This weekend, I got a Retrax Pro MX tonneau, the Mopar Rambox organizer kit, black McGuard lugs, and a new drop shank for our travel trailer, all for my 2020 2500 Hemi received last week. Happy man! Joe

Finally switched my interior lights to LED's. Cargo lights too, I'm not too crazy about the cargo lights. I want something super bright for the back.

Second spring in a row the tractor rear end is leaking. Oh well factory warranty.

Good 35 miles of towing today less than 50mph. But I passed 4 diesels on the way. Nobody towing of course. Probably headed to car wash to clean them big ugly offsets!

But I will admit. Truck is filthy in less than 5 weeks of ownership. Got into a little mud so it's going through car wash Saturday. Anyways. My first contribution to the thread! Love this thing when it's hooked up!

Really digging that look! Looks way better than the huge LED bars. Is your truck leveled? If so, what setup are you running?

Thanks @silverWS6; yeah, I wanted to do something different. I have used the LED light bars too on my other builds but they seem so overused nowadays. Plus, a square light on the new Ram's organic styling doesn't flow very well for me and I didn't want to install one in the lower grille area like most since I am toying with the idea of adding a winch.

But I have to say that installing the (4) round lights on the factory bumper was sort of tedious and nerve wracking in making sure the holes all followed the Rebel's bumper bugle curve and then spaced accurately (being an engineer, I must have measured the holes 20 times before drilling...but have to say, the lights are totally centered and exactly 2-13/16" apart from each other...lol).

Yes, I went with the Falcon 2.25-inch Adjustable Shock Suspension which comes with the piggyback rear shocks. There are (4) front settings and I have mine set for the "Level" setting which is supposed to give you 2-inches of front lift. Unfortunately, mine only netted just over an inch of front lift but Falcon is working with me to fix. As soon as I get the suspension dialed in I am going to add aftermarket wheels, +34-inch Nitto Ridge Grapplers, and an ARE Z-Series topper (all on order).

Just a little vinyl wrap, but what a difference

Was just trying to remove the ftont skid plate from my Rebel to paint it, and I gave up. Way too many bolts but I really the blacked out front bumper!
