Soon to be Back Country owner in Ohio

[Ram-a-Kin]

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.

Wait, what??? I ordered mine on 1/25 and the BC package stated it included side steps. How can they remove it from the package and not advise customers prior?

The dealer needs to check it. Everyone assumed it was part of the package. One truck ordered on 12/31 had steps, on ordered on 1/10 did not have steps. The build sheet from the day he ordered it didn't list side steps. Do you have your build sheet? If not the dealer can check that for you.

I just confirmed with sales, they dropped side steps from quad cab models. The crew cab models still get the steps. Sorry if I caused any concerns.

Whew, mine is a crew cab.

After an afternoon/evening getting to know the truck, 2 things stick out that I never saw mentioned in all the YouTube vids I watched and threads I have read in here. There is not an option to make the mirrors fold when you lock the doors, you have to hit the fold button when you get out. Also, the fog light will come on in the direction you steer, or when you turn the turn signal on.

Both are mentioned quite a bit on these forums, but they’re good observations nonetheless.

I saw that the LEDs on the Limited will move when you turn, didn't know it would do anything with the base halogens.

Awesome. I thought they did away with power fold mirrors on the big horn.

On a basic build I am sure they have.

Just hit the lot. Pics from dealer.

Good looking truck!

The fogs as turning lights is a nice easter egg, though my fogs are almost always on so I don't really get to experience that.

TazerDT can enable you to have the auto-fold mirrors (it is what I use), I think there's another programmer or two out there that will also.

I was under the impression that due to the chip shortage, Big Horns are not coming with power folding mirrors.

They are coming with power fold mirrors. We have noticed none are coming with foam cup holders in the door. That's not a chip issue

I will gladly trade foam cup holders for power folding mirrors (I am not even sure what foam cup holders are).

They are foam inserts in the door panels that work as cup holders.

Yeah, I can live without the addad foam, lol.

Grimgreg, does your power folding mirrors have Blind Spot Monitoring on them?

No, I hate that tech. Had it in a rental once and was more of a distraction than an assistance, just annoying. Thank you Ram for making that an option.

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

Great observation. Definitely going to switch to all black as soon as mine gets in!
