I love my chrome! I have a hardworking, dark blue truck who also likes to look fancy after being washed off. I get a lot of compliments on him.

There was a preacher that used to be a member at the golf course I was a member. He drove a Rolls Royce. His son had a chrome vette. It looked ridiculous.View attachment 229504
I guess the results speak for themselves. Op made an error in his original post. the vast majority seem to like chrome. It’s ironic because most of them say it’s because blacked out is played out, but here we are... 3-1 are Chrome.
also bizarre that a significant amount cited “don’t care” Why would they even click on this thread?
Now this is my kina RAM. Very nice! keep up the good work!
I'm not bashing anyone that likes chrome, everyone has got different tastes and that's all good with me.
In todays market it just seems to me like that vast majority of consumers don't want chrome on their trucks, and if they buy a truck with chrome they end up painting over it...
I personally can't stand chrome on my vehicles, i just think it looks cheap and gaudy. I shopped for my truck for a long time to get the one i wanted without any chrome.
I think Ram understands this better than other makers, so many ram trucks are outfitted with color matched bumpers and black accents/wheels.
Ford gets it too, it seems like more F-150's now have paint matched bumpers now as well.
In my opinion it seems like chevy and toyota have a running contest going to see who can fit more ugly chrome on the front of a truck lol
What are your thoughts? Do you guys still like chrome or no chrome?

What wheels are those? They are sexy!!!!!!!!!I personally like chrome and don't think it looks gaudy at all. My Express had color matched bumpers and came with black door handles and mirrors and grill inserts with painted wheels. I have since lifted it and added chrome wheels, door handles, mirrors and grill inserts. I can't stand the new no chrome look and no emblem look and black wheels on everything. I guess it's just a matter of preference. I'm a little older that some of the other guys so maybe that has something to do with it. I will say I get more compliments with this truck than any other truck I have owned so who knows?

Time)) As i said: i don't have time to wash it everyday. Even almost every morning i have to dry night's dew off otherwise dried under the sun water stains so hard to remove.I really don’t know what I’m doing any different from you are but I don’t find it that hard to keep my chrome clean. In the summertime, all I use is just a can of that bug and tar remover to coat the front of it to help the bug splatters wipe off easier and up until I started using a foam cannon, I would just use a bucket with a wash brush and some Maguires car wash soap, then dry it off with a large microfiber towel after spraying some wax-as-you-dry on it.
