Finally took my rear wheels off and put the last screw in my rear mudflaps. Also got a full-size 20x10 wheel to use as my spare. Test fitted my 295/60R20s under the truck and it fits! Now just need some rubber for it and I’ll be set!

After leveling/tires, I over compensated the headlight adjustment and lighting was poor. Did another adjustment now that it’s getting darker earlier. These headlights really do a great job illuminating the road

Just curious, what was it about the Falken tires you did not like? That's the tire I am leaning towards.
Check out the Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLTs. Not a better tire on the market right now IMHO. Ran them on my Tundra before trading it on the Ram. Duratracs on the Rebel aren't even close.

Installed my new power retraxpro bedcover over my BlueOx Super Ride hitch. Put together Vixen 4 Horn trumpet train Horn, next is the install. Sounds great!! Also need to install the 8 pod Color LED lighting and install the Tazer device To activate auto folding mirrors, flashing light features and many more cool features. Just need time and more daylight.

Not tall or wide enough. Nothing bad about it - just wanted a tire to fill out the wheel well more.

Is there any extra room for a bigger spare or does the 295/60 max out the space?

Added (4) 70lb sand tubes to the bed over the rear axle in preparation for winter. The truck feels SO much better with some weight back there. I'll likely run this all year now.

If anyone is interested in those train air horns discussed above, check your local laws first. I do know in some areas they are not legal for use on automobiles. They can be so loud, they can actually create an accident versus helping to prevent one. I watched a video on this years ago. Yes, they sound cool and make a TON of noise, but it can also have the opposite effect of what you are trying to do when using your horn under normal conditions.

Most people I know have them in addition to their normal horn, even tying them into their alarm systems.

That's great but two wrongs don't make a right. Not saying that it is not legal where you may live (your location is incomplete in your profile) but I do know there are areas around the US where they are not from other forums I am a member of where folks have posted similar issues. I am only making the statement to ensure that folks check first BEFORE doing this mod...nothing more ;) In the end, everyone can do whatever they want...getting caught is another thing.....

Back from the dealer and some work.
1. Install block heater. Wish I was mechanically inclined and didn't have to pay the labor but, it is what it is. With all I read on the short cord length, I was surprised to see it attached to my tow hook when I picked up the vehicle.
2. Oil Change
3. U-connect intermittent reboot and failure to achieve GPS Lock - Couldn't be duplicated but its documented.
4. Check air ride as had a day where I kept receiving a warning to have the system serviced. NTF.
