Took other piggy to OCMD bike week. 5hrs and averaged 17.8 mpg. Doesn’t squat too bad. But it will with the second bike.

And the readyramp is one amazing invention

The point of the bed extender is you can load all your gear and bags around the bike/bikes, and not worry about it flying out the back of your bed. My dogs, and luggage go in the back seat, all the bike gear and what not go in the bed.

The fact it’s a ramp is a big bonus.

For less than $200 it’s a good deal.

But you do have a nice white ktm

I think that's a husky? could be wrong though. either way, I agree. the bed extender is a nice piece to fill the bed of the truck. i'll either have two groms in there, my ducati diavel, or maybe one grom and the diavel, plug a bunch of gear that I don't want in the cab. I like the extender. I do have the ram bed divider/extender but I'd rather not store the ramp in the bed as well.

It's a Husky but it's built by KTM so basically it's a white KTM.

I get that about the bed extender, but I've never had any worries about my stuff flying out. With 2 bikes in the back, the bikes prevent anything from sliding aft. The Readyramp is a better bed extender than it is a ramp. It's small hooks that rest on the tailgate easily slide off when loading/unloading your bike.

A riding buddy of mine had one so I got to use it every other time we rode for a couple of years, so I got some good experience with it. Just another opinion... that's all.

Replaced 3rd brake like with new updated number with top gasket. Set up an appointment for cracked rear window frame, driver seat tearing, steering wheel tearing.

Installed the Mopar Hood Deflector today and pleased with how it came out.

I really like the MOPAR Deflector. I had the weathertech but it was poorly molded and chewed up my grill a little bit. I have a white ram with the midnight package so I don't think the satin black will look good with a gloss grill. I like your chrome combination.

Can I see a side shot with those wheels? I'm back and forth on wheels and I think I settled on those. Any rubbing. Looks like you have a stock setup tire still.
Thanks — no rubbing, and yeah, these are the stock Wildpeaks. Wheels have a +1 offset so they poke out a little more than factory and sit flush with the factory fender flares. I got them from WheelsAsap and you can negotiate with them. I think I paid $1,577 and they included a spline lug set and lifetime protection package.

FWIW, I think the matte black deflector would look really good on your truck even with the gloss below it.

There’s a few pictures out there of the matte deflector on a midnight package. I’ve seen it on a white truck and it looked awesome. Here’s a couple examples on a black truck.

Was planning on installing the side steps I ordered only to find out there are no factory mounting studs on the truck. Not exactly sure what to do at this point. Anyone have any suggestions?

If you have a Classic I don't think they have factory bolts. You would need to order sidesteps made for a 4th gen. If you have a 5th gen, I'm not sure why there wouldn't be factory bolts.

Judging from their avatar photo, looks like a classic to me.
