What did you do TO your RAM today?

I went with distressed flag!

Could not stand it any longer. Installed 35x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grappler tires.
Truck is not clean, work, kids and rain have prevented a wash so maybe a good clean picture soon.

That's not clean? LOL

Made my receiver holder. I thought about cutting up the under floor storage boxes to fit it under there but i think this is going to work better anyway.

Switched out the dull interior lighting with some new LED's. Its amazing with the technology they put in these trucks nowadays that they wouldn't make interior LED's standard.

I’m a bridge troll man, I couldn’t stand having that bright of light in my cab.

+1 that. I put red filters over the interior lights of my last truck because I couldn't stand the harsh lighting during the evening. I wanted to maintain my night sight as much as possible and bright LEDs don't help with that. I keep a flashlight in my pocket for needing to look around for anything.

Impressive!

Got my bed rack and bed lined with Raptor liner. Time will tell how durable it is but it was very easy to shoot and looks great so far. Went for a pretty fine texture.

Its really not as bright as it looks in the pic.... plus they only really come on when the door is opened. I don't drive around with them on. Although I have also converted my entire house over to 5000K LED's and painted all the trim gloss white, Maybe I do like things a little brighter.

Your house is my nightmare. It took me forever to find dim enough bulbs for the lights in my house at night.

Ordered my A.R.E Z series shell today and finished up the wiring in the bed for it. I'm not impressed with the way most of those dealer install guys hook up wiring.

Do you know if the cap will open with the proximity key unlock at the tailgate?

Since the shell keyless entry is wired into the truck door locks/unlock and I'll be able to use my truck keyfob, I'm guessing maybe so but can't say for sure. When you walk up to the truck can you hear the door locks unlock, if so again I'm thinking maybe so. I tapped into the door lock/unlock wires under the driver's step trim.

So I just went out to look at mine and see what happens. It sounds like the proximity key actuates the lock, but it's a little hard to tell. One thing I did notice, the tailgate seems to lock/unlock independently from the doors. I had the key on me so my guess is that the tailgate may be opening but not actually unlocking. I didn't notice any way to change the lock settings from the head unit but you may be able to with alphaobd.

Another could be that you just need to use the fob or touch the door handle. It's not near the end of the world but I'd love to just have it work via the tailgate. I'll be curious to hear your feedback on the Z series, I've been looking at the revo but I saw a video where the lock didn't look at all secure, which isn't great.

Truxedo Sentry CT roll up bed cover. I like how low profile it is. I hope it holds up and I like the matte/cloth type finish.

6000k in the garage... and lots of it..

In the garage is one thing if you need the light to work. I would do that if my garage was big enough and just have light switches, one for "normal" usage and another for working on stuff.

Finished up de-chroming with new grill lettering. Sorry about the sunlight and shade.
