Single exhaust like you see on a basic truck

 

[devildodge]

Right. I picked up mine last night. Noticed today that it doesnt have the dual exhaust with black tips. I got a case number from Mopar and going to reach out to my dealer tomorrow

You got the V6 according to your Sig. Even the REBEL V6 does not get dual exhaust.

Think this is something you will find is right

Yep, as @devildodge said and showed, only the Hemi’s and EcoDiesels get the dual exhaust. The V6 gets the standard exhaust...on all trims.

And with the 4x2 you don’t get the raised ride height (or any of the other off-road components). When the whole spring issue first came to light on the gator and black release, there were a couple people who did get Ram to install the taller springs on their 4x2s. I think it was a fluke, and from what I’ve read, Ram is no longer swapping springs on the 4x2s.

Bro you got a v6 with etorque? You getting Prius numbers on your mpgs?

 

[devildodge]

So far we have 19 trucks in the poll of BTS trucks

Gray and tank tied with 5.

I’ve seen two more Gators out on the road by me. One modded one stock, do enjoy the compliments the truck gets or the double takes from Rebels.

Waxed the truck today! Took 3 hours but it needed it.

That sucks because there wasn't any indicators that specified not getting certain items because of engine size or drive, yet the price stays the same. My dealer was shocked when he found out about the 4x4 and the 4x2 list change, hooked me up with a leveling kit and rebate. I'm definitely going to look at getting an upgrade on exhaust at some point. The muffler sticks out like a sore thumb!

Haha, still breaking it in but I'll let you know!. I want more fuel efficiency since I do a lot of highway miles for work

Has anyone tried a using clay bars or Torque ceramic shine?

 

[SCasey89]

@Wookie0323 at least the exhaust is an easy fix. You can probably find yourself an inexpensive used (but in good condition) rear OE bumper with the dual exhaust cutouts, then have a shop fab up a dual exhaust.

wash, iron remover, clay, polish, whatever protection you want

if you clay you will induce micro-marring and polishing after would be suggested( i would only clay if you can feel the contamination, not every vehicle needs to be clayed)
(if you are gonna run it through a tunnel wash the tunnel wash will do more marring anyway , just depends on how you will maintain and clean the truck)
torque? kinda a snake oil item. better than F11 but much better options out there. meguairs hybrid ceramic wax for instance with correct base coat application will give you great results and last. there are a million choices out there for last step protection but if it starts as a facebook/ social media add its usually in-line with f11 which is junk
on my BTS im testing adams graphene spray coating . applied in august and even after new england winter still going strong.

I'm going with a fresh coat of mud. Dirt is a color too.

My detailer did a full paint correction process, followed by clay bar, followed by buffing/smoothing, followed by applying a ceramic coat that is good for 4 years if maintained

Glad you are finally getting it! We'll worth the wait. I smile every time I walk up to it
