Just that quick. I was updating every 100, then we hit a thousand and I figured I would do it every 500, missed that, but here we are.

Also, we are gathering more and more info. Likes, dislikes, wishes, what to look for, what packages to order or not, the list goes on.

We are starting to get more HD info, a mid size may sneak in, and every day we get closer to TRX.

We have members giving great Towing info.

The amount of modifications and how to threads really have amazed me.

The 5th Gen sure takes to the modifications, but I am amazed how many here have already tore down and customized their 5th gen with their own hands.

MPG stories are coming in both good and bad.

Some are already near or over 10000 miles. Some with no problems, but of course we know the 5th Gen isn't without blemish.

Groups of members working together to get lists of problems and working on fixes.

Finding good dealers, and the bad.

We started into some sponsorships/site advertisers.

The Articles keep getting better, insider info is making it's way here in more forms, and Spy photography keeps catching the mules and such.

Be sure to fill out your signature, update when needed. It is amazing how much it helps.

We got some polls to take in a few different threads, and are always interested in new thoughts, questions, or suggestions.

And the road trip stories, weekend trips, get away rides...love hearing and seeing those.

Onward to 3000

Not sure I would have gone all in on a $ 70,000 Limited had I not found this sight. See what you guys did to me!!!

Just kidding, was 1st introduced to this Ram via a friend, then stumbled across this site weeks later. So thankful for the input from all the members. Saved me and others from making countless mistakes.

This forum makes me a more confident and happy owner, knowing there are 2000 other owners to draw ideas and help from if need be. Also to participate in the discussion to help educate and promote about this great resource for new owners and potential buyers in the future.

Congrats on the milestone and can't wait to see 10,000!

We surpassed 3000 members.

Lots of people have their trucks now and have moved on from tracking their trucks daily to discussing driving, mileage, issues, towing.

We still get alot of the same questions, but atleast we are still getting some new info.

Please try out the search button.
We also have a pretty good spread of forums...be sure to check the appropriate forum.

Lots of people have discovered and are using the signature. Please fill it out if you haven't.

Take some of our polls when you get a chance.

The community here is great, we have trucks with issues and we are all in on finding fixes and passing along info from the warranty work.

We got quite a base of payload stickers now. Really helps withthe towing mystery. We really like hearing how the truck works.

Some have taken their trucks off road,and are having a great time with them.

Ram has released some new editions already, and they are listening to our suggestions.

SEMA is this week...some cool things there, and not much longer it will be January.

Insiders are keeping some info flowing as they start seeing more of it being released.

Be sure to check out Moparinsiders.com also.

Thanks for the community and the forums.

Just hit 4000 members. Got some new and exciting things happening. Got some Rebel 12 built and delivered. Got a few Canadian Sports. Finally got a few Tradesman owners.

We got a new website for the HD guys and anyone who likes to talk or research all trucks.

HDRAMS.COM

We have some members getting to use their trucks in the snow and ice, and they seem pleased.

Getting more info about eLocker and Hill descent.

Got lots of modified trucks now and some very talented members doing their own mods, with great write ups.

Build and price still sucks and plenty of work still needs done there.

Some members have found out the issues they have are being fixed and others are still finding new issues.

We also have a lot of trouble free trucks.

Thanks to everyone for making and keeping the community great.

As we hit 7000 members just a few days past the 1 year mark from the debut, it is interesting to look back at everything this site has done.

Biggest change being going from having people track their trucks from deal to pickup. FCA decided they didn't like websites doing this, something most everyone feels should come with the truck, so the website and others had to stop.

We now no longer offer what was a great service. Thanks to all who made it possible and saw it through, the best they could.

We put together a pretty extensive look at issues, what to watch out for, and even have a checklist for pickup. Yes, you do need to make sure things work on a new vehicle.

We put together a pretty good look at Payload and what each option weighs, and a good look at what the difference is between trims and options.

The HD debuted, TRX is still coming and there are a few more things to come. We saw some new packages added.

The Tow Mirrors are still a sore subject, the HD debut brought some awesome ones, but not sure if they will make it to the 1500.

We got to hear how the truck does in the snow, and got some info about cold weather issues.

We still have people doing modifications and making this 5th Gen their own.

Before longthe 2020 trucks will be out and we can discuss what's better, what stayed the same.

Thanks to everyone for making this the best site for 5th Gen Ram information.
Remember, also we have places to discuss other generation Rams as well.

Be sure to check out the new member section and take the polls.

Good times to be, or become a Ram Fan.

I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say thank you to you, @devildodge, @Jared B, and the rest of the 5thgenrams.com editing and moderating team. Great site!
