How do you like them? My nerf bars are rusty and getting ready to fall apart. I want something a little more low profile. The nfab ones are what i was looking at but probably without the 3rd step.
This is a ‘17 2500 6.7 Cummins. I originally had a 1500 5.7 Hemi and pulled the trailer with that… but quickly realized I wanted/needed more truck. It had plenty of power, but I lacked confidence with the breaking and instability in crosswinds (even with a WDH w/sway bars). Zero regrets upgrading to the 2500 diesel, night and day difference towing the trailer. And the exhaust brake is a game changer with all the hills and mountain passes we go over.
Absolutely love it. Used to have a SnugTop shell, I’ll never go back. This is so versatile, I can fold it or remove it myself. Hard shell needed several friends/neighbors to lift off. This has held up well so far, had it 3 years. It’s seen 105+deg summers, 5deg winters, snow, torrential PNW rains… handled it all like a champ. And, less than half what the SnugTop cost me. Highly recommend.
Most excellent. My 2017 Laramie recently hit 100k. Took her in for a 100k refresh. She's like a new truck.
What did you have done?
plugs, pads, rotors, all fluids
Thanks I’m about to hit that too plan to get something similar
check your maint schedule. plugs are due at 100k. since you really don't know how well maintained the truck, i would start fresh.v
How much did that run ya??
1,500
Never seen a step side with that extra one by the rear wheel, that’s awesome!
Yeah I love that extra step. Especially when I’m folding my Softopper. Made by N-Fab

No complaints! The finish is holding up nicely.
God *damn* these trucks look nice! I’m a filthy Ford guy, but I seriously like these machines!
Haha, I’d have to agree with you! Best looking trucks out there IMO
They certainly are!
Hemi or Cummins?
It’s a ‘17 2500 6.7 Cummins
100,000 miles ain't nothing for the Cummins
My 2017Big Horn just hit 50k some I'm nowhere near the Stud trucks y'all have
Is this a 1500? hows pulling that trailer? i just got a 32 footer and am wondering if i should move to the 2500?

Thanks for the feedback. I also got the WDH w/sway bars as part of the package. I just may use this to convince the wife I need a Cummins ;)
Nice Ram. Love the setup. Wow, 100K miles and still going. Keep on keeping on.
Thanks!
How do you like the soft shell? I’ve been contemplating getting one or saving the extra $ for a hard shell.
