Bighorn lv1.

Same way I would built it lol.
Replacing my blue streak pearl 18 express quad cab so a nice step up!
 
Color is what got me with the black accents I had to have it lol. I wasn't even looking a week ago

That's pretty much how I was with mine. Put eyes on it and knew I wanted it. The grey is pretty sweet! I'm ready to see the white ones.
 
Questions for the group. I special ordered my Built To Serve truck and it was delivered today. :)

Question 1: I thought my new truck would sit slightly higher than my previously 2019 4X4 Rebel because of the lift that it comes with as part of the package. However, it actually feels like it sits lower than my previous truck. Can someone provide me feedback on this and if this is correct, what would you recommend to get the new truck to sit higher? (Bigger wheels or a lift kit etc)

Question 2: There is no lockable center storage in my truck. I thought all BTS had this feature. Instead I have a bench seat that folds up to create a center console. Is this a manufacturers oversight or did I have to order that?

Thanks,

Ray

You need the bucket seats for the lock box. I don’t know where they put one on a bench. But you can lock the rear floor storage with a tuffy

1) I believe the Built to Serves come with the Off-Road Group built into the package. At least all of the main components are, so I'd imagine the Off-Road Group springs do as well (thus the increased ride height. The Rebels have taller tires I believe?

2) The lockable storage is only available with the front bucket seats w/ full console, not the 40/20/40 bench seating.
 
Depends on how much higher you want this to be then your 2019 was. You can add a lift, spacers, springs and or new shocks. What it comes down to is how will the truck be used and how much you want to spend to achieve that feeling. :)
 
Can you build a "Built To Serve" edition online? Or only with a dealer?
 
The only thing I do not really like on these trucks are the black bumpers. Black bumpers are associated with the cheaper trucks like the tradesman. The Rebel has the black bumpers also but that looks a little better with the Rebel grill I guess.

It is a Tradesman front end. Same grill insert and everything. I don't mind it. I actually like the grill better than the regular Big Horn and Laramie grills.

I would like it slightly hire than my stock 2019 Ram Rebel. I am not sure if it was the stock tires that made it sit higher because my new truck has more of a street tire and the rebel had offroad.

thanks for the update. I wasn't aware. I thought it was in all the "built to serve". :(

I called tuffy and lock'er down to compare. I really want it be in the center console for faster access. Lock'er down said they will consider manufacturing one. So, it seems like it is currently not an option. :(
 
The Rebel comes with 33s and ours is a 32.

I'm also skeptical that we have the true ORP. It says we do but I just measured from the center of the wheel to my fender and got 22".

This is from Readylift
