My first Ram was a doodoo brown with rusty flakes 89 LWB1500. It had a 318 and I think it was an 833 I had to replace that really sucked. I traded that truck in on my first new vehicle which was a 2004 Ram quad cab with a Hemi. I would rather replace another 833 than the spark plugs on that back passenger cylinder.
Now many years later I recently sold sold my W900 Kenworth and just bought a 2024 Crew cab 4500. I just made my first drive tonight after getting a hitch and fenders on it. I hooked up a trailer, loaded my Avalanche and took my first real drive.
I bought a tradesman and plan to upgrade it as it makes me money running hotshots. After todays drive Im not sure I am going to wait on the radio. I want to replace the Uconnect 3 with 5" display with something that is android auto compatible and will sound at least as good as the factory Bose amp and sub with a Kenwood deck sounds in my Avalanche. I would also like to look into some captains chairs and cup holders that would allow me to delete the front bench and center console. Has anyone done these upgrades?
I'm also interested in hearing what you guys might think are some of the most important upgrades I might consider for this truck.
