What did you do to your Ram today???

Do you have any side shots of your truck? I'm having 15% installed on my truck, so I'm looking for pics before the install. I know the 30% is supposed to match the tint on the back windows, but I've been told that it looks lighter due to the light that comes in through the windshield and/or panoramic sunroof.
The sun is right behind me in the driver side shot so I just took them from both sides. Even with the sun coming through it looks like a much closer match than from the factory

Exactly what I was looking for.... thanks!
 
Decided to take a chance on this console piece. I'm happy with it and glad I listened to the reviews and upgraded the double sided tape beforehand. Used a book and some Monster to hold it down for a while :)

We currently offer a few 5th gen ram products and are looking to expand our offerings to the Ram community. Let us know what is in need fabrication wise and we will do our best to offer it as soon as we can.
You could offer up that sweet a$$ step side to the community! Put up some pics man. I wish that style could come back.
 
I turned it in for an alignment because my steering wheel has been crooked since new. They said the alignment was good. Also had them do a tire rotation. I marked the inside of the rims with different colored paint pens to make sure they did it according to the print out I provided from the owners manual…they did not.

Made the plunge on the AC hack. Even having a 2021, and full ceramic tint on ALL windows, the ac was blowing full speed for more than 40 minutes just to get down to 72 degrees.
Initial readings show a 10 degree drop with the valve partially open.

Your post about poor AC performance had me worried, especially since you have a 2021. As you know, it's been stupid hot in Idaho for a month and I'm happy to report that my AC has been awesome. I can't run it on Max for more than a few minutes before it freezes me out. Yesterday I dropped my wife at an eye doctor appointment and I sat in my truck for about 45 minutes with the air running on a 96 degree day in the normal AC mode, fan on 5 and I was perfectly comfortable and that's without tinted windows.
 
Changed out my cloth seats for Katzkin leather today. $1,500 installed. Had neoprene seat covers and my back would be soaked every time I drove anywhere. View attachment 99301View attachment 99302View attachment 99303
they look great! I plan on doing the same thing soon. My local shop's price is 1800 installed and they are not very local. It looks like there are only 2 installers in the north half of MN which sucks, but worth it. What color combo is that? It looks like I have the same interior as you stock. I wanted to do a saddle brown face but I thought it might look weird with the black/grey theme of the interior. Also, did it come with the small panels for the door?
 
Changed out the hubcap and lugnuts while I changed the oil and rotated the tires yesterday.

Added these stickers. But not sure if I like it. Kinda like the all black better. Ignore the bugs. That’s from only two nights rides around town.

Stickers or no stickers?

I looked on their website at a couple different colors and even made a custom one. But ended up calling them to see what the price difference would be. The Lt. Grey with black sides is considered OEM and because of that said it would be a few hundred cheaper.

My vote would be sticker.

If you could find a similar color scheme to put on the back or the side it would tie it in (just a thought).

If you prefer the black look, those do come in matte black.

Installed the Toyo MT 37x12.50r20s with Bilstein 5100s on setting 5 with my BDS 4” lift! I’m still going to lift the rear 1.25” once the parts come in. I freakin love the look, it looks sooo much better than the 4” with 35s in my opinion! This truck looks like it was made for 37s.

I like the vinyl lettering much better personally!

Very nice. The “long beds” look better at 4”+. Mine is leveled out and if this trx thing doesn’t work out im going your route. Bigger lift.

Getting my first oil change and tire rotation.
Supposed to be a two hour wait. 🤯

Interestingly enough, they do plug into your OBD port and display info from your vehicle's computer over to a digital tablet. The very first screen shows the number of flashes on the computer. I don't know if all dealers do this for express lane work, but it's something to keep in mind for anyone doing anything to the computer.
