What are your top five upgrades?

1. Tonneau cover
2. Ceramic tint
3. Clazzio leather interior
4. Husky mud flaps

Have exhaust on order and will some day get the Hellwig sway bar so they may find their way onto the list.
 
Top Six Now:

1. Borla Attak
2. Mopar Cold Air Intake (expensive but love the look)
3. Rambar and Mopar 5" lights
4. Falcon Shock - 2.25" SPORT TOW/HAUL Kit
5. Harmon Customs - RAM led backlit insert
6. Mopar LED cargo light kit

Already done:
1. Line-x
2. Tonneau
3. RC Running boards
 
Something interesting I noticed about this thread is that you can kind of get a feel for how people use their trucks by their top 5 upgrades :)
 
Adding one more to my earlier 5:
Disconnecting the POS Harman Kardon subwoofer.
 
Defiantly driven by preference and what your goals/role of the truck are. For me I have a 2021 Limited that's essentially the family hauler for sports and around town.

#1 Tint
#2 Tonneau Cover
#3 Suspension + Tires/Rims (To each his/her own here...level, lift, lower)
#4 Radar detector...a good one.
#5 AlfaOBD so you can enable more mods.
 
Diamond Back Cover
Husky Floor Liners
Husky Mud Flaps
PPF w/ceramic Coating
LIft wheels and tires (really that should count as 1)
 
I really want to add the RAM Cold Air Intake mostly for the extra space to add a second battery.... but it looking like I MIGHT have to buy a second car.... Good Lord... everything around my place seems to be breaking all at once!
 
Uniden R-3 radar detector.
Viofo A123 duo dash cam.
Ceramic tint for front.
Window vent shades.
DIY truck-bed toolbox.

That pretty much is the list of daily must haves that I would repeat right away. Would possibly upgrade to Uniden R-7.

Honorable.

Under bumper LED reverse lights.
Custom jumper cables.
RAM mounts phone mount.
 
8 months in to owning this one, I've settled on my list:

1) Muffler upgrade!
2) Good wheels and taller tires
3) External reverse lights (this would be number two, but they don't give me the same joy looking out my window as my wheels and tires do :D)
4) Wheel to wheel running boards (that extra foot or so in front of the rear wheel is invaluable)
5) Remote start (so easy to add I wish had done it sooner)

Honorable mention to Tazer, smoked taillights (base factory lenses are hideous!), and a CD player
Have to add a biggie to my list, just not sure yet which of the top 5 I would replace:
* Pulsar! Throttle lag gone, MDS always off, and runs stronger than ever! I can only imagine how much the guys with custom tunes are enjoying their Hemis!
 
1) chrome tow hooks ✅
2) spray in liner ✅
3)roll back cover ✅
4) purchase and add ram box cargo divider and tailgate extender. Found a new one on eBay for $325 and also purchased the handle grommet kit to allow for the extender to work. ✅
5) mud flaps-still deciding was going with husky but saw different mopar set that are more heavy rubber and flexible part 82216215AA and 82216218AA. Runs about 125 with shipping. Lots of farming around here in rural eastern NC. Roads are muddy and I hate getting all that on the sides of my truck.

Honorable mention
1) rear wheel well liners
2) protective skid plates for 4wd

as you can probably guess, I use my truck as more of a truck. Since purchase in nov, I have carried 5 full loads of fireword, towed my boat for service from the ramp(boatis on a lift at my house) hauled mulch, plus so many trips for lumber I have lost count.
 
1. Spray in Liner
2. Hellwig Swaybar
3. Window Tint
4. Swap out stock tires
5. Tonneau Cover (BakFlip MX4)

There are others if my truck didn't come ordered with it already.
 
1) Tint
2) Bed Cover
3) Bilstein 5100's
4) DeChrome (still working on this one, but did do the mirror caps)
5) Normally Borla / MagnaFlow exhaust, but I'm towing so this one hasn't happened for this truck. ...yet

*I did get the Hellwig rear swaybar on the middle setting. Didn't really seem to make much of a difference, so I probably would not do it again. ..and it also seems to grunt / squeak, which I have read is a common issue that you have to keep regreasing it everytime it gets wet(?).. and it does not come with Zerk fittings, so greasing requires removing the bushings (4 bolts/nuts) to accomplish. Hellwig, either make a graphite impregnated bushing or a zerk fitting on your setup.. poor design IMHO.
 
1) ceramic tint
2) xpel
3) line x
4) amp steps
5) better then factory quality tires

It really depends on your truck. People have some good lists here, but I bought Limited and did not need to add things I would have on my list like bed liner or steps. So my list is:

1. Tonneau cover
2. Bigger E-rated A/T tires (for looks, handling improvements, and for towing)...plus the lift/level kit really should be part of it
3. Throttle controller
4. Tazer DT
5. Front window tint

Honorable mentions:
1. Bedrug / bed mat
2. Hellwig swaybar
3. Tail light bar / reverse lights
 
1. WD 779 Badland wheels
2. Borla S-Type cat back
3. Corsa cold air intake
4. Pedal Commander
5. Hellwig sway bar (next on my list)
 
1-Borla ATAK
2-Banks Pedal Monster
3-Hellwig Swaybar
4-K&N Intake
5-Tonneau Cover
