Here's my 22 Ram Bighorn. Has eTorque Hemi, level 2 option group. Only thing I wanted and could not get was the LED light package due to supply problems. I since dropped some LED bulbs in. Some say they wouldn't work well in the reflector housing but they're good with a nice cutoff.

Nice truck. Were the fallback lights halogen or HID?

We retrofitted our 2015 Outback's projector halogens with LEDs and they ended up fine, with a good cutoff. The DRL/high beams, on the other hand, were a bit more... antisocial. I wish the LEDs were dimmer with lower current.

I have DRLs off. I swapped both the high and low beams.

Nice truck. Have you gotten "HEMI" tattooed on your knuckles yet?

Just about every RAM is see is some shade of grey, but it looks nice.

I'm glad I got a nice blue one :praise:

Most of the Rams I see are "all black".  Well at least the ones that I really notice.

If you want to drop some big bucks, you can get all sorts of nice full headlight assemblies for it.

The aftermarket for the big trucks are wild.

All black isn't as popular here anymore. I think the latest cool thing is a big lifted white GMC 2500 AT4 with black wheels.

Or anything from this dealership for truck bros

Was going to go this route but rather spend money on my mountain bikes.

Oops that's not the right dealership.

This is the dealership I was thinking of: https://www.idriveutah.com/searchused.aspx
They put a lift kit and rims on every truck and jack up the price. They have 14 Broncos right now, ranging from $60k to $125k :wtf:

I've been very happy so far. Had a 2017 V6 before. This one has the higher gear so it gets decent mileage too.

I remember you had a Sequoia. The Ram is probably better. My Tundra gets like 12 MPG.

Yeah the Sequoia was not good on gas. My Ram is always 18+.
