I had been looking for them since I bought the truck and I found some a few weeks ago off craigslist. But since I bought them I haven't seen one other 5th gen with them in my area (dallas/fort worth). are they really that hard to get? or are they just so expensive from Mopar that nobody buys them?
I love keeping my vehicles as OEM as possible but still having a customized look. And I'm glad I kept searching and found these.

I saw those too, but wasn't very thrilled with them; not to mention they were pricey. I don't plan on climbing mountains in my Rebel, so if they are a bit lower than the "off road" ones, I'm good with it.
 
I put the Mopar off road running boards on my quad cab Laramie. Did a bunch of research and was limited based on most boards manufactured for crew cabs. Really loved the fact that they were aluminum and bed liner coated. Was surprised at the weight (heavy) when they were delivered, and how wide and sturdy they are mounted to the truck. A bit pricey even with my discount $716 but more than worth it. Won't rust in two years...drove to the dealer after install and were the first they had seen, wishing they had put them on their new rams.

You might want to delete that second picture. Lol
 
I got a set included with my Rebel purchase but did not like the look on the gloss black bottom after installation, so I removed & sold mine. They look great on solid color trucks.
 
I installed the Oem off road running boards middle December,,love them

I’ve had them on my truck close to a year now and have held up great! I have a conditioner for the black on my motorcycle engine called Pig spit that I use on them to bring them back to looking new

I took off the factory power running boards and put these on...Overall I like them-they sit higher than any other running board I've seen and thus give a bit more protection from door dings. I do feel there is something a little off-may just be the dull dark grey look vs the slightly shiny true black of the factory bed liner...When I find some time, I may have LineX re-coat them in deep black. Wonder what they would look like body-color matched?

I have had mine on since September, paid $650 shipped. I love them, they work great. The bed liner material is a little hard to get the mud stains out, need to get a product for cleaning them.

Attached picture was from yesterday.

I liked the look of them but the price was way to steep up here in Canada so went with the GoRhino RB20's for half the price.

I liked the RB20's also but at the time they did not make them for quad cab. Also would have been hard to go with Steel boards and future rust with RB20 verses cast aluminum Ram off roads. Still really love mine.
 
I have the same ones ... please tell me how you cleans these seems impossible.
So far I had my truck washed at one of those hand wash places and they did a great job! How they did it....I have no idea lol. Sorry for being no help at all
 
I added mine Saturday when I picked my truck up.
