Greetings! My name is Ben and I recently just ordered my first truck of any kind: A 2022 1500 Laramie G/T

A bit about me and what I'm currently driving:
I'm 35 yrs old and live in Northern Indiana. I own and operate an auto detailing business that I've been running full time for over 2 years now, but started back in 2014. I wanted to get a truck for the business and also take advantage of the huge tax write off so pulled the trigger on ordering one. :cool:

This will be quite the different vehicle for me! I've never owned a truck before and I'm coming from a 2013 VW GTI with all sorts of goodies on it. I've always been sort of a performance nut so have done lots of modifications to the GTI and it's been a great daily driver and fun car all in one. I'll still be holding onto it once I get the truck and it'll primarily become my track vehicle.

It was time to add a truck to the lineup though as I can now see all the benefits of having a vehicle that can tow, haul materials from the hardware store, yet still be luxurious and fun to daily drive.

My truck is pretty much a loaded Laramie G/T in bright white with the Night Edition package. I opted for all the extras like power running boards, pano-roof, Equipment Level B, 12" screen, etc. I'm also looking forward to having a great sounding exhaust right out of the gate with the G/T package!

I ordered it a couple weeks ago and got my VIN number right away so fingers crossed it will arrive by the end of the year!

Here's a pick of a '21 build as close to my specs as possible:

Welcome. If you'd like to be added to the 2022 tracking chart, please let me know the last 6 digits of your VIN (along with your official order date).
