What did you do to your Ram today???

I will investigate 😁 Thank you
you welcome.
if you want my old ones lmk LOL i kept them just in case I decide to lose the weight but i don't really see that happening :ROFLMAO:
i think they're still good, but with cosmetic imperfections for sure.
 
Looks like I'll be heading to Wally World later this morning to swap out my battery.
OE battery lasted 18 months.
Walmart H8 AGM lasted 40 months.

Edited for bad math before coffee.
Walmart battery failed the load test, so I got a $25 warranty credit towards the new purchase.
I can't believe how strong the new battery is vs the old one. It's like how tires get loud gradually and you don't realize it until you get a fresh set installed.

We are going to see how well Cerakote holds up. I don't expect miracles do to the location but it'll interesting. I did them all.
Should do pretty well. I put Cquartz from CarPro on mine 6 years ago and it still beads but my truck is not a daily driver either. Definitely makes the liners easier to clean.

These just arrived!!! Need sway bar links and possibly rear coil suggestions 🤪
I couldn't believe how heavy these are! wOw
CORE4X4 sway bar links. Bilstein, Eibach, ICON and forget who else makes rear coils. 1-1.5" Clayton makes Gladiator coils that fit the RAM as well.
 
I have zero creativity and artsy ability, but I can appreciate it.
I'm still using your truck as a background still. It maybe changed up in the future 🤪
wow i am honored!

edit: i really am no idea what i'm doing most of the time honestly. Just something I try and keep trying until I get to a result that looks okay. Point i'm making is, just DO it. The DOING part is the hardest part because it does not guarantee satisfactory results until you put the time in to trial and error.

about the background photos: you don't need to have $7k in photography gears to take good pictures. Composition is key and that can be done with any camera. When I shot that truck picture above, I already planned that I was gonna use that angle for the calendar, so I composed it that way with that big blank space on the right.
You can have a well-composed picture with bad lighting or bad color and you will still be able to save it and get good results, but if you have a picture with good color and lighting but bad composition, nothing can save it unless you get AI involved.
How do you get good composition? Well, good thing we live in a digitalized world and it costs $0 to shoot photos. Just press the shutter. It's like shooting: you can turn anyone into a decent shooter with ample trigger time. Same thing with photos, just keep shooting to get the composition right and then all the other things can be learned later (long exposure, panning shots for speed, etc). Then that's when gears come, at the end. Good body with good lens will help (ie, that blue bird shot or that space compression shot with Teton Mountain)

So, just keep clicking. I really look forward to the day when you change it up with your truck, because that means you master a new skill and produce a result that you are happy with!

It's not that big of deal. I couldn't have been the only one that has used it. Good looking truck 😁
I like the blue and the rims really look good. I would have never thought of doing that. Its impressive 🤪
look up "color theory" when you have time hahaha
that is a scientific explanation of why certain color combos look good and may be helpful to you!
