5.7L Long bed crew cab w/ sport package (mostly just to get the black interior). My second first truck... had an ‘18 Tacoma for about 6 months, but just too small a truck for a big guy and had a very weak motor. This thing solves both of those problems :cool:.

-Readylift 2” Level (UCA + Strut extensions)
-BFG KO2 35x12.5R18
-Method NV 18x9 -12 offset (4.5” backspace)

I ordered a CC with the 6'4" bed. It will be 13" longer than my 2017 QC 6'4" truck. Fingers crossed it won't be too big for parking garages, tricky driveways, and getting my boat in my very tight / tricky neighborhood boat launch.

What are your impressions of the CC with 6'4" truck? Hows the turning radius in tight spots?

Love the 6'4" bed!
Upon seeing them up close, I also should have opted for the longer bed lol.

So far so good with the 6’-4” bed + CC. Live in the city so everything’s tight and so far not regretting going long bed. The big adjustment was coming from the super tight radius on the Tacoma to literally any full size truck. Test drove an F150 Screw cab short box and the radius honestly felt worse, if anything(?).

Have avoided entering a proper parking garage so far. Figure I’ll work up to it :ROFLMAO:

Your truck looks great. I have a Bighorn Off Road on order. I have been over anxious to get started on it. I really wanted 18 inch wheels and I ordered some Method 18 x9 -12 Double Standard wheels. I have been waiting on tires and lift/leveling kit.

I have been searching the internet for pictures of a 2019 with this wheels and tires set up with no luck......until now. It is great to see your truck with the setup it has. I definitely like it.

Now, if my truck would just get here.

You’re gonna be so stoked. Plus, with all this sidewall on 18s I can parallel park as sloppy as I want and the rims don’t show a scratch.

Is your interior actually black or is it closer to gray? All the Bighorn sports I’ve seen so far say black interior on the window sticker but really are gray. I have a Dart with a black interior that’s jet black. It’s git me worried as I too wanted a black interior.

I guess really dark gray? I just didn’t want a light interior and this was the darkest I could afford lol

I keep coming back to this thread... Kind of wish I'd of ordered silver.

Had a black truck before this and the dirt issue pushed me toward something lighter for my “do-over” truck. Was between white, granite, and silver. Had the sales guy park all 3 out front of the table we were haggling at pretty much just to get him out of my hair long enough to do some math. Was settled on granite before I saw them all side by side. Silver was definitely my choice... glad I asked to see ‘em side by side.

On another note, I saw a Porsche yesterday with the most delicious unsparkly matte gray. THAT would be a perfect addition to RAM’s choices

I also was down to white, silver, granite. Our current truck is granite and it shows wear and dirt a little too much for my liking. My wife vetoed silver for some reason I still can't comprehend. So a white CC with 6'4" bed and off-road package is what we ordered. It should be here in December. And one of the first things to be down will be the RL 2" level with UCA's. Wheel / Tire combo TBD. It's hard making that commitment.

Agreed on the light flat gray. I like the light flat gray they are doing on the Charger and Challengers nowdays. I wish they offered it for the Ram.

Btw your white truck will be SICK. My buddy did his 4th gen with bronze method nv’s on 35s and that got me fired up to trade in my tacoma

Did you have to massage your front fender liners to clear your tires? I went with 35-12.50 -18 Ridge Grapplers and get them mounted Thursday. I have the same size and brand of wheels as yours. Just wondering if I should massage the front fender liners before I go have my tires mounted. I would rather not mess with them if I don’t have to.

Yes. Push them back as far as you can... it’s kind of tough as the plastic is thicker so it’s slow to heat up and get plyable
