Montana's RAM

[Montana_]

'22 RAM 1500 5.7 ET Longhorn









Modifications:

• 275/55R20 Back Country AT2 (LS/Cooper)
• Mopar Window Deflectors *Currently cheap knockoffs that will be replaced 10/10/24
• AVS Bugflector II (Smoke) *Currently not shown (enroute)
• Gatorback Mudflaps (no logo)
• Mopar Slush Mats (front only)
• Tint (15% fronts, 5% rears, 5% sunstrip) *Currently not shown (tint date next week)
• Viofo A139 Dashcam w/ 10 pin USB adapter
• A/S/S Eliminator
• OffRoam Phone Mount
• Janky Knockoff Bumper Step that actually works (for now)
• Center Console Organizers 1 & 2

Some things to note:

• Bought used @19k
• 8.4" Screen
• No BSM or ACC/Lane keep
• Panoramic Sunroof
• Air Suspension
• E-Torque
• 3.21

Some of those are obvious for this model, but if I had bought new (not paying new prices so compromises were made) I would have gotten a 3.92 model with no sunroof, no E-Torque, and no air suspension. So, living in Montana, it's a question of when not if for the air suspension to freeze/act up. I am planning a Bilstein 5100 delete when it happens and I added a small amount of antifreeze to the system so we'll hope for the best. Until the inevitable happens, I gotta say... it's so nice. I even tested it off road and I was shocked. I have a spot I go to that is not an easy climb and the entry/exit scrapes everything I ever took near it. Not the RAM in OR2. I was able to back in perfectly. The only other vehicle I had that didn't scrape up that spot was a Tacoma with a 3" lift. But that's really not the intention of this RAM. It's my Cowboy Cadillac. Admittedly also enjoying the sunroof. Much better than FORD's I've had with panoramic sunroofs.

Anyways... it is what it is on those options. I'm happy to have the 8.4" screen vs. the 12" disaster but the rest I could do without. 3.21's are fine btw, but if I had the option... sure, I'd love some 3.92's

Being a Montana truck, the sunroof doesn't give me a lot of hope, especially considering the amount of leaky roofs and 3rd brake lights people already have. So it's on the watch list and once you make the lists... you don't get off the list. Ever.

Other plans:

• Possibly a tuner / unlocked PCM to disable MDS and remove the speed limiter but nothing else really planned.
• Maybe a tool box in the back.
