First Time Truck Owner

[O Captain My Captian]

It has been 3 days since I took delivery of our new 2020 Ram 1500 and the family couldn't be happier. I had been trying to keep the truck a surprise for the kids but they found out I had bought it, so I told them the wrong delivery date so I could again try to surprise them. I took a Lyft ride to work expecting the delivery company to deliver the truck to my office, but wouldn't you know it, they delivered it to my home. Looks like all the surprises were on me.

I have to complement the users of this forum for the wealth of information I received about mods and DIY. I never did anything like that with any of my vehicles. I love making this truck truly my own.
Next week, it ("Springsteen") goes in for Xpel PPF and Window tinting (UV/IR blocking). I will do the dashcam install and sway bar install myself. Looking forward to great times!

Welcome and congrats on your new Ram and have fun modding it out to make it your own.

Beautiful truck. What does your payload sticker on the door jamb show?

3 Kids max.

3 Kids max.

Haha. Do you have the actual number? Just curious of a limited with MFT and ram box..I have a limited long box and it's a fat pig.

 

[O Captain My Captian]

I’ll check it in the morning.

 

[J-Cooz]

Payload?

 

[O Captain My Captian]

Sorry.
I had given the truck to have the PPF and Window tint installed. I forgot to look at the payload sticker. My apologies. Truck should be back in about a week.

beautiful looking truck and congratulations! I just got my 2019 Ram 1500 Limited two weeks ago. Thanks to a Corona discount. Was a diehard Chevy guy... and I can tell you there is zero doubt. Ram has the best all around truck and it’s not even close.
