JAG’s RAM swap

[__JAG__]

It was time for an upgrade. Getting rid of the 2017 1500 Tradesman. It’s been a great truck. Flawless with no issues with 95k miles.

Was going to order one, but couldn’t order exactly what I wanted so I found one locally on a lot. Caught it in route so I snagged it before it hit the lot. Just picked it up yesterday. It’s a 2022 Big Horn 4x4 Night Edition Crew cab short bed.

I love this truck. So much nicer than my 17.

Going to give it bath tomorrow and wash the blue off the tires. Going to try and not drive it much until I ceramic coat it.

First Mod: Had to fill those awful holes in the front bumper. Thanks @Acogs91 for the sweet color matched and cleared plugs.

Does Acogs sell those in a chrome finish? looks great.

Thanks I think they look much better than the hold.

I'm not sure. I would ask him in this thread:

Haven’t been driving the truck much to keep the paint in good shape. I did the full package this weekend. Washed, decon, and polish. Than applied Gtechniq CSL and Exo on the paint. And applied C5 on the wheel faces and barrels.

I still have to get it, but I need to get some C4 for the trim. And decide on a window coating.

I’m going to drive the old truck this week while the coating cures.
