Of course. Sorry. 35x12.5 R20

So 33x12.5x20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers LT can go with stock black appearance package. Do you know if it can go with off-road package with air suspension? my stock tire is LT275 /65R18C OWL On / Off–Road Tires

Well, its finally in. Some details about the truck first.
I ordered a Laramie Black Appearance on May 1st. It was built May 19th. I did not order Ram Box nor E-Torque but loaded it up pretty good.
Here is a copy of my order

I live in Michigan and my uncle did speed up my delivery for me, so if anyone is comparing the build time to theirs, I am not a good example. I hope yours comes in soon, though.

Part of having this connection however has allowed me to receive what I have been told was the first ever built 2019 Laramie Black Edition. No one was screwed over in the process. Mine did take cuts, but no one lost more than a few minutes of build time. I hear they build over 600 a day.

Below is my purchase price after Employee Pricing and other rebates. I also added aftermarket 33x12.5 Fuel Assault Wheels and Nitto Ridge Grapplers. I also added window tints, backseat headrest DVD players, and window vents. The dealer gave me 1000 buy back for the wheels I removed. (I highly recommend). I removed the 22's that come with Black package.

Prices are shown on the receipt.

I paid case on delivery 60,117.26. Without the additions, it would have been 58K.

And now for the truck.

Few parting words...
I didnt notice any hesitation when slowing down.
I did have a few glitches with the Uconnect when trying to set up but I am still working it out.
Android Auto (which I will never use) was really glitchy and I dont like it, never have.
The tires do NOT rub at all. But I havent hit a curb going faster than normal pace yet. (I will post wheel info on the other thread)
19 speaker HK Sound was great, no complaints by me. I came from a 2014 Sierra with no back speakers, although I had BOSE sound, this truck killed it instantly could tell a difference.

The 12 inch screen is absolutely worth every penny. Do not get cheap with that if you haven't ordered yet. Customize other things later, but that is a must.
I was prepared to purchase a F150 until I saw this truck at the auto show. Gave up on it, thinking it wouldnt be out till much later in the year. I needed to make a move now and the 12 inch screen sold me, and the other items on this truck just kill the competition.

This forum has become not just a resource, but a hobby and sport for me the past 3 months. Much thanks to Jared, Dsooby, DevilDodge, FireCadet, and even Alcombe (for the entertainment, LOL) and many others I have communicated with. Much thanks to the rest for your input while I stalked for a month before I joined and became a fan. Every piece of advice I read in here helped me for the first time ever custom build a truck/car EXACTLY how I like it. I couldnt have enjoyed this process more. Thanks everyone.

I think I will stick around for a while and see how you all are doing.
Good Luck!

I love the wheels! Are those the matte black or glossy Fuel Assault Wheels?

 

[BZ23]

I wanted matte, but they came wrong, glossy. However, I was anxious, still like them, and have no regrets. Thanks

no clue, but I suppose it could with off road package. the air suspension concerned me, so i did not get it. I live in Michigan and the cold weather concerned me with air, and I preferred the wheels over the air suspension.

Your truck is gorgeous! Literally the best looking 2019 ram that I’ve seen. I’m about to pull the trigger on a black appearance package and I’m using yours as my template (hope you don’t mind). Have you had any trouble with the tires rubbing or any issues with that wheel/tire combo? I’m almost certainly going to get the air suspension. Do you see any issues with your wheel/tire setup and air suspension? And lastly, I don’t see anywhere that you said you had a lift on your truck so am I right to assume that it is stock and without a lift? Thanks!

Thanks Sooner! I love it still and appreciate the words and hope you do the same thing. You know what they say, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Have at it. I have never rubbed once. I do not have a lift, and even through tons of snow in Michigan, and many potholes and dirt roads, I have never rubbed. I dont know enough about the air suspension but there are some very smart guys on this forum that may be able to help you.
