Well I picked my truck up Friday from my dealer. Very happy with it so far. it had 15 miles on it from where they gave it a test run making sure every thing was good. we took a 5 miles test drive before we signed everything so when we left it had 20 miles on her. even though i ordered the truck on 4-11 they never even brought up what they gave me on the trade in. i didn't put many miles on it as i figured less chance on any thing bad happening to my 13 ram. we took a nice ride to go out to eat and put on about 80 more miles. a lot of them 4 lane highway. 2 of the things that i heard issues about from some of the guys here worked fine. first the AC. it was in the mid 80's full sun and it cooled off the truck very well. now we will see next week when it will be in the 90's and humid. 2nd thing was the volume of the sound with the HK 19 speakers with the sirius mode which i listen to 99% of the time. even though my hearing is not the best i only had to have the volume at 20 or 21 with the AC on and it was plenty. i was very satisfied with this. the 12 inch u- connect worked with no issues and it will take some time to get used to it. i think i read from one of the guys here that there was a software up date with the u-connect system. i don't know if that was it or not. all of the safety features worked. i was already used to these since my wife has a 17 GC summit which has them also. the 360 camera is really a nice thing to have where you can now see all around instead of just behind you. i'm going to have to used to using the side steps where i think they stick out further than the ones i had on my 13 ram. i'm 6-4 and i didn't have to use them much. the ride was very a very smooth ride which i heard from a lot of our guys already. one minor thing i was a little disappointed

in, was the ambient lighting. it seems to be in white where my 13 has the blue which i think is much better looking. i don't know if it can be changed. looking forward to driving it more before i take my pittsburgh trip. i'm hoping to get my Access Lorado low-profile roll up cover put on next week as i had this one on my last 2 trucks. also will get my front windows tinted to match my back ones.
side note. just want to thank the members of this forum for all the great info on ordering and then the waiting process. this is the only ram forum i look at and it made it a lot easier for me. hope all the people who are waiting on their trucks get them soon, and for the folks who are having issues get them fixed as soon as possible. for the guys here who say they are ready to give up on their order and go get another brand of truck, DON'T. i really think you will regret it.
here are a few pics. Saying goodbye to my 13, which was my best vehicle ever. Hopefully the 19 will top it.
