Once your credit score is high enough, opening a new card won't affect it enough to cause damage. Or that's how I understand it anyways. Card can always be cancelled too so as to not lower your credit age for long

2 point hit for two years. Also increases your 'available credit' which lowers your % of utilization.

First post... Just bought my slightly used 2021 1500 Limited a week ago.. So today went and ordered my Rough Country 2" level kit - XD series 820 Grenade wheels Black and Blue in 20x9 and new Toyo Open County RT 295/55R20 tires
Did you find a kit compatible with the Air Suspension?

Curious which Lasfit bulb you used to swap out the OEM for the red lights?

Is it SKU "L-T10R" -> 194 168 W5W CANBUS Error Free LED Third Brake Tail Light, Side Marker Bulbs | Brilliant Red?

That sucks! Just cosmetic damage? Sorry for your shi**y day.
Fortunately, it appears just cosmetic! The hit wasn't too hard, maybe about 10mph. The bottom of my bunper took the majority of the hit since his car was a Civic and I essentially hit the top of his trunk cause of the small hill.

Not too bummed about it, since I want to upgrade the bumper 😅 just bummed about the insurance process.

I ordered a Banks PedalMonster. I love the power of my truck but the pedal response is pretty spongy. My 2008 Tundra had a very responsive feel to the accelerator and I miss that. I'm hoping the PedalMonster can replicate that responsiveness.

Added the carbon fiber cover for the center console!
Just ordered the piece for the radio cluster! I love these pieces. For someone like me who only has a bighorn it sure makes the inside look a lot nicer even though it’s just a piece of plastic lol

What issues did you have? I know others have thought about doing it including me. What springs did you use?
I did forget to mention a couple other issues. I'm not sure if the truck uses pitch and yaw sensors, but something about the leveled geometry seemingly caused the stability control to engage more readily. Granted it wasn't an everyday issue, but there are moments I like to have fun with the traction control off and the angle of drift was reduced. Also the rear axle was no longer centered left to right and front to back, it was only off by a little but enough for me to notice. Technically the caster was changed as well but I don't think that affected much of anything

In the past couple of days I've replaced the shift knob with the AJT Design black one and I love it. It feels better than the stock one as far as being able to grip it and it just looks so much better. Can't decide if I want to go for the other dash knobs from them because from the pictures it looks like you can still see some of the silver around the inside rim of them where they just overlay the existing knobs instead of actually removing them like the shift knob.

I also installed some black lug nuts because I'm not sure why Ram didn't do this from the factory for the Night Edition wheels. Love the way it looks with that subtle change.

Tomorrow I'm installing the Hellwig sway bar and Borla S-type exhaust. Can we say tax return? haha

I noticed that too about the AJT radio knobs and it's the reason I haven't pulled the trigger on them. I like my shifter knob for the same reasons you mentioned.

I noticed my neighbors Chevy Trail Boss Midnight Edition has chrome lug nuts like our Ram's. It doesn't make sense.

I like the shifter job from AJT and have been looking at it for a while. But i can’t justify spending $75 on just a knob.

I have all kinds of billet parts on my dirt bike and $75 seems to be the going price for similar sized items. IMO, the AJT shifter knob is well worth the $75 price tag. The look alone is enough for me but the feel of the AJT knob is so much better than stock.

What lugs did you buy? I dont get why Ram doesn't give locking lug nuts as standard.

Here are the lug nuts I bought that were recommended by someone here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/143905797831
Here are the wheel locks I used also that were recommended here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007QB59DY/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_HT4Q63SDX2HNMJ1K534Q?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

The feel of it is sooo much better with the way the outside of it is shaped to let your fingers grip it better. It does look a ton better, too.

Would someone really tamper with thier credit score to save $100? 🤔 Does not seem like the savvy move unless they are just starting out and needing to build cred.
Your logic isn't sound. A credit score is something you use, not hoard. You need good credit to get credit, and you need to use credit to build a good score. You're not going to get a credit card with good credit, only to have your score damaged by getting a card, thereby putting your good score to use. Your credit score falters by having too much debt, and by missing payments. Besides, if you have 1 or 3 cards, and you already have a mortgage and car payment, how else exactly do you apply your credit score in the first place?

I ordered both the shift and radio/climate knobs. Still saying backorder until 7/31.
