Figured this is a better place to post updates than my thread in the new members area.

Ive been a jeep guy since getting my license, but always wanted a pick up. With my car build just being finished, and becoming a home owner in recent years. I decided a pick up finally makes sense. So now ill have something to tow the car with, and haul whatever needs hauling for home reno.

2018 Ram 1500 Express
5.7 4x4
White with grey interior.

Here it is the day i bought it home. Got a hell of a deal being a former employee of the dealer combine with them wanting to blow out the 2018 left overs to make room for thhe 5th gens.

That is a nice looking truck, I wanted a white 2018 but settled for a Billet silver 2019. Do you have plans for it, or are you keeping it as is ? Also I’m in NJ too, which dealership did you pick yours up from ?

Picked it up from Teterboro CJDR. Not the most popular dealer around me for Rams, but as i former employee of there i felt obligated to give them my sale. And they hooked it up!

looks great, i’m partial to the quad cab express. haha

Thank ya! i looked threw you whole thread the other day. Love your truck.

First round of modding done. Nothing much, but its something.

Tint: match factory rear tint on the front windows, 5% visor tint. Will most likely be getting the whole windshield done at 50% once i get some real headlights.

You have a shop in NJ that will do the front windshield huh ? Around my way they will do whatever you want, but most of these tint places install on Monday, and by Wednesday they’ve shut down and have moved to a new location.

Yeah, what's up with that? Last vehicle I had done a few years ago, the guy was all shifty eyed and quoted me a price for cash, no receipt.. You can figure which way I went.

I’m not sure why that is, but also downtown you can get a full tank of gas and while you wait they’ll do a stereo install lol.

The place i bought my truck to is a high end performance shop that also does tint/wrap/Xpel stuff. I have a good working relationship with them, so i dropped it off there and had my delivery driver take me there when it was done. They actually tried to peer pressure me to do the whole windshield now, but i could barely see with these halogens as is.

They both are stupid bright. Small touch, but makes the truck look much more "modern" than that yellow halogen stuff.

Arrrrg lol, I’m blind. :)

The license plate lights are a bit much! Pending how hard it is to do, i may just pull the lenses out and throw some tint/black wrap over the top section so the light doesnt shine up on the gate as much.
