I just picked up this 16 Ram 2500 Tradesman with the 5.7. This will be a super slow build and I may end up asking more questions than doing actual work but we’ll see.

First on my list is just a good base line. I am 90% sure this was a wide load escort truck the front tow hooks are missing and there are a couple of switches to nothing that I have already removed along with some home made 2x4 seat spacers. It was serviced at the dealer I bought it from and all ofthe service records are up to date so I’m not overly concerned there.

Good luck man! The wife and I will be picking up a Power Wagon next year. I would pull the trigger today but we are closing on our house in a month. =/

First trip down for the new truck. 20 ish hours to the Red River Gorge to run the Rugged Red Half Marathon. It did pretty good over all plenty of room for 2 adults and 3 kids. The wife did complain about the ride a little bit but overall we were happy with it for road tripping. Now I need to find a trip with a little less road.
