What did you do to your Ram today???

Got the bedrug XLT installed last night - lost about 2 gallons in sweat equity from the heat/humidity but happy to have it done!

The legroom is adequate for now...my youngest is 8 and he's tall but for right now, it's OK. Most family trips are going to be in the Ram where's there's plenty of space. I'd say there's probably more space back there then in a Mustang for sure. If you do trade, just buy an R/T or Scat. While the GT still has 300hp and fun to drive I do miss the V8 but at the time I couldn't find an R/T and just one Scat on the lot which I didn't wanna pay that much.
Thanks for the review. I sold my mustang yesterday, so now I'm shopping again ha. My kids are 5 and 9 and like you, we have other vehicles that are used most of the time. My family is all quite short though, height won't likely be too much of an issue. I'm 5'8" and the Mrs. is 5'0", so the kids are pretty much screwed ha. I'm just torn between the challenger and the charger. I like the 4 doors, but I'm afraid I'll miss my manual trans too much. Either way, it will be at least a scat, hopefully. Dealer stock is extremely scarce around these parts though. Might take a bit to find what I want. Thanks again!

Poor kids , haha. I like the Challengers too but no way my wife would've went that way since it's only a two door and leg room in the back is nonexistent compared to the Charger. I did tell my wife though in a few years we'll be trading to a R/T at the minimum. Good luck with the search!
 
Add Hemifever tuning to my mods list now. Ordered just the PCM tune yesterday morning then got an email from Sean recommending the transmission tune as well so I added that. From original order to my email ready to install in less than 2 days. Only driven once for 5 miles but I’m pleased and truck is very responsive.
 
Installed a UPR Billet Oil Catch Can Z Mount. I trimmed the hoses to fit better. Looks pretty cool. We'll see how it works out.


Also put in an SPE-HPR9401 Spectre Performance drop in air filter (no pictures). It was $25.79 on Amazon, so, what the heck. Went ahead and picked up a FRAM Fresh Breeze Cabin Air Filter, too. It was $17.14

Well let’s see I leveled her out with Bilsteins all the way around. Added the caliper covers and added the Nitto Grapplers.

Added my Weathertech window visors today! Took about 20 minutes to do front an back! I did need to sit down and watch the Weathertech video on the rear windows just to make sure I was putting in the clips right and the back left didn't seem to want to fit exactly flush inside to the top. We'll see in a day or two if it's seated well and permanent!

Definitely post back! I’m interested in some in channel visors. The only two that seems to check all my boxes, are the weather tech and the Mopar ones.

Damn logging trucks! Heard the stone hit but didn’t see anything for about 1/2 hour. Then she ran like a MF’r.View attachment 96338

Had the exact same thing happen, waiting on factory glass but starting to wonder if the Safelite glass is better based on how a chip turns to a crack and runs over the next few days

I would stick with the factory glass....Safelite glass isn't the same quality.
 
Hey, I made that drive back from Lake Charles about a month ago !! But I was a weenie and stopped in Mobile for the night.
I made a weekend trip out of it. I left Friday morning and spent a night in New Orleans. Pick her up Saturday morning and drove to Atlanta to stay the night. Then, drove home Sunday morning.
 
I upgraded to a Borla Atak Cat Back exhaust today. Sounds much better than stock.

I just installed the Borla Atak on my 2021 Laramie, also! Sounds amazing when slamming the pedal to the floor. I'm actually gonna be installing the borla resonator soon to tame the aggressiveness going through neighborhoods. I'll post an update in case anyone is interested.
