Welcome! And thanks for saying hi!

Well like buying any used vehicle, I'd recommend changing all fluids bumper to bumper. For the trans just check the fluid condition and if you feel it needs it just do a drain and fill a couple times.

Being as it is a mopar vehicle, it most likely will take special oils, I dont have a gen 3 so you should head to gen 3 forums and do a search just in case.

I've always like air brushed murals, one day I'll get me a windowless van and get that Skywalker mural on the sides lol I loved those when I was a kid

Take care of her and she will take care of you. The owners of this forum are knowledgeable and love to help but most of the questions you will ever have will probably already been answered so dont be a stranger to the search function.

Have a stellar day and enjoy your new truck!

Hello thanks for letting me join. I purchased a 5.9 v8 ram yesterday. This is my first American truck. I’m open to advise and guidance.

Welcome to the family. Do what Nick_ rp said and you should be fine, take care of you’re truck and she’ll take care of you. The main thing is to keep up on preventative maintenance and check fluid levels regularly. Good luck and have fun with you’re good’ol American truck.
