts are the correct fit for this model) I got for cheap while on a trip back to AZ over the Christmas holiday. Ill take a pic of them after work to see if anyone can cosign if they are for a different model.

Thank you all.

Welcome..Nice truck! First thing I would do is check the carpet under your back seats after a rain to make sure you don't have any water leaks.

Thanks good call on this, I saw a few threads talking about the 3rd light leaking but I think this was while running aftermarket LED ones. Ill make sure to check this out for sure after the next rainy day.

Great looking truck!!!!

Looks like it has been leveled

Thanks everyone! Its been great having it for this first month. There is a few mods I have lined up to get to eventually. Leveling was one that I wanted to get to at one point, in this pic it does look leveled out but might be the angle. One thing is that is does have the air suspension which from what I have read a lot like but equally hate.

Welcome to the sport club. Remove black vinyl on door pillars (nice body colored paint underneath) and remove decals. 2 simple diy projects that make a big difference in looks imo.

Welcome to Ramville and the Sport Club! I'm on my 4th RAM and 1st Sport. My previous RAM was a Laramie Longhorn. I loved the truck but grew very tired of all the chrome.

Removing the vinyl on the pillars is actually next on the list with debadging and removing the dealership decals. Then after im hoping to source a black set of running boards and maybe do a bed mat for now.
