Hey all, another FNG here. Ordered a Big Horn Back Country in December, dealer thinks it will arrive next week. My first Ram, have been driving mostly Nissans (had a couple Dodge vans from the 80s). My current Nissan, 03 Frontier, just became too much to deal with and too little of a truck for me.
I'm a carpenter in Columbus, Ohio, but spend a lot of time in Eastern Ohio, in the country. Lots of dirt roads and farm fields so I needed to stay in a 4x4.
A lot of good info in the forums here, hope I can contribute some myself.

Don’t forget the concrete corn field!

Congrats!

My wife grew up in Hilliard, I'm a transplant from California. I was a commercial carpenter for 10 years, then a handyman for another 10. Semi retired the past 5 years to take care of family. There will be pics, even though we have all seen a granite/ black 1500 before, lol.

If you're interested, I have an interior trim job I need to have done sometime...

If you are in no hurry I might be, part of why I say I semi retired, I'm not working, but have no availability to until about May at the earliest.

Jealous, can’t wait to get mine. So from your pics it appears Ram is still putting chrome lugs on the black rims 😫

Just learned that the side steps were dropped from the Back Country package sometime in early January. We received 4 trucks this week and 2 of them had no steps. They were ordered in early January others were ordered in December. Couple of disappointed customers.
