What did you do to your Ram today???

[theonlyMcG]

Speaking for myself, and I don't have a mount *yet*, but it just is indicative of the serious inadequacies and lack of function of the 12" screen compared to a phone. And the android play, for me, is a no go due to it dumbing down all the functionality the phone may offer.

I personally like Android Auto but I have been using it since before I got the RAM. I agree that it's dumbed down compared to the phone but it is for a reason. So far I haven't experienced any problems with the 12" screen but I have only had it for a little over a week so far.

I finally installed my Rough Country Pocket Fender Flares. Had them color matched. A note to anyone installing the flares on trucks with the OEM fender flares. You will have a gap behind each wheel on the fender lip because once you remove the factory flares the spat is shorter then trucks without flares. I will be ordering the lager spats.

Makes sense, like I said mostly curious.

i adjusted it.. its almost flush with the dash top now.

Are those headlights factory? They look smoked...

factory.. its the lighting

Got the tonneau cover installed as well as the bedrug. Didn't need the full walls or tailgate since I have the MFT.

Truck looks awesome! Can tell me if you know of any hard roll ups would have workded with your bed configuration? Or which tri-folds as well. I have the rambox and MFT as well. Been hard finding ones that fit.

I believe there is a Mopar Tri-Fold that works. I honestly was looking for the soft roll-up because I like having full use of the rear window if I have to use the full bed. I also wanted a low profile cover and not one that sat on top of the box so the Pro X15 was perfect for what I was looking for. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I got the same tonneau for the same reasons.

Next phase of the evolution complete. I got the wheels powder coated wet black with multi-color metallic flake. Very happy with the results. The Bronze wrap is growing on me but will be experimenting with a light tint vinyl over it next week to try to tone down the brightness a bit and give it a darker color.

Looks fantastic!!! Need black lug nuts to keep from them being the focal point now that everything has color. Really looking sweet. Great show.

Got a new set of Toyo Open Country RT 285/60/R20. No level kit yet. Got it, but haven't installed it yet. No rubbing. They ride is about the same, but a bit louder. Love them so far!

I taped off the 1500 and shot it with plasti dip as a experiment to see how they look.
I think it came out pretty good. Now I don’t have to get the all black ones.

The first guy wanted $800 told me he uses special additives, I laughed and walked away. I got them done for $350 at another place. They did a great job.

Installed the BedRug Impact liner today. Easy to install. Happy with it so far.

Can you take some color up photos of the wheels showing in more light please ?

That’s not bad at all. I was looking to get some paint matched and got quoted $1000. If I can find somewhere closer to $350 I think I’ll get the same flares. Looks really good!

These Threads always seem to be fun and keep us all spending money so chime in and lets get the ball rolling....

Unfortunately, nothing since Ram and the dealerships falsely advertise their trucks.

I'm curious to see what your wheels look like with the fenders. Do you have any down the side shots so i can see the wheels poke? Also what size wheels/offset/tires? Also would like to do the same thing to the 1500 badges you have done haha!

Traded and got some new wheels and tires. A little more shiny then the stock 18 inch ones.
