I have to say that I have truck envy!

I’ve been driving a white truck for about 15yrs now and decided to swap to black on this Ram and I have deep regrets! Still love my truck, but my next one will definitely be white again. Looks great!

Thanks, I appreciate that. It’s my first white vehicle and I’m very happy I got this truck in white. I almost went with red but decided against it which is unlike me. Your truck looks good too.

That looks nice! What winch mount kit did you use or was it custom? Any photos during install?

and post up when you get to use it!

Thanks TruckDriver! I went with Vice Design Winch Mount, A thin steel plate was fabricated then powder-coated and put over the Vice winch mount to cover the side welding marks and give it a cleaner look, I went with the Power Wagon fairlead as well purchased a dark Warn Hook as i didn't like the shiny one that came with the winch. Unfortunately i don't have any photos of the installation i just dropped the car and later picked it up! The garage informed me The Vice Design installation video was straight forward.

Couple small changes to the Sport. Added Mopar running boards (82215301AC), Tyger tonneau cover and tinted front windows to match the rear.

Mopar running boards were expensive considering what's on the market but I have to say the quality seems great and I love the look of them.
Tyger tonneau cover is not bad, the fit isn't perfect and it leaks water from the front. I've tried adjusting it but have kind of just accepted it at this point, I don't keep anything in the bed anyways. In the US it's a steal for $185 on amazon but I paid $425 shipped in Canada, so for the fit and quality it's definitely not the best (in case my Canadian friends are considering this).

Next modification I'm looking at is the Corsa Performance Resonator delete (part 21037). I want to add a bit more beef to the exhaust sound without my neighbours hating me. I haven't found a full exhaust I love so I'm hoping this will give me the bit of excitement I'm looking for. I've searched on here but haven't seen anything about just the corsa res delete, everything I found was paired with a full exhaust. So I might be disappointed but only one way to find out!

nice truck!! im thinking if you just get the corsa resonator delete, you might be disappointed. For about $220 US dollars, you can get a bolt on muffler replacement. I think you'd like the B2 Fabrication "oval" muffler - it's his least aggressive option, the quality is great, and its not much more expensive than the corsa resonator delete. the corsa is crazy expensive brand new for it just being a straight pipe lol

I’ve been eyeing the B2 mild version...have you done that one specifically?

not the mild one, but i have been running his aggressive "round" muffler for almost a year now. I currently have all resonators deleted as well. Love it, definitely loud, but has a great smooth tone that's not raspy at all. it's like a punch to the face lol

Thanks! I'll take a look at the B2 Fabrication Oval like you suggest. I think my biggest thing with all the mufflers is you have to cut them out, with the res delete, it's easy on/off bolts and worse case I just sell it if I don't like it. I feel like the muffler is a bigger change if I want to go back to stock for any reason but I could be wrong.

yeah its just one cut with a sawzaw to replace the big muffler. I never used a sawzaw before in my life, and used it for the first time on my 3 day old brand new truck to cut my muffler and i did fine, im sure you will too :ROFLMAO: you're just unfortunately not going to notice much by swapping out that front resonator with the corsa on an otherwise stock system, but youre right that it is super easy to install being a bolted-on piece

After some long, BUT not too painful research, I'm picking up the Nextbase 622GW Dash Cam today along w/ the Rear Facing ("Cabin") Camera and the Rear Window cameras. WAY more than I originally budgeted, but they have terrific features, so hopefully they'll live up to their spec's and price!

And I'm leaning on a Pro install, UNLESS my wife will trust me to "rip apart" my Limited! ;)

What are the use cases for these? Is it just capturing a potential accident or break in?

I installed the 522 with the rear camera in my truck. I researched this camera also. The 522 model was the only model available at the time I Purchased mine. I really like the features. I Purchased the hardwire kit. Super easy installI. I have to look into the 622 model. I also installed the 522 in my wife and daughters cars. Front camera only.

I decided to bypass the truck battery and run the wires inside the center console. I hooked it up to an 11 amp hour battery pack because I want to use parking mode and not worry about draining the truck battery. It works out great because there’s 120 V plug in there so the battery pack is charging when the truck is running. Everything is totally hidden when the drink holder tray is slid all the way forward
