Just looking for things to buy ....

Got a set of full widow coverings and back seat pet protection for my birthday, from weather tech. The poor truck just sits every week outside, so I wished for custom fit full set window coverings, and the DW included the back seat covering for when I haul my German Shepard around. I am impressed with the weathertech products.
 
Installed some goRhino RB-20 running boards (essentially 2nd gen raptor knock offs; https://www.gorhino.com/rb20-running-boards). Install would've been fairly straight forward but spun my wheels with the wrong sized hardware for a bit. Got them for under $300 shipped on autoanything.com. They are all galvanized steel with a textured black powder coat finish. They seem sturdy enough but definitely flex a bit under my weight (210lbs). Based on GoRhino's page these boards fit most of the 4th gen proper 2500 crew cabs. I like the low profile look and minimalist branding.

I just installed a bed rug and tailgate rug, Weathertech in-channel window visors, Weathertech front/rear molded splash guards, some new license plate frames and a fresh coat of ceramic/hybrid wax.20200511_122635.jpg20200513_095056.jpg20200513_095358.jpg20200512_084314.jpg

Its cool how the Bilsteins match your paint.
 
Getting the new truck setup for our camper. Ordered Torklift tie downs and 30K Magnum hitch. Front tie downs are installed now. Need to install hitch and then the rear tie downs. Also plan on getting Mopar mudflaps, exhaust tip, Weather Tech window visors and probably a hood air deflector. Seen another mounted a tinted one on their white truck. Looks pretty decent. Threw in a pic of my previous truck with our camper on it. Looking forward to getting it on the dually after hauling it around on the previous SRW.

Got the hitch installed yesterday. Only took about 3 hrs. Little extra time was spent making sure bumper was even on both sides after putting back on. Turned out pretty good. Surprisingly the bumper is very light. And all the wiring in it goes through 2 large plugs on the driverside. Makes removing it quiet easy.

Hey, can I ask you why you went with this dual hitch? Basically, what this do the OEM one didn't?

I will be hauling an Arctic Fox 990 camper on my truck. In order to haul anything behind the truck with the camper on, you need to run a supertruss that extends your hitch tongue weight out past the end of the camper. If you don't have a camper, there really is no need to put a hitch like I did on you truck. The factory is more than sufficient to pull most travel trailers, boats or whatever you plan to tow behind you using the hitch. I flat tow my Jeep behind us at times and will eventually be getting a trailer for the Jeep. But I can also haul out bikes on a bike rack or maybe a cargo basket. With just the factory hitch, that isn't possible with a full size camper on it. Hope that makes sense.

Makes sense. I don't know much about bed campers. Thanks!

What LED is that below the tailgate?

Is it stop or backup (or both perhaps?)
 
Hey guys what is everyone buying or looking at to buy, just in general and for your trucks...

Thinking we could all share what we are buying right now...


Please share
I have a Tradesman and I just installed the factory subwoofer that I bought on ebay.. Wired a small Hifonics amp. Thor 500.2. This amp is meant for SXS (side by sides) but I felt it was a perfect application for this small sub. I am thinking about getting the Kicker Key180.4 to power all the kicker speakers I installed over a month ago.
