If you are doing a 1-year lease you should be fine. if it's 3 years you'll look like swiss cheese with all the rust holes

That's a rude thing to say to someone the day they signed the paperwork on their new purchase. Who do you think you are? Gino from Blue Line shitting on peoples brand new purchases?

1. He's still deciding

2. It's the off-season on the forum, so anything goes!

Common courtesy is something that befuddles you?

5 year factory warranty on all body panels for Rams.  No one knows that that’s why they look like “swiss cheese”. I’m getting a new front left fender put on my 2016 Ram Thursday.

My next door neighbor has a Dodge Ram . No idea what year it is . His back fenders are all rusted out . He said it's a common problem with the Rams that never got fixed . He has been searching for a replacement truck bed for a couple years with no luck . Other than that , he loves his Dodge Ram .

Poor design on the Rams. Has been a problem for years. That is why you see a ton of them on the road with front and rear 1/4 panels rusted out. It is to bad since they are under warranty for 5 years. Maybe some day they do some redesign to help with the problem

The OP is not selling a truck ,this is just a normal thread open to discussion.

Good luck with the Ram. The lease is up on my 19' Silverado in October. I have never owned anything but Chevys but I may look at the Ram this time. They are nice looking trucks. Although if I can get the 6.2, i may go that direction. 

[Five Seasons]

family of 5 plus a dog and I had to go from double to crew and was worried about the 5.5' box but in 3 years there hasn't been a time I really needed the 6.5 bed. I know I can get a longer box in the crew but it's rare to find one and those trucks are long lol

Nice truck. I heard the Ram has a great ride. Nice that you got the larger bed. My chevy order is going on 9 months now. Its crazy but it will all work. My buddy is getting me the extended warrantee for free with some other extras. good luck with it.

I was reading last week that they're shipping even some of the higher trims without heated seats and steering wheels because of the chip shortage. Also that the nicer headunits weren't available and that the temp gauge for the t-stat's were no longer going to be digital. They're giving like $300 off the sticker for this, which is absolute garbage when you consider they're $60k trucks.

The heated steering wheel is easily one of my favorite new features and a deal breaker for me, I'm pretty sure I'm going to buy out my lease that's up in September unless I can get a 22 with all the standard features.

Not just the light! :  O

You need to open a secret hatch under the wheel well and shove your hand up in there and unlock a latch, then with the hood up you need to unhook the quick clips on the cover over the front of the engine compartment/radiator/etc, and then remove the grill, then several bolts including a couple way down deep in there with a long socket extension in order to pull the whole light assembly out.

Thank goodness for Youtube or I would have been paying someone to do it.

Went smooth enough, but took me about 45 minutes from start to finish.   

good thing most new autos are coming with HIDs or LEDs that should last longer than the engine itself. My BIL had a VW that required the whole front bumper be removed to change a bulb. wtf? lol.

Two options were canceled at the plant on my truck. Bed protection sprat package and the safety package.
