Did a few things this week on the 2015 Express I bought last month. First, a buddy of mine gave me a tri-fold tonneau cover he had in his shop from a Ram he traded in a couple of years ago. I also added a set of Spyder LED tails and DDM LED low beams. Although I've been a customer of DDM for close to 10 years I think this was my last purchase. It took 3 weeks for the bulbs to arrive and their only response to my complaint was to say next time I should send them a message asking my item be shipped from in the US immediately after placing my order. WTF?

So who drives in show with their ram 2500? We got a lot of snow today in Kansas and it slushed up this afternoon and it will be in the teens tomorrow when I go to work. Should I attempt to drive in 4hi or 4low?

Have they done any plowing in your area? I am sure they plowed the main roads but not the sides roads.

I am sure most plows were on 70 trying to get it back open.

Big weekend so far! Bought a used camper shell on Craigslist that had a perfect paint match. Then went off-roading with the local off road club for the first time ever and ran some Jeep trails. Only broke off a center wheel cap and some pin stripes :D

Paint looks slightly off because they waxed the shell...my truck isn't that clean lol.

I wouldn’t use either unless you’re needing the extra traction for taking off, or climbing any grades. 4WD doesn’t help stopping or cornering. Back when I lived in Colorado, my favorite thing to do was get about 4 or 5 bags of tube sand from Home Depot.

That’s what we use to do. Back in 96-2000 I only had an elcamino and it was only rear wheel drive. Drove a 93 bronco with 4x4 but never used it even in the blizzards of 97 and 98 in Colorado. Only reaso I got the 4x4 on the ram was because it they did not offer 2wd at that dealership

Why buy a 4wd then ? I have 4wd and plan on using it on my way to work in the morning having the extra traction it offers is nice.
I am pretty sure everybody knows its not going to make your truck stop better.lol

I only got it because that’s all they were selling at the dealership we went to to get it. Better deal with the 4wd vs going somewhere else and get a 2wd
