    Tow mirrors - passenger side main mirror convex glass?

    The passenger side tow mirror on my '21 Limited has the flat glass on the main mirror. I find it to be pretty useless. I don't flip them up because it looks dumb, but the flat glass gives me no view at all and the convex portion isn't very helpful when it's vertical. Does anyone know of a...

    Considering Ram - opinions on my choices so far

    Get the Hemi, if for no reason other than resale value. V6 and 4x2 are death for resale. I bought two weeks ago and gave up 1500 in rebates to get 0/72. I did the math and 0/72 saves me over $3k on interest over the life of the low interest (2.5%) 60 month loan that I would usually use. I took...

    Mud flaps

    If you like flexible flaps and don't mind figuring out the install yourself, Rally Armor makes awesome Urethane flaps. You can get universal ones, you just need to put holes and line them up with the fender screws, possibly add a spacer. I did it on my last RAM (yes, I like black trucks and I...

    Mud flaps

    I like Weathertech stuff as well, but went with Husky for this truck because they're a bit bigger and I live in snow country, and have dirt roads in my area that I have to traverse sometimes. $30 for a damaged box with perfect flaps inside is a bargain every day of the week, so it was a no brainer.

    Any Firefighters?

    I just had a visor light installed with a universal mount on the sun visor mounting points in my 18. Haven't moved it over to my 21.

    TRX sold @ auction 20% over MSRP

    Dang, my dealer was going to sell me a preorder TRX at 1% under invoice (our standard deal), but he didn't get any allocation. Boo.

    Husky splash guards / mud flaps

    Got em in my Amazon cart, just too cold here to deal with right now! My last six vehicles (five drivers in my house, ouch) have had black wheels too, so I'm getting to be pretty good at this lug nut swapping thing. lol

    Frigid cold- Ram 1500 impresses me!

    This thread is adorable. It hasn't been above 5 degrees all week in Iowa. I never even thought twice about any of my cars starting in the cold. Silly southerners. 😁 Wind chill affects ambulatory meatbags, not machinery; it's just a way of expressing how cold it feels as opposed to how cold it...

    Husky splash guards / mud flaps

    I would have gone with Weathertech normally, but at the price and free returns, and Weathertech being $100 after shipping, I figured I'd give the Huskies a go. I looked at the instructions for them, the rears mount exactly the same, with an optional screw that you can put through the liner on...

    Husky splash guards / mud flaps

    Here's a full side pic for those interested. I noticed there's another set on Amazon Warehouse this morning for $30 with the same description mine had - very good, damaged packaging. Great deal for anyone looking.

    Husky splash guards / mud flaps

    They said they wouldn't fit on Amazon, but with free returns, I figured it was just that the description hadn't been updated by Husky. I was correct - they fit perfectly. I did not use the extra screw, but it would just go through the plastic wheel liner, using a clip nut type thingy on the...

    Husky splash guards / mud flaps

    Installed these today, got a heck of a deal on an Amazon Warehouse "like new" item. Box was rough but the flaps were perfect. $28! Install was easy and I think they look pretty good - little before and after action below... The pics make them look a lot greyer than they are IRL - they appear...

    New 21 Limited Night Edition

    Done! Not sure which vitals you want, I couldn't find a pulse and the BP cuff wouldn't fit.
