Spends too much time on here
The alternator functionality and bearing wear (same as alternator) are really my only concern.
My previous truck (Gen 3) went through 3 alternators in 277k miles. I have max care 7 years unlimited mileage though so I'm not really concerned about the parts, just Rams/Dodges

Ouch!
I bet you’re happy it’s almost over!Yeahhhh I’m a DIY kinda guy so when it goes I’ll be tackling it myself I despise dealerships, last time I was in there the guy tried to drive my truck out of the service bay with the parking brake onThe alternator functionality and bearing wear (same as alternator) are really my only concern.

I wonder if the brushes in the eTorque are replaceable. That sure would be nice.

I paid the $1,500 extra dollars to have a hole put in the top of my truck with a panoramic view, I hope it doesn't start leaking. But I appreciate you guys giving a heads up that I need to keep an eye out for that.

My back burner list grows bigger every time I run through some of the forums and see all the great ideas going on here. So far I've only made a few mods, but that list is screaming for attention!
Good advice. It's definitely in a bad spot right behind the tire, but at least we don't get salt here in Louisiana.

Well this past 3 weeks, I blacked out my 21 Bighorn. Swapped wheels, Lug nuts, bumpers, grille and upper applique from chrome to black. Finally the Ram I wanted when I bought this one. Also, G2 painted the calipers in red, installed the RC rear wheel well liners and mud flaps. Looking sexy, at least thats what my wife told me. I think she was talking about the truck though. Lol

Is the upper applique matte black?
Do you have the part number for it?

It hasn’t been bad at all really. The company I work for pays me a handsome allowance every month that covers my payment, insurance, maintenance and I get a fuel card AND I own the truck.Ouch!
Basically, they bought the truck for me in just over 3 years.
It’ll be nice to get the extra $1124 a month in my jeans though for sure!

Yeah, that's a nice setup. I bought my truck, but deducted the full amount off my taxes last year as a business expense for my biz. Since it's technically a "work vehicle", I deduct my insurance, maintenance, and gas as business expenses. As long as I can justify it, I also deduct my mods, like the Diamondback Cover (since it is security for my survey equipment) and Ravelco.

Not a big fan of black trucks, your's looks damn nice. I can't make out what the stripe is on the bed, but not a fan. Kinda takes away from the rest of the truck in my opinion.

Why?

Why not every other ram is grey, save the paint and enjoy a unique color for a few years.
