Finally after all of my headaches with my 2012 RAM 1500 Laramie over the past month or so, my patience paid off via a special deal on a 2018 RAM 1500 Limited Tungsten edition. Got what I wanted for sure. 6.4 bed, ramboxes, trailer/tow package, and all the trimmings. Good things come to those who wait right? Snapped some quick pics below, will get some better pics in better light over the next couple of days.

Looks real good and its the best color :)

Yes, Delmonico Red is growing on me. I was originally looking for a maximum steel metallic with the darker interior, but couldn’t find one with the options I wanted. Will have to be diligent caring for the lighter interior, but everyone seems to like the metallic red so far. [emoji1]

Nice looking truck. What does the Tungsten get you over a standard Limited other than the obvious leather color change? A few of things I noticed were the black headlight and tails vs the chrome that the Laramies come with, fender flares that don’t normally happen unless the Limited appearance package with chrome bumpers happen and the chrome trim piece on side doors/bed. I love the interior of my Limited. I felt it was the best available half ton interior when I bought mine back in 2014 after looking at the Ford Platinum, Sierra Denali & Tundra Platinum.

Natura Plus Frost leather interior with Indigo Blue accents, plus the following right off the window sticker:

Basically most of the chromed items become body color, and what is left of chrome uses a special matte platinum chrome which I like much more than the stock chrome accents. I didn’t snap a pic of the rear of the truck because I had already backed it into where I park which limits access to the rear tailgate area - but I also like the body color RAM emblem on the tailgate. It also gets most of the sport model upgrades including sport hood, blacked out headlights and tails, etc. Lastly, special rims with platinum accents.

Sweet! I initially wanted Delmonico Red too but was easily swayed by Max Steel! Nice choice and looks killer!

Yes I really liked the max steel as well, it has a bluish hue to it and it’s only available on the 1500 line which makes it more rare comparatively. Enjoy!

Very nice...The Limited was the only other trim package I was interested in when I bought my Longhorn.

I like that body color ram on the tailgate, much better than that chrome.

Tungsten must be the trim level. I'd have guessed tungsten should have been the paint color :hidesbehindsofa:
The Tungsten Edition is a Limited like the Southfork Edition is to the Longhorn. It’s still a Limited like mine but really the only thing fancier than mine is the suede leather headliner and the indigo/frost interior color. Well that, the sport hood and that the grill, tailgate trim and door trim is in kind of a Tungsten-colored chrome but it’s still basically the same truck.

I woulda liked one when I was shopping for trucks but if they woulda had more of that Tungsten-chrome on it, I woulda been all over it but there’s just too many painted parts on it for my liking.
