First New Vehicle I've Ever Purchased

[PaineTrain04]

Just a little introduction for y'all.

PaineTrain04 from the Northeastern corner of Ohio.
I am 26 years old, married, and a CNC machinist.

I snagged a black 2020 RAM 1500 Bighorn Level 1 package for $36,500 out the door.
5.7L HEMI without the eTorque system, (4x4 of course) with the 3.21 gears.

I am looking for a decent Class IV reciever to put on and not spend as much as the MOPAR brand.

Welcome, sadly I can not help you with that part but I can definitely ask for photos lol.

Ahh. Yes. Photos are to come soon.
Is this forum mobile-friendly? Other forums I have participated in only allowed computer uploads. (I'm only able to access this site on a PC at my work)

I solely use my tablet via Tapatalk and sometimes I see an error after typing a really long list lol.

Nice looking truck, and the price was really good too. Hard to complain about a new tech, quiet, capable truck for $36K!

Hopefully you won’t have any teething issues. Be sure to watch for some of the reported problems, namely leaking 3rd hi-mount brake lense, cracking of the rear glass trim, some say they have wind noise and a few say they had battery/grounding issues. Other complaints are there but really hard to say anything is very common.

Oh and look up the $250 “Bonus Drive” rebate, if it applies to you.

Welcome and congratulations on your new truck

Congrats from a fellow tradesmen! This was my first new vehicle purchase as well. I'm sure you're as proud of yours as I am mine. I hope it treats you well! Enjoy it!

Update: I complained a little bit to the dealer and they gave me an extra class 3 Curt they had taken off of a trade-in.
It is only rated for 6,000 lbs. but it is better than nothing.
Drove home and slapped that hitch on.

That’s good news and just the start of good things to come.
