Friday leaving the store I noticed my back cam wasn’t working,few minutes later my radio froze up,but just the SiriusXM part,FM still worked. Today driving the radio just restarted. Thinking about dropping it off at the Dealership next week,hopefully they can figure it out.

I bought my 21 Laramie 2500 in early January and been busy modding it, so this is my catch up post.

The list of Mods so far:
2" Leveling kit
General Grabber ATX 35x12.5x20 tires
XD 847 Outbreak Wheels 20x9 +18mm offset
MGD Caliper Covers
Amp Research Power Steps
GatorTrax Tonneau Cover
Bedrug Bed Mat
4" Nilite Led Rear Aux lights on custom fabbed brackets
20" Nilite and (2) 6.5" Nilite front led light bars
Tyger Front Bumper Guard
Trigger 4 wireless switch pod and controller for the lights
12" anti-glare screen protector for center screen
Husky XAct Contour front and rear floor mats
15% Tint on Front Windows tocmatch rears
And my favorite, the "back the blue" flag decals

It's been a busy (and expensive) few weeks...

A few pics, but sorry for the dirty truck.

I'm not big on lack of chrome but the gray looks nice. I like the push bar and lights. That trigger system is pretty slick and easy option.

Installed Thuren 1" front lift coils, Active Rate Sway bar and Fox 2.0 IFP shocks on all corners. What a difference this makes in the overall ride of the truck, I'm super happy with the results. And the bonus is the Fox shocks in the rear makes the rear springs way less harsh feeling too! Wasn't expecting that so much. Also threw on an AMP Research bed step, wanted the Mopar one but the wife liked the AMP better since it's larger and since she's not known for her agility lol.

Drove it. Mostly fairly gently. May have given it 1/2 throttle a couple times.

I traded mine in..... Nothing wrong with it just time to trade. I traded a 2016 F150 King Ranch 4X4 in on the Ram Limited and now I'm back in a Ford F150 Platinum Powerboost (hybrid 3.5l TT) 4X4. So I'll pretty much disappear for a couple of years again. 20210220_123054.jpg 20210218_192244.jpg

Congrats! Beautiful truck.
I think you posted these on the F150 forum, correct? Look familiar, unless I'm thinking of someone else.

You really think it will take you 2 years to come to your senses? :p:confused::D

Some great info and beautiful trucks on this thread. Thanks to all!

I wanted to wait until I knew I loved my 2019 before I started mods,

Here is my "before" pic. I will post a "before" and an "after" when I am done with this round of mods.

Here is the "Round 1" plan;

1. Edgy links to level
2. Mopar interior mats (already bought)
3. Upgrade to Cooper XLT 275/65/20 or 285/65/20 or similar.
4. Black powder coat OEM boards
5. Debadge - did this to my 2014. Really cleaned up the look.
6. Black hood emblems.
7. Black tow mirror covers (if I can find them)
8. Tint front windows.

I am not looking to blackout all my chrome, just want to reduce it. I think a little of both will look good.
