Hello!

New member I got my 2020 1500 night edition at the end of February and it’s been awesome! I upgraded from a 2017 quad cab which was the Express trim package. That truck had the 6 cylinder w 3.55 gears and I have to say it did everything I asked it to and got good mileage ! Even though it was one of the more basic packages I enjoyed adding little things from upper models.

The new truck is a crew cab 5.7 without e torque with 3.21 gears. So far I have only towed a wood chipper, and an open 16 foot dual axle land scape trailer, both were fine. I have ordered the oem brake controller as well and plan to install with the help of the site.

Some things I have done so far with the help of the site :
- ceramic coated the day I picked it up
- First oil change 3400 miles with royal purple 5w20 and Mobil 1 filter (couldn’t get a royal purple filter locally)
- modified my weather tech mats from the old truck for the wet months
- access cover vanish series roll up, this thing is great I love it and it super low profile
- installed the oem bed extender from the old truck as well
- diesel led backup lights
- lasfit third brake light leds
- k and n drop in filter
- rear seat cover for my good ol dog

Other plans are the brake controller, maybe some other led lights like fogs or interior.. that’s about all I have on the radar right now

Thanks !

Thanks for your reply. I'm a graduate of UB also. I've been to Albany and to NYC but I do not recall being in Hyde Park or Poughkeepsie. Perhaps I need to be like Trump and take a cognitive test. :unsure:
