I have a 2023 Laramie 1500, looking for a light bar any suggestion?

What is the purpose of one of these?
Additional turn, stop, running and on some reverse lights on the back of the truck.

Wiring any of them is easily done using one of these: CURT 56584 Replacement Vehicle-Side Custom USCAR 5-Pin Trailer Wiring Harness https://a.co/d/4JRJ2UA

You just have to see and check for tailgate clearance, because the change in 2019 to the DT style, really narrowed the gap between the bottom of the tailgate and any mounting point for a light strip. But the adapter and the Curt 5 pin is the way to go to wire up.

I am waiting for some one to come up with a U-Turn light

the way that they make some brands of tailgate , the body shapes are conducive for them.

I've been told that the new Putco light bars are "plug & play" for the 5th gens. I have a Putco, and have been very happy with it. It's your truck, so if you like the looks of the additional lights, go for it.
