Got a 2019 Ram 1500 Classic Bighorn edition. So far the only thing I've done is throw a Flowmaster 50 on it, and changed the tires.

You like it tho?
What are the plusses and minuses

I love it. It's a comfortable ride, especially for my back, which is the main reason I was looking into a truck/large SUV. I have already had it come in handy with hauling household stuff and moving. Only minus is the gas, but I knew that going in. I don't let it go past half a tank before filling it up. I work from home tho so it's not like I'm doing a lot of commuting anyway. Looking back, it did take some getting used to as far as managing a larger vehicle. On the highway I could wind up doing 85-90 and not even notice it, so I had to be more cognizant of the speedometer. And on the flip side, I had to remember stopping distance; I wasn't driving my Optima anymore, so I had to keep more distance between me and these idiot soccer moms who don't know how to drive.

What about insurance wise?

What about insurance wise?

I didn't have any increase going from the Optima to the Ram. Don't know if it's because of the area or my driving history or what. My bro in law works for Geico as a claims adjuster and he was saying how popular Hellcats are around here, and cats are having their insurance jump considerably.

Power running boards??

Just a FYI, keep them nice and lubed up at the points of articulation, and clean them at the car wash with the high pressure washer.

Currently driving an 18 F-150 Lariat Diesel

Later that year traded that truck in for a 21 F-150 Platinum Hybrid

6" Lift with 35s

Still got it because I have 0% financing

 

[Schadenfreude]

Might pick up a Tundra with the hybrid system with the TRD Pro or the Capstone trim level with the employee discount.

Might have to wait 3+ months for it though.
