I'm coming from a Jeep GC that I loved and was only slightly modified (leveled, roof rack and tires). She had 160k on her and it was time for an update.
I purchased the Ram Laramie 1500 before the holidays and have since added the bilsteins to level it, lineX'd the bed, added side steps so the better half can get in and out, tow hooks on the front, weather tech floor liners and a rear seat cover to protect it from the pup. (and grandkids) and just recently bought her some new shoes.
I think I'm done for a while. I would like to get a shell at some point in the future, but that will be a ways down the road.
She's ready for some adventures.....

nice looking truck, are those the RB20 steps?
 
Yeah they looked like the RB20 steps, I found some steps for my silverado from tyger also but just been scared to purchase. The ones I have been looking at are from westin which are the outlaw steps. Hopefully I see your rig at the next meet on the 7th
 
Nice! I love my Snug Shell, it's my third one. When you get your shell think about getting it with side windows that open. It makes easier to get to stuff in the front of the shell.

It was a brand I had never heard of for sure, but I figured for the price, it was worth the risk. So far, I've been really happy with them....

I'm stoked with the new Dodge ram Styling. They were the first to make major front sheet metal changes. Everything got a bit too biggish but now they really have hit the nail on the head.
 
Looks great, I just got back from LineX
Step 1 was to dump the drop in bed liner so I can install the Decked Draws over the New Years weekend.

Looks super !
It was step one; now I will be LineX:
Prinsu Rack
Bumpers
Side Steps
Fender Flares
Hood Protector

This spring I will break out the East Woods Rust Encapsulator coating for the Diffs, and Control Arms that are show some spotted. I'll take a page out of Jason Lewis from Auto Edits on some cleanup.

I'm going with the LineX coverage above since everything here on the east coast rusts. I like the lifetime warranty coverage.

More to come..

Happy New Year!
