What did you do to your Ram today???

Naw, nothing against LSU. Will actually try to follow them some this fall as they just acquired a grad transfer at LB I'm familiar with.
Jabril Cox...Dude is a beast. They needed it there. Upcoming draft will be interesting for them and Burreaux! Divinity, Phillips, Queen and Chaisson are all headed to The League.
 
how are you liking the sideboards? I'm getting a set next week. Did you install yourself ?
I like them a lot. There are others out there that are probably more durable for off-road, but these have a great look and feel solid. Installed them myself, like the OEM because the brackets are already in place for easy install vs some out there where you have to install the brackets separately and line everything up, which would take a lot more time. Have to be careful with the bolts/nuts to not crossthread since the bolts on the truck are coated, got all on without much trouble except one, will have the dealer take a look at it at my first service, probably will need a die taken to it. Got them for $475 from BAM wholesale.
 
Added Husky mud guards and OEM backstep.

How do you like the husky mud guards? I’m real close to buying a set, but it sure seems like they hang down super low. I had a set a very similar mud guards on my wife’s 2018 civic SI. They did a really good job but they were much shorter. I know it’s completely different being a truck versus a car, but I’m just worried that they hang down TOO low.

I like the Husky guards, the fit was very good and easy to install. I did go ahead with the "optional" additional screw on the front guards, which required drilling a hole in the plastic (was easy) because they seemed to flop around too much vs the backs, even with the sticky tape which doesn't really work. Are they too low? Don't know and not sure I would ever notice the difference. Price was right at $57 on Amazon.
 
Cheap and useful addition. I added Bull Ring retractable tie downs to rear bed rails. I’ve had these on all trucks that I’ve owned. I use a a hitching post for my horses. Just had to use a utility knife a trim a small portion of bed caps for secure fit. Very easy to do and handy! Bought from Amazon- see price and item # in pictures if interested.

First thing I bought. Love those things
 
just ordered the CPLAY2air wireless CarPlay adapter - taking your word for it. Funny the manufacturer is not aware it works? Got the $40 off with "LOYALTY".
funny yet that the credit card is charged in China, and its shipped from Shenzhen. Not sure I'm going like supporting the Wuhan Flu inventors with this. Of course I find that out all after the fact. Then my paranoid self thinks that some chinese firm has access to pull data off my phone. Can't trust 'em.

they list Jeep and UConnect, so hopefully there was enough similarity between Jeep and Ram systems.

I am sure ur cell phone already has parts made in china...
 
I haven’t got my truck yet so no way to go look. These pop-up tiedowns only fit in the rear stake pockets? So no point in buying four of them?
 
Ordered a cover craft sunscreen in anticipation of summer. Too bad it’s estimated ship date is May 29th.
 
Hauled away an old mattress and had an opportunity to use the bed extender for the first time. Super helpful and hopefully FCA figures out a way to bring this feature back on future trucks.
